Welp the tree I planted in my yard last year is dying from the heat now … Got on that too late I guess. I might try a cactus next.

That stinks …

Are you able to give it long soaking waterings, or possibly even shade it for part of the day? We’ve done this for some of our trees that were really affected by drought conditions two years ago with good results.

All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it’s animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.

See also our Environment community, which is focused on weather, climate, climate change, and stuff like that.

(It’s not mandatory, but we also encourage providing a description of your image(s) for accessibility purposes! See here for a more detailed explanation and advice on how best to do this.)
