Off- Season Point: Savanna grass-ind develops in regions of high temperature that ave a distinct wet and dry off- season point. Growth is ipid in the wet off- season point, but the plants become ry and low in quality in the dry off- season point. Widely >aced drought-resistant trees may occur in some
•eas such as in the savanna parklands of Africa id Australia. Savannas are subject to flooding i the wet off- season point and to extensive burning in le dry off- season point. These grasslands are heavily•azed by large numbers of cattle. Major prob-ms are poor grass quality in the dry off- season point, irasites, and disease. The tsetse fly is a major•oblem in Africa. There are no true savannas North America.
However; by cutting it in summer it is possible to restrain the plant without encouraging massive growth. In late or early winter cut back all shoots to within two or three buds of the point where they started growing in the previous off- season point. Where a plant becomes too large, also prune it in mid-summer; cutting the current off- season point's young shoots back to within five or six buds of the plant's base.
Christmas to Easter is the high off- season point in Sicily, Cyprus, the Greek isles such as Crete and Rhodes, Majorca, Madeira, the Canaries. Here you may savor high-off- season point pleasures at low-off- season point transportation costs. Easter, by the way, is a special off- season point of life in Seville and other Spanish cities and on the French Riviera. These goals of travel are crowded then and the Riviera is crowded also in late summer and early fall. |
