Thanks Jackie and Karen for the nice compliments on my blooms! It is so relaxing to walk outside and leave all my cares behind. It's been a hectic summer so far!

I have had to move my hanging basket of MGs around again. Hummer feeders went back up earlier than I was expecting to put them up. I don't know if the bird was just a fly by or will be back but I was very surprised to see one this time of year. They usually start coming back in September. I don't think it was the same bird I had all winter. My winter resident went to the feeders first and then the blooms. This bird seemed like it had never seen a feeder before, so it might be a young hatchling out on it's own.

Here are my hanging baskets. The Mixed Ensigns are getting taller, but not a single bud or bloom on them yet. I'm holding out with fingers crossed that they need to get a certain height before the blooms start appearing. I can hope ... right???!! LOL! The other vine I am not sure what it is. It has had one bloom, which I missed, so am not sure. The bloom appeared to be a dark pink but that was after it had wilted. I think the seeds came from Ronnie. Duh! Not a clue really. Ha,ha! I'm getting bad ... just shove seeds everywhere into pots, ground, hanging baskets. And then I forget to label what they are! (Arghhhhh!!)
