I think the Modesto ash (a Southwest native) is fairly drought-tolerant, so it's not going to turn brown as quickly as the redwood trees in unwatered front yards.Gerhard Bock (Succulents and More)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17583583634141549759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-25167305291783291792015-11-05T09:14:49.636-08:002015-11-05T09:14:49.636-08:00You're very welcome.
