Re: Rain

Thanks Rich! We have gotten some too!!! Not a lot (will have to check  
the gauge tomorrow), but anything will help. I have an 'Autumn  
Sunset' maple that has been in the ground 6 years and is about 30ft  
tall and it looks awful. Has dropped a third of its leaves and the  
rest are a sickly grey-green. God knows if it will survive.
