Summer has started here like gangbusters. It is in the 90's with high humidity. Gross! I've got a floral afro going here.
And I am still buying stuff for the garden. I picked up gooseberries.
And some white currents.
The Blog Tech's salsa garden is flourishing. The peppers are starting to turn red.
Have you ever seen this? It'd Mexican cilantro. It is thorny and leathery but it grows better than regular cilantro. I had never seen it until this year.
Several varieties of clematis growing together.
Starting to cascade.
Daylilies are blooming.
Rosemary, sage and petunias.
Watch for the Strawberry Moon tonight.

I must say I do hate the heat; I was working on some containers outside this morning, but had to come in as the sun beat down on me, ugh!
I am excited for the Full Moon tonight, the Strawberry Moon. Daiquiris, anyone?
I must get some red currants too, I already have plenty black ones and they grow in the wild here too.
It's cloudy here and it will stay like that so I'll miss the moon tonight I'm afraid.
Have a great day!

Just beautiful flowers/veggies though, and they are certainly loving the weather. Even if you aren't.
I looked up our Moon Rise here tonight, and it's for 7:48pm. Now to find a high spot, for viewing. Trouble is, we are living at the highest spot in the city. But are pretty surrounded by trees. Which mess with both our sunrise and sunsets views.
And Full Moon views too.
Until it has risen well above Moon Rise.
But then (Moon rise), is when you get the best "color" possibilities. Seeing it, through the earth's haze, when it's just rising.
Happy June Strawberry Full Moon!!!
The two hemispheres seem to be really doing extreme intense weather patterns.
I'll wave to you tonight as I sit with the full moon.
Love Leanne
I had never seen that cilantro before too.
Happy Summer Solstice.
