| I just had a total hip replacement and can't negotiate the rear stairs to be able to get to the garden, not that I can do any work there. I have 2 plants that are barely surviving, but this rain should help. |

| Sorry to hear about your health issue. Hope the hip replacement goes well and you'll soon be handling those stairs with ease. And from what I have heard on the news, glad to hear you are getting some rain too. Dave |

| Sorry to hear... maybe hire someone to install a drip irrigation? I just installed one for my container garden, it was quite easy. Just have it set on a timer to automatically water. Total cost to do it yourself was about $50, I'm sure someone could do your garden for a small fee. |

| Today marks 4 weeks since the surgery. According to the surgeon, I can drive if I feel up to it. I don't. I'll see how I feel in another week. The new physical therapy left me hurting. |

| I now can negotiate the back stairs which allows me to reach the garden. Tomorrow I will see what is left. |

| I very much hope your plants hung on for you. I'm not familiar with Fl growing, but will you be able to start some new ones for the fall if not? |
