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

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?

So pretty!

@Steve-Miller My Hydrangeas did not do well until I moved them to a morning sun only location. They now face east and from appearances, like it.
@Bernard my hydrangeas also face east and have quadrupled in size since we moved in eight years ago.

Color pallette at local National Wildlife Refuge: native Joe Pye weed, purple loosestrife (pretty, but highly invasive), native goldenrod, non-native Queen Anne's lace, cattails.

Nice!
