The rains are finally here! Not everyone is happy about it but I’m selfish and sick of watering the garden. I’m also eager to finally get the ground softened so I can plant these guys:
I snapped most of these last week, right before the rain kicked in.

Greg’s father gave us what he dubbed “screaming orange” crocosmia in July. They got in the ground late so they bloomed late . . . I wish I could do that every year. They are so hard to photograph but they are the most fantastic yellow-orange-red combo.

The yellow Coreopsis ‘Moonbeam’ and orange Zauschneria californica ‘Wayne’s Select’ are still blooming like crazy.
Okay, this isn’t a bloom so much as a fruit, but my creeping snowberry (Symphoricarpos mollis) is gorgeous right now.
