All the plants that we started from seed are really blooming now -- the sunflowers "summertime mix" and "ruby eclipse" have begun to bloom --
The crepe myrtles are in full bloom:
Sammy still runs through here but it looks okay:
The trumpet vine is beautiful this year, but we haven't seen any hummingbirds at all. The bees really like it.
BB and Beau went to a small horse show this morning -- it was really hot & no covered arena! They competed in the western classes and had some good placings. But really it was just for fun and practice & they had plenty of both!

Love the sunflowers! I had never realised that there were so many kinds,heights and colours until I went to the Botanic Gardens in Oxford a few years ago. I LOVED them! In fact I did a tapestry of them and showed it in one of my blogs. Fancy having those lovely ones in your garden.........my, my! Joan
Your garden is lovely. The flowers are so very pretty. Congratulation to BB and Beau on their good placing in the horse show.
Sunflowers are our absolute favourite! Your garden is looking very pretty.
Congrats on the horse show.
