There's no indication in the garden or the air of what's to come today.
Another foxglove is blooming.
It's been a strange summer. Forecast today calls for 99. The heat index will be into the triple digits by lunch time. When the sun sets, the concrete will begin to radiate the stored heat back into the air. Before all that, I've got plans to spend 2 hours in the yard pulling plants, collecting seeds, and hopefully planting a couple of things that I've been watering twice a day in their pots. But first, another cup of coffee.

Your garden is looking beautiful! Survive the heat, the fall is coming.
I had to water the beds yesterday and need to finish up today. Too hot for me outside.
Sorry to hear your still suffering with the heat. The humidity must be a killer. Speaking of killer...late last summer we got our ponds up and running and they are now little eco systems. Before that during the first two years we were building the garden we were eaten alive by mosquitos. This year there are hardly any at all. The birds, fish, frogs etc have taken care of them. Best mosquito repellent ever!
I love the smells in the garden when the radiated heat mixes with the cooling off of the earth. Memorable time to be out......
