State of the Garden

I still need to plant flowers in a couple of areas and put down mulch.  I need to hurry with the planting, because it is getting blazing hot around here.

My garden areas have mixed results.

The bottom-most bed is going crazy...the petunias are overtaking, crowding out the marigolds, but the begonias aren't doing half bad:



It is hard to see, but in the middle of the marigolds is the yellow-headed stepchild.  When I planted it, it didn't have any blooms and I put it dead center.  It looks as if I did it on purpose, with the orange ones encircling it, but I was not intending to have yellow in my garden this year:



The flowers in this bed, higher up on the wall, are the same size as when I planted them (except for that one petunia):



Half of this bed is doing very well...the other half - not so much:



Same with this one:



I don't know what to do.  My level of expertise has been exhausted.  Besides watering and weeding...I got nothin.'
