It's amazing how in temperature well over 40 Centigrade (>100 F) these flowers and grass can flourish.

Lovely shot Amir. Plants are really strong. They are under the snow in winter, and bloom next spring, in Hokkaido :-)

They must get plenty of water. Down further south in Texas, for example, in the Austin and San Antonio areas, hot dry summers sometimes produce watering bans. Then you get brown grass and wilted flowers. This summer, at least in this part of the state, there has been an unusually high amount of rainfall.

@Twelvebit: We had a lot of rainfall as well. This is my first year in Texas and I heard from many that it was an unusual summer. Thanks for your info.
@Brian: Thanks a lot Brian.

Whoa, these are such vivid reds, complementing so well the lush greens and earthy stones! And I'm amazed at the resilience of these flowers! Another truly excellent composition, Amir. :)
