Netty, I had several of the old style jars--rubber rings, glass lids. I used them for pickles. Finding the rubber rings is the problem, and when...
Hello and welcome from 'way down south in Central Texas. You'll like it here--friendly, knowledgeable gardeners that are eager to help, praise,...
Police officers are true heroes. They face constant danger and still manage to do their jobs. Being shot by a cowardly sniper is despicable. I...
We were manning a Texas Parks and Wildlife booth at a local exposition, and talking about native plants and Wildscapes, etc. A lady came by and...
Toni, we feel your pain! I get up and get everything done by 9 a.m. or thereabouts, and then spend the rest of the day inside if possible. July...
Cheryl, it looks somewhat like a Lady Bank's Rose, but I'm not sure. Can you ask the donor if the shrub blooms in the spring, just once a year? If...
Well Kay, you just showed me heaven on earth! What a wonderful place to work (and it sounds as if you really, really work!). I'm drooling over...
Yucca grows wild here, so it must be a tough, easy-care plant. Does that plant pot have drainage? With the wet spring we had here in Texas, many...
Sherry, as someone who only recently learned the joys of day lilies, I am simply overwhelmed with the variety and beauty of yours. Your photos...
And it's so much more enjoyable if you give names to the weeds, names of people you just don't like very much!

Hank, that is hilarious! Thanks for posting this video :setc_083:.

Happy Birthday, and thank you for all those lovely bird pictures you post--keep 'em coming, please!
