All the hope for that garden seems to get carried away by the lack of rain, heading into summer. As a Meteorologist, I always hear people complaining about needing a tropical disturbance to swing through and bring us a few inches of rain. That is all great in theory but, from experience that will not do it. This lonely flower you see to the left was supposed to be a group of flowers. This guy apparently beat the others out for every last stitch of water. The dirt in my garden is dry as a bone. What we need is a slow steady rain to help this poor guy bring his friends back from the dead.
Here is the latest tropical info:
