This is my star jasmine. Grows like crazy after the first year or two. Wonderful fragrant flowers in the spring. It's growing on a four foot chain link fence on right. Covers it completely.

Looks like a purple leaf sand cherry, Prunus x cistena. Depending on how hard and how often it gets pruned as to whether or not you would see any flowers.

I'm a bit south of you, but in our wooded area, we have native dogwoods, native honeysuckles (NOT the Japanese honeysuckles, which are invasive), and blueberries in the sunnier areas; high bush can get up to 7'-8' tall, but you can also get half-highs like 'Northland,' which will top out closer to 4', and the straight species is a great pollinator and quite attractive just with smaller berries; low bush will be more ground cover like. American holly is a nice evergreen. Several of these are deer candy, however ... so if you have deer (which I'd be surprised if you didn't ... and yes, moose count) your new shrubs will be browsed ...

i dont recall the name.. but its a horrible weed.. perhaps related to bird seed ... i see the cilantro down there.. you ought to be able to ID it by smell... if you crush a leaf .. you re going to have to figure out how the get the huge weed out without destroying the favored crop ... i might take a tablespoon.. and dig out the cilantro.. et it aside.. destroy the pot media and weed.. refill pot.. and replant cilantro.. if you you really want that rather boring plant in that glorious pot... ken
