its in flower now, has arched stems with hundreds of little white flowers all the way up it, it has tiny little dark green leaves behind the flowers, a bit like stars, no smell, just beautiful to look at, its quite a tall large shrub, abou 6ft high, and wide, thanks for looking.
I have seen a multi floral white shrub I would love to know the name of?
is it pyracanthus (sp)
Reply:Possibly Spiraea nipponica "Snowmound" if it has no scent.
Most of the white flowered summer shrubs are scented (to attract pollinators)
The pyracanthas have finished flowering in the Midlands - mostly looking pretty "dead" now before the berries form.
Osteomeles is an arching shrub with five-petalled flowers but these come in clusters.
Styrax has lots of yellow-centred white flowers in early summer.
Reply:It is most likely one of the Philadelphus', as they are currently in flower. There are a few varieties, but all have white flowers and a strong perfume, and arching stems. They should be pruned by half immediately after flowering, then the growth it puts on will provide the flowering stems for next year.
Reply:abelia?
Reply:could be pyrocantha. are there any thorns? if there arent thats not it.
my best guess is that its some form of viburnum
