In this particular spot of our U. S. A., which lies on a shelf sloping south toward the Vaca Valley in Solano County, California, cacti have been grown out of doors for six years with considerable success. Several drought resistant trees and shrubs were also doing well until the wet winter of 1939-'40.
Then two of the best, Atriplex hymenelytra and Fremontia mexicana, succumbed to the excess moisture.
