There’s A Heatwave: It’s Official

 I’ve been very judicious in my watering in these hot days and nights. So far everything is responding well. I keep thinking of Ken Druse’s admonition to water the garden, not just the plant. This gives the roots plenty of room and reason to spread out. I’ve learned to water the soil in pots not to soak also the flowers and leaves. I think in some mostly shady areas like the perennial garden area, I’ve been guilty of overwatering pots. So they have not done well. An old bozo can learn new tricks!
