Can't help ya w/ the rooting thang...:idunno
Just wanted to say that I've seen those down south before and they are cool plants! I wish those were hardy up here.
Do hummingbirds like em?
lol....that's what I would have done! :lol: Serrated knives work wonders on rootbound plants....:P
Joe, congrats on the new Lily of the Nile! It's beautiful...from the pics I"ve seen. I wish it was hardy up here. :(
lol! :gig
I did that last year for my mom...I took one of my landscape photos, went to the photo kiosk thingy at the grocery store, and enlarged and printed it out for a few bucks....then Hobby Lobby had a frame / framing service sale, so I took the pic over and had them frame it for...
I'm glad you figured out what the problem was HiDelight! :thumbsup Hopefully next season you have lots of curcurbits to enjoy.
I guess we haven't run into that problem here because our soil is so sandy...:rolleyes:
HiDelight - hmm.....are you direct sowing your curcurbits or starting them and transplanting into the garden (or buying plants from a nursery)? I seem to have a lot better luck with the curcurbits that I sow directly in the garden vs. transplants. :idunno
Ron - beautiful garden...great idea on...
Man....if you took some of these photos, printed them out, and framed them...they would make great Christmas presents! They would be especially meaningful for your grandma...sounds like she has helped you a lot with the garden.
Wish list:
Flowers: Peony-flowered or Breadseed Poppies. I have seed, I just hope I can get them to establish themselves some day. I always forget to plant them at the right time.... :rolleyes:
Veggies: a sweet, flavorful carrot variety, and a nice variety of kohlrabi. :idunno
Some day I want...
:thumbsup Cool plant...never seen that before.
Love the quote...:gig If I got that I'd be thinking....Oh snap!!! this thing better not die...! :fl

Lavender2 - :ep that pic is gorgeous! Love the coneflowers. I figured some of the new varieties might not be able to set seed, but wasn't sure....
And...what's the yellow flower in the back? is that a type of Rudbeckia?
seedcorn - Hey, you're not too far from me! I'm originally from South...
Where do you live?
Perennials usually take 2 seasons to develop...they have to mature a bit before they get big enough to bloom....but if you are in a warmer climate, you might get blooms by next year if you plant now....Ron had good info in that on his post.
Great pics beef!
The seeds - they are towards the base of the spikey things. The seeds are wedge-shaped and tan, and sometimes they have little spikes on the top.
Found some pics online. Here is a pic of the seed:
Here you can see the tan seeds at the base of the spikey stuff:
If your...
I love those pics! :lau
Off topic...wifezilla, were you a part of Vicky Thompson's Waterfowl Place forum thingy? Is that still going on?
Anyways, great pet pics everyone!
