Philadelphus flower close-up.

A beauty....

The whole shrub always looks wonderful in full bloom - I should look at the individual flowers sometimes. Looking at the adverts on the right - this looks like 'Belle Etoile'!!

It reallyis beautiful!

wow!!

That's what happens when you get close-up and personal, Motinot!!! I didn't realise how lovely each individual flower was.

Thanks, Pp. :-))

Absolutely! Glad you take time to look now, Homebird. :-))

Wow I've never noticed how beautiful this shrub is close up either, great picture:-)

Thank you...I've seen the double flowered one now - I'd love to have that, but I can't. :-((

It is Belle Etoile, used to grow it in the Midlands, too big for our garden, it was a favourite of mine delicious perfume......

Looks like an hibiscus, why can't you have it Barbara running out of space,lol, you need to get that shoe horn out again :-)))

It would have to be an even bigger one than the larger of my two, Simbad! They're not small shrubs, even tho' I keep mine pruned.....
