Thursday Beau mentioned how much plants had grown with just a little rain. It reminded me of 2022. Here are a couple of pictures taken in May after the fire:
And here is what that area looked like in August:
Rain does make a difference.

That is such an improvement! I just love the way the mountains in the distance are greening up.
Yes!
Now that is a real difference! I love it both ways but I prefer the green of course. We can see a marked difference there will be no flowers on the Hibiscus and it only has to rain a few drops and the next day it has flowers and if I pour water on them which I do three times a week they don’t flower they want the rain
That’s interesting!
Hooray for natures irrigation!!!
Yes! We don’t take it for granted.
Wonderful photos after the rain. We need a little rain over here.
God bless.
Fingers crossed for you.
Great illustrations! Tom still misses Arizona, but last evening he allowed how an old friend commented on a photo he’d posted (FB) … “It’s so very green!”
I know you love it now, but how did you decide to move?
Big difference for sure!

The rejuvenation power of plants that look so fragile is amazing!!
Yes. 🙂
It’ amazing how they can survive a fire and come right back.
They’re New Mexico locusts. They thrive after fires.
That is quite the contrast. We have had a very wet Spring, and the grass and trees are all looking so lush and healthy. But once the summer heat hits, the ground dries out very quickly.
That happens here too in in the spring/early summer. But in the old days we used to have a rainy season in July and August. Nothing is predictable now.
Fantastic!

Yes, it’s amazing what a little rain can do. That’s a big difference in those pictures.
