Blooming Flowers

August 11, 2010 by Linda @ Linda's Lunacy

It has been another hot week here in Kentucky! So hot, that I don’t even want to venture outside to take pictures. Not that there are very many flowers out there to photograph. Anyway, I sent my daughter out to take pictures for me, and this is what she came back with.

Some of the Glads she planted are still blooming.

And the 2 Butterfly Bushes still have a lot of blooms on them.

And in the herb garden behind the house, the Feverfew still has blooms on it. I love these little flowers! (um….ignore the weeds, please!)

There is nothing new out there, though. There are only a couple of Hibiscus blooms left, we only had 1 Day Lilly open this week. I’m still very please with all the Jewelweed around. Our roses haven’t had any new blossoms in weeks. I’m not sure what’s going on with them.

So it’s just been a really hot week, where the flowers don’t even want to come out and play!

If you want to see pictures of our vegetable garden, visit Saturday on the Farm.While your there, join the Saturday on the Farm Carnival.

    Oh, I am so glad that I'm not the only one who let's heat keep her from heading out with her camera…I feel like such a wimp! Your flowers look lovely, but I'll bet they'll be glad to see the heat taper off.

    Your daughter did a great job … loved the shot of the Feverfew! The gladiolus is such a pretty one.

    No one around here wants to go outside and play either. It is too hot….Pretty glad and love Butterfly Bushes!

    Goodness, sorry it's been so hot for you. It's been like that for most of the country lately, hasn't it? Some parts more then others.

    I have never seen the light pink butterfly bush before. I have the deep purple kind, which I forgot to photograph for today. Oops. My butterfly bush is still going like gangbusters.

    I hope you get a break in the heat soon. Oh, Love your glads. They remind me of my grandmother. It was one of her favorite flowers.

    Hope you have a lovely day,
    Susan

    […] And, of course, I was at the Saturday on the Farm Carnival, and in the garden. […]

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 3:16-17 NKJV
