hedge

[Belle]

I wonder if anyone know's the name of a hedge that belongs to our neighbour, this hedge is about 3metrs from the side of our house, at this time of year it is covered in creamy white flowers, looks loverly, but is home to swarms of wasps, the flowers don't seem to last THAT long, but for the life of us we can't remember exactly how long, until then we can't open any windows or doors, as the wasps come into the house.

A picture would help [:)]

It could be seringat (

Philadelphus), which is in flower at the moment, smells gorgious  and is teeming with wildlife!

[Tressy]

Or it could be this - Cotoneaster Lacteus. I have quite a few of these in my hedge and they're covered in bees at the moment.

 

 

It'll be a real guessing game unless you post a picture, Belle.[:)]

ok I will a have a go, although by the time I have worked out how to do it, it may well be winter. Hubby is altering curtains at the moment, and getting very irate because we can't open any windows or doors, he is naming the wasps, but that's not the name he is using.

Is living in the country quite what you expected Belle ?

If the hedge is seringat, are you sure they are wasps and not hover flies ? Hover flies are particular fond of it.

living in france is'nt what I expected, I hate it, but unfortunately, this is where I must stay, hubby loves it, leaving is not up for discussion, the choices are go back to the U K on my own, or stay put. I wouldn't have mentioned this RH but you did ask.
