Kimmy, I've had good luck w/ Lazy S, so I hope you'll be pleased.
I have kerria pleniflora also and I love it's overwhelming floriferous bloom (pic #1).
But beware the creeping suckers. You'll have a thicket of Kerria in no time (pic #2).
Mine must be 6ft across. The picture doesn't give you an idea of the density of the canes.
It makes an inpenetrable hedge, if you're in need of such a thing.
If not, you'd be wise to keep it in scale by cutting the suckers periodically.
Otherwise it will devour anything nearby within a few years!
