Remarkable is right. I was foolish enough to think that okra always grew well here. This year it's been just about a waste. We're breaking the record for hottest summer ever. I've uprooted some of the plants, trying to save water & didn't want to see them wither and die. I may pull the pumpkins if they don't set more fruit by next week, otherwise will feel obligated to water them.
