The Aster Potschke is blooming full.
Someone or something smashed my Salvia elegans. When I stuck my hand in there to pull it up a cat jumped out and I got stung by a honeybee (all over the aster which had gone down with it). I had to tie up the sage and aster, wait for the sting to settle down.
All the activity startled this mantis out of protective hiding.
it's a jungle out there! my garden is still blooming away. we should be seeing a hard frost or freeze tonight or tomorrow near boston. sigh.
