We actually went to pikes and then to another plant place, then once the kiddo went to bed at 8 we went outside to plant some new things. It is hot!! I have about five plants I bought a month or two ago that look terrible. I keep thinking it is a fungus so I've been treating them...hoping they will come back to life.

Was my day for the twentyfiveminutewaterwand nonsense, so up at dawn to water some Hydramgeas, Hostas & Ferns, that were beginning to suffer. Pulled a few weeds and tree seedlings. No breeze at all today, so when the sun appeared, it was time to come in.
After Church, went on a very short shopping trip to Wally World for a large plastic pot for a Hydrangea, then to nearby Farmer's Market for fresh fruit and a few vegetables(will not pay grocery store prices for those) and lastly, a Dollar Tree(the item I went to get, they had sent back to the warehouse). Rats!
Spent some time online researching a no-blooms problem with my tomatoes. Didn't find a definitive answer, just a lot of other people across the country with the same problem.
Back to the garden at sundown to see what needed attention, still no breeze and still very hot outside.
Looks like a one-day break in heat at mid-week. Hope so, have a lot of plants that need potting or repotting with a more moisture retentive soil mix.
Received a shipment of plants from a heretofore reputable West Coast nursery, that had a total failure in their shipping department. Result was, I received a box full of soiless mix, pots, bare root plants & labels, of several different cultivars of the same type plant, all separated from each other! The sales rep became huffy and quite rude, when I inquired if they were now using primates to prepare their plants for shipment. Have rehydrated them, but all have to be repotted and wait until next year's blooms(hopefully), to determine which ones are which. Never a dull moment around here.
Suppose this will be a good time to tackle some of those indoor projects that have been neglected for awhile, in favor of the garden!
Keep cool and drink a lot of fluids!

We're not that smart usually.
