SUMMER overtakes SPRING

Our spring flowers especially roses are in FULL BLOOM, but summer's heat is sneaking up on us. It was 98 degrees yesterday which isn't springlike at all. Oh well, we live in the high desert. Summer always feels like the LONGEST SEASON and spring and fall just commas.

Hubby pruned the roses and they are blooming like crazy
Yellow roses of Texas are lovely
Too many on one stem to cut for flower arrangements inside
Rose plants from Walmart are doing well
Honeysuckles smell so swet plus Oleander bushes are blooming
Then there is our sad garden with onion bulbs going to seed
Little 4 ft peach tree has lots of fruit this year too.
Grape vines are growing back after their massacre!
Tall tree was suppose to be a sage bush, it will have purple blooms
Front yard has volunteer desert marigold and more roses

  1. The flowers add a beautiful taste of spring, even if the weather doesn't like to cooperate. Thank you for giving a glimpse of your garden!
