Drizzly rain has returned to the "Sunshine" Coast. We have only had a few mls of rain. enough to keep people under cover. Again it should get to about 26 degrees today.
Some plants in the garden have not handled the hot weather (40 degrees) we had last Saturday. This plant in a pot is showing signs of 'sunburn' and quite a few of the leaves look a little worse for wear. This photo does not show where the leaves have been burnt but they are quite a light brown color, not their usual green! The photo below shows how the plants in the former birdbath have been overcome by that very hot day.
The tree at the front of our house had been earmarked for removal. It was recovering from being attacked by wasps but it is very close to our concrete driveway and also is surrounded by two storm water drains, one from our place, the other from our neighbour's home! Eventually the tree's roots would have caused damage to the driveway and they would have blocked the two drains. These machines sure get rid of the tree very quickly and easily.
