Just some blustery weather here, like I kept saying. And only about two inches of rain. People sure panicked, haha. The grocery stores had lines twenty people long.

Oh, I am beginning to know which Adeniums are my favorites, more than twenty followed me into the house! Some of the tall ones outside blew over, ho hum. I doubt if any trees were knocked down on the island.

It's been proven that rocks are BAD in the bottom of pots. They actually promote 'perched' water, water that should have drained away, but stays there and rots. Have you ever repotted anything and found no roots in the middle of the soilball, and all roots around the edges? Perched water causes that. The interior roots die.
