I located 2 water barrels for the water we didn't get this summer and now that I don't need them, we are getting buckets of it. Last night alone I woke up to hear rain coming down so hard, I couldn't get back to sleep. On the other hand, my nasturtiums as doing amazingly well as is the clematis?? that I know nothing about. I always thought that it took a lot of care and attention, but apparent not. This plant is winding its way up onto the balcony which should look awesome (I hope) next summer. And I don't know if I mentioned it earlier but both holly bushes are covered in berries. Nothing last year and this year covered. Will have to look up how to create new little plants because they are quite showy at the moment!! So... how is your garden looking?? If you need some rain, just ask and I will try to send some your way. Definitely have more than we need here!!

I will try to dig up some photos. I am starting to wonder if there isn't a plant that isn't out there!!

I have read many of the members here are getting rain. Not much of a garden here, fall just started. Lots of evergreens.

We have started pulling out anything that isn't doing well. The garden is so over crowded at the moment. I think that we had a couple living here who couldn't decide what to buy, so they bought one of everything. As for the rain... we just got dumped on yet again today.

@Hate2Iron Maybe the rain will help out and then the sunshine will visit.

We are hoping for rain. I grew nasturtiums from seed a couple of years ago and had good luck with them. Our holly bushes have seeds, but all I have left growing are my couple of pots of leaf lettuce.

I'm definitely going to plant more nasturtiums next year... The previous owners liked shrubs the most... I'm ready for some color. The holly bushes, I want to research to see if I can take cuttings. I would love more of them!!!

It's strange how plants can do really well one year and not so well the next.

This is only our second year here, but I really wasn't expecting anything when last year was a no show!! This was a nice surprise!!!
