The Spring rains are here and keeping everything nice and wet. Even with this downpour, not much hits the plants on the patio so I STILL have to water even on a day like today. Saved up gallon jugs though so I can more easily water the plants instead of having to go glass by glass like I started the year out.
The cacao tree though is more spoiled and still enjoys spring water from the bottle. I tried to give it plain tap water and I really don't think it liked it. Now it has some new growth again and I'm not nearly so worried about it. At first I thought it might just be the transplant shock from being repotted but that was more a guess and a wait and see situation.
One of our friends was telling us she moved to a place with a stream nearby. I'm guessing it's better than this one. It's kind of a stream but it only has water when it rains. Still I think this would be considered a riparian wetland. It only takes a little water and a few of the right organisms to thrive there to classify.
