I mowed in the front yard today before the heat set in. The humidity was high but it is Iowa. You can see that this guy in the back yard that the grass needs to be mowed.
A lot of my roses are spent now and I did do a lot of dead heading on the one pick rose. I didn't get done as it was too hot and there were just too many dead blooms to trim. I will return tomorrow. This knock out rose is still doing well.
The yellow rose is still doing well also. I don't have much to trim out on it.
I planted these in rows around my tomato raised bed area. I had a little bunny trapped inside my enclosed fence of the tomatoes so I had to open up a corner and let it get out. I will collect grass for mulch around my tomatoes now when I mow the back yard. I have way too many morning glories that are coming up thick in the area. I know the mulch won't stop the morning glories but it will slow them down. I have little tomatoes forming on half of my plants right now.
The sunflowers are doing well now with the rains helping them along. I have seven tomatoes planted around the tall ones and they all will just have to get along with each other. I like seeing my new fence in the background.
The brass bells need to be restrung in to a full tower of bells. They also could use some polishing. I like the sound of brass bells and the wind does make them chime. We are destined to have a lot of high temperatures. The heat index looks bad so will again just work in the back yard the next few days.
My new hearing aids are in now but they can't schedule me in until next week. I am working with only one working aid and it is driving me crazy. I really think they could figure out something to work me in to get my high priced aids into my ears. Thanks for stopping by today.
