In Tategamori, where I enjoyed the rainy season for the first time in a while, it was raining all the time.
The cicadas started chirping.

Summer has arrived when you hear the cicadas!
I feel that it will.

It feels twice as hot (ToT)
It's also a difficult time to work in the garden.

Now, let's take a look at the flowers that are currently blooming despite the heat.
Let me introduce you to flowers.

``Echinacea''
An herb of the mint family native to North America.
It is characterized by slightly drooping petals.

Echinacea purpurea

Double-flowered Echinacea Double White Delight

"Scabiosa Rouge Carmine"
Phyllidae 
Blooms from early summer to autumn, adding color to your garden.
A strong ally.

"Lysimachia Firecracker"
Primulaceae
The contrast between the yellow flowers and copper leaves is beautiful.

"Veronica First Love"
Lamiaceae
Despite its cute name, it is very durable and resistant to heat and cold, which is a great help.
Pretty pink flowers bloom from early summer to autumn.

etc······.
I can't introduce it to you.

The Kaoru Kaze Garden is growing dynamically this year, probably because of the heavy rain.
The grass is also dynamic...I can't keep up with the weeding work (tears).

Not lose to rain,
Don't give in to the wind
I'll do my best! !
