    Help!! Does anyone grow Peonies?

    Last summer my Peonies totally died but they came back this year. We've had sun and 100's for more than a week and they're starting to burn really bad. They're in full sun. Should I transplant them to a shady garden? What can I do to save them and get them to flower? Any help will be very very...

    My Pineapple Project

    I really didn't think Pineapples would grow here but I was def wrong. They love hot weather! I started this one by cutting off the top of a pineapple mom bought at the store. The leaves were tuff and green (that's very important) and I made the cut about 1 inch from the top. Then I hung the...

Here's some pics I took...

    The World History of Climate Change

    I'm starting this thread to answer a question that Curbie asked but I think it would be a cool place to discuss topics and events about climate change. All climate change and unusual weather events are welcome but please no radical political debates. Thanks. :) The question was "What is the...

    My banana project

    @ Curbz. Buy a new one and grow it indoors by a window. :D If it's a dwarf type it will do awesome inside with mostly just light from the window. Just never put it outside cause they don't like changing their climate. :) Good luck.

    Canon cameras are awesome and I'll be checking one out tomorrow. :) Another really cool camera is Sony Cybershot. I have one. They're small enough to fit in your pocket, the photos are 12.1 MP, the focus is amazing, and the colors are too! I've had my Cybershot for 2 or 3 years and it still...

    My banana project

    Ouch! *about the water* One thing you can try is putting paper towels around it to soak the water up. I've done that before and it def helps. :) I Fail. :confused: I said I wouldn't get another banana plant and I did. I'm getting 2 in the mail. They were only $77 and I was all like YES! :D...
