    In my collection today there is also a piece of what beefy calls a "ZZ" plant. Wallyworld had them and one of them had some broken off laying there. So I stuck that broken piece down in my butterfly iris :D

    Well, one day I WILL return the favor but it will be a surprise and not because I feel I owe you but because I like to share too. One day I will learn how to be as generous as you :bouquet

    OMG, they had those ponytail palms at Wallyworld today and I totally didn't get one cause they are so small. I didn't know they would get so HUGE!

    yellow flower

    When it comes to identifying them you have to consider that a plant here growing for me might grow somewhat differently for you. So my best advice would be to find something that is closest to what you have because growing conditions vary greatly from one area to another which will affect how...

    Leaf from thorny tree

    From what I have read most fruit trees these days are grown from grafts, not from seeds. The reason being is it take many years for most fruit trees to actually mature and produce whereas grafted trees usually produce within their first 5 years. Also, most seeds gathered from fruit of grafter...

    Cooler Temps

    We did good covering the plants - this morning there was a light frost on everything. That means we should have another couple of weeks then the big freeze will happen. Come on 'maters :fl

    Our first 'tilling'!

    I have an older tiller. It is a rear-tine Wizard that my dad bought for my mom about 12-15 yrs ago. We have hard clay dirt that gets cracks the size of Dallas when it gets dry. Hard. After all these years my tiller still starts on the 3rd try - even after sitting for an entire year. And so far...

    Homemade Deer Repellent Recipe

    Why couldn't this be used on veggies? Seems like if you washed off the veggies before eating them there shouldn't be any harm?
