I love watering my gardens late at night (and have even been known to do some weeding!) There's something very special to me about being embedded in nature after dark (some primal instinct emerging, perhaps!)
it is actually to best time to do it- the water has time to sink down into to roots and deeply nourish the plant without fear of scalding the root system.

I suppose some farmers and maybe gardeners do work pre-dawn nowadays?
Thanks John and Alan.

Except that I'm attracting some pretty plump slugs to my hosta - which is, by now quite "holy"!
