rain rain
Category: thoughts & plans | Posted: Wed Jul 01, 2009 6:39 pm finally, after a lot of false starts, it looks like rainy season has really started. our well is almost full. and it is cooler too. some of my plants are not very happy getting wet. specially roses, they simply droop and not much flowers now. i have to start trimming all the hibiscus and ixora . they are growing wild. this is one visitor we had the other day. these lay theit eggs on the tender leaves of lemon trees, and the egg hatch and the larvae grow eating the leaves. once i let them eat up a plant and there were no leaves on the tree in two days time. now, i remove the eggs when i see them, still, some remain and become caterpillars.

We've had rain here over the last few days but it's so hot that the ground dries before it's had a chance to really get wet. We could do with a real downpour to help the garden along.
No rain to be seen here in Sweden. Login or register to leave a comment. |
