I just moved out of a house in Cleveland Ohio last month, I was renting,

and
the owner doesn't even know what this shrub is when asked. I have pictures
of it at http://www.geocities.com/dannykewl3/shrub/

The shrub has about two and a half inch leaves, and some clusters of tiny
"flowerettes", that started developing a fragrance in early June. The
flowers are white, but some have a tinge of pale yellow. My cheapie

digital
camera doesn't take the best true color pictures, so I tried to color
correct shrub.jpg (the first pic) in photoshop, but may be too green. The
other pics show the flowers picking up color casts, but again the flowers
are white, but some a little yellow. I did some Net research, and found

Amur
Honeysuckle to be close, but the flowers don't quite match up to my eye. I
looked in several stores where plants are sold, and didn't see any that
resembles this. If anyone does know this shrub, how long does it stay
fragrant? If not long, anything else similar that stays fragrant longer? I
just bought a house in Cleveland, and may want to plant this. Thanks much

in
advance.
