My Faithful Oakleaf Hydrangea is full of blooms. I think she is the "Queen of my garden".
I have been trying for years to grow Shasta Daisies from seed...with no luck. I finally did it! This is my first bloom. Yeah!!!
I have bought several from the nursery only to have them die ~sigh~
Mr. Fly seems to like it too.
This is the first year I have tried these Lemon Zest Petunias. I hope I can keep them blooming during the heat of the summer. I usually don't have much luck with Petunias when it gets hot.

LOL rain dance. Be careful what you wish for! We are wanting it to stop here! Our backyard is a swamp in one area!
I don't think anyone has luck with petunias once it gets hot, Tracy! I ordered a hydrangea and it's already bit the dust. I don't seem to have luck with them. Nor do I have much luck with hardly anything from seed. So pat yourself on the back, girl!

Tracy, your oakleaf hydrangea is gorgeous! We have several of them too and they are just about to be covered in blooms. I've found that not many people know what those are. They are missing out!
your flowers are all so pretty!!
That oak leaf hydrangea is spectacular! Don't feel bad about the petunias, they all fizzle in the heat of summer!
Pretty sis!
I'm in love with those petunias! I've never seen that variety before. I love the yellow throats. I will look for those at the nursery the next time I go.
Hi Tracy, when our rain starts, it doesn't know when to stop!
Your flowers are lovely. Hope you have a great weekend.

Let's both do the dance. We are dry over north of Dallas, too.
Hi Tracy! It's true...I'm popping over to tell you that I am a teacher. :) This year I'm not working because we've been traveling to 7 different colleges for auditions with son #2. It has been fun.
I am a special education teacher. This fall I will co-teach 4th and
5th grade reading and math. Woo hoo! What district are you in? I got my Masters at ETSU.
Your flowers are lovely Tracy! I love the hydrangea & have always wanted an oakleaf....yours is gorgeous! I'm wishing for rain too because I need to go out & water!
I would send you some of my rain, but we are just getting enough. Last year we had WAY too much. Weather is a funny thing!
Tracy your garden is so beautiful! I have no luck with my flowers lately. Sigh.
Blessings sweet friend.

Hey!! I'm nudging you...you are out of school now, right?
Hi Tracy-
Your garden looks beautiful.
Hurricane Alex felt like we had all been doing a giant rain dance!
There is just no comparison to the benefits of rain water, right?
Enjoyed visiting,

Loving your Hydrangea and love your backyard! I am sure you are looking forward to the sunshine!!
My oakleafs are the queens too. They are drooping now in the July heat. We actually found a volunteer oakleaf and transplanted it. It's growing!!
