passion vine up-date

I have been home long enough now to have posted all the photos of the trip,

caught up on my sleep and almost caught up on my yard work

this is not a great time to work in the yard here

many afternoons it clouds up and we have thundershowers and rain

then there is the heat

the heat is not so bad, but the mosquitoes are

the vines are filling in nicely

one of my favorite ones opening on the side of the arbor

most of the blooms have been with the front runner on the fence

 I am so proud of that flower....

the right side filled in on the inside of the fence

and the outside

we also have a surprise watermelon plant

we have already eaten one watermelon - it was wonderful

the plant is taking over the flower bed

I know what I am going to plant lots of next year

watermelon!
