Not going to complain about how hot and dry it is in North Florida, it is however, 79F - 21.1 C at 4:30 in the a.m. Broke the record again yesterday....102F - 38.8C ......On the other side of the Brugmansia that I showed yesterday are yellow blooms. Will see if they stay yellow.
Zinnia - Red Spider reseeded from last year, in the most random places.
Double Day Lily--not my favorite..
Hydrangea-- Mophead is still showing off...just can't help but think of grandparents when I see the blue ones.
The Torenia--Wishbone, are back. Everywhere again!
Salvia--Black and Blue
The next two photos are of Clematis that bloomed their petals off early spring. Here they are trying to bloom again despite the heat.
Dianthus
Echinacea-Purple Coneflower--I don't have any of the newer fancy ones, yet. These are from my mother's garden.
Pentas
Here's the Crape Myrtle I mentioned yesterday.
Jacobina
I will be taking cuttings from these heat tolerant plants !
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Today I am Thankful for the A/C .

Darla it's a wonder you're even in the mood to take photo's outside when you have to venture into temps like that. Despite the temperatures there still are alot of beauties in flower. I've never seen a double daylily before but like you I much prefer the single types.
beautiful photos...very thankful for the a/c...
That jacobina is really pretty.
Still hot up here, but yesterday was a little cooler than it has been.
Lots of really nice blooms despite the weather! Heat tolerant is the way to go - no worries about wilting, at least not the plants :)
Lucky you to have torenia everywhere. It is one of my favorite annuals and I have none:(
Let me say,I'm happy to be viewing your gardens via the computer,as those temperatures would keep me close to the AC.I don't do well in heat.Your flowers are still gorgeous.
Wow what a variety of blooms, love that double day lily . You can throw it out my way any day. Thanks for stopping by my blog.
Love your garden fellow and all your beautiful blooms that are defying the hot summer heat.
Ooo that's hot there! Your blooms look great and so does the fella!
I have wasted so much money on the new colors of coneflower. I noticed that this year, I have one that's come back. I am sure it will be gone next year. If they don't die outright, they have a nasty virus that deforms the flowers. I don't recommend them. Despite your heat you have some pretty flowers.
And I thought it was hot here when we had temps in the mid-90's last week! Thanks for braving the heat to share these photos with us, Darla. Seeing your Black and Blue salvia makes me wistful--I wasn't able to find any of it in the garden centers here this year. Of course, it's an annual in my zone 5 garden, so I have to replace it each year. I don't have any of the fancier coneflower hybrids either, but the old-fashioned ones are my favorite anyway. Happy GBBD!
Your plants are looking great in spite of the heat. My brugmansia usually shut down when it gets too hot. We have had very mild weather here this June although the more typical 90's and triple digits are coming!
Love black and blue salvia, it's one of my favorite (annuals here). you have a beautiful garden!
Are you watering your hydrangea? I have, and only then got blooms. Usually the bush is covered. You encourage me to plant salvia next year. I love it! Thanks for sharing! Soon, soon we will have rain.
Hi Darla!
Lovely photos... the Jacobina is eye-catching. I'm growing a Justicia specie from Africa. I'm waiting for it to bloom.
Love all your blooms. So pretty even in this awful heat.
I use to have the torenia, 3 colors a few yrs back. I really need to get them started again. I also had the black & blue salvia.
Today is supposed to be a bad one again for the heat.
I love your Clematis! Both are lovely.
Happy GBBD!
You have lovely flowers even in the heat! I love your blue hydrangia.
A lot of great blooms for such hot temps you'e been experiencing... I can't imagine how you keep up with it all in such heat! L
Wow Darla you have had some hideous hot weather. Despite it all you have some gorgeous blooms. Those brugs are always a treat to see. Happy GBBD.
P.S. I meant to tell you that I just love that header photo. It is such fun to see the clear-wing moths working over flowers. I was looking through some older posts. I saw a shrimp plant. It reminds me of the one I kept for years as a house plant. Cheers.
As always Darla you are the Queen of the Garden, also love the 1st shot.
I wish we could grow Pentas year round here. Yours are gorgeous. I love the old fashioned echinacea. Your clemmies are GORGEOUS! Love your person sitting on the chair. Is he/she named?
What beautiful blooms you have in your garden. It seems early for Echinacea, I grew some from seed this spring but I don't intend planting them out until the autumn rains. Christina
You have some really lovely blooms in spite of the heat. I'm afraid summer is here and we won't have cool weather again until Oct-Nov, if we're lucky.
