Great pics, WNY. My heliopsis isn't quite open yet. I also see some scapes on my daylilies. Hpoe you aren't getting too wet!

Buffalo, NY(Zone 6a)

Thanks, Lucy!!

We are about an inch and a half behind "normal" rainfall this year, which seems to have been perfect, so far! Nothing rotten or mildewy!!

How're things out west your way?

Huron, OH(Zone 5b)

Dry for the moment, it rained earlier. The humidity has gone up too! It was cooler yesterday with the wind off the Lake.

Willie that's a ladybug larvae.

Flowers look great.

Buffalo, NY(Zone 6a)

Thanks, Jen!!

For the ID, too ..... I never knew! Those are awesome little buggers! Voracious eaters!

It's been a gentle rain, off and on, here since around 11:30 this morning. Much needed rain!! I have been watering everyday .... but today!!

Hence, all the pics .... I am finally getting caught up on editing as well as some much needed thread ketchup and mustard!

Marilyn, thanks for the info on the Chinese Foxglove. I'm not so sure, now, that's it's a must have for me. I like them to stick around for a year or two, ya know?
