An Oldie, but a Goodie Spirea or Spiraea. This is the old-fashioned variety affectionately known by human oldies as Bridal Wreath. These shrubs resemble pictures of Spiraea × vanhouttei, but I can't claim to know for certain what variety the pictured shrubs belong to. Forest Hill Cemetery, Ann Arbor, Michigan May 4, 2012 (nex5n)
D124-2012 Spirea or Spiraea. These shrubs resemble pictures of Spiraea × vanhouttei, but I can't claim to know for certain what variety the pictured shrubs belong to. That variety sometimes is described as 'old-fashioned spiraea', or Bridal Wreath, to invoke the old-fashioned common name for it. On this day, the bushes all appeared, at a distance, to be in full bloom. Up close, one could still find unopened buds. Forest Hill Cemetery, Ann Arbor, Michigan May 4, 2012 (nex5n)
D124-2012 Spirea or Spiraea. These shrubs resemble pictures of Spiraea × vanhouttei, but I can't claim to know for certain what variety the pictured shrubs belong to. That variety sometimes is described as 'old-fashioned spiraea', or Bridal Wreath, to invoke the old-fashioned common name for it. Spiraea inflorescences are variously described as dense panicles, umbrella-like corymbs, or grape-like clusters. Each individual blossom in the cluster has five-fold radial symmetry apart for the stamens which, always numerous, vary in number and arrangement. The small dark anthers are borne on long filaments, giving the blossoms a freckled appearance. Forest Hill Cemetery, Ann Arbor, Michigan May 4, 2012 (nex5n)
D124-2012 Spirea or Spiraea. Family Rosaceae Native to the Northern Hemisphere. The cemetery was awash in white spiraea bushes. They seemed in keeping with the old-fashioned feel of the cemetery layout and the park-like atmosphere. These shrubs resemble pictures of Spiraea × vanhouttei, but I can't claim to know for certain what variety the pictured shrubs belong to. That variety sometimes is described as 'old-fashioned spiraea', or Bridal Wreath, to invoke the old-fashioned common name for it. Forest Hill Cemetery, Ann Arbor, Michigan May 4, 2012 (nex5n)
D124-2012 Spirea or Spiraea. Family Rosaceae Native to the Northern Hemisphere. There are many varieties (species, hybrids, cultivars) of this genus that are grown as ornamental plants, mostly shrubs. These shrubs resemble pictures of Spiraea × vanhouttei, but I can't claim to know for certain what variety the pictured shrubs belong to. That variety sometimes is described as 'old-fashioned spiraea', or Bridal Wreath, to invoke the old-fashioned common name for it. Forest Hill Cemetery, Ann Arbor, Michigan May 4, 2012 (nex5n)

These shrubs resemble pictures of Spiraea × vanhouttei, but I can't claim to know for certain what variety the pictured shrubs belong to. That variety sometimes is described as 'old-fashioned spiraea', or Bridal Wreath, to invoke the old-fashioned common name for it. I like to see this shrub pruned, as here, leaving some long branches that arc and even droop down to the ground. Forest Hill Cemetery, Ann Arbor, Michigan May 4, 2012 (nex5n)
D124-2012 Spirea or Spiraea. Family Rosaceae Native to the Northern Hemisphere. There are many years when blooms on a mature spiraea bush can be rather sparse. This was not one of them. This is possibly Spiraea x vanhouttei or 'Bridal Wreath'. Forest Hill Cemetery, Ann Arbor, Michigan May 4, 2012 (nex5n)
