Bloomscrolling--what's in bloom where you are?

Nice.
I have a 'Miss Molly' buddleia that I thought I had lost after last winter. They tend to die back to the ground in cold winters but the roots usually survive and they will re-sprout come spring. Mine took forever but it's finally grown about a foot. Hopefully it will bloom before summer is over!

Spectacular. The drought has taken its toll here.
But the hydrangeas are very blue (cuz I rake the fall leaves around it.)

Don't know if this counts here... it's the result of a blossom.
My first tomato of the year. I'm teaching it how to play the piano.
It may be small, but it was ultra packed full of incredibly delicious flavor.

Lovely dahlias!
There's a house down the street a bit that has a huge garden full of them. A wonderful cutting garden that I admire and envy each time I walk by. I tried growing them years ago but my yard is too heavily shaded; they like a fair bit of sun. Now I have more sun since we removed a large Austrian pine, but I've devoted the space to fruits and veggies.
Around here the tubers have to be dug up and stored for the winter, or you have to buy new each spring.

The Beebalm looks nice with the Goldenrod squatters (I will leave them where they've taken up residence, they do look good here).
Echinacea is one of my favorites.
After several mishaps and failed attempts, I finally have Hydrangea.
And then this happened! I put the Amaryllis outside for the summer to store energy and it blossomed!! I suspect this may mean no Christmas blossoms from this one.

Those are all so gorgeous! I'll bet your yard is full of bees.
Took this photo of a parkway tree a few weeks ago. Wasn't sure what it was, but eventually figured out it is a tatarian maple. 'Hot Wings'.
It's a stunning tree.

Japanese iris. This is the only one blooming right now.

The heat knocked a lot of plants back but not the pansies. They took off!

I’ve become a huge fan of these Japanese balloon flowers. Not fussy about water or heat and survived winter without issue.

Bernard, your hydrangeas are fantastic! That color!
I have a love/hate thing going with mine. They look great some times, but any little stress (heat, water, who knows what) makes them collapse in to a heap. Winter is always touch and go.
Are you doing anything special with yours?
