It's been a wet and rainy month here in central Indiana -
news reports say it's actually the 4th wettest month in Indiana history (since 1895) and record-setting rainfall for June (9.03 inches). No kidding! It's been great for the lawn, but I noticed some other plants not enjoying the constant moisture as much. In particular, I noticed the Royal Candles and Silver Heart struggling, and found some yellow leaves on my Linden tree in the front yard due to the constant rainfall.

| Noblesville, IN - June 26, 2015, it looks like my dry riverbed turned into an actual riverbed! |
 |
| Veronica spicata ‘Royal Candles’ looking a little flooded, this one didn't respond well to poor drainage and the wettest June on record in Indiana |
 |
| Brunnera macrophylla 'Silver Heart' not too happy about the super wet conditions. I do see new leaves growing, hopefully it can dry out a bit and pull through. It looks like there is also some slug damage (or some other critter) maybe worsened by the moisture? |
