My basic weeding rule: if they grow in rows they're flowers;
if they don't they're weeds.

My comp temp often gets to 45 on those extra hot days which is when I turn it off to cool down. Only on 40 at the moment.

Cheryl, this free program to download has a collage feature on it that is very easy to use. Just select 'page' then select the style of collage from the templates on the right, select size (I usually use 600 x 600) drag your photos from your album that is on the left onto the squares you want and save... voila!!

This is the program I use sometimes - I've done the last few this way though I do the text on another program. It is limited in some ways but very easy though I haven't tried any of the other features on it yet.
If you have any problems with it I can 'talk' you through your first one.

Our daylilies haven't stopped flowering... not as much as spring but at least two or three per plant.

I'm glad you reminded me Mary-Anne as I nearly forgot to do this months. There isn't a lot different to last month. I forget to put hibiscus on... I'll do one of them later.

Thanks Cheryl.. And I agree, you do what you think is right only you know your plants, it does not matter how much water you give them it the fierce sun and wind that turns them crispy I have the opposite problem this week they are balling another unsightly look and they will get pruned next week..

Nice ones MA, I think I will for the first time cut all my roses as they will all be burnt and useless in a few days

Yes we have been pulling them out for years too Gail Thanks for the ID, I know where they come from some of the paddocks around the corner going to the lagoon have lots in them, wind and birds Thankfully I only see the odd one on occasions now.
I just googled interesting to find that its a introduced species from tropical America.
