when ever i find a fire ant hill,i use gasoline,doesn't take much and it works.wouldn't work in your flower beds tho.we have use grits and after a couple of days they are gone.we buy the big boxes of grits. these are not fire ants. i just picked up a piece of weed guard off the ground in the...

thanks ,will look it to them

my chickens don't eat them . yeah,the good old south.i hate bugs and hot weather so right now Ga stinks for me.lol

yep,sounds like our ants.they don't have "hills" that they are going to and they are going in every direction on the ground.when i find a line,i follow it ,usually, under a building or in the woods. we always wear our mud boots.we can't where flip flops anymore. they are making me crazy.when...

ok,we live in hot and humid central Ga and we have tons of ants.we live on high ground so if the dam were to ever break we would not flood but now i am convinced it is just a giant ant hill. seriously tho,all of our neighbors also have ant problems.they are everywhere.they get in the...

thank you your advice D

thank you :hide ok so i trimmed again they are all 3 growing nicely again but we will see if only one blooms.if they do it again,i will try to cut down the 2 smaller ones. do i cut it down all the way to the root or just keep it short?

oh no,patience doesn't like me. i will not trim,i will not trim,i will not trim. thank you for the advice.i just wanted to do what is best for the little old pink lady and keep her happy. :rose

hi everyone, so my rose is blooming again.Beautiful! one problem tho,the 2 smaller bushes have still never bloomed.just big plants.i think they are connected to the mother plant.do i need to cut them down to give more nutrients to the mother plant?if so how? also,the "little" flowers that...

my "herd" is bigger(so is the feed bill) we have 19 cuttingbred horse-mostly quarter horses and a few paints thrown in. yes,we have alot of horse manure.lol

also,does this one need tying up since it is not a climbing rose?the wind is really rough on it. how do i get the stem thicker or are they not supposed to be?

actually i never found any rabbit poo,so i did use our horse manure.we use it in the veggie garden so why not. no,i don't know how to propogate them. as far as strains,the big root ball still had the rusted wire tag on it underground and it said "pink peace" rose if that helps any

thanks :D although it is not really a bush yet,but it is VERY thorny.i am going to have to stake it up i think .the wind is rough on those little stems with big flowers. it has a amazing smell. thanks guys for all the advice for this little flower.

here is the rose bush today. i pruned it earlier.just long skinny sprigs came out also a white fungus and sprayed it with a natural solution last week and pruned it again because most of it had the fungus on the new growth also,nothing blooming on the 2 little plants so they must be off...

it is not too hot yet.maybe i will try it and see how it goes.i wonder if the roots will be tangled in the pine tree roots? thanks again D
