Not Spring

This bush suffered through the summer and I thought it had died. But a bit of rain and it's started sprouting like it thinks it's Spring.

It’s wonderful to see everything coming alive.

It might just surprise you.

Maybe a magnolia? Hopeful is a good sense!

Survival of the fittest. Amazing how some plants can survive in the hairiest of environments.

Nicely captured.

@amyk Thanks. The background is our garden fence which a previous owner painted black.
@gaf005 @rickster549 @joysabin @kipper1951 @peadar Thanks so much for your comments.
@maggiemae Unfortunately not. It's just a bush that has green leaves and no flowers but no idea what it's called.
