Mock Orange

I haven't really looked yet. I bought some 5 years ago from a small home 
nursery, but he has since died. Those plants were left at our old home.
They were singles. My grandmother had a wonderful double mock orange
at the home-stead. It grew to about 20 feet also.  My father had been
looking for the doubles and said they were hard to come by.
