yard round up on 6/22

We got a little rain over the weekend - nothing to get excited about but I'll take what I can get! Most of the activity this week has been at my mailbox. My gladiolas are in full bloom and my daylilies are still going strong. I know it doesn't look like much in the pictures below, but you should've seen this mailbox area when we bought the house - it was pretty ugly and color was nonexistent!

Can you see the little yellow jacket chillin' in one of the blooms? It's a bit blurry...sorry
Poor purple gladiolas - too tall and top heavy to stand upright on
their own. Notice the string holding them up...

Red Canna Lily finally blooms and it's about twice the size this year as it was last year!
A close up of the bloom - kinda funky looking at this stage...
