Hi all,
Hope everyone is having a great summer. Here in southern NH we're still in drought conditions. Water bans are in place across counties in NH and MA. I suspect next spring's flowering shrubs and trees will show the stress from this year as most plants are making next years blossoms now including dogwood, azaleas, magnolia, roses, rhododendrons...etc.

We've been harvesting lots of tomatoes; finally. Seemed to take forever to get tomatoes and peppers this year.

On the daylily front, I received 'Not Just A Pretty Face' from Dreamscape Daylily Gardens in NC I highly recommend this LA seller. Here's a quick youtube video opening the package.

Also added a couple new plants to the bee garden -
Queen of the Prairie (Filipendula rubra 'Venusta')
Cutleaf Coneflower (Rudbeckia laciniata)
Quilled Brown Eye Susan (Rudbeckia subtomentosa 'Henry Eilers')
