You KNOW it's going to be one of 'those' days, when it's Monday morning, on your way to work, and the weather person on the radio declares a 'Human Velcro Warning' for the day! Yes. Us Northerners are heat-wimps. I personally LOVE the heat, but when heading to work in a no-A.C. building, I tend to just wilt.
While surfing the blogs today, I had another "WOW! I've got/collect ___" moment. The item of the day was 'Four O'clock' flowers. PROTECTOR OF VINTAGE was trying to grow them with no luck in the flowering department. Since I lack for ANY motivation in this heat.... I thought I would show photos of our Four O'clocks...
...more Fours...
...and Rose of Sharon...
...and Roses...
...and Phlox...
...and ?...AND, guess what I found peaking out amongst the green...
Despite the heat, Fall can't be far off if the Japanese Lanterns are turning orange!!

Human velcro~ That's hilarious!!! Those flowers are stunning, also because of the talent behind the camera! Have a great day!
Hugs!
That's it - I'm coming up there to see that gorgeous yard of yours!
Love your blog! I am especially happy to have found a fellow collector of sweater guards/clips, although I only have three!! Can't find them around here. My four o'clocks finally opened-up this week. This is the first year we have grown them and we are enjoying their beautiful colors. Have a nice day!
P.of V. - THANKS for stopping by so that I could properly credit the Four O'clock reference!!
