Wow, Kev... those are beautiful! Must be nice to be able to enjoy those every single day. I think I like that orange one the best... kind of unusual. Thanks for sharing those with us.

Great shots Kev! Love the macro stuff with the water droplets on the petals. The color is so intense in that light.

Love your pictures Kev.

Very nice pictures Kev. My in-laws live in your neighborhood and claim you had some serious heat to deal with. That won’t help the blooms.

Last week we did have some high 80"s to low 90's for about 4 days but it cooled down at night and most blooms did OK

Very nice, Kev, thanks for posting!

I live a couple hours west of you, and we just got .7" of rain after months without any. My 2.2 acres of cactus and wildflowers bloomed all at once the next day. It is really something to see now. Just needed a nice drink of water.
