One sure sign mosquitoes are getting bad? They start creeping into your photos.

| It seems that Asian tiger mosquitoes like gardenias, too. |
Gardenias and mosquitoes tend to come out at about the same time in our garden, prompted by warm, humid nights. I'm still adapting to the sudden jump to mid-90s summer temperatures. But the fragrant gardenias are a compensation. The gardenia pictured above is Kleim's Hardy, hardy to zone 7 and the earliest to bloom in our garden.

lovely blooms and one nasty mosquito...ours are out too and they can be as big as bees...
LOL! Oh how I dislike mosquitoes but they love me!
Mosquitoes love me, too. Much more than they like my husband!
What a gorgeous bloom! You can't blame the mosquito for hanging on to it :)
Ginny, I'd be hovering by the bloom, too, if it weren't for the mosquitoes :)
We have suddenly had a bumper crop of mosquitoes too but no gardenias to compensate :-(.
What a fantastic capture! They don't bother me as much as others. Thank goodness. :)
I have a beautiful gardenia which seems to ATTRACT mosquitos ?? Is this possible ?
