Does anyone see evidence of this shrub (Bridal Wreath Spirea, Spirea
prunifolia) being invasive?  I have seen it around Tennessee but usually
near current or old homesites.  I can't really say that it is invasive
though.

I'm trying to find out the identification of this shrub--there is a
large patch of this at the Glendening Preserve at Jug Bay, near to an
old homestead.

I have one in my own front yard and I call it bridal wreath, but it
doesn't look like the shrub of that name in my google image search.
Thanks for helping id it.
