I know it hit 108 today and maybe higher. It's 99 right now at 8:47pm.
My neighbor is in the hospital and I have been trying to keep her plants and mine alive for the past few weeks. (have them all here at my house. Finally brought some in the house tonight. Her aloe is looking really sick. The outer leaves are getting thin and droopy. Our city put us on water ration of only watering at night 2 days a week. Some yards, like my neighbor's, are so dry they feel like straw. Ours looks fine for now. We have had to water around the house with soaker hoses, trying to keep the foundation from getting any worse than it already is. Our inside and outside doors are sticking and I don't know from one day to the next which ones will open again once shut.

I had more but lost some. The largest is a climber that is about 12 ft high x 18ft wide Seven Sisters Rose. It only blooms once a year in the spring, but it's worth it.
