It's been hot and very dry. I'm just doing spot watering...my roses every couple of days, the plumies about twice a week. The grass in back is completely dead now, and the centipede weeds up front are half so. The trees aren't looking as stressed as they have been in similar situation (they haven't drooped or lost leaves yet, and the bark is still good) but they're mostly in the front/east and are sheltered from the majority of the hot afternoon.
I put out a pot full of water for the wildlife. I know the deer visit it as I'm finding poo in the driveway.
