kateintuscon ~ do you have any seeds or seedlings of the Texas Mountain laurel? I think it might do well here, as it is hot all summer.

Dawn ~ Good to see you here...my hubby usually kills at least one rattlesnake a year. So far, I have not had to do the deed.

The deer eat my pyracantha so I gave my beautiful 'Cherry Berry' to a neighbor that has a fence around her garden. I have a small enclosed garden, but no room for the pyacantha.

I just got my tomatoes planted last week, as before it was too cold, and hopefully they can get up to size before the extreme heat settles in. Now I did plant my cool-weather veggies late, so hopefully they won't be ruined by the heat.

In this picture the foregound plant is Teucrium marum - Cat Thyme, though not a true thyme it has the properties of a thyme as it is quite drought tolerant and looks nice all year, but it does only bloom in late spring.
