Most of the flowers in our yard have finished blooming, but there are still a few things left.

The bracts on the blue lace hydrangea have turned pink.

This dahlia with three-inch blossoms has bloomed persistently.

This plant has just one big blossom!

Generations two and three of the 2021 cherry tomato crop! The idea was to have the second generation about three weeks behind generation one, and generation three some three weeks behind that! Well nice idea but generation two did not start to set fruit till two weeks after expectation and generation three was a couple of weeks ahead of expected. (now to run spell check to see if I spelled 'generation' 6 times correctly)
