Good to hear you’re still getting some rain. Gentle rains are good soakers. No run-off.

We have chances for more showers and storms this week and those will give us a little cooling. Maybe. Waiting for the forecast to come on the news now to find out how much chance we have each day. I was dealing with cat feeding during the evening news and couldn’t pay close attention.

OOOOOOO!!! Love the color of your lilies! We call them Magic Lilies and ours are very dark pink. It’s about time for ours to pop up and I’m looking forward to their splashes of color.

I have some smaller dark maroon ones that are called blood lilies, but they aren’t surprise/magic lilies. I have one hibiscus bush that bloomed beautiful huge maroon flowers, but it hasn’t bloomed for the past two years. Not sure why. The greenery comes up each year but it just doesn’t bloom. Sad...because they really are about 7” across.

I hope you get more rain showers so the weather will stay cooler for you. I’m sure y’all are tired of the heat AND the humidity that goes along with it. Do you have gardenias? I guess that’s my favorite scent and we can’t grow them here. Saw them everywhere in Georgia where we lived for 2 years and fell in love with them.
