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

There are lots of videos on pruning lavender. I kinda like this one:
Link to video@wtg I hope it isn't too late for me.

@rustyfingers Yea, I never knew they needed regular pruning to keep them in top form. I just have a couple of them in pots and am trying to follow her instructions. They鈥檙e doing pretty well.

Ligularia 'Rocket'.
We repainted our bridge and put new slats on it; the old ones had rotted away. It had been between two pines that are at the back of the yard but they got quite large and were overgrowing the bridge. We set it here for now while we figure out its final location.
The birds like to perch on it when they come to visit the bird bath. I might just dig out a few of the plants in that bed and move the bridge in a bit. I had stepping stones in there for access to the interior of the bed. I may just use the bridge as part of that path!

Went for a walk today and found these wildflowers. Santa Fe Phlox. Now I want to plant them in the garden!
@Piano-Dad Pretty flowers, I love the color.

The largest begonia I鈥檝e ever seen!

That is a monster. It reminds me of a similarly sized pot of geraniums that the owner of the hair salon I used to go to manage to keep alive. Somehow he'd get these huge pots into the front of the shop before the frost and he would keep them going all winter. He finally retired last year and sold the building. I wonder where those huge terra cotta pots and the geraniums went...

Schonbrunn castle, Vienna. Home of the Hapsburgs for a couple of centuries. Nice grounds.

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!
