Agastache is an amazing plant - loving your hot weather and it's doing really well here where it's been cool and damp. Hoping it cools down soon. I know the humidity is what seems to make it so bad.Catherine@AGardenerinProgresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05001060769253273283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702367777217796558.post-32423803639935793462011-07-24T22:12:22.860-04:002011-07-24T22:12:22.860-04:00I agree--this heat has been terrible, and it's...I agree--this heat has been terrible, and it's hard to get motivated to do much in the garden. We finally got about an inch of rain this morning, our first in over two weeks, so it has cooled off a little.

I figure we earned the right to have nice summers with low humidity after putting up with winter for seven months of the year. I mean, c'mon, we deserve something other than 90-something degrees and mosquitoes the size of helicopters. lol<br /><br />The Hocking Hills area was the most pleasant surprise for us when we were in Ohio a few years back, the scenery rivals Yellowstone and in my opinion, surpasses it. Up here in Wisconsin, they're always hyping the Dells, but the Dells is a tourist trap. We were so amazed that the parks in Ohio were free! I hope they can be repaired soon, they were awesome. I forget the name of the huge cave, but there were two ladies who just refused to walk under the overhanging stone when we were there, I remember it so well, they were terrified it would fall on them. I guess I didn't help the cause much when I said, "Oh, well, you'd never know what hit you." <br /><br />Love the area, Lona, and I love it so much more now knowing a friend gardens and adds to all that beauty.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18368318730124533690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702367777217796558.post-84963055953080878632011-07-22T21:08:58.126-04:002011-07-22T21:08:58.126-04:00I agree.

I had to chuckle over your comment that you could water the garden with your sweat ... I can so relate to that one! Still, you do have some beauties out in the garden despite the heat and humidity. Agastache 'Rosits' looks unfazed, as does your gorgeous 'Scentimental' rose. Hopefully the heat wave will be a long distant memory very soon.BernieHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04435004798656616711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702367777217796558.post-54945273144028072982011-07-22T18:50:02.379-04:002011-07-22T18:50:02.379-04:00Really beautiful scenery Lona.
