A month of Rain Brings Blooms again

I was so tired of it raining

But what came after the rains was beautiful. roses began bursting open, plants I thought were gone for the season bounced back and grew 2 more feet.

Plants that normally only bloom in the early spring to early summer are blooming again,

Did I say I was tired of the rain,,

Shame on me!

It brought my yard back to life again

I wish you were here,, the pictures don't do them justice at all!

Okay the first one is is NOT yellow roses it's lantana,, it took me a minute or two how to figure out to use this gallery and I still haven't found how to edit the pictures with captions
