Your neighbor is right.
My parents were always greatfull they lived in a mixed neighborhood and could watch children playing.

I like those kind of neighborhoods, reminds me of my own chilhood. ^_^

Me, too! JoAnn, you've got to paint those ligularias.

Ha!!!! Marilyn, as it so happens I have a drawing started. I will probably finish the painting in late September when the heat comes on in the house so all the papers dry out in my studio. Its really hard to paint in this humidity.
Did you see the 1 Crystal Palace clem behind the Ligues?

Nope...missed it! I had one bloom the other day. Don't forget to show me the painting when it's done!

I just took a picture of the drawing. Its not great quality.I used the wrong camera setting.

Looks like a large painting! Great for a large plant. Here is where my clem should be growing, but since it hasn't, I put MGs there instead...they are enjoying the misty day....

Paper is 22x 33 .or about.

Have a (possibly) last flush on some flowers. I have roses still going, my camera is acting funny so didn't get any clear pics of this one gorgeous mini rose starting to open, you'll just have to take my word for it.

Black eyed stella

Calendula that readily reseeds

I may(hope) get a tuberose bloom in before the season ends

Loving this coleus

Button mum, sorry not very clear, see what I mean camera is acting funny

ROBINDOG is that Luna swirl hibiscus hardy or annual in your area? I grew mine from seed and have gotten many seeds from her and wondering if she will survive in ground in my future zone 5 home.

Alabama sunset Jen

thx

I'm not sure, Dorothy....I just bought it this summer for a dollar...it was listed as a per. at the nursery, but the nursery is a zone warmer than where I live, so I'll have to see what happens.

Just thought I'd a few; first a dahlia

Jen, Allison, Joann, Marilyn and Patty very pretty blooms, love the lilies, hobbit house, the beautiful begonia.
Bill, your noid looks like heliopsis. JMs look gorgeous.
My only JM which is actually my neighbor's discard.

Sorry DNut, lovely bloom. Go on with the show.

nice jm there rama

Yes, Rama, I don't have neighbors like that! Pretty color on that dahlia! I have a lilac that just started blooming....don't know why it took this long, it usually blooms in June......

Leptodermis just started blooming also.......

Thanks guys. Love the lilacs, is this the reblooming variety?

Everything is looking good.

No, Rama, they are only supposed to bloom once, in June...don't understand what happened.

An August-blooming lilac is a gift from the heavens!!!

Enjoy, enjoy !

Thanks!
