My cowpen daisy is blooming too. The white boneset has started to bloom and my pink moonvine is loaded with buds, opening every night. I love looking every evening to see them open up. The Princess Di clematis has started reblooming. And for the first time, the yellow butterfly vine has blooms!

Stephanie, your bell peppers look fabulous. I had a volunteer come up in my flowerbeds a couple of years ago and got several very tasty peppers from it. Your flowers are lovely. And you have a very attentive cat in the window. :-)
