In the garden, nothing much is happening. The plants are just keeping their heads up. The lilies are about to bloom; the balloon flowers are in bud, and the hydrangea has no blooms visible. They should all keep their blooms and buds in tight until we get past this heat wave.
The hollyhocks, on the other hand, are just amazing! They have moved out to the window near the bird bath all by themselves. They are tall, plentiful stalks and blooming fully.
The perennial sunflower is also magnificent, although it has been wilting mid-day in the sun.
And the zinnias love the heat. They are ablaze with colorful blooms and many buds.
We all need to hang in there and hope for a break in the heat and humidity.
