Certified ExpertA.That sounds like, either a weeping dwarf mulberry, or dwarf weeping cherry. They can both develop strange, twisted branches. Here is an article on weeping cherry:https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/trees/weeping-cherry/weeping-cherry-growing-tips.htm

October 4, 2017A.We have not been able to identify the plant in the images.
It does not appear to be a Lotus plant.I would suggest you take a leaf sample to your County Extension Office.
Here is a link to help you locate the nearest office.https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/extension-search/
I would also caution you on the proximity that this plant is growing to your home. You mention it is fast growing, you may want to remove or relocate this plant so you do not have issues with roots near your foundation.

Bayville, NJQ.Bushes Buds not flowering
I have several bushes that have been flowering all Summer but as soon as it turned October, they’ve stopped blooming. They’re just buds. Some have dried up and fell. It makes me sad coz they’re healthy bushes. I’ve been watering regularly and feed them miracle grow mix. The weather has gotten a bit colder with it now being in the 50’s at nite and in the 70’s to 80’s in daytime. So it’s not that cold. Ok we have had a few days of cold weather in the 40’s at nite and 60’s in daytime but that was just for a few days, it’s warmer now. Does anyone have a clue? I live in South New Jersey, close to the beach. I don’t know what kind of bushes they are, I’ll upload some pics.

Certified ExpertA.A drop in temperature, even for a short period, can definitely cause this. I don't see this as an issue for concern. Just keep an eye on the plant for anything unusual.

November 17, 2017Q.Outside plant (large)
I just noticed two leaves that have a large spot growing on them. The spots look more white than brown and it just started developing two days ago. Help Unable to send photo

November 17, 2017A.A white powdery appearance on leaves is usually caused by powdery mildew fungus:
https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/plant-problems/disease/get-the-cure-for-powdery-mildew.htmIf the spots later turn brown, it is most likely something else. What it is would depend on what plant it's growing on and the particular appearance of the spots.
