Love that banana Philip. Ronni, thanks for the photo tip.
Carolyn, we in Massachusetts have had a forecast of a week of rain/drizzle, but next week is supposed to be beautiful. I think OH is ahead of us...
Wow Philip you truly have your own microclimate! Are you able to grow plants from zones warmer than yours? Can you grow the warm season...
Ronni, for some reason my photos are all too large & have to be resized. Maybe it is my camera? Maybe it is because I use Picassa? I don't know....
Hi Philip! Good to hear from you again! I think I have encountered you on another garden website. I got distracted by something & didn't put a...

Sjoerd, I don't know about the grape hyacinths....I could try them in a different spot. I have tried growing them in what I think of as my...
Wow. I have trouble keeping both grape hyacinths & regular hyacinths alive after the first year or two!

I am trying to grow litchi tomatoes from seeds. I am growing them under lights. I have sowed litchi seeds twice, kept the medium damp. I read...
