What someone has trouble growing zucchini? Hard to believe. Here we beg people to take the extras off our hands. I still have shredded in the freezer from 2yrs ago and more growing-ugh! maybe it's your zone...z5 here, and grows like a weed, an annul weed I keep planting-hehehe

my potatoes are growing like crazy too. They just started flowering here in my central Indiana. But since they continue to grow taller I keep adding compost/straw/mulch mixture(ok hubby keep adding-with my help) to the tops. Every other day they need more around them. I'm using the tall wire...

Maybe the Whiskey Tea Time cake...hmmm

mmmmm! Polkweed!

looks alot like my 'pan squash' the little flat scalloped squash-yum! Some of these types of plants, gourds/squash/vine things don't like to be transplanted-I'd leave it a bit and see.

I've had one in my yard for about 10yrs-the same one. I was so afraid it would get broken-but it's lasted this long-yippee(going to find some wood to knock on) I'm not into yard ornaments-but a globe or two nicely place, adds color all year.

Here in Indiana, Purdue university is doing a study on Black Spot, and asking all of their master gardeners to watch for it and bring in all specimens we find. I just love Purdue and the Hort. dept! We're actually hoping to find some roses black spot. :rolleyes:

woohoo, way to go carol. I've given my rain garden program to the MGs three times now. including rain barrels of course

Yay! Pat, good reply!

I have a cottage garden, I call it my courtyard. I am just starting a second cottage garden with veggies mixed in.

I am seriously allergic to Stings-so I always wear shoes/crocs, and HATE dirty feet, so ugly or not-I wear socks!

I make sun tea with several of my herbs. I tie fresh herbs in cheese cloth-to act as tea bag. But I also use regular teabags from the store. I use a container with a lid or pitcher with plastic wrap over top to keep debris/bugs out. Add tea/herb to container filler with water. Secure lid/cover...

I'd be driving around looking for my plants-dang people! hard telling from where they came, but I'd sure like to hunt them down... I'm just going to plant a 120.00 pompom juniper tonight-I'm gonna have to watch it like a hawk. I worried the potted plant would disappear- had hubby hide it til...

welcome. Nothing better than fresh morning cukes with the dew still on them-unless it's a mater the same way!

My rhodie likes a lot of morning sun then some shade through the hot mid day. I also spread pine needle type mulch on their ground once a year-that of course will depend on your PH. maybe test your soil and pay attention to the light they are getting?? A little tlc-is sure worth it for these...

Dang I just planted all mine about two weeks ago. But then again I already have extra long dippers, and birdhouse. Good luck on your search-I love the huge kettle gourds.

Good thing they root deep-have you every tried to more a bed of them-dang! Peonies are pretty heardy plants and roots-even if winds blow them over-they're still strong plants growth wise. Good luck and I'll bet you get some next year-then after a few years even more.

This is the first time Ive heard that you do not do sweet potato the same way- uh oh.

But it's sooooo good for the garden, and our seeds need it, and maybe you'll see a rainbow... there feel better now? Rain rain go away, come water my garden another day!

Mine spreads like crazy, just like the lemon balm. I find sprouts all over my 3 acres, and the mother plant comes back HUGE every year.
