I brought all of them inside before the big rain. It was time to have some inside bouquets but I just got too busy. This is a sample of the hybrids and the older cemetery iris.
Give the vase a turn and you can see a couple flag iris in the bouquet. I had to give the whole bunch a trim job to take away the spent blooms but they are continuing to bloom.
A candid shot of everyday life showing in the background. The peonies will last a few days and then they will drop petals.
A shot of the droop with the two and a half inch rain weighing down the blooms. I did prop up some today but they will not ever be the same again. Weather is always a factor that can be such a negative for flowers but we needed the moisture so badly.
The third vase of flowers has roses in it along with some special peonies to balance thing out for display.
I mowed in the back yard today. I sharpened the blade a little and I didn't have to use the bagger today. It was slow going as the grass was tall. I was a couple of days behind on the job. I was thinking I had enough energy to do the front yard also today but it was getting to be 83° F. by the time I had finished the back yard. I had to wait until late morning to start as the 84% humidity was not letting the grass dry out for me to do the job. We are really now into a full summer mode with the heat and humidity. It is suppose to stay hot for days ahead.
Thanks for stopping by today.
