The yard across the street....

.....is full of flowers and some of them we don't have in our yard.  This is a common Bleeding Heart that grows in shaded areas.  It reminds me of my childhood home where they were naturalized and in abundance.

The iris across the street was so interesting.  It is rain beaten, just about worn out but still worth a picture.  The heart of this flower is something to consider!

What happens when we don't put out slug bait?  Not a petal goes untouched from the rabid nibblers!

If the rain lets up this week, as we are told it will, I'll be out in the garden planting.  This is the week it needs to be planted or we begin to get nervous about the harvest.  Corn, beans and tomatoes take until the end of August to start picking.  Time is wasting!
