Hot, Humid, Dry | Caladium Color | East Side Project Standstill | Antique & Garden Showcase

Well, the weather has probably been the most uncooperative for outdoor projects for the longest period of time I can remember in recent years. It was difficult to get things planted in spring due to too much rain (and I still have unplanted things under the plant lights). Now, it's the total opposite with scorching heat and dry weather. It has been so hot that it has halted progress on the East Side Project.
Today is the "birthday" of Antique and Garden Showcase the KZbin channel. And, I thought it would be fitting to take you back to our "roots" so-to-speak and talk about the caladiums that brought so many of us together through being featured on Garden Answer.

I love it when gardeners have a 'story' behind their plants. How sweet that the different day lilly's conjure up memories of teaching and also gathering the colorful ones with your mother on the farmstead. I agree, the 2 urns on the porch look beautiful - sometimes 'less is more'. Sending you some of our recent rainy days ☔

Don't apologize we just like to see the goings on, whatever that might be. Yes your caladiums are beautiful as are your other flowers.

We are sill waiting for our rain. You'll see the effects of our summer heat in Saturday's video!

It's feast or famine in Oklahoma also! My coleus and caladiums are thriving though!

Just wait until you see tomorrow's video... We haven't had rain. It's a disaster zone here (relatively speaking to how it normally looks).
