What's a pretty medium sized bush?

I need to replace our current ones. I'd like a floral type bush....not just a green thing. The one we have now use to bloom to this amazing red color in the spring. My husband then sprayed it accidentally and killed it. Don't really want to do the same....as he's always disliked mowing around it. Suggestions? We live in Eastern NE.

Ivy stole my answer i love spireas they are beautiful.
Reply:Spirea bush, it comes in several colors, doesn't have big messy leaves and can be kept neat with trimming, best it blooms most of the summer with maybe a short breathing period. Good luck!
Reply:I absolutley love King George Heather. It blooms in late winter with small bell shaped flowers. It's an evergreen shrub with lilac colored leaves (mine is) that provide color all year long. It's about 15" high by 15"width. It's cold hearty and should be planted in full sun area.
Reply:The butterfly bush is always fun...
