hot hot hot …

It is definitely hot here.  After a very cold and rainy spring, we are full on into hot and humid.  As in, today is going to be 95 degrees, and tomorrow 98!    Just two weeks ago, we couldn’t go out without a jacket.   But the upside to the sudden heat is the sudden profusion of garden loveliness we get to enjoy.

The hydrangeas have begun to come out too.  A few years ago, we had a hedge of hydrangeas over forty feet long planted on one side of the house.   I absolutely love them.

What’s blooming in your garden?

  3. The peonies and iris are wilting in this heat, as are we! Not ready for summer yet but glad it's not raining... Such pretty blossoms!

  4. The flowers do not know what to do. The weather has been so crazy. However, they are all dying now. Hard to keep them watered enough.

  6. Oooooh! SO pretty, Steph! Our roses bloomed like crazy at the beginning of April but they are fizzling out now. They'll be hit-and-miss over the summer months here - it just gets too darn hot.

    Your flower shots are beautiful - LOVE those light pink roses!!! xo
