Under the Solano Sun

For those of you that don't know me, I'm a pilot with a major airline and on a Thursday, January 18th, 2018 I was on a layover on the Big Island of Hawaii in Kona.

Not every garden mystery can be solved, but it is fun to research and try to figure things out. A few years ago, I noticed that daffodils and snowdrops in a certain non-irrigated area of my yard had very short stems compared to their normal growth. These are not petite varieties.

It finally happened! The back yard has drip irrigation, complete with a timer controller. I am still working on tweaking the system, but I can see the difference already: evidence of a regular and evenly-watered garden. The bay laurel (Laurus nobilis) that I repotted a few weeks ago has grown fast.
