On The Point, we talk about our Cape and Islands summer gardens with horticulturist Roberta Clark. Drought conditions have caused wilting, and worse, for many plants and some trees. How will this affect landscapes, going into the fall and winter? We also take note of what what species have thrived in this hot dry summer. Callers from around the region join in with questions and comments. Mindy Todd hosts.
