Alpine last 48 hrs good rains up your way. Alittle less at my place however before that 26 days of solid above 30 degrees and not a drop so proberly made it hard on your "apprentice"

Hi kc , a couple f flowers are out of season, me thinks , its a real bugger about my stock , shari happens .

Hi Matthew real good rains but that didnt help the tree's , they were dead before the rains came . The apprentice has had weekly lessons on how to water and which stock to look at as indicators of dry pots . Maybe I should have got the wife to do the job at least they would have got wet . I have only been watering once a day this summer so its been a mild heat not an extreme heat like the previous few years .

Cheers Guys alpine
