Happy Birthday! May you have many more, and many more posts here on the Stew. Tell us what you had for dinner--a special, favorite meal, I hope!
Our climate and yours are quite different, so please take that into consideration. You may want to double check with a reputable, owner-operated...
Tongs! I have three pairs--long, medium and short. I love them for fishing things from behind the couch (cat toys), for holding dust rags to do...
That bloom is a carnival of colors! If that's the first, we can hardly wait to see the next ones.
I second Philip's advice. I also noticed a white (reflective) wall behind the roses. How hot is it where you are in California? It may be that...
Ed, daffodils are traditionally planted in the fall for next spring blooming. Can you keep the bulbs in a dark place, with low humidity, until...
This is a very useful topic! I don't burn--just like FBG, I turn brown and then browner. However, my husband does burn (poor Irisher!) so I have...

Our chicks are 10 days old, and have changed so much from the little fluffballs we brought home. [img] After 10 days, chicks have grown (...
Fascinating! Also very helpful. The only ones I previously could recognize were the butterfly caterpillars. There's a lot less "Yuck" going on...
Hi Danny, and welcome to the Stew! Keep deep watering your crepe myrtle. It had lots of water at the nursery, and you deeply watered it when it...
What you have is Trachelospermum jasminoides variegatum, which is variegated Confederate jasmine. Yours is healthy and a wonderful plant. May I...
Frank, as a relative newcomer to the Stew, I hadn't realized how much thought and effort has been put into developing and improving the site. Each...
Eileen, those are truly works of art. Anyone lucky enough to receive one of your cards will treasure it for years. Hours? Many of us could spend...

Somebody in Taiwan has way too much time on their hands!
