With the temperature in the 90s, everything out back is drying out horribly quickly. I've been watering what I can (which is a tricky question of judgment: these are native plants that don't like too much moisture, for the most part, but there again, some of them seem to be unequivocally withering overnight). But these sage plants seem to love it: their seed heads are dry and crinkly in the right way, and I hope that means that lots of self-seeding has already taken place. Ditto with the poppies. And I'm hoping that I can keep most of the other plants gasping along until the temperatures drop a bit later this week. Of course, I, too, rather think that I'm developing withering tendencies.
