Donna, I've received 6' canes of roses, and made multiple cuttings from the one cane. It is necessary to have leaves. I don't know if you are...
Sad for us--we'll miss you for the next 10 days. Not so sad for you--Hawaii isn't exactly the worst spot to spend some time. In recompense for...
KK, tomatoes are creepers (they are actually called "tomato vines" in many old catalogs). Supporting them keeps the fruit off the ground--cleaner,...
Well, you just solved a problem for me! We have lots of those stashed in the bathroom (our dentist is big on giving out freebies) and I had never...
Hello, and welcome to the forum! I love to hear from our UK members--their gardens are so different from ours here in Texas. Get well so you can...
We have noticed an increase in the hummingbird population around our feeders in the last week. We kept nectar in our feeders during the hot...
Our county fair is alive, well, and thriving. You wouldn't believe the rivalry that goes on about the best pickles, cakes, cookies, breads, and...

Eileen and Jerry, we are eagerly anticipating the migration season. Due to the wildfires here and flooding in other parts, we should get birds...
It occurred to me that I've been whining a lot about the drought here in Texas. In compensation, I'm posting a happy picture of a Yellowlegs...
About water drops on fires--a fire broke out near Stillhouse Hollow Lake (a man-made Corps of Engineers lake used as a reservoir) and the Texas...
Tony, have you seen raccoons in your area? Ripping the ears off and scattering them sounds like a 'coon's action. Preventing them from doing more...
Chance is adorable, but you knew that already! Just give her lots of lovin' while you're home, and get lots of lovin' back (the wet tongue,...
Everyone tells me Feliz is a big cat. She looks just about right to me . . . . We have always had BIG dogs--75 and 90 lbs. so a 12 lb. cat...
Philip, that's a great video, and of course the subject helps a lot. At about 55 seconds, the shot of Oliver looking up soulfully just about made...
