Thanks Janett and Sidney......I feel bad that I've not had much time to comment/post to people here but between his Grad, the new veggie patch, and my parents' house (had a devastating fire and is just about rebuilt now) this summer has been and will be busy (moving them back in)

(This is the lily "Latvia". If I was naming it, I would have called it "Paprika".)
Pleasant weather this morning. Did about two hours of weeding. We had almost seven inches of rain - according to my weather gage. A record for our area.
All is well in our immediate area. Daylilies are hopping, as are the coleus plants and lilies.
Here is a Chinese Temply Lily - the are so fragrant whne you are weeding. LOL
LOL - they are pretty.
Beautifull flowers.
Sunny

Janett after seeing you porch I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't start speaking Swedish with a southern drawl.
I'm back to watering my garden twice a day. May rain Sunday.
I am in love with all these lilies.

Se eds & Janett, are those 'worms eye' views? LOL. Both are very pretty.
We are now coming out of a 36 hour cloudy spell, the sun is shining again. Just in time for the long week end.
It's now 72 F with light west winds. May get to 82 today.
We had a vivid lightning storm overnight, woke me up. Sarah was cowering next to my bed, again.
We got a half inch of rain, just enough to set the grass seed next door without washing it all into my garden. Mother nature went easy on us this time.
Little Leaf Linden flowers.

Nopp Andy. Didnt have to crawl on my knees for that pic. Here is the whole plant.
Janett
I will Andy, love the wildlife forum. Wish I had a camera this morn. Had a teensy bug with antennas longer than it's body sitting on a daylily. I'm thinking katydid. That's a nice light yellow daylily.
I've been much more aware of bad weather now that I have friends in all states. I too hope everyone is out of danger or not inconvenienced.
Congratulatios to the graduate! I know how exciting and full of pride we are when our kid(s) graduate.
Janett, I love the fence and planters. I've never seen anything like it!
Sidney LOL over the southern remark!
Beautiful flowers everyone!
82*. slightly sunny and getting mugggy. Had more thunder than rain which may be a good thing because we're close to being mushroomy and moldy.
Here's Aurura Raspberry after a nice rain.
Nice colors in that picture, Billy. What is the stuff with the fine leaves?
Well I started July's thread and hope you will alljoin me here http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/621260/ and post everyday. We can always start a new thread. the cost is very reasonable.

It looks like another day at or above 100F. I think it is going to be a hotter summer than last year.
This picture will show you how hot it is. That plastic thing is a container that a cake or cookies came in. I was using it to hold a bunch of smaller pots, then I took the pots out yesterday and set the plastic container off to the side. It was perfectly round yesterday. This morning, it was deformed. All I can figure is that it melted or shrank in the heat. I have never seen that happen before. BTW, I have plants in pots right near here and they are doing fine, but it does explain why I have to water some of them almost every day.
