G'day Joanie...
You said: "...We haven't had rain here in...hmmm... over a month?...".
Well...Phoenix and Tucson are saying no rain in 103 days...
Here in Oracle, it's closer to 4 months.
By golly, gee wiz...makes me wish that we were moving back to California, rather than 20 miles closer to Tucson...
We do the rain dance (some times the snow dance) here from time to time...you know, the one where you go out and dance when the rain or snow starts falling...
The other one, dancing to get it to rain, doesn't work well.
We call ours "dances with rain".
Have a good day...
Pat

THE ONLY WAY: Always remember, and don't ever forget, that whatever you read here is not cast in concrete... the intent of any advice is to help. In no way should you feel that I’m saying that my way is the only way…heaven forbid! I've seen far too much of the "my way or the highway" attitude in bonsai as well as in other areas of life.
