Almost no rain in July. The water girl is getting tired! Happy August gardening friends. (Shouldn't complain about little rain. There are so many places that are much worse off. @Kachina624 knows this and others in arid climates. The trend seems to increase every year. I have a brother in interior British Columbia and they are experiencing the worst fires in 56 years. Count your blessings right?)

@Lilysmom ~ Beautiful, as always! Your bee balm looks great! Ours is just about done blooming but the bees are still loving it. I especially like the flagstones with (is it moss) growing between the stones. I would love to have a neighbor like you!

@Lilysmom Spectacular just spectacular. Your gardens should be featured in a magazine.
Note to St Francis - can you please bring some rain..

@Lilysmom We had. 96" of rain yesterday which was probably about 1/3 of our annual rainfall to date.
Your picture are so beautiful with great clarity. What sort of camera do you use? Please don't tell me it's a phone.
