This has been an odd end-of-summer. About half the plants pictured are blooming outside of their typical season. This is, I think, maybe because of being well fed and living in a greenhouse. It’s been raining everywhere in New Mexico this summer except the north, where I live. Today the first significant rain in a month arrived - all of about .25” (6 mm). The long drought gets longer.
