The Philadelphus Story

OK, not much story beyond the appalling pun on a film title! But I love the smell this plant makes, and it's common name of Mock-orange is well deserved. Such a shame it doesn't flower for a longer period of time.

I remember making bouquets for the School Summer Fayre when I was younger, and we'd always put in a sprig of Philadelphus for the scent.
