After eight days of triple digit heat, eight days of rain and thunder showers, Next Year is looking worse for wear. Receiving rain was a blessing and the rain is non discriminating: it provides moisture for trees, shrubs, flowers and weeds! Some gardening observations:
- Fall begins September 22--which means there is nine more weeks of summer. Mother Nature what's on your agenda?
- I raked leaves today. The dogwood tree and other trees have been so stressed from the heat and lack of moisture they had started to drop their leaves.
- The day lilies are making a come back--they are tough as nails which is one reason I love them.
- Cutting the grass after a heavy rain takes more time than a normal cutting.
- The lavender will most likely have to be replaced.
