Not much except for the few flowering plants that don't drink much. It is so dry here right now that even our grass is drying up and we live in an area where few people have or use sprinklers as we usually have as much rain as we need the entire summer. Oh we do have a couple of crepe Myrtles blooming.

Just the Shasta daisies. The Clethra will be late this year because of the long, cool, cloudy spring.

"Pewter Pink," "Milk Chocolate," "Magic Charm," "Pink Praise," "Hyperion," "Jaws" and "Royal Frosting" daylilies, plus a few I don't know the names of


Ground cherries which have sort of tan flowers with a purple ring in the center


"Prairie Sun," "Indian Summer" and I forget the name of the 3rd black-eyed Susan cultivar I have this year -- it has very tiny flowers in the usual shade of road stripe yellow


"Crazy Cayenne" coreopsis in sizzling orangey-brown


"Sensation" cosmos in pink, burgundy and white


Bee balm in red and lavender


Tall phlox in hot pink, pale pink with a white eye, Valentine pink with a neon-pink eye, and pure white


Purple spiderwort


Hostas in dispirited-looking lavender and white


Borage in pure sky blue

I have almost the same situation. Only two of my 5 daylilies bloomed this year, the Shasta daisies are almost done, and there are three fading flowers on the hydrangea. The moles and voles killed my coneflowers, but the pink Clethra, Summersweet, has just started.
