The heat will be here quickly so it will be nice to savor the 70s and 80s forecast for next week. We've been over-average for rainfall each month so far this year, but those months are normally our driest so I guess that's not saying much.We had a lot of rain this winter- our old average maybe. Waiting to warm up. Then too hot and fire season. Praying for rain in September. We have a couple buck brush shrubs, a couple small crape myrtles, a couple oleander (deer proof), and a huge red bud ready to bloom, a bunch of oaks and wild trees. I heard you talk in’.
What is buck brush? We have a number of crape myrtles and oaks, too. I've had a hard time keeping a red bud alive so have given up on them. We've been allowing some native trees -bayberry and hackberry I think and several types of fir - to grow in various places and have transplanted native shrubs that grow behind our back fence and our neighbor's back fence. Also love Turk's Cap. Natives thrive and look nice when cared for, while nursery stock no matter how pretty tends to die as time goes by. Though I can't help but try something new each year just in case.
