Yes you're quite right Terry either too much or to little,although we rarely get too much. When we first moved here there was no garden to speak of and I wondered why, I know now, it really is a diffucult place to garden. I have planted all native shrubs and many drought resistant grasses and things like Agaves, but with the exception of the Agaves most things are struggling.When we do get some rain however the place transforms, almost within hours the dead crunchy grass starts to show shades of green and within a few days everything is green as, for miles and miles. Never seems to last long though because the rain is so sporadic. Never mind we will still perservere.
