2nd chance, a late blooming runner gave me the opportunity to capture a decent pic this year, for some reason I only got a bud earlier in the season.
I done a survey on this house a little while ago, ready for demolition and design to build a new modern building....
its now gone .....
I took this photography last year but did publish it at the time because I had one of the same subject that I liked a little better. I decided to brush the dust off of this one because it has a different bokeh pattern from my first photograph that I published.

For stunning citrus fragrance in the garden, you can’t go wrong with the mock orange shrub (Philadelphus virginalis). This late spring-blooming deciduous bush looks great when placed in the border, used in groups as screening, or simply as a stand alone specimen plant. They even make excellent cut flowers indoors.
Though it’s not a true orange, its name supposedly derives from the fragrant white flowers which in some varieties are thought to resemble that of orange blossoms. While the blooming of this lovely shrub is short (only about a week or two), you can still enjoy the dark green foliage of mock orange plants.
