My Dad decided to work outside in the heat wave we had a couple of weeks ago and collapsed. He refused to go to the doctor for a couple of days and by the time he got there his heart rate was down to 24 and would not respond to medications. So he had to have emergency surgery to install a pacemaker. Then his lungs proceeded to fill with fluids. SO it's been a rather rough time but he is finally on the mend and at home. He is 100% dependent on his pacemaker and for the time being had to be on oxygen. Hopefully as his lings mend he will not need the oxygen. While I was gone the hubby didn't think to water anything so many of my flowers are totally distressed and struggling. It' been a rough week and a half. But things are on the upswing :) <br /> Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15192378197271824011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-47281304734552203032017-08-06T07:52:43.735-05:002017-08-06T07:52:43.735-05:00Your garden is so lush and green Elizabeth.

Hosta seem to flower for ages and yours look the same as ours though we have to grow ours in pots to stop the snails eating them.

The daylilies are gone here, and the coneflowers are fading since I don't cut them back but leave the seeds for the birds. <br /><br />I share your love of copper pieces.

I need to find some late blooming plants and add them. Maybe next year, no more garden purchases for me this year. I enjoyed my visit to the lush and the green. :) Happy Saturday.
