          @AndyD I have a mock orange bush. The perfume is heady. Love it.

                We’re in Canada in a charming little town called Niagara on the Lake. Six block downtown area is lined with flowers on both sides of the street; pots, planters, you name it.

                Beautiful!

                    Empress Wu Hosta. It's huge! I dare say about 5 feet tall.

                    Although it doesn't flower, the ferns next to the Hosta are just as big.

                    I don't have many Foxgloves this year. Only a few plants scattered about the yard. (But I have more Hollyhocks than ever before! Looking forward to them blossoming, one of my favorites.)

                        @RealPlayer Point at it with a stern expression and exclaim with authority, "Tarra, gone!" 😉

                        Sorry, RP, I can't help.

                                I've seen those opuntias in the sandy soils of East Hampton, New York, by the beach. Flowering too. What an unexpected treat!

                                  @rustyfingers said in Bloomscrolling--what's in bloom where you are?:

                                  Ours bloom but they have never fruited.

                                  I think nopales are the "leaves" (maybe they are called "pads") rather than a fruit.

                                      You can eat both the pads and the fruit…if you get fruit. I think the fruits may be pretty small in these eastern species.
