Today would have been Wulfmann's birthday, his 66th.
The heat wave we were supposed to get over the weekend completely wimped out, and Saturday's "spare the air" day appears to have been an overreaction, which was good because everybody drove to parks and so on. I potted up the other two volunteer tomato plants after scrounging up enough soil, and today I finally located the mysterious broad-leafed thing in the front lawn, cleared some long grass from the base of the fence beside my purple irises, and put it in so that it can be determined whether it wants to be another kind of iris, a palm tree, or what. A labourer who was yet again hosing down the patio at the vacant house watched me with interest. I think he'd been doing concrete work, which at least suggests the owner isn't going to demolish the place.
( Succulents, some potted. )
