Hi Gilbert,
Your picture reminds me of the Silver Bell or Snowdrop bush. They are in
the Halesia genus and I believe that H. Monticola (mountain snowdrop tree) is
the most common. It is native in the mountains of the south-eastern USA and
was introduced in about 1897. I think I saw some nice specimens in Sheffield
Botanic Garden when I was last there about five years ago.
All the best
