well it was 111 yesterday and more of the same today, no rain in sight, and ALL 4th of july fireworks have been canceled, and they are asking that no one have outdoor cooking. my Adeniums so far are surviving, but the rest of the plants look rather forlawn, and speaking of lawns I no longer have one, I have Burnt grass.

too, too hot.....

Hot here too.Temps around a hundred today with heat index well above that.I dread my Saturday market tomorrow.

Hot AND humid...
not a good combo

I saw that heat wave you are experiencing on the news. I hope your plants survive. It finally stopped raining here, a little less humid today and sunny. Everything in my yard grew a foot in a week during all that rain. I need to get it back under control. Plus the spiders all seem to have appeared overnight and when I try and get through the jungle I'm too often staring at 8 eyes. I'm trying to let more of them stay this year but I don't know if I will be able to. They really creep me out. I keep telling myself that they eat mosquitoes and other bad bugs but every time I run into a web I get the willies.

Sorry to hear about that extreme heat Doris. On the flipside, better to be cautious than to be in a fire dilemma.

Stay indoor Doris. The plants can re-place.

I feel for you guys keep hydrated and try to stay OUT OF THE hell fire sun

i saw a sign on fb forgot to save it but it kinda sums up your weather


Satin called ....
and whats his weather back!!!!!

i am feeling lucky?? we are to be at a COOL 95 for a few days but we did get the rain so everything is growing like weeds BUT my potted plants back to watering everyday maybe 2x a day for some under potted ( which is most of them).

Well we had thunder last night and I was sure praying it meant RAIN but no such luck, Northern Indiana got some but not us, it is now 7:45 AM and 86

Don't worry about the Adeniums and over 100 degree temps. I live in the Phoenix area and it runs those temps all summer. My Adeniums love it!

Well this is how my b eautiful garden looks now, and I have been watering every night, but now that has been stopped also.

When you say stopped watering, do you mean watering not allowed by your city?

That's right

I can relate Doris last year we had record high temps and awful drought conditions for the whole summer the lake even dried up. I lost some trees and but my adeniums f made it thru and so did those terrible little spider mites everytime I think they're gone they show up again but I am hanging in there on the fight until I win. Here are some of the blooms from this year....Ron

Spectacular white, Ron.

Wow, Ron. Nice.

Thanks all I have been trying. SSSHHHH I think I beat the spider mites finally!!!

Beautiful blooms Ron
