I don't know about the Midwest, but that bid in Texas would be jumped on like a duck on a junebug! Its a bit less than what we paid to have 9...
I was picking squash this morning and saw RR. He/she (the vote is still out on that one) was eating grass. Thank heavens, finally help with all...
She is the loser--no pretty pictures to look at; no conversation about gardens and plants; and is known as a "downer." She deserves your sympathy,...
We've all done it at some time or another--over fertilized and damaged a plant. That is why I use steer manure, to keep me from destroying...
FBG, as we say in Texas, "No brag, just fact." Your idea is stunningly brilliant, and we are all proud of you. I hope corporate realizes how...
It could be the old-fashioned Rose of Sharon (hibiscus syriacus). The new cultivars usually have multi-petaled blooms, but the old ones had blooms...
Blissful, we don't have a problem with deer either, but when we lived in town a "gated community" (not a prison facility) near us had a terrible...
You are doing well, very well! And taking a bit at a time is the perfect approach--you get to see immediate results (and we do, too!) and have...

Don't give the school system too much credit. Texas schools are facing a financial short-fall, and I offered to write a letter to the editor...
Who says you can't make a difference? The elementary school in our nearby town planned a "balloon release" to celebrate taking some state test. I...
Your daffs will survive. In fact, this is a great time to see if they need to be divided. You may have fewer blooms next year, but just replant...
Another welcome from warm and sunny Texas!
Welcome to the Stew from central Texas!
Great convenience, Frank! Thank you.
Nope, not for me. I like a garden where I know the plants; I put them in and cared for them; and if there were hired "gardeners" it would mean...
Rainwater is great for plants, but untreated, not for human consumption. It comes off your roof! We have three 250 gal. containers, two off the...
Yes, removing the finished blooms is called "deadheading" and it really helps most roses. Some of the own-root, antique roses will go ahead and...
So glad the market was such a success for you. Who would have thought of "petite" aprons? You'll sell out of those quickly! Your totes went fast,...
