Flowers are blooming
away today after yesterday’s soaking rain. 
My plants seem to have given a sigh of relief now that they have had a good long drenching. 
We could use even more rain but I keep hoping it doesn’t choose Saturday to give it to us. I am throwing a baby shower brunch and rain is not invited.
This cosmo is one of the pom pom varieties. It is really pretty. 
These pansies as well as the dianthus continue to flourish. 
They are dependable as well as beautiful. 
I am happy to see my roses finally showing their pretty faces. 
The red lupine continues to thrill me. I did have two of them break in the heavy rain, one had a bud on it. 
It makes me sad to lose even one of them but worse things could happen so I will count my blessings. 
I hope you are having a wonderful day.

Second blog I’ve seen these beautiful Lupines on this morning! I envy you gardeners that are able to enjoy these beauties, they don’t do well here.
We had a nice rain the other nice and you’re so right the garden almost says ‘ahh…’ from the relief. It cooled things down a bit too after temps close to 100 all weekend. Lovely blooms today!

Teresa, the pictures are beautiful. I especially like the one of the orange flower with the blue background. Gorgeous! I can’t grow lupines here. It’s too hot and humid, but I love seeing them in other gardens. So pretty! Thanks for sharing your garden pictures. ~~Rhonda

Everyone is flaunting lupine and mine has no buds. I’m jealous. You have some beauties there. Beautiful cosmos. I like the pom pom look. Gorgeous clematis. Beautiful blog you have.

Teresa, I love to see whole garden shots so really enjoyed seeing your backyard. It looks beautiful! We got lots of rain so I can pull weeds instead of breaking them off. I’ve tried to keep a red lupine but no luck so far. Of course that didn’t stop me from buying another one this year. Great post! Jean

I really like your garden Teresa…those lupines are so beautiful. That’s rare here in my part of the country.

Your garden is beatiful. I love the close up shots of the flowers. My favorite was the first deep red flower with the purple in the center just stunning!
