Dwarf Flowering Almond

Does anyone utilize Dwarf Flowering Almond 'Prunus Glandulosa' in their cottage garden? I tend to think this is a pretty under-utilized shrub, but the flowers are so sweet they lend themselves to that "cottage" feel. It is one that I would not be without. I don't see it in circulation at the nurseries too much and I'm not sure why. It gets to be about 4' wide by 3' high in my garden and looks great all year long. It sends out a few suckers, but I dig them up and share them at plant swaps.

Zone 4-10, full sun and can take pretty dry conditions.

It flowers at the same time as daffodils.

After the bloom it just fades into the background as a filler. It's in the upper-left corner of this picture.
