Planting ( August 14, 2012 )
Sunflower filled the hummingbird feeders and watered the pots of flowers. Snapdragon brought some butterflyweeds and planted near the salvia.
Hummingbirds ( August 14, 2012 )
A hummingbird is on the swing!
I just stopped by the garden and sat the bench for about 10 minutes. I could see 4 hummingbirds are chirping and flying around. Today was the first day of school. I hope students enjoy to see hummingbirds.

Hummingbird feeders
We placed the hummingbird feeders today. We hope the hummingbirds can find our feeders and come back to our garden. We placed a hummingbird swing, too!
A hummingbird swing!
Also, we weeded a little.

Rose mallow
Rose mallows are blooming. The flowers seem smaller than as usual. Does drought make the flower smaller?

Drought
Some plants became brown because of the drought this summer, but they are native plants, so they can survive this weather.
Prarie dock didn't get as tall as usual this year. We don't have to tie them up.
Cup plant doesn't hold water in their leaves anymore. The bottom part of leaves are gone.
We don't know what happened to this aster. Their leaves turned brown. We hope the root system is still ok.
Wild ginger.
