Oh, I forgot about the sweet peas because they are down the hill. They are the best ever this year. A pal gave me a packet of seeds and the label said "High Scent". I didn't know if that was the name of the variety or just good marketing. It doesn't matter which because it's true.
My lilies. In one pot I have pale pink, dark pink, dark yellow,orange (just about) and pale yellow all flowering together.
You may notice my poor Buddah who not only got his hat chipd but his head came off. Son and his friends who had been drinking in garden night before knew nothing about it .
Hi Verdun. I think the Daylily I sent pics of but also as mentioned Phloxes are looking really good. Ref that Pot Marigold I have not had them in the garden for many years and only last week i was handed (literally) a couple which I took home in the palm of my hand -- planted them and bingo today first flower. I will let them wander.

Yes, scent. Just now, heliotrope, summer jasmine, roses and honeysuckles. Shame I'm stuck inside looking at the storm!

For scent - my sweet peas are little stars right now too. Cupani and Cathy.
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

The lilies make up for it though
My star over the last few days has to be crocosmia Lucifer. I have waited 3 patient years for any flowers and wow it was so worth it.
