Its amazing to see how quickly Mother Nature responds to a little rain in the midst of this terrible drought. We got an inch or two of rain on Sunday, and today the creeping lantana out back is popping with blooms. I’ve been watering this guy by hand all summer, but it wasn’t as satisfying as a drenching rain, I suppose.
The crepe myrtles are popping into bloom as well. It’s nice to see a little color out there!

Happy to see some flowery resistance. Beautiful photograph. Thanks for posting!
Hi, and thanks! I just checked out your blog… nice shot for today… your butterfly looks like he’s standing on some lantana as well 🙂
