I'll post a reply when I get over my "envy attack" :smt012 . Honest to Pete Toni, you can see gold in dross. I need to go wander around our local...
Netty, now don't laugh, but Udder Balm is a wonderful skin therapy/conditioner. It is intended for cows (as you probably guessed) but it has the...
For a modest amount of hard cash, I will ship you a live coyote--best bunnie repellent in the world! Seriously, if you can get your flower beds...
Yes Carolyn, your hands are lovely! Those are hands that do and get results. Congratulations on having hands to be proud of!
I maintain that dirty hands are happy hands, and anyone who doesn't scrub for five minutes after visiting the garden, just isn't doing it right!
Sugar water is intended to get bees through lean times, and probably May in Mississippi isn't all that lean! Honey from sugar water is blah....
Lukey, that neighbor was not the sharpest tack in the box, if you know what I mean. He "knew it all" but actually knew or noticed very little.
Darned pests! I had a problem with the raccoons tipping over the galvanized garbage can I keep my chicken feed in. Solved it by putting carpet...
Cheryl, learn Spanish. It makes life in Texas so much easier! Your clematis is lovely, and Annette is right--this is only the first one. I have...

Okra? It loves heat and doesn't need much water. There are dwarf varieties that get only about 4-5' tall. It's decorative, too (ours have been...
Dooley, anyone who will interrupt an ironing session is a true friend! Glad you all enjoyed your impromptu outing.
Matt honey, here in Texas we call flying rabbits "squirrels". Can you sprinkle some predator urine (coyote, fox) around the raised bed to...
Garden gnomes. I have seen them tip-toeing about at night, sprinkling salt on some plants, pulling off leaves, and generally raising havoc....
Yes, the cornmeal you cook with is what I was referring to. Also, vegetable oil is fine (just don't use olive oil). Carolyn, I can't believe...
Welcome to the wonderful world of gardening! If it were all that easy, everyone would have a garden and we couldn't give zucchini away. :roll: A...
Jewell, there isn't a discarded grill in this part of Texas that is safe, thanks to you! What a great re-use of something that might have landed...
