Wow...where did the month of July go? It's been so incredibly hot here (like everywhere else) that it's nearly unbearable to be out doing anything, but there are always weeds to pull, beds to freshen up, seeds to start, pods to collect, and this year, battling with the CROWS! They have been stealing seed pods, eating buds, and even eating the daylilies themselves (as well as coleus, bell peppers, dianthus, irises, and anything else they can get into)
I'm also trying to get all my seedlings planted in new beds by the greenhouse, so haven't taken the time to post. I've been reading everything though, and sure have enjoyed the show that you all have been putting on.
The last of my July blooms:
North Wind Dancer
Friends With Benefits
Swallow Tail Kite (with preying mantis eating a spider)
Parade of Peacocks (I think...many plants from this vendor had mixed up tags, and not all bloomed this year)
Lake Norman Spider
Luna
Ruth Whitten
Radiant Greetings
Ancient Wisdom
Cradle of Bethlehem (new for me, and a beauty!)
NOID (nickname is everblooming yellow; I've had it 15+ years)
Another NOID (not a huge fan of the color, but this one has longish metallic gold teeth that I'm intrigued by)
This one was at 8:30 pm
Will post the other blooms on the rebloom thread...
