In L.A.?! What part? Maybe down by the coast? 🤔 My part of the city is just too hot and dry in the summer. We get down to single digit humidity when the Santa Anas roll through, and well over 100 degrees a lot of days in the summer. I would have thought we're just too warm for them here.
Hollywood. Raleigh studios. They had them all along the outside.
Interesting! I suppose if they got enough shade and water they could handle the ambient air conditions. :)
Alternately, they leave them there until they die and replant them. That just occurred to me and it's the sort of wasteful thing the entertainment industry does.
TBH I had the same thought; there are entire companies that will just rotate the plants out for businesses.
btw, I think I recognize you from reddit! :)
Probably. I was a power user there. No more though. Sorry, I wish I remembered you.
Yeah, I'm leaving a lot behind too. It's fine; platforms come and go. Once a couple of communities I follow over there have active Lemmy equivalents I won't be back much at all.
Create them here, add content, soon you will get help.
Yep, already created one of them with no intention of retaining ownership over the long term. If it gets busy I'm turning it over to someone else. 😂
