Summer Days in the Garden and Big News!

Hello Everyone,
    We are enjoying our summer days in the garden as our temperatures are warm but not hot with enough rain to keep the garden green and lush.- we had a good rain last night. Yesterday,my husband and I spent most of the day weeding,edging,deadheading and even moving a few perennials around because of clashing colors(watered them well).Normally,I wouldn't move at this time but because it is not as hot this summer and there is more moisture I think it will work.
We do have some Island ladies coming for a tour tomorrow evening.
The delphiniums are still putting on a pretty good show.

The hydrangeas are starting to bloom now and I love how they put on a good show for weeks with no attention.

Well,this is some of the highlights of our garden in summer.Next time I will show you the areas I missed today.
