It’s already mid-September and I realized I had not posted my favorite photos from this month. August is always incredibly hot and my garden starts to wane, but there are always a few plants that continue to shine in spite of the heat.

This month, its the time for the native plants really to really shine. They can take the heat, because they are made for it. Also, the zinnias continued to produce lots of colorful blooms even as their leaves begin to succumb to powdery mildew.

Here are some of my favorite photos from this August. Click on one of the images if you want to see the larger size photo.
