Thanks all. Yes, Vi, I was totally getting wet and three inches taller from the mud on my shoes. LOL I haven't been able to put mulch around the thirty I planted last and it is so muddy from tilling and digging the holes.

Vi, I've been told that Rapture is Dr. Suess and they sure look the same here.

If you need a quick break from the rain, come on over. The heat from last week has broken. Today they forcasted showers, which we desparately need, and it's sunny, warm, and now a cloud in sight. Linda

Ada, your pictures are gorgeous. It is so nice to see such healthy pretty brugs. Guess they are liking your rain. I have a seedling Versa Peach X Pink Beauty, with a couple open and more buds coming. It is a very large flower, 12" from where the bulge begins to bottom of bloom, and 7" across, but very short tendrils. I can't take a picture, the card is full in my camera and for some reason I can't erase the photos. I have done it before but this time can't seem to do it. I am going to Omak in a couple of hours, I will take the camera and try to get another card. It is an OlympusCamedia D-40Zoom and not user friendly or else I am just too stupid to operate it successfully. I have had it a couple of years. Donna

WOWo what great pics Ada.

So is your Maya white? Mine is peachy. Is the color affected by its home?

SE Arky, United States(Zone 8a)

Today is the day to find missed threads. Ada, gosh, your brugs are to die for, I cannot imagine having that many blooms on one plant!! I'll be your garden smells good enough to eat. You certainly have a green thumb...

San Antonio, TX(Zone 9a)

Ada, your brug garden looks beeeeeeeeautiful! Can't wait to see the Maya you sent me bloom. The only brug I have that has a bud is the one I call "Old Faithful." I thought maybe it was Dr. Seuss, but the blooms are gold, not yellow.

Herbstein, Germany(Zone 5a)

Ada, the pictures are beautiful! I bet, that your garden is filled with fragrance.

Westbrook, ME(Zone 5a)

Gosh Ada, your plants look fantastic! That Maya is awesome!

GOD's Green Earth, United States(Zone 8b)

Absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for all the great pix, Ada! I'm sending the sunshine dance your way...Gretchen :)

San Jose, CA(Zone 9a)

ahelms....looks like a dream come true!! Congratulations! Wish I were in your backyard to see and smell them!

Chariton, IA(Zone 5b)

Beautiful pictures Ada. Wish I could take a walk through your gardens. Don't want to sink in to my knees though. Is it still raining?

Kannapolis, NC(Zone 7b)

Thanks all.
Kell, my Maya blooms turns peachy. On the first pix you can see the peachy ones. The second pix of Maya, the blooms were new and hadn't turned.

Shirley, I'd love for you to come walk thru my gardens but you are right about sinking to your knees. LOL More rain today and tomorrow. Somebody please turn the water off. LOL
My plants in pots are drowning even with all the holes in the pots. They don't get a chance to drain before the next down pour. I'm moving some of them back into the hot greenhouse until the rains stop.

Chariton, IA(Zone 5b)

It keeps threatening to rain here, but we are only getting a sprinkle now and then. The flower beds are beginning to get dry now. I'm sure there is plenty of moisture under the surface. Our forecast is calling for overnight rains. Will just have to see. I don't want it to start and not quit like it has been for you.

San Antonio, TX(Zone 9a)

Same here, Ada. I noticed today that 2 of my new daylilies have turned to mush from the rain. Just too much of a good thing.

SE Arky, United States(Zone 8a)

I'm having the same problem, big time!! I just took a trip through the garden and removed 6 plants, not brugs, that drowned, they were gooie, soggy, yucky and slimy. I only have three brugs in the ground at this time and they are okay, I'm so glad I haven't put any others in the ground yet, it rained off and on last night and off and on today, with thunder, yada, yada, I sound like a broken record...

Herbstein, Germany(Zone 5a)

How is your garden today Ada?

Chariton, IA(Zone 5b)

Hope you are pretty well dried out in NC. I could just picture you in your mud boots trying to slosh around in your flower beds. Your pictures were so pretty, I just can't imagine how hard it must have been to watch all of your work go floating down the street.

Kannapolis, NC(Zone 7b)

Monika, the garden is good and wet. LOL

Shirley, this has been such a weird year. I hope this is the last year like this one or I'm giving up growing anything. LOL
