    Garden humor thread..

    I had NO IDEA that these invasive trees sprout hellish thorns! On a recent Mid American Gardener, one guest brought pictures of his property where somebody had planted them. THE ONLY REASON that they had spread Further was bc his property bordered on a farm field and that gets tilled every...

    Coffee

    I DID collect kindling for a fire on out hike. I Guess we could have brought the wood inside of the cabin to dry it out...but that might bring in something like termites. Perhaps we could have brought a black tarp and covered them day we got there.

    Harbor Freight has cheaper products BUT I never did care for those long orange clampy...thingy's.. They always looked a little bit flimsy. THESE clamps are heavy and metal. We will probably go back and get more of them. Generally, though, 4 clamps is usually enough for any glueing job. UNLESS...

    I planted a camelia

    I think you're right about the peonies. I had thought about giving my sad dark pink peony to my DD for several years. When I finally dug it up, I felt like I was ripping it out! Somebody had planted this due north of a big maple and so many of the roots were stuck in the tree roots. Still...

    Sorry to tease without pictures, but when DD took our hike on Sunday we came upon numerous small stands of invasive bamboo. I'll ask her to send me the pictures.

I have learned that you grab a clerk to ask where in the store something generally is, like materials for a clothes line, then you grab a clerk working in...

    Rhododendron has something wrong

    RHododendrons are really tough. Could be fungus but I wouldn't worry about it. I saw a 15 ft tall rhododendron on our Carbondale hike last Sunday. It is probably over 100 years old and NOBODY cares for it. They are understory trees, so if you or somebody else cut the tree that shaded it, it...
