Spring time in Mobile CAN be amazing... this year it seemed that Summer was just too anxious to arrive and crashed the party early... Our hydrangeas were amazing... for about 2 weeks... the heat has since sucked all the color out of them and they are just barely hanging on waiting for the next batch of shade or scarce rain shower. But they were pretty while they lasted!

My lime trees are getting ready for late summer mojitos!
Our agapanthus are holding up much better in this heat... we added a few new ones this year that will hopefully bloom later this summer. I love the height of these plants... the blooms easily reach 3-4ft off the ground!



Found this stowaway in the grass recently!! I've since found 3-4 other baby basils nearby as well... guess next year I should just check my grass before I buy a new plant!
