I was surprised, too, when I went out with my camera to find more blooms than I expected. I guess our gardens are surviving the heat better than we think. Great shots of the hummingbird! They've been frequent visitors here, too, but always seem to appear when I don't have my camera with me:)Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4547783720122066148.post-2888879546244257992010-08-15T21:55:44.491-05:002010-08-15T21:55:44.491-05:00Birdwoman - I buy many of my plants from Houston a...Birdwoman - I buy many of my plants from Houston and Austin, so it shouldn't be surprising that we have plants in common. :-)<br /><br />Diana - I was worried about my abutilon coming back.
