I loved to spot the Littlest Gardener beside her wading pool in the second picture. But I do think you should call her the Cutest Gardener becaurse that's what she is!

They are all so tall. I've heard that too about the rain making everything bigger, including the weeds! Well, the mystery is on again - I had 5 different Poppies still growing, some of yours, Di's and mine. Today I got back from appt. and they are all gone except for mine - the one I didn't care about since mine are blooming. I've seen lots of dead slugs so my baiting is working and there is no sign of them to where the poppies were. I give up! That was the 3rd planting and it happens the same every time! One day they just disappear!!!RainGardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14071017261791897927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960442494452732795.post-27916003840693239812010-07-07T20:05:31.232-07:002010-07-07T20:05:31.232-07:00Yeah, it's finally hot around here, too.

For me it's Julie's frozen yogurt bars from Costco. Yum. And staying indoor, glued to the computer until it cools off. <br /><br />Your garden looks magnificent, as usual. I can vouch for the tall Monardas. Mine are taller than me! Now that the rain is behind us we can be grateful for it instead of complaining about it.
