Showing your sizzling July blooms...

this makes me think of "buttons, buttons, everywhere, and none of them are mine!" favorite line from a Frog and Toad story.lol

Christi, I saw a couple of blooms on your Turk's Cap. I love this plant and have one that I grew from a cutting taken last spring from my dad's neighbor's yard. I noticed tonight that it's loaded with buds!

black footed daisy, mine have fallen...wonder if i should cut them back?

Sorry Steph, not trying to cut into conversation...taking so long to down load photos, I'm just squeezing them when I can :0)

Carolina phlox, my camera hates it, I love it.

Are the "buttons, buttons everywhere" a Globe Amaranth? Pretty pastel color...

Now showing...

now, how did you do that.lol I gave up posting pics! It is globe amaranth, I love the pastel pinks and hot purples. I've been seeing the spider crinums blooming in pastures for last few months..so striking. Even a trumpet popped up in my pasture this year!

Sorry you were having difficulty posting photos. It went thru fine... I wonder if it was the server not this site? Hope you give it another try. I find DG the easiest to send pics, now if I could only learn how to take photos! Oh yes, and how to do "italics"... LOL

The start of the first bloom ( hopefully of many ) Blue fortune...

Dinner Plate Hardy Hibiscus..

"eyes"

Pink Delight..

NOID daylily........

California Giant Zinnia..

Pink Butterfly Guara...

Coleus and sweet potato vine...

Crepe Myrtle....

How about a blood lily?

My server? What is you call these rural servers, Possum Bell.lol
I found the html code somewhere on DG for italic, bold, and quotes, now I can't seem to find them. I can't explain it in type, because it just carries out the code.

I'll try a few more pics. Here's feverfew, I loves these tiny blooms! I'm going sow it everywhere next year!

Gloriosa Daisy...

Hey, it's moving again! I didn't want pass up a deal on glads and don't have a bed ready for them. So i have them popping up in the lawn. I like the way it looks, yet Dh is fed up mowing around them;0)

Pacifca Red Vinca....

and the last pic of one happy dog!

Gotta love a happy dawg...

"eyes"

Lynea, that looks like my Susie dog. My pit bull mix does that all the time - in the house, outside, whatever. I will walk into the room and she will be on her back, her legs and arms up and out, head back. She looks so funny, but I guess she's just trying get cool on her belly. LOL

I know there is a post somewhere that explains how to do the html, but I can never find it when I need it either. :) For Pod, I will try to explain...
for bold, italic and underline, you used the first initial of each (b,i,u). At the beginning of the area that you want the the html text you enclose the initial with < b >, removing the spaces. At the area where you want it to end, you do the same thing and add a / before the initial, so it would be < /b >, with the spaces removed.

Example (remove the spaces):

< b >This will be bold when spaces removed< / b >
< u >underline< /u >
< i >italics< /i >

It is funny. It must feel really good to them too. They're usually so crashed out when I find them in that position. And it's not just the dogs, of course it's harder to tell with a cat if it's happy.lol

Four O' Clocks and Texas Sage. The honey bees cover the Texas Sage at midday!

Cocoa, I'd love to have some Feverfew seeds for my herb garden if you can spare some.

Check out all the little blooms on the Turkey Tangle Frogfruit! Anyone who wants to cover a large full sun area in a short period should definately consider this plant!

Pretty, pretty sage.Got you down for seeds, Bronc:0)
