Welcome to the Stew! We are an international community with something going on in someone's garden all the time. You will be a great addition to...
The first gardening catalog of the season arrived today! My Pinetree Seeds for 2012 came in the mail. Tonight a glass of wine, a fistful of sticky...
Two members from Arizona are Pricklypear and Hans Glauser. You might try sending one or both a private message with your query about Arizona.
Kay, remember we are in Texas, without what you would consider a "winter". I usually prune my beautyberries in early to mid-February, along with...
We have two native beautyberries in our yard and they are practically indestructible. We started them from clippings taken in the wild. Like...
That is a great photo! Queen Elizabeth is an admirable lady. She has gone through so much with such grace. One of the few public figures we can...
Oh my, Feliz would NEVER break a blind. She simply waits for me to raise them so she has her view of the yard. She also likes to snuggle down...

From Pampered Chef to Pampered Toad! A very clever use, and your loss is the toad's gain.

Whatever it is, scrape as much as you can off, then spray the soil with a mix of 1 tsp. baking soda in 2 c. tepid water. If it is mold/fungus,...
