Great flowers - and you have the BEST roots, Connie! It may cause you a lot of work, but you get great results.

I am not sure why, but being in my backyard and having sweat drip off me seems to be my favorite thing lately. I am out there for so long at a time I have begun stuffing my pockets with napkins to dry my face. Finally, I bought some athletic sweat bands. This week, however, our storms are doing most of the work. I just let the other half know he can take a vacation from watering for this week. We are having rain several times a day and for hours at a time. So, while sometimes it is extra...other times I get a nice long break complete with naps! I have begun learning to knit, so while I have some downtime I enjoy that a great deal now as well.
Just a quick update to show the spike nearly fully bloomed.
