    Anyone know what this is? It's about 20ft tall and a beauty, flowers all spring and early summer and fragrant. Bark is handsome and constant peeling look. IMG_1710a.jpg

      Silver Surfer, that took you nearly three quarters of an hour :dbgrtmb:. You'll have to stop doing other things and be on here permanently :heehee:

      Perfect I.D. as usual :love30:

        Thanks SSurfer, spot on. I was wondering if it might be but thought it was way too tall and wide to be. Still I think it is a very mature specimen.

        Cheers
