We were gone a couple of days and came home to spider mites on some of the brugmansias. In the foreground, a couple of smaller brugs that have already lost their leaves to the mites. I've doused them with Bayer's 3-in-1. They're already putting out tiny leaves along the branches.

I had stuck Eternity in back of the bed because it had already bloomed twice this season. It was covered in buds and no mites. So I dragged it out and waited for it to bloom again. The limbs are spindly because I had withheld fertilizer due to the intense heat we're having. This morning the side yard smelled like Heaven! Behind Eternity and ready to bloom is Kyle's Pink. I got it as a cutting and this will be the first time for blooms.
