We really need a couple days of slow & steady rain however.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743102355360873845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157796120640152479.post-28851905139926383722012-07-19T12:02:49.001-07:002012-07-19T12:02:49.001-07:00Hang in there.....I've been out watering with ...Hang in there.....I've been out watering with watering cans for some weeks now.

Luckily for me it doesn't include us yet. We haven't had our normal rain and have had less than a half an inch in the last three weeks, but we still aren't desperate yet. Though I have had a couple of my landscaping plants that were put in last year start to show some serious stress. I watered them. The leaves on the raspberries (which are just starting to set fruit) were starting to turn brown. I watered them too. I don't ever remember watering raspberries at my last house. And I've never watered landscape plants except for their first year.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.com
