nonelvis: (GARDEN bee)
[personal profile] nonelvis
After a relatively cool and very wet summer, we have finally hit hardcore August: 90+ degrees and humid, and scheduled to remain that way through the end of the week. This means that the cantaloupes – or maybe they're muskmelons, since I've long since forgotten what I planted – are finally getting enough sun and heat to bear fruit:

Baby cantaloupe!

Okay, okay, it's only one baby melon out of the the many, many flowers on the vines, and odds are it won't get a hell of a lot bigger by the time things cool off again, but still, it's one more melon than I was expecting given the weather earlier this summer.

The black-eyed susans are now in full bloom:

Rudbeckia

And the red bee balm has finally decided it might be time to bloom, a good three weeks or so after its purple siblings:

Red bergamot

Inu, however, remains unimpressed by the garden, as well as the photographer.

No photos, please.
