Still don't have a clue...

I have been working a section next to a creek that I call my wooded garden. It's very shady but I absolutely love this area ( excluding the poison ivy that also loves my woodland garden! ) The creek makes just enough noise to be heard and it attracts a lot of wildlife. Still hoping to see a bear one day, but none so far. 

I am also trying to incorporate native plants into it. but currently I have mystery plants and they are just starting to bud out.


This one has since opened up and it looks like this:

This one really does nothing more that what you see....lol I would love to know what it is though.

This one can be either a tall shrub or a short tree? lol I was really hoping it was a mountain laurel, but not too confident in that assumption!

Took a picture of it again today and not much going on....

So any guesses?

I envy you your little area. I'd love to have the sound of a creek in the background. Soooo soothing and calming. It sounds like you have an amazing back yard that's full of life.

I wish I could help Sandee but I'm having trouble identifying my own plants in my garden. So much has changed since I left it 12 years ago.
Maybe if you took a sample to your local garden centre or nursery, then they could identify it for you.
As for the bear visiting... maybe put a pot of honey out.
It's all exciting and enjoyable getting to know your garden.
Good luck... waving from Bonnie Scotland ;D

Your own little piece of heaven. But, don't hope you see a bear, cuz it may come upon you when you are checking out your garden. LOL If I was you and I did see one from my balcony, that little pretty garden would just have to grow weeds from that day forward. Can you tell I am a wimp!?!

I am no help sorry.. I also think you should take a sample to the nursery they will soon tell you what it is from that. Happy Gardening and listening to your creek.
