Your post made me smile! I guess it's too late to start another crop, although in this heat, they're growing like crazy. I'm going to search the internet for the resistant zuke you told me about. <BR/><BR/>Thanks again!!Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12055336594227985626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-49673267544340583112008-07-15T12:51:00.000-04:002008-07-15T12:51:00.000-04:00Cindy: Thanks, I'll try breaking one up and see wh...Cindy: Thanks, I'll try breaking one up and see what I find.<BR/><BR/>Chey: Hmm no petals. It looks so much like my chamomile blossoms, but then again, you can always tell chamomile by scent. You don't even need to look at it.<BR/><BR/>Tam: It is the hot spot. I keep finding new bugs, most of them good or at least innocuous. I saw an assassin bug this morning and yesterday I saw a Mason wasp. I've never seen one of those before. It is such a pretty wasp. If it would just stop flying for a second so I could take a photo, but that one and some other wasps I really want photos of are obviously hunters. They quickly buzz from flower to flower, looking for prey. But they never stop to drink like my other wasps and bees. I did see one of them land once when it had caught a fly, but sadly no camera with me.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-78028228036137724782008-07-15T10:21:00.000-04:002008-07-15T10:21:00.000-04:00All the reasons I don't like zucchini (besides the...All the reasons I don't like zucchini (besides the taste) and roses. <BR/><BR/>I liked your party though.

My blooms are very similar to your chamomile, however seem to be lacking petals at present.<BR/><BR/>Sorry to hear about all of your unexpected guests. Seems like they're everywhere. Sounds like your rose is growing on you. And it has a sentimental history of sorts to boot:).cheyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13367266564799325131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-75071094532489673052008-07-14T19:33:00.000-04:002008-07-14T19:33:00.000-04:00Hi Daphne- I have been drying chamomile in my oven...Hi Daphne- I have been drying chamomile in my oven for years and it has always worked well for me. I blogged about it a little while back. I know they are dry by sight now but you could try breaking one blossom in half and if it sort of crumbles and falls apart it is dry enough. Hope that is helpful.<BR/><BR/>I am still anxiously awaiting my zucchini to begin producing...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
