Hello Friends! Its been a while since I last posted. I fizzled out for a while. The heat and humidity has kept me inside.

I scattered Balsam seeds in late spring. They certainly took well and I am amazed at how many colors they have. I have white, light pink, purplish and red.

The red is a rosy red, not deep.

This one looks like a double.

This next one grew really big, I think to compete with the zinnias. It has been my experience that once balsam takes, it reseeds like crazy.

My moonflower finally took off and is growing through everything.

This Blackeyed susan vine must have a structure to climb next year. It also reseeds to the point of weediness (is that a word?)

It is a little cooler here this morning. Wayne got the jasamine cut and I got Pablos hair cut.

I have had success growing hibiscus from seed, rooting lantana and I think the butterfly bushes have taken as well.  The African Blue Basil that I rooted is in the ground and blooming.

Peace and Love.
