    Official TEG Poll: Top Tips for Watering Plants in Summer

    Since drip irrigation was not in the survey i’ll mention it here.

    Phaedra's Adventure

    Many folks ignore “local materials” when considering yard art. The ends of Beaver cut trees can be applied in a creative fashion and be the basis for any number of arrangements. Arranged ( helter skelter) as they would be in nature then plant flowers between them along with some river rock and...
