A lot less is flowering than in April. The only flowers in any number today are the rose &#8216;Red Cascade&#8217;, two different four o&#8217;clocks, batchelor buttons, clammy weed and some larkspur. Everything else has just a flower or two, fading under the last few day&#8217;s 90 degree temperatures.
