Afternoon,
My first post here.
I'm looking to move house but have this shrub at the bottom of my
garden that I really like.
Could anyone let me know whats its called?
mock orange.
it's one of my favorites too.

It's not the mock orange that I'm used to -- Pittosporum tobira.
However, there are other, unrelated plants also called mock orange. One
group is the various species of Philadelphus, which I've never seen
other than in pictures.
