Starting again with trying to root cuttings. Got the white/purple rooting hormone powder bottle. And some vermiculite. Trying to get florist roses to root currently. Cut under leaf node, I think. No leaves on them. Contained to keep in moisture. On seedling mat to stay warm. What else do I...

Got 10 and 30 gal fabric grow bags. Cinderblocks to make a long "container" out of, open to ground below them, fill with dirt and plant in and in the wall cells. Can these plants grow and stay in these over winter? In just the blocks that connect directly to the ground or also the bags...

Didn't get all of them, but got some. I SHOULD of gotten this one. So pink! Last one...Maybe there's bulbs of it online?? Anyone know? But got a yellow one. I've seen this online! Had to get one. Almost got this one, but decided to wait... Some lilies, iris bulbs, some other type of...

Could use more hostas for my pond. But idk if it's a safe company, so many out there now! If you've done this deal, did all bits grow?

Was on a walk when Woofer vanished & suddenly started barking. Went through the overgrowth & discovered a fawn! He's not deer friendly, so I had to carry it behind a gate, out of reach. I hope it's a safe spot, at least he stopped barking at it. Does love to have their babies here. He killed a...

I've been searching for 4+ years, tried two separate orders of seeds, searched woods & FB, online was always sold out.... Then I saw them! Could only afford one, though. Suckers are terribly overpriced!

Don't want to spend so much at one time...So, which 2-3 would you get this year? I have TONS of yellow iris and one sad black gamecock. I want color! Narrowed it down to these seven. White has to be bought. Leaving spots for 2-3 more. Unless someone has these Louisiana varieties and can...

I've now seen two wild plants with it. One is a dock, the other I haven't IDed yet. I tried to pot the dock, but the dirt I used turned out to be heavy clay...🤦🏽‍♀️ Any ideas on what causes it? Could I pot them and use their seeds in hopes of creating variegated versions of them? Has anyone...

Pictures are backwards. I'm planting 2 trees per paddock for my sheep to have shade as I rotate them through. Have 9 paddocks currently, but 1st has two mature trees, 2nd has two medium willows, the 3rd has two young fruit trees and the 4th has a row of pine/cedar trees. So, 5 more paddocks need...

I've always heard autumn is when you plant trees, true? Do I need to water them? I have 7 willows & 3 mulberrys to plant. They are wee little things and not on a tall, bare trunk. Think bushy, wild, messy. Lol I'll have a few more next year to plant. Anyway, anyone have ideas for very cheap...

They count, darn it! 45+ of them found today!

Thought you guys would like to see my colony of bees. Very active on hot days & hardly noticable on cool days. Miner/Chimney Bee, Anthophora abrupta. 😍 🐝

Two in my trees behind the barn with a hawk. Bunch in the sky. They visited before a few years ago. Probably yearly, but I don't notice.

I have many things that need to sell, it's been months, but no real takers. =/ It's all live animals and equipment related to them. How do you guys sell things quickly?

I've never really looked into it before, as I've done raised beds or pots instead. Easy peasy. I want to attempt a more old fashioned garden, but nothing fancy & probably not fully right n proper either. Haven't decided on size, will measure it out soon. I've read 12-14in deep for first...

Anyone in Va want some plants? Weeping cherry been planted 4-5yrs, dig it out & haul it away yourself. Some small Taro grown in bog. Will have some ground cover plants, too. Hidden under grass currently, but I guess you could dig them up now if you want. There is a purple sand cherry in the...

Few weeks ago a hummer visited my Thalia plant. I ordered 2 feeders that night and waited several days before a hummer found and tested out the feeder. A couple of days ago, a second hummer showed up and showed me it wanted a feeder with a rest to land on. I used some thick wire and made a...

So now that I've made 3 out of the 6 new paddocks, I realize I need to put in shade/shelter for my sheep. I'd like to use fruit trees for this, apple and pear. Only ones I'll eat, lol. But they need to be dwarf or real small and super disease resistant. I cannot be spraying them, ever, with...

Have many cherry trees I need to get rid of. Thinking I need to be girdling the trees to kill them. But what tools do I need? Some are small, others up to a foot wide.
