In the garden- an update.

4 inches of rain so far this month.

Makes me think of the verse:

"He is like a tree
    planted by streams of water
that yields its fruit in its season,
    and its leaf does not wither.
In all that he does, he prospers."

Psalm 1:3

Seems like some days we do 

have a stream of water in the back yard.

The growing things are prospering.

But the balloon flowers love it.

The Filipendula- Queen of the Prairie love it.

The Hydrangea adore the moisture.

This Stella D'Oro daylily is ready to open.

You can see why this loosestrife

 is called- Gooseneck.

The flowers in a pot nuzzled 

against the hydrangea.

Brilliant Bee balm-

it does attract the bees.

Coneflowers brighten 

this corner right now.

The rampant loosestrife.

Lady Godiva - Yellow

English Marigold

Trying something new- 

I don't have very good luck 

with traditional marigolds.

Some gatherings on the deck cart-

highlighting a begonia from a friend.
So the daily rains continue-
sort of like living in the tropics.
