MORNING cue_chick and EVERYONE! It's sunny here. They're calling for 103 here today. I'm going to be hugging the air most all day. We've had baseball and soft ball size hail all this week all around me but thank GOD it missed me. Lots of wind damage and rain all around and some news about some tornadoes went out but so far haven't heard of people being hurt. Lots of power went out but back on now. Thanks everyone for the plants, my flowers are blooming all over. and got a UV light to fix my green pond water. Thanks to everyones suggestions. Have a great day. Mekos
Rain, rain and more rain...my pond is now a raging river!! Honest I will send pictures.
Send some of that rain my way, will ya? :)

Oh Ants If I knew how!!
Good Morning Everyone...Don't forget 6 pm new word scramble new plant this one was donated by our one and only Mittsy!!
My Supreme Sultan majestically dropped to the ground from the torrential rains...Never saw it on the stalk but it would have been beautiful. Hoping I don't lose the rest three or four more coming.

Too much rain. I was out weeding for about an hour when it started to rain AGAIN. Things are beginning to rot. I have to empty the pot saucers a couple of times a day. My last tb Iris Diamond Bracelet has 4 big buds, they are beginning to turn brown, I don't believe they will open. I'm sick of it!!!!! I need some sunshine. The Japanese iris are loving it. The pond is overflowing into their planting area. I hope the fish don't go into the grass. They will become varmit snacks for sure if they do.
Oh Thank You Sherri that was so nice of you to say. It has slowed down a bot but still misty and like Mttsy I am not sure what is left of my Irises will show the blooms. The brown is starting to show.Thank You for the compliment too Sherri we have worked hard here I will post before and after pictures sometime.
I noticed your cold frames. I haven't seen those in 30 years or more. I started a lot of plants in mine way back when.
Yeah!! The old days seem to hang on to me!! I love my cold frames...

Good Luck Everyone
Ughh.. official high today here in Palm Coast was 101 F and incredibly humid. My tomato plant is really not liking this weather and is on its last leg. Im hoping to get the last of the tomatoes off of it before it decides to croak.
Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Currently 98 F and rising in Phoenix. We're looking at 108F by Wednesday - yikes!! Even my veggies under the shade structure are crying ;^(

LOL, only things that seem to be reveling in the heat here are the pole beans and the watermelon... everything else it gasping for breath..., including me.. who like an idiot, decided since the front of the house was now shaded from the sun, to weed.... yeah... bad decision.. still in the 90's in the shade, but... flower bed is weed free... and Im abut to have a heat stroke...ROTFL
Kelz
Take it easy, Kelz. You still got a loooonnngg summer ahead of you!!

This is a hard one huh? I had a tough time scrambling it. I'm glad I don't have to unscramble it. Did I say it is again two words?
Yes, it's a hard one for sure. I don't even know where to begin to unscramble these words. It would even be hard if you scrambled each word seperately! LOL The only thing I could get out of it is Coleus. :) I'm sure that someone will be able to figure it out though. It is so nice of you & Mittsy to do this. Thank you.

Well, if no one gets it by Tuesday we'll give you a clue. So glad Polly decided to join the fun, and donate a plant. She has a wonderful garden.
Hi,
It is a hard one .... I'm with you Mittsy it was great to have Polly join in...I'm already working on the scramble...
is that supposed to be one long word or is it two words? I dont even have a clue where to begin. if its two, then Im pretty much S.O.L. because Im not that plant savvy. I barely know common names let alone the proper names of plants... sheesh...LOL
Two words ,
In honor of fathers day...
My Dad always said...
If at first you dont suceed...try, try again.
I would love to see some of the trys!!
Are you here Mittsy?

LOL, like I said, I am clueless about proper plant names.. so trying isnt the issue. I havent even a starting point...ROTFL... I could sit and rearrange these letters all day and would still not see a word in them even if i did manage to unscramble them. I wouldnt know the word even if they magically unscrambled themselves... Id just think it was another nonsensical word...LOL
Ok but you would like the prize!!
ROTFL... Im sure I would
and for the record, ive tried to unscramble it about a dozen times, but....lol
Is anyone else working on it?
ok.. here's my newbie uneducated suggestion...LOL
maybe you could hide clues throughout DG ? Like in other forums? and not big clues.. but maybe small hints like plant size... or color... or zone... or something like that?
anyways, was just a suggestion...LOL... you can tell me to shut up and bug off now...ROTFL
Oh Kelly I love that idea....
I will try that later today as soon as I hear from Mittsy ...are you ok with that Mittsy or do you want me to wait until tuesday?
If I can get 9 people to post that they are trying to figure out the plant I will post a clue somewhere in the garden!!
well, Im one! rotfl
Well, I am trying too. Spelled Echinacea out of it, but then the rest of the letters don't spell a word. Driving me nuts!
