My garden has really taken off, with my cannas and sunflowers towering over me.

I think the sunflowers are at least nine feet tall, and I actually hit my head on this one sunflower; it is heavy!

The wild rose continues to bloom, with its second round of flowers.

I didn’t realize my cannas would get so big, otherwise I would have put my Indian cone flower in another location.

The hydrangea is still clinging to life, though it is a sensitive little guy.

Here is the pile of weeds, originally around two feet tall, that I pulled out of my garden last Friday; the rain coupled with all the sunshine caused some sort of vine to go crazy in my backyard. I was pulling on it like crazy and it still wouldn’t come out.
