Gorgeous hib, Jim.

I have a few interesting things going. I made a big hanging basket for a Begonia Odorata Alba this spring. It has an "all white" theme. The variegated liriope was just for textural interest, and here it is blooming with a pretty little white flower looking sort of like lily of the valley. (doesn't smell nice, though, but the begonia is wonderfully fragrant)

I'm a fool for odd flowers, and these corkscrew gingers (costus scabra) are a pretty striped variety I got on a trade.

First time this year, I'm trying out Achimenes, aka Monkey Face pansy (I don't see it . . Shrug! ) I have 3 colors, but all the white ones seem to have fallen victim to the squirrels.
