Lots in bloom here in mid-summer


I almost have to pinch myself. It's mid-summer and it's not dry. We had another thundershower yesterday which brought 3/10ths of an inch again.

This is what the garden looks like now.

Info about the metal flower sculpture is here

  3. Oh, what beauty. Mother Nature sure has been kind to our gardens this year. I garden on a hillside that dries out rapidly and the grass normally browns by this time, but this year it is still nice and green, the weeds are too though, so have to keep after them. Thanks for sharing your garden with us.
