Guess I can be glad we've had the a/c running the last day or two. But still not much sign of oak pollen here yet. I usually see it on the pool cover and all over the orchid leaves. We had a good, heavy rain shower tonight, too so if there is any pollen, it will all be down out of the air now. Always thankful for rain this time of year.
This rose bud reminded me of Ursula's lovely New Jersey sunrise that she posted a couple of days ago. This is 'Tahitian Sunset' actually.
And today, almost open all the way.
My other annuals are enjoying the warm, sunny days - cooler and cloudy for a few days coming up now, though.
Gorgeous Petchoa (petunia/calabricoa cross)
Pale yellow Calendula make a nice contrast
And of course the variegated nasturtiums 'Alaska Red Shades' are making fabulous leaves as well as the pretty, delicious flowers.
