I have been strangely attentive to my plants this summer and many of them have been thriving. But in the last three days, no matter how much I water, the mint has burned up in the heat. Not happy with that.
Put in a plumbago and a flowering Mexican oregano today, both of which are supposed to thrive in full sunlight. Also got a flower that I wanted but don't know the name. The salesman called it a bird of paradise, but it's not. It's something that starts out yellow at the top and turns bright orange at the bottom. Bahamas or Bermuda were part of the real name. I think.
