Well, you are welcome to come down to sunny, DRY Texas and visit. I'll even let you weed the vegetable garden. If you come, be sure to pack up a...
Noodles, I'm glad you liked the suggestion. With the warm color red in the curtains and comforter, you definitely need a cool color to offset and...
Most likely it is a water mark. Take some furniture oil (not spray, but the bottled kind)like lemon oil, and a pad of very fine steel wool....
Welcome, and I'm sure you'll find this a friendly and helpful group. Tell us a bit about yourself and the type of gardening you like. We are on...
We got rain! We woke up about 2 a.m. and heard rain--had to stop and think what it was, it had been so long since we had heard that happy plink,...
I'm not a fan of goats, but that photo could change my mind. Too bad about the Confederate jasmine, but it does show that the goat has good taste...
Many folks use potting soil, but I prefer sterile starting mix. It's sterile (duh!) and very fine, so the seeds and seedling roots don't have to...
Mix one teaspoon of baking soda with one cup of water, shake well, put in a mist sprayer and spray your plants. This will prevent/take care of...
We use PhotoFiltre, which is also free, and has the advantage of being so easy to use that even I can manage it. It sizes photos (handy to meet...
You have the most beautiful "weeds"! That groesbeak is something else. Your yard must be in constant motion with the birds, deer, and other...
Good pictures, congratulations on becoming a "technocrat"! Chance is adorable. Do you think he barks when you feed the goats because he's jealous?
What do we have planted? Well, there is a Clytemnestra rose on the big ashe juniper, Pearl d' Or, Lady Hillingdon, and Marie Pavie roses: a...
This is the path from our house to the barn. [img] path from house to barn ( photo / image / picture from marlingardener's Garden ) We travel...
I don't know how big your stump is around, but we removed some hackberries that were about 10" diameter. We drilled the holes as Toni said, and...
Daisy, local honey, especially raw honey is so unlike the store-bought stuff that you wouldn't know they were both made by bees! There were...
Cheryl, does this mean we now call you Sherlock? Good for you, finding out they are 7 Sisters! A wonderful rose, as you well know.
Daisy, we had the same thing when we started our flower beds here. I simply cut the sod into as small pieces as I could (the smallest about a foot...
Thanks, y'all. Toni, we have NO iris. When we moved from town, it was absolutely the wrong time of year to bring iris rhizomes with us. I do have...
No, not iris! Our bees are enjoying evenings on their front porch during our warm weather. This activity is called "bearding" because the mass of...
It's nothing different for most gardeners, but we are trying sweet corn. This is the first time we've had a garden big enough to accommodate a...
