July 20

Sugar Land, Texas

My Plumbago withers in the hot afternoon. But a few hours after watering, it plumps up and looks like new.
I had a lazy day today. Docents meeting in the morning and a 2 hour nap in the afternoon.
Then Tom and I went out for a steak dinner at Outback. We had a $10 off coupon and a $25 gift card so a cheap date.

1/160s f/6.3 at 70.0mm iso200 full exif

our garden is a MESS with having been gone 2 weeks. I brief my Dad in Law, and my oldest daughter- they did all that was expected, then-
THEN the stupid Japanese Beetles attacked EVERYTHING. ughhhhh

I bought one in spring this year. Now it's starting to bloom, I'm thrilled...
Love the shape and color of this bloom so much!

Well done and a beautiful blue. I wither in the hot afternoon, too.
