WW #56 "Name This Tree"

Hi, all! Can anyone tell me the name of this tree/bush? I have two of these in my front yard and I have no idea what they are called. I have been living here for almost 10 years and still don't know the name of these trees/bushes.

They bloom beautiful white "balls" this time of year. And they also have a great fragrance too. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  9. We have those too! Ours are pink, however. I had no idea what they were when we first moved here, so found out their name with some help from my mom, The Master Gardener.

    You have a white hydrangea plant. They're gorgeous aren't they? and pretty popular in wedding bouquets, too.
