Can anyone tell me O Wise Ones, what is this shrub?

Or Google lens .... when you open Google on.your phone there is a little square on.the tight hand side .... click on that and it gives you the option to take a pic of the plant and it will identify it.
Amazing technology!

If you use phone apps, download the free app PlantNet. You take a quick snap of any plant and it will identify it for you.
I found this particularly useful when I moved house to discover what was growing in my new garden and I use it on country walks to identify plants I dont recognise.

Fatsia Japonica?

Japanese Mock Orange. Lovely scent. Council needs a kick.

Pittosporums are considered to be weeds here, strangely enough. The council likes you to get rid of them. I quite like them but they do spread here. Probably a different strain because the leaves are a bit shorter but similar flowers. Very strong perfume in Summer.

Picture this identifies it as Japanese pittosporum also known as Japanese cheesewood, Japanese mock orange, Australian laurel It also thinks this plant looks healthy 😀 So a pittosporum for sure.

👍, thank you!

PlantNet says Chinese Pittosporum.

Thanks, that certainly looks like it! Scent is spot on, however the flowers are yellow rather than cream - and masses of them!

Could be a yellow Daphne. If it is it, I think that the flowers will probably have a distinctive sweet smell.

Here a much better pic from where it’s spilling over and largely hidden by our ‘jungle’.
I don’t think it can be a choisya - we have 3 of those but ‘ordinary’ ones. It’s fairly well scented.

Hard to tell from the photo, but if it smells divine(!) it might be Rhododendron luteum..

Choisya 'Gold Fingers'

Don’t know, but I think I might want one!

Possibly an azalea but if you post a closer picture it would be easier to make out the leaf and flower shape.
