Donna suggested Chestnut Crab as late blooming. But for me, Chestnut Crab/Ant 
leafs out and blooms abnormally early, then it gets nailed by frost. I've had 
only a couple of crops in 12 years. Suspect chilling hours get into the mix 
somehow. 

I haven't seen Mother mentioned. It is about the latest to break bud and 
bloom of anything I have. Your mileage may vary.
