Texas isn't alone in the drought, our temps are high, but there are burn bans and the system is dry all the way to Nebraska, east toward Tenneesse, and westward, well, even there it is dry. Where fires were fought, they were mostly set by deliberate causes, but this isn't really new to Texas- there is a poem online you can read, I have read it since a child- Hell in Texas- and it describes this year really well. Was always 'fond' of the poem, sorta in a humorless way. We have simply become accustomed to our wet last few years, spoiled us rotten, chuckle. So, what plants go forward the next few years to see us thru the drier days?
