Here Comes the "Bridal Wreath Spirea", All Dressed in White

 Bridal wreath spirea is a stunningly beautiful bush with the kind of  white flowers one would expect to see at a wedding. 

I think it's interchangeable with "bridal veil spirea."  

One makes an appearance annually on one side of our front yard.

It's usually in May that we can expect the magnificent white flowers to gently sway in the wind.

She blooms, stays for a short while, and then is just green leaves until next May.

Well, guess what?  It's May and bridal wreath spirea has just arrived.

One night she was all green leaves and in the morning, she was in glorious white bloom.

The bush is just one more wonder to add to an immensely long list of gifts from the Lord.

HAVE YOU SEEN BRIDAL WREATH SPIREA?   DO YOU KNOW IF IT'S THE SAME AS BRIDAL VEIL SPIREA?

Here Comes the "Bridal" Wreath

This is an old house and opening the infrequently raised upper windows is often difficult.

They tend to be jammed to the hilt.

However, after having luck with one of the "sticklers,"  we were able to sleep with the screened window open. 

It was heavenly.

The following morning, I awoke to a sweet and lovely fragrance and wondered where it was coming from.

  Looking out the window and down below, the bridal wreath spirea shrub was covered with thousands upon thousands of white flowers.

It must have bloomed overnight.

What a luxurious way to start the day.

The blooms on this beauty are short-lived, which makes its appearance even more glorious.
