Your yard faired better in the drought than mine, but I have neglected my flowers for tomatoes. The anemone is beautiful. I still have some of your petunias blooming. I see your vitex is doing well. Your garden failure sedum does that for me. Do you think it is the variety or what that makes it flat. It is supposed to be so easy. The calf pictures are still disturbing.

I know, those calf picture get to me too. My computer screen runs various pictures across if I leave it on and sometimes I look up and see those and turn it off quickly. I should just remove them to a disc so none of us have to ever see them again.

We had another near miss with a new baby calf a few weeks ago. Maybe the llama was responsible for saving it. We made arrangements for another one yesterday. We will put it with the heifers when they start calving.

These areas I showed are around the house where I kept watered pretty well all summer.

I think all the taller sedums flop if not pinched. We need to look for some of the shorter ones. My white variegated is flopped over too. My sis tells me I should pinch back all the taller perennials; but I never get around to it until it is too late.
