When the rain stopped

A small part at the back of the house, I took these photos on Monday just after it stopped raining.



My little Lime tree is perking up now.

Re: When the rain stopped

Thank you all. I have 2 Lime trees Mags, both still very young and small. The lack of rain and the heat has held them back such a lot this year but they are beginning to rally round well now, especially the older one in the photo. Strangely limes are not grown commercially here, I donīt know why and they are expensive to buy, if you can get them. I like limes and I use them often. I also slice and freeze them, as I do with lemons, and use instead of ice cubes. No more lemons this year though, the lemon tree was getting to big and has had a very severe cut back, but already itīs growing well again.
