    I have a row of bushes/shrubs in my front yard that form a sort of barrier/fence line. Unfortunately it does not extend all the way across the front of my yard. I want to rectify this but have been unable to locate this plants identity. It is a very thick, bushy plant with veined leaves and has small white flowers that bloom during the spring.

    The leaves make me think Hydrangea, but there are so many different varieties and different shaped leaves.
    Sorry I can't be more help but maybe searching for Hydrangea will come up with photos of yours.

    Hi Bfrakes81, do you by any chance have a photo showing this shrub in bloom? Seeing the flowers on it might help towards identification, I think. :stew1:

    possible viburnum?

    I don't happen to have a photo of it in bloom. I saw a couple photos of some viburnum species that closely resemble my shrub. Perhaps Viburnum X juddii? I think they also called viburnum fragrant. The white flowers I saw in my Google search looked very similar to the ones my shrub produces while in bloom.
