This hosta that starts out light green in the spring is almost white at the end of the season.
The Delphinium blooms are fully open now. I hope we get the rain predicted today and tomorrow because the ground is dry and cracked.
The shaggy petaled Coneflowers are opening.
A friend came over yesterday and we laid out her blocks on my double design wall. We also went through other fabrics for quilts that I am going to cut for her.

We have had scads of rain- three downpours yesterday. When I went for a walk, it all smelled real musty- unusual for August here. I got some borders on a Vet quilt, but not much else.
The garden is still looking so pretty. My yard is looking a mess. It has been hot and humid. After working all day I just can't get myself to go out and do any yard work especially in the southern facing front yard. We still have not had much rain. It rained a little bit last Friday, but it was not enough to make a difference. The grass is brown and the plants are suffering. On the other hand, the weeds and crabgrass are doing fine! LOL!!!
Your garden is beautiful,. I love that hosta! My garden is kind of a mess. I have lots of flowers, but because of all the rain we've had (no shottage here) the weeds are 4 feet tall.
It's very dry here even thighs now we are getting a sprinkle, just not enough. All of my coneflower are dried and the yellow finch are eating the seeds. Before long, I will be cutting down plants. Fall is early this year probably due to the heat and dryness, trees are yellowing. Your plants look very pretty.
Beautiful photos, Wanda. I love your garden! Kisses, my friend.
Your garden photos are such a treat to see! I think I may have to add zinnias to my list of flower blocks to make.
Lovely photos Wanda... seeing the mostly white leaves on the hosta was a surprise. Pretty none the less. Radiant blue delphiniums, so pretty.

You have me longing for Summer down here with your garden photos! The Coneflowers create such a lovely picture with the pulmonaria leaves hiding beneath. What is the tiny, tiny pink flower just peeping out?
