Summer blooms at 40c

This summer is quite uncertain compared to previous year in fact this year has been by far filled with uncertainty and ambiguity that will be staying for some time more in the latter part of this year.

While we are experiencing Hot summer days  in our region this time with unexpected western disturbances the usual  scorching heat waves are being subsided by the advent of showers periodically in every week.

It has helped a lot for flowers to appear in otherwise colorless summer garden.

                                                 Neon carnation bloom gave a comeback





Hibiscus flowers are enjoying change in weather





Firebush Flowers 




Solanum virginianum 



French Marigold


Rains bring Rain lily to bloom 








Portulaca is one of the most hardy flower in summer 








Peacock flower and Scarlet milkweed are constantly blooming from last month 







Plumeria blooms 



Jasmine blooms 






Zinnia in pots 





Some fresh harvest of tomatoes 




Meanwhile sky is looking cloudy again this weekend

  2. I have never heard of a sunbird until now! Wow, it's something! I've also never seen a hibiscus that color, or a neon carnation. Thank you for sharing such unusual, to me, things!

  3. I've never seen a neon carnation before. So many hot-loving flowers that are hard to grow in my region. I can grow portulaca though and it is coming up all over this year!

  4. I enjoy visiting your garden each month. A lot of your flowers are similar to what we have in the Caribbean.

  5. A sunbird (looks like a type of what we call hummingbird?) A neon carnation? Your garden is so different and yet you have some of the same things I can grow, like French marigolds. I would wilt in 30 degree C heat. (It's about 23 C where I live right now, with low humidity). But, I would never be able to grow jasmine. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

  25. The Firebush Flower is new to me. Marigolds are a favourite of mine and they are so easy to seed save from for free flowers each year. - Margy
