The Rain Is Helping....


The jasmine has had new growth . The hummingbirds love it. The clematis started blooming again . I can only hope the rain comes at closer intervals. As for that ivy, we have to keep it cut back , often. Early this year, the flowers were looking good, but the summer heat has taken it's toll on ours.  I still hope that we can enjoy some of  the late bloomers. :):)

  1. The jasmine looks to be doing very well. I do like clematis, I put them in every available space!

    1. We just planted this little clematis of ours,this year. It has done well where it's planted. But the one we planted 3 years ago, always looks so darn sad.

  3. Rain...I've heard of it! We don't get much here, so when it does happen, it is a real treat! I used to live in the South which is where I first saw clematis and love it!! So beautiful!!
