We received 1/2" of rain on June 20th. It always amazes me how much better the plants look after a rainfall, even a small one, compared to being watered by me!
The garden is doing a bit better, but I'm definitely going to be adding more shade to the yard. Right now I'm considering a smaller honey locust. I like the ferny look, plus we get a lot of wind through the back yard, so less possible tree damage. It will give more shade to the back of the house, it does well in dry conditions, no messy seeds, or disease, or pests- so "they" say. Plus it grows fast!
This is the Sunburst honeylocust.
Today I saw a monarch butterfly!
