|
My yard is a mess all the beds need weed the eatter and I got some of the hay mowed on my day off but it looks like crap as I had no time to rake it .
The grass is outgrowing my mowing.
This is just a few plants as the mosquitos attack all day long.
The Tree Rose is blooming again
The Hibiscus is blooming and the grasshoppers love it as you can see.
My cigar plant is realy solid blooms today.
The Mexican Petunias finally is putting on a great show.
The Candle Stick Tree has grown so much.
This is how many blooms the Angel Trumpet has that will open tonight.
Some of my yard at a distance.
The White Ginger is finally getting blooms and they smell sooooo good.
This Texas Star Hibiscus it so tall and wonderful.
Last but not least is my Moon flowers that will open.

Glenda with all those gorgeous blooms in your garden I'd just shut my eyes to the weeds and enjoy them in all their glory.

You have such a variety in your garden! I planted moonvine for the first time this year and I just love it.