FlowerLady
Hi and thanks for visiting my blog! So happy to have found yours. You have so many beautiful things blooming. I particularly love the Black and Blue Salvia - such a striking color. The Brugmansia is another favorite, but its a tropical here and frankly, I don't have the space for it. I can almost smell it through the computer though!
Wow, you really have hot weather! Somehow it doesn't seem to be so hot in your photos. Lovely blooms and so many! Thanks for sharing!
I am surprised that you can grow clematis so well, hadn't thought that they would make it in such a hot climate!
Christina
Lovely blooms, Darla. The Jacobina is beautiful! Your posts always meke me lust after tropicals. Then I think of 100 degree weather and am not quite so lustful.
That torenia is lovely...the color contrast is amazing.
Darla: Love the header, your flowers look terrific.
Beautiful post...I'm such a fan of the old-fashioned coneflowers...the new ones don't do much for me...and they are apparently not nearly as hardy.
Love the blooms, but I tell you ~~~ that garden lady sculpture/ topiary is a hoot!
You have many GBBD palnts , but the last one I really love. Pretty sure I can't grow it here as I never heard of it. The garden lady is so cool. A great addition, so creative and fun.
That is hot. It's hard not to complain about the weather when it is so extreme. We had pouring rain and in the high 50's today. I guess we are skipping spring altogether.
I'm really impressed with how good your Hydrangea looks in that heat, mine wilt when it gets above 80. Love the Brugmansia!!
I love your header picture! I agree with the others, I am impressed that you ventured out into the heat to share pictures of your garden. I can't imagine what August will be like!
Thank you for your comment on my potting bench!
So hot here too but your flowers look happy! We got a smidge of rain tonight which was welcome.
Yes, it seems plants are so limited down here due to the heat. You do want to take cuttings of anything that can live!!! Gorgeous gardens, Darla!
I love all your beautiful flowers but that topiary lady in the garden is awesome!!! I LOVE it! So creative!
Wow, 107 is pretty warm. It was around 90 today and it was HOT!
~Ann
Hi Darla,
I love your greeter and your mother's coneflowers. I got some from an elderly neighbor lady when we first moved to our house, about 13 years ago. I wish I would have remembered what she said about not getting the newer kind of coneflowers because they would blend in with the old ones, and then, the original native ones would be lost. I no longer have the ones she gave me, and the ones I do have lots of seedlings and year old plants that are surprises from the one I have planted in the past.
Some of the blooms have had red centers, and misshapen blooms. It may be that aster yellows, or whatever the disease is called. I need to look into that. Some of the 'Prairie Splendor' blooms are looking like that.
I love that last pink bloom, too.
I love your flowers of course, the brazillian plume plant especially but I really love the pot man make out of moss I reckon, what is that guy made of?...
Darla, I Love that Gardener (photo one)!! How did you do that?? :-)
Love the plant lady! Boy, that woman has some pretty good-sized feet! :)
Absolutely lovely blooms you have going on there. Thanks for stopping by.
Cher Sunray Gardens
So much beauty in your garden! I especially like the color and form of the Torenia - Wishbone.
Everything is so pretty!... love the coneflowers, with the bumblebee on it!... xoxo Julie Marie
Beautiful flowers-love that jacobina.Mine has not bloomed yet,plant looks good though.
Wow, you posted at 4:30 AM in the morning?! I am not a morning person, but in those rare time, if I got up early, I really enjoy the fresh air and the garden much more than in the blazing sun :)
I tried to grow some Echinacea-Purple Coneflower from seeds last year, and the seedling seems never grow bigger, and eventually died. Not sure if it is something that not suitable for South Florida?? Yours is beautiful.
I also have that same Brugmansia as yours. when they are not fully open, they are yellow, and then become pink when they open. Very neat. Love it!
What a sweet amount of eye candy every single time I stop. Lovein' it all again. 66F today, thought you'd want to know. Almost too cool.
BlessYourHeart
Hi Darla - Thanks for stopping by my blog and commenting. Your Echinacea are lovely. Mine are still all green and I can't wait for the blooms to turn color. Glad to hear that you seen bees. They are definitely in the minority around here.
Love your brugmansias, Darla! How beautiful they are. The crepe myrtle is also pretty. You have a lovely garden. Thanks for sharing.
