Still Seeking Shrub ID — 5 Comments

  1. Thanks to Jolene over at Facebook (where most of the comments came on this entry), I THINK this is a spirea bridal wreath plant. If not, I think it’s something close to that.

  2. I have a spirea bridal wreath in my yard in south central Wisconsin and the flowers on your shrub don’t look like what I’m expecting to see in a month or two. I think it might be a mock orange. I googled images and this came up: http://www.unionagway.com/Plants/Mockorange-Detail.htm

    What do you think? I didn’t see the FB posts so forgive me if this guess has all ready come and gone.

    • Actually, the mock orange was the query that got me to looking at the spirea bridal wreath. If it is a mock orange, it’s an unscented variety. It looks closer to the Buckley’s Quill variety in your link.

    • The key line in the description in your link? “bloom once each spring.” I think that’s it! I guess I’ll go with Mock Orange.

  3. When my bridal wreath blooms I’ll try to take and post a photo with something in it for perspective… (one month almost later.)
