Early Morning

 

Took some pictures this morning while waiting for my ride to a doctor's appointment. It's hot today. Temperature is 94 with humidity feels like 104. It's summer. It's nice to come out and see the flowers changing every day. I'll soke this up because next season, fall.

Wonder if the asters will repeat bloom if I dead head them again? This is their second bloom. Wish the blooms lasted longer.

Nothing can beat the blooms of zinnias. My seedings are starting to form heads, yeah. This is a store-bought zinnia.

One bloom and lots of berries for the birds on the native honeysuckle.

Deciding whether to deadhead and hope for more blooms or leave the seeds for the birds.

Blooms getting bigger every day.

So many blooms. It's doing well in a container. 

Going to throw out that petunia eventually. I never do well with them. Prefer the mini bells.

Tiny changes every day for the zinnias. I think there's also one or 2 sunflowers.

First bud on a zinnia.

Sunflowers are starting to get taller and thicker. I'm happy with that.

The only surviving nicotiana seedling. It's late blooming but will stay in bloom until frost.

The downward facing lilies are beautiful.

Didn't know dichondra bloom. Maybe that small bloom will dry and give me some seeds for next year. I only need a few seeds.
