My largest Hop Tree is not close enough and hasn't been watered enough lately...some of the leaves are turning yellow. I managed to get a hose out near enough today and have a sprinkler going now that will reach it. Trying to keep the Sweet Everlastings that are a bit closer to the yard alive also. Not easy...wild animals have broken the ends of two hoses that were connected to each other so I could water. This...in spite of all the water I put out for the wildlife!
I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. E. B.White
