It's time to stop dibbling and actually dig our potatoes! We are hoping for a good harvest, but won't know until we get them above ground. If...
Well FBG, at least your weather forecaster didn't tell you "You never know when it will rain" as ours did one evening. Of course, he was the same...
Now THAT'S a shopping trip! So glad you found what you wanted, needed, and just had-to-have. Is you sister-in-law as much of an enabler as Toni?...
And I bet the bees are grateful for anything flowering, too! We keep bees, and it's amazing how much pollen they can stuff in their leg pouches,...
Others with experience growing tomatoes in containers may tell you differently (so listen to them!) but from my experiences in transplanting...
To all you ladies who were brave enough to have and raise children, Happy Mother's Day!
Ronni, I have no idea what your neighbor's rose is, but it sure is pretty! Here is Dark Lady: [img] David Austin's Dark Lady rose ( photo /...
Welcome to the Stew! Feel free to join in on discussions, ask questions, and post pictures (we love pictures).
Well gee, Toni, if you aren't willing to go all the way for a rain chant, the liklihood of getting a nice downpour is slim. :roll: Personally,...
For scent and hardiness, I'd recommend Dark Lady (an Austin rose) which is deep red; Nacadoches which is bright yellow and smells heavenly; soft...
Donna, great photos! We have bluebirds, but aren't sure if they are nesting or not. How did you ever sneak up and get such a great picture? No...
Ronni, Grab a cup of coffee and don't make plans for this morning--I LOVE to talk roses! "Regular" roses that Paige wants are most likely hybrid...
Oh yeah, been there and done that, but it was a birthday, not an anniversary date. My sister has not yet forgiven me . . . .
Happy Anniversary, Cheryl and hubby! And for all of us on the Stew it's a happy anniversary of you joining. This place wouldn't be nearly as much...
Mart is absolutely right--some composted cow,sheep, or horse manure could help your tomatoes. The nice thing about composted manures is that the...
Wonderful photo, Sjoerd, congratulations! How did you ever get her to pose like that? Our bees aren't as photogenic, nor as cooperative. :roll:
Firedup, it would really help to know where you are! If I give advice for Texas, it won't work for you in Wisconsin. Your plants look...
I knew it, I just KNEW it! Members here are kind and helpful without expecting any "payment" so the payment comes in the form of reciprocated...
Watered the potatoes for the last time--we'll be digging them in mid-May, I think. Weeded--will the weeds NEVER give up? While weeding, saw that...
Ahhhh, that is so sweet! Mastiffs are so maternal, and so caring, and so darned big!
