Need to add July to this thread's title, Ursula. Or maybe just make it 'Summer' ?
Colocasia 'Blue Hawaii' loving the rain; about a dozen plants in this pot, so the leaves are small. Hedychium 'Dr. Moy' smells so good! Fragrance, pretty foliage, beautiful flowers, nice color. I think this is my favorite garden plant. Did not have time to 'groom' this flower head before taking the pic as I was being pursued by a hoarde of mosquitoes.

The battle for mangoes is over. I capitulated and picked all the remaining fruit, as the squirrels had resorted to dirty tricks. Gnawing the unripe fruit while it was still hanging on the tree! Finaly a shot of Peacock Ginger that shows the flower color better. Curcuma with its pretty little purple flower, this one is nearly done.

Heliconia 'Lady Di' is loving all the rain we've had. One flower has what looks to be a seed developing, see the deep blue color on that shiny dark pod? Red daylilies are on their 3rd round of blooms - they love all the rain, too!
