It seems you have a rosarian green thumb! Why not get both of the rooted rose cuttings into their own pots now, perhaps a 4" pot? The fewer times...
We got rain, and high winds. I really didn't want any snow. Actually, I never want any snow!
Janet, welcome to the Stew! We have great crafty types, and gardeners here. Pretty soon you'll be saying, "Been there, grown that."
Toni, I'm so happy for you since I know how much you love snow. As I've said before, better you than me! I'll settle for the 1.3" of rain we got...
First gift: it rained today! Waking to thunder and lightning, and getting 1.3" of rain was about the best gift a Texas gardener could get! Second...
Donna, may your Christmas and New Year be filled with the joy and beauty you bring to others.

And a Merry Christmas to you, Captain! Your posts have made the past year merrier, and I'm looking forward to your posts lightening and...
Toni, our weatherman has changed his tune (as he so often does). Now his prediction agrees with yours. I personally think that the hair dye he...
Darn that lazy Mayan! I thought the world was going to end today, so I didn't clean the house or do laundry. Rats! Well, back to the same old...
Well, since we are all still here, I guess the Mayan calendar had it wrong. Toni, it looks as if you might get a dose of winter this weekend...
Hello Jessica! Welcome, and I'm sure we'll all enjoy your photos and posts. No "white stuff" here in Central Texas (thank heavens) but our gardens...
I'd tell her that I was bowled over by her generosity, and give half to a charity that she supports or is one of her interests (Humane Society,...
