Yes, the extreme drought is affecting my garden. The photo above is from August last year with the same plants (tomatoes, peppers, assorted basils, and alyssum) as the photo below, which is from this year. One addition is a chamomile plant spilling over off to the side. I water pretty much every day because the heat dries out the garden beds. The mulch is the paper used to cushion deliveries inside of boxes since there is no grass to collect. The plants are smaller, and the yield will be less. However, I'm happy we'll get food, even if it isn't the normal amount. It will still be delicious.
I can't leave you with this sad photo, so I'm adding a brag photo (below).Hurray for wave petunias!
