7-24-11 VERMONT: Today was gorgeous, it didn’t get out of the seventies, low humidity, blue skies, sun—what a pleasant change from the past week. Still no rain and lots of plants starting to wilt, so I watered all the beds, which took four hours. Paying attention to every individual plant is good once in a while, I found lots of weeds and plants that needed staking. What we need now is a nice soaking rain, without electricity.
Lots of guests for a few days—Alison, Dan, Lily, Steve, Val, Lucy and Anna yesterday. The house is noisy with laughter and everybody getting corrected by everyone else, the usual chaos.
New blooms: liatris, ligularia, coreopsis, soapwort.
I realize this is getting to be a Daylily Only Blog, but here is another hybrid in white.
...And another in pink.
