What is the name of this flowering bush?

My Mom had one beside the house that had white flowers with rose colored centers.

I’d like to plant a row of these across the back fence.

I don't know the name of that bush but if you can't find out, there are "plant identification apps". Some of them are free apps. ::tu:: ::nod:: I don't have such an app. I just know that they are out there. ::nod::

Nice pic, Scott. ::tu::


My brother just texted me this picture, first ear of the year from the sprouted corn we planted (refer to Page 9 of this thread). Getting tons of tomatoes and green beans now, my sister picked a dozen heads of cabbage for friends and family. Several years ago I bought my dad a Keen Kutter Kraut Cutter and we made sauerkraut that turned out perfectly. But we used about 4 dozen heads then, only planted a baker's dozen this year.

I can't say with certainty, but fairly sure it is a deformity caused by damage from one of the Bigfoot residents in the area.

::hmm:: Deer like to eat sunflowers, people like to eat deer. ::hmm:: Just thinking out loud. ::facepalm::
I'm an old softy anyways. ::nod:: Just acting like a tuff guy. :lol:

Maybe you can scare um off some how. ::shrug:: I used to pull weeds at a fressly planted orchard as a kid. The guy tied little net cloth bags of hair to the newer/smaller trees to keep the deer away. ::shrug:: Not sure if it was human or dog hair though. ::shrug::
