I am fortunate – my brother-in-law mows the property where
sits my house. I have only to trail
along behind with my little electric mower and get the places the riding mower
can’t squirm into. Today I thought I’d
get a little ahead of him and was out early – 8AM - to do some mowing and other
outside stuff.
The other stuff included pulling weeds, watering just a bit, and moving/replacing the heavy stepping stones that form a path in the back.
We are having summer here.
Which means it’s very, very, very hot and humid
I came in when I reached this stage.
IT WAS ONLY 9:30AM!!!
I’m tired of summer now.
Still have few flowers to show off, but here are the ones I
do have blooming now
Texas Star Hibiscus
It’s a mallow but I don’t have a name from it.
It is as big as my hand. (Mallows
and hibiscus are closely related however, a mallow is heartier and although
will freeze in even our winter, it comes back from the root.)
Pereskia grandifolia (Rose Cactus)
Night Blooming Cereus
One more little thing to leave you with –
Don’t laugh – I actually saw someone wearing these at our local farmer’s market recently. OK – go ahead and laugh hahahahahahahahaha!

ReplyDeleteI have 5 buds on mine.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers and yes the heat is miserable! 🥵
ReplyDeleteAnd the heat goes on.
ReplyDeleteI truly am sorry for you, and hope you can escape to aircon.
I love the flowers. And the cowboy sandals are hilarious.
ReplyDeleteMy ankles are sweating just looking about those "boots!" I'm sure glad that our temps aren't like yours since our air conditioner died...
