Still no rain.
Well its dry and hot here still in Chester Cheshire and the weeds are disappearing fast having to resort to some other foods on the menu.
My indian stars tucking into grass thankfully its something they eat and enjoy as well as weeds . And here's Mrs stone my graeca graeca from Oran region tucking into evening primrose flowers she love's them Darren

No rain here either Darren. I did think when it clouded over we would get a downpour.
No such luck Weeds gone here to, relying on the odd weed and lots of flowers.

Dan if you have rain i'm sure it will be on its way here soon i hope, Mmmm but perhaps i shouldn't say that it wont go when it does arrive .
Sandy thanks to your picture of tree mallow i found a garden with it in and the branches hang over the fence plenty of flowers for my small and younger ones now but they will not hold out forever now the evening primrose is in flower i can also pick these but again there few and far a part till the rain arrives Darren

My grass is brown, but my weeds are thriving (watering cans, watering cans, and more back-breaking watering cans).

Just come over here to Ireland. We've only had a couple of days of sunshine so everything is nice and lush! Honeysuckle in flower absolutley everywhere in the ditches, and lovely fat weeds..............I suppose sometimes rainy Ireland has its advantages
