    It's a lovely bush! Does it have a scent? I've never seen anything like that before.

    I don't remember a scent Droopy, but I'll be sticking my nose into it when I get back to work on Tuesday!
    I had quite a time trying to identify this plant. It seems no one has ever seen one before!

    I like it, I've never seen a white flowering almond before. I knew those leaves looked familiar but the white blooms threw me off.

    Can you take a macro shot of the flower, Netty?
    I like the looks of this plant.

    I'll do my best Sjoerd. My camera doesn't always focus on small blooms!

    Edited to add-I found one more photo that shows the bloom a bit better Sjoerd.
