Labor Day Blooms

Another heat wave begins with 90 degrees and increasing humidity. About 4 p.m. I went out to the garden bench to see if I could photograph any butterflies. There was not a single butterfly or bird to be seen or heard. I did see some bees in the Liriope in the shade near the hose reel.  I've been watering with the soaker hose twice a week since rainfall is 5 inches below normal. The planters and hanging baskets have needed water twice a day on some hot days recently. Still, I was able to find some bloom and color this late in the garden season.

  1. It's good to see the blooms in your garden. It's so lush in spite of the dry weather. Thanks for taking time to post.
