There are still lots of plants blooming away, some for the first time in the season and some continuing on through the season. I think I’ve done ok with plant selection for succession. The beds are kind of a mess since this year’s abnormally hot and humid weather has been wonderful for the weeds but not so much for weeding. But the flowers are starting to naturalize so it doesn’t look as bad as it could. I think next year I’ll try to take a series of photographs of the entire gardens as the season progresses.
