Flower Friday

There are a row of these growing in the drive way next door. I have no idea what they are. Any ideas? Addition….thanks Jenny who says it’s a Loropetalum.

We had Maddy and Leo overnight. When the kids get older I just leave them and go to bed when I’m ready. We also had the pup which ended up sleeping between Bob and me. Mad and I went shopping and I bought a pattern and material for her to make a dress. She is really keen on sewing and craft and has more style than me.
