I am in zone 6 but please respond with any shrub. I would like to make a list of gardeners' favorite , easy to care for shrubs. No fuss.

Mike

Mine are

Chamaecyparis obtusa Nana - Dwarf Hinoki Cypress - Grows slow, requires little or no pruning, and tolerates most soils except clay. Full sun or part sun.

Itea Little Henry - Itea - Grows in sun but also likes a little shade. Nice spring flowers , great fall color, Likes damp soil, but once established will grow in most conditions. I can prune easily with hand pruners every few years - Stays about 3 x 3ft.
