I never had those rice dumplings , never saw them before either

There's a first for everything.
They are tasty and I encourage you give it a try should the opportunity present itself.

My grandmother remembers back in the old country as a young gal, she'd help hand out a pair of these leaf wrapped lunches to each field worker when Dragon Boat Festival came around.

These Zongzi are actually available locally all year round since there is a significant population of ethnic Chinese living in the Greater Vancouver region.

I was going to post a few pictures of my June blooms but this post would be too long.

Since you are a fine balcony gardener I will post this wild Irish Poppy that thrived at the side of my home. I don't know where it came from but I like it.

i use to have a garden full of poppies back in 2015-2016 , they always atracted a lot of bumble bees in the garden .
These Irisch popies are called fake poppies in Dutch https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papaver_cambricum .

I wasn't aware of the large Chinese community in Canada, i know certain cities in the states have chinatowns . We have people from all over the world here in Holland, and still i have never seen those before , and i do love Chinese food :)

the spicier the better

Interesting, I'd like to support my local Bee Hive keeper by having some flowers favorable to bees. The last few years were noticeably lower bee counts.

You know a good Chinese restaurant when you often see a restaurant crowded with Chinese customers. Vancouver has been a multicultural mosaic, having enclaves of distinct ethnic groups. It's the closest thing to travel except you never have to leave the country.
