The birch-like tree in the back yard appears gone, but that isn't so surprising considering the adverse climate of CA for a water-loving tree. The gum-like tree out front surprises me, though. It has a southern exposure, true, but it's favorably located for rain drain water, and should be drought-tolerant. No sign of life from it yet. A third tree isn't reacting to spring either. The drought is unforgiving.
[UPDATE: The gum tree finally is starting to leaf out. It's on its Antipodean schedule, it seems.]
