Hello and welcome to GBBD where gardeners around the globe post what is blooming in their gardens.  It has been horribly hot the past week and that was due to a tropical wave in the area. It has passed us with very little rain. 

OnThursday I had a group visit from retirees from the UWI  who were touring the island. They thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
 To see more blooming gardens please go over to Carol the brainchild of GBBD at may dreams gardens. Have a great weekend gardening!

 Gerbera daisy

 Hello and welcome to Garden Bloggers Bloom Day  where gardeners around the globe show what is blooming in their gardens.  We are still going through a drought and things do not look good for my island home. Even if we get the rains at this late stage it will not help us for this year. Our water is sourced from underground aquifers and it takes many months for surface water to fully penetrate to refill these underground aquifers. 
To see more blooming gardens please  go over to Carol's garden at may dreams gardens .
 Wishing everyone peace and happiness in this tumultuous world.
