I've been watering my new red maple trees at night. They don't seem to be failing but they aren't thriving, either.
I just make sure the outside feral kitties have plenty of fresh water. I go out and dump a big container of ice in their water bowl a couple of times a day. The birds seem to like swimming in it, too!  |
It's been pretty hot and dry in our area as well... Western suburb of Chicago.
We had a day here and there under 90; but with no rain, am concerned about the plants. Watering the ones in pots; but not too good at doing shrubs (standing in front and back dragging hose not in my future. Hubby will go every now and then; but does not realize shrubs need water; especialy the rose bushes. Oh Well.
Seems so trivial when others are having too much of a good thing and it becomes a disaster. With the fires and rain...what a combination. They are in need of a lot of prayers.
