Mock orange - Philadelphus

Mine has just started! :))

This blooms in stages for me this year Michaela. I have some blooms which are long gone and still many buds.

Lovely. For How long does it bloom ?

Seems like for ever this year. Still have lots of buds. I always thought that it put all the flowers at ones but not this year. Strange year.

something I wish I could grow...so pretty. I was surprised to see that you grow aegopodium...I love the stuff and had a lot of it in my last garden. Especially around the foundation of the house...that and Japanese Spurge with mint and cranesbill...my old girl, Mandy, used to love to pick out a lush spot and flop down for a cool snooze!

I love this plant as well. The smell is intoxicating. As for Aegopodium ...it is very invasive here as well... We are keeping it in check just in this area. It looks very pretty with the variegated leaves. I grow mint as well and now that you have mentioned it they would indeed look great together.
