    Everything looks well and healthy (including Foxy Molly). I just love that little path area ... it is like a Secret Garden, wonderful.

                    The Alstroemeria is beautiful. Neither of my two are doing well, an Indian Summer (I think) and a red. I do not have them in full sun (in separate locations) and they are watered daily in the heat. We hope they will pick up after the Summer.
