I am glad to hear they don't cause the battle there that they do here. French Mulberry/American beauty Berry grows wild on the sides of the road. I do like it when the berries are showing color. I plan on having one in my landscape next season. I have never seen one cultivated, so I may be...

Punkinpeep the last thing you want to do is just cut them down. That will only promote runners and the cut stump will grow right back! I use a ditchbank and chop out the root. If you grab a root and pull up you will see it is shallow and runs for ever, keep following that root and you will find...

Rudi sure is a wonderful dog/ friend! Berrrr, nice pictures. I looked and my umbrella grass is just waiting to die back for the year. It will rest for a month or two then grow again, but as for those tops with the seed/sprouts they are just not there at this time for me. It could be because I...

Thank you! That makes me feel warm inside! This tree was huge I did today! A large Oak. I had to remove a branch hanging over a condo. I am happy to say not even a little twig hit the roof. Weird day though, Here it was 82 in the shade and I am worried about collecting every twig for my...

Steve thank you that information will be very helpful. You seem to search in a different way, being you come up with a different view of a subject then I. This is good, giving a 180 degree view on things. Good to see all angles before investing time and effort! As to the construction of the...

I also made mention of Foliage and Tropicals Beefy. In time that would be cool. But on the plate now is propagation! I have for some time now started threads with the name of the plant as the title. I feel it makes it much more easy to search this way. I also feel with plant names in the title...

Hello my friends! Sorry I have been very busy today! I was eating dinner and read all of this. Worked on a large tree today. Got wood to heat my sunroom for two winters. I must say, if a goat was to enter a land with full grown shrubs of a poisonous type then yes one would expect trouble. But...

:frow Hello :rose Hattie :rose I am glad that brought back some good memories for you. I am thinking of making raised beds built just over the bearing walls. Does anyone know if this would help with pests while growing vegetables? I don't waste to much time on growing Veg crops because they...

Wifezilla it sounds like you are a Professional Nutritionist. Some very good advice! Joe

"Dress Code: No effort NO entry." That part of that site caught my attention. Funny! Joe

Great to see you have flowers after the cold weather you have had. You got that green house done in the nick of time. Joe

I have been kicking around the idea of a roof garden for a little while now. I have been reading up a bit and I think my house is just right for this idea. I already have a rubberized torchdown roof that only has a 1.5 / 12 pitch, that being a rise of 1 and a half inch rise per foot of run. In...

Beef by all means yes please vote. :fl Now stop hinting around and lets hear what you want! :caf Joe

Well it was all good there Ron, then you bring up my flower picture of the week. Here I was thinking it would be timeless! :lau :gig :hit She did have a good run though! Joe I also vote yea, oh darn I voted already. :bouquet

I guess, if we must. ;) Rob a few people have mentioned this and I thought I would post the question. Nice to have you on board :thumbsup vote yes on Section Propagation :tools Joe

Hey my garden friends what do you think about a section devoted to propagation? Being a garden forum I think it would be helpful to have a section just for making plants. We all want more plants! Please chime in if you feel the same. I vote ; Yea on Section Propagation. Joe Come on and vote!

Thank you Ron I wondered why my clump of Umbrella Grass never got much bigger. I have had one clump I got from a pond where I was fishing. I only took a little as I did not want to disrupt the nice pond. The plant was dumped there from a yard cleaning, there were other landscape plants there...

And there we have my place there in the last picture after just one season. Joe

I think I have red and pink. The problem is I just move and plant things and don't keep track of who goes where. I will have to pay more attention to the details for now on. I am pretty sure most of it is red though. That Rattlebox is nice! I found and collected seeds from a yellow one in...
