My husband picked this up from a lady in El Paso (not Texas, but Wisconsin). It seems to fit much of the Midwest and upper East Coast. Insert your...
:'( I do hope the flight is reinstated, and that you get to Ca. without difficulties. As you said, it's better to be stranded at home than at an...
Donna, most cuttings are taken when the plant is starting growth (nutrients moving up, leaves beginning to photosynthesize) or at the very end of...
All of your ideas, Frank, and the suggestions made by members are really good. May I suggest "pets" and also perhaps "tips for easy living". The...
Usually the larger leaves, like maple and some oaks, break down slower. If you can run a lawn mower over them (especially if your mower has a bag)...

Garden map? Oh, my stars! Donna, you are so organized, so efficient, and so green-thumbed that it is simply amazing.
Who goes around measuring mouse ears?