Blessings, Beth
Too hot for me, but then I'm finding myself hiding inside from the mosquitos. Brugmansia is such an exotic bloom, I hope yours stays yellow, that's a beautiful shade. The straight species of Echinacea seem to be preferred by the bees, as your photo indicates. Mine are starting to form buds.
Just lovely blooms and photos!! Lovin' the Wishbone!!
*hugs*deb
Bless your heart for going out in that heat to share photos of your garden with us. :)
Your blog and photos are lovely. I really love your blue hydrangia. Stay cool in the air conditioning!
Thanks so much for your visit and comment on my blog!
Cheers from Ontario.
I'll bet you're thankful for the AC ~ that is hot!! You have a lot of beautiful blooms anyway.
Hello Darla~ Everything looks fresh even with your drought and heat...Thank you, thank you for the surprise seeds. I loved them and planted them right away...I hope they like it here! xogail
A lot of my seeds that you gave me are coming up. I kept the packages so I can identify them and learn what they are. I actually planted a whole row in my little garden called the "Darla row". I hope they all do good. I can't thank you enough.
It's hard to believe all that is still looking so beautiful with the heat you're experiencing. Just beautiful!
Everything looks fab even with the heat...We hit 102 here day before yesterday also. arg.
Thank you for stopping by and the prayers, much appreciated
Blessings Kelsie
Darla girl my god I laughed at that "plant man"!! too cute ... and oh my goodness way too hot for me to even imagine .. it can get hot and humid here in Kingston, although a lot of Americans believe we live igloos still ? LOL .. your plants are hanging in there girl : ) and looking great even in that heat !
Sending wishes for rain and cooler weather your way !!
Joy : )
PS .. Victor is on the war path for Diane, Adam and Jack .. wink wink
Darla,
All your blooms are just beautiful. I love the plant man.
Your little fella is doing a great job of watching your garden.Girl I am loving your Brumansia. Especially the pink ones. I call dibs on a few seeds. LOL! I cannot believe how hot you are having it already . Ugh! The Jacobina is so pretty. Such beautiful petals on it. Try to stay cool!
Beautiful blooms! Love the color of your crepe myrtle. We have several weeks before ours should start blooming.
The torena is quite an exquisite little number and the last photo of Jacobina, well...it's amazing! I've never seen anything like it before! WOW!
I love the jacobina best too. We have it here in the tropics too, but this colour is so pretty.I had never seen a double daylily before. Interesting.
Lovely blooms,Darla,lucky you.
Rosie
Please send just a little of that heat here, ok? Oh and if you're taking cuttings could you throw those in as well?? Thanks - have a lovely weekend!
Happy Father's Day for you & your family, Darla.
I hve not seen some of these beauties ... awesome!
TY for your support this past week. Things are coming along fine now.
Have a beautiful week.
TTFN ~
Marydon
How do you keep the plants watered in this heat?
And thank you for putting both F and C temps there. I have the hardest time figuring out how hot it is. 21 C at 4 am is HOT!!
Hope you get some relief soon.
Jen @ Muddy Boot Dreams
Your so lucky to have warmth...i know the "grass is always greener" but boy some would be nice! I especially like your Torenia bloom, it's so very pretty! Thanks for linking up to Cottage Flora Thursdays & sharing all these gorgeous plants! xoox, tracie
Dear Darla, Your garden is beautiful! And I love the Torenia. P. x
beautiful photos- nice to see and find a blog with heat resistant flowers I live in Georgia an have not always known what to plant.
Thanks for sharing.
johnina
Darla your garden looks so lush! Maybe the plants I'm losing I will replace with veggies.
I think I have the perfect mate for your garden guy!!! Take a look... This was early last summer, by the end of summer the Zinnias were so tall and beautiful you could hardly see her dress... Yours is so cute!!!Love it!!!

This is nice and more interesting garden shared we can be visiting in this garden. Mostly are like it in this garden.
There are lovely and greatest flower shared we can be visiting and useable in this garden. The fantastic and enjoyable garden shared.
Sunflower garden more beautiful and interesting garden so that can be enjoy it in this garden so good-looking and enjoyable garden.
These colors have a greater impact against a strong green background. Cool colors such as blue and purple are soothing and toned down and would work better with a white contrast to create the look of freshness and brightness.
Amazing garden shared because we can say that a head it is nice and beautiful garden shared rather then so attractive also. It is greatest and creative blog also when we will go to in that and and visiting also in this garden. The lovely flower different varieties in the garden.
