A Second Look

This is the first week in several that it has not been raining during my Second Look .  I found this a nice change of pace. Blooms are continuing with something new blooming every day. Also, we found a not-so-pretty cicada still in its shell while we were planting some new bushes. The cicada invasion has begun in some places, but we don't expect them until later in the month. I can wait.

Here is what I found this week during a Second Look.

Rhododendron




Star of Bethlehem
