We finally got a break from the heat and humidity. It’s only been in the 80’s the last two days, with a breeze! It feels like fall already. But I can’t be fooled. I know we have at least 2 months of hot weather before it cools down for fall. We have enjoyed the last couple days though!
Here’s a Morning Glory I found growing on a cedar tree.
I finally got some blooms on the flowers on the front porch.
A very pretty pink flower. I’m pretty sure this is a Cosmos, but the plant take disappeared. Unfortunately, this pretty pink flower met a horrible death in a laser sword fight.
Here’s it’s pretty pink self in the house in a glass bottle brightening my house. I have to say, I almost cried when my son brought it to me. Yeah, the some son who had wielded the laser sword.
End of edit…..
My daughter trimmed the big, white butterfly bush for me. It only had a couple of blooms left on it.
She did a good job trimming all the branches she could reach.
My husband finished the top part when he got home. I’m told it will bloom again this year after trimming. This is the first year we are trying it.

That pretty pink flower is a zinnia. If you save the middle when it dries you can plant the seeds for more next year. They are a wonderful summer flower…We had many accidents as my sons were growing up in the yard…now those are fond memories!
You never know where Morning Glories will show up.
I am interested to see if the Butterfly Bush reblooms. I've never grown them so….
I'm sure you'll get more of the zinnias…and I'll be looking to see what your butterfly bush does as well!
Thanks for sharing at the Tuesday Garden Party.
