If you look back on my June 2 post I had a photo of a pathetic looking hibscus. That's it against the back. All it needed was some sun and rain. In northeast Ohio we've had a lot of rain this summer and every perennial plant I have is thriving. There is some miracle in the rain coming down from the heavens as compared to the water that comes from a faucet. I think the perennial garden (top) is actually out of control! Everything seems twice the size of last year.
I know what you mean. Rain water does seem to be better for the plants. Or maybe when it rains they just get a lot more water than we realize.
ReplyDeleteAll your plants look beautiful.
The plants are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI came over from Ruth's to see whom she'd commended with the award. It's nice to meet you!
I know my weeds are certainly thriving but that's only because I haven't kept up with things. Your garden looks lovely.
ReplyDeletewhat a lovely refuge!
