Hi

Does anyone know what this plant is called?

http://www.creationfactor.net/misc/DSC00758.JPG

It is a pretty large bush and has a lovely strong perfumey type
fragrance.

I think it's a Philadelphus and possibly P. coronarius.


That looks to be spot on. There's a site here and the right-hand-most pic
under Flowers looks very similar:

Many thanks :-) I'll enquire at some garden centers in the area and see if
they have any..

Regards
