I didn't water my garden for the past three weeks.  With the amount of rain we've had, I can go away for a month and not have to worry about watering.  That's how much rain we've had for the past three weeks.  Looking at the forecast, it doesn't seem to let up anytime soon.  On the bright side, despite the lack of sun, plants have been growing faster.

Next time when it rains, grab your camera! The best time to take pictures of the garden is when the sky is overcast, so next time when the weather is bad don't put away your camera.  Overcast lighting is the best for macro shots, and the rain makes the colors pop.  Hope it's nice and sunny in your part of the world!

I love travelling to different places and checking out unique plants. The climate at the Grand Canyon is really different than New York, I was fascinating by different cactus and plants along the way.
