My First White Bloom

The first one has opened on this plant. I have 2 other plants that havent had any open yet. Was very happy to see this as I just bought these this spring. I spotted while I was taking my walk out front this morning. I had shade there.
I got a little bit of the garden weeded today. But I didnt feel like putting shoes on and the dirt out there was very hot. I also got some cleaning done in the back room. Then I gave the kittens a dawn dish liquid bath. It helps control the fleas.
This evening I watered the hot pepper plants in the garden. I also planted some spider plant starts. Now that I watered it feels like we might get some rain. I wont complain. The rest of the garden would like it.
Hope your day went good.

Very pretty.
Don't you get rid of poison oak when it grows in your yard? I guess you aren't allergic to it?

I have been spraying that crap when I can. Got some of it starting to die. The spot you can see in the photo has to wait so I know I dont kill my lilies. I can get it good this fall.

@wolfgirl569 I don't even have to touch it for me to catch it. I just have to be near it.

@DaddyEvil I have it all over my arms. But a lot of that is from the cats. So whats out back is getting sprayed heavy when the wind allows. Most of what I have is the ivy. But allergic to all of it. Unless the wind is blowing towards me I dont usually catch it. I was fine out front today.

The flower looks cool and beautiful!
It is at times natural on hot days to feel tired and not feeling to do much work but I think that is ok!
The kittens would have loved the bath on a hot day.
What are the temperatures in C/F that you are having?

90F is not that comfortable.
Well I had thought that the Kittens would have enjoyed a nice bath in such a heat!

@wolfgirl569 I thought no rain for today, but half hour ago we had a downpour, it only lasted 20 minutes, but an incredible quantity of water. Now the sun is showing up again.

Your white flower is pretty and I'm sure the others will be blooming soon.
Sounds like you had a busy day and I bet the kitties are getting big

They will be open soon. Thanks
Yes they are. I still have 2 from Bright Eyes litter. They are over 3 months old now and starting to look like they are going to be big boys.

@JudyEv Not enough right now. I watered what I could reach with the hose which is most of them.

@wolfgirl569 That's a shame. Are they getting too much rain?

It acts like we may have storms again. I was gone all day. Growing things and blooming things certainly are fun. Gorgeous lily.

A very lovely flower. Thank you for mentioning the kitty bath, While mine are so small I can wash them easily, I still haven't been able to order the flea collars and a good soaking would be good for them since their mom comes and goes and she is always outside. I guess it would be all right to use my shampoo.

I use dawn dish liquid. The blue original type. Fleas dont like it.

Sounds like you had another busy day. Stay cool and hydrated. Today will be a little more comfortable before it heats up again.

@wolfgirl569 Yeah, I stuck my head out when Meals on Wheels came. It was cooler and less humid. Nice.

Am starting my day here. It's morning . I do love farm work so much . When plants grow and the garden looks green, am always thrilled and excited by that view point

@wolfgirl569 I can imagine but I can't deny the fact that some weeds do look beautiful under the sun rays especially when they have green leaves growing !

It's nice to have a garden where you can grow your own plants.
