Whew! June was a sizzler and July is following suite. Thank the rain god (where are you?) I have three rain barrels!
The Dragon Lily is starting to bloom. All other lilies have done their dash. Lovely but gone.
I dismantled the two-tiered circle in the front yard and my husband carted the landscaping pavers to the back yard and built a patio. Don't know if we'll ever sit there, but it sure looks pretty with three big pots (purple fountain grass, ginger lilies & callas, one sky pencil holly with petunias at its feet). The ornamental peach is doing well in the center, surrounded by short but gorgeous zinnias and petunias.
The circle is now a simple mound of lantana and an Arizona Crystal "something" evergreen. Much easier to weed, and we all know the weeds never give up even in the heat.
