Warm and humid is ok, better than the hot and humid we had earlier in the week. I really like the cooler mornings to get things done in the garden...before it warms up enough for the bugs to move around. There are so many bees this year on the rudbeckia, cimi's, hydrangeas and clematis, big ones and small ones and they are grumpy. I've been stung 3 times in the last week trimming the daylilies.
Went down this evening and there are still quite a few daylilies blooming. There's a Place had that really cool pattern again, The Levitating Ananuki was levitating, Waterpocket Fold, Metaphysical Shrug and Karma Suture pleated, and more. Nothing is Easy seemed to sum up my battle with the bees...took a few images.
Nothing is Easy, a bud builder that just blooms on and on.
Bark at Me, doing it's thing.
Clear Fork, still pretty after the hot sun, morning dew and fog that didn't burn off until 10am.
Boiled Shrimp, looking really good in the late afternoon sun.
Glass Bead Game, this clump ffo'd July 30th and still has buds to go.
and a diploid seedling on last bloom. I don't work with dips very much, plant maybe 50 dip seeds a year just for fun. This one was one I kept a few years back and it may hit the compost next year when I clean the keep bed it's in. The bright red with large yellow throat stood out today, it's the only thing left blooming in that bed.
