    It's been pretty hot here in Oklahoma . . . yesterday it got up to 105. We really could use some rain.  The day lily season is now winding down, but I do still have a few things blooming, only about a fourth of which are day lilies.  But it's good to have other things blooming in the yard so that when the day lily season comes to a screaching halt I'll still have some color showing. Above is a cluster of sulphur cosmos.
