Houston, where I am close to, varies from drouth to flood. Hard on every plant. Yet we spend more time with chainsaws and backhoes clearing out the underbrush - and gators and hogs- and learn not to shoot ourselves over weather or plants.
All plants leach nutrients from the soil they live in. When those conditions change, a new plant springs up that needs a different set of conditions and so the new plant thrives- For awhile.
