Bee balm which all pollinators and humming birds are loving.
Shasta daisy
Gloriosa daisy
Day lilies of several varieties.
Dahlias. I have these planted in lots of places this year and most have their first bloom.
Oregano is blooming and loved by this bug. What is it, David?
Glad to see this day lily. It was a favorite at our house in Columbia and then at the Lodge. Must have come to us from daughter who dug some up when we moved. She had it in at least three different houses before giving it back to me.
Both hydrangea varieties are blooming.
That's quite a welcoming committee of blooms. Gorgeous!
