Your getting rain? Seems like it is feast or famine with out weather this year. What are the day time temps like, with all the rain?

Cloudy, but no rain. Will be in the 70's today, about 10 degrees cooler. Thumbs up

Days in the high 80's, nights in the 60's. Hotter than normal during the days but cooler than normal during the nights. Daytime humidity is terrible, due to the wetness. Rained again several times today. I'm thinking about building a semp ark.
very, very glad I put in a window ac in the bedroom.

Speaking of favorites, here's one I like a lot (a trade from Lynn a while back). Love the color at this stage, reminds me of some of the Jovi hirta's/

S. Regal in June

Regal is one of my favorites, it doesn't take long for it to make an impressive colony. Mine will look like that as we get to the end of August (our hottest and driest time of the year).
Those are looking great in it's dormant type state.
