With an outdoor temperature of 28 deg C , humidity of 70% and a very high UV index, nobody has to convince me to stay indoors!
Even the lupine is droopy
When these African Daisies were transplanted 2 days ago, the weather forecast this weekend was cloudy with a 40-60% chance of rain. Now, they are getting cooked so I had to quickly do some creative thinking to protect them!Under a burlap canopy
Bidens 'Radiant Yellow' is one of those exotic annuals I also transplanted a few days ago. It has a soft,fern-y foliage with the bright yellow flowers. I guess I'll have to wait and see how it does this summer.
This annual plant has a fleshy, velvety, yellow and green variegated leaves called 'Golden Globes', Lysimachia procumbens. Another low lying plant which, I hope, will grow aggressively to create a living mulch in my perennial bed.
The tomatoes and peas are flourishing! The warm weather and some rain we've had early this week is just what the garden doctor prescribed for these Roma tomatoes. There are basil, onions and marigolds in this square meter of raised bed as well although they aren't too visible in this picture.
