become a soil Chucker
Bobbi, get the shovel. I know exactly what you are talking about. You will do no ham filling the spaces btween raised roots or even coveing them with up to an inch of soil. You can go even go 2 to 4 inches on mulch as long as you don't pile it up around the trunk...

Hey Cheri, Good to see FishinBC again... its been quite a while. Welcome. Sorry I failed to respond to this thread. I've not been on a lot lately. Looks like Ron has given more than adequate advice. I'll leave it at that.

Hello FishinBC... good to see you

Glad to see you Al.... I was beginning to think that maybe you were a figment of my imagination.... a speck of mustard maybe?
So tell us about yourself.... you a veggie or ornamental gardener.... maybe you do both? What zone are you in? Any favorite plants or flowers?

Guess I missed the obit....... oh well. Susan, I'm not really very happy about being "right". The only thing I feel I was right about was that I could not do my assigned job. I couldn't really edit articles anymore, and then so many went missing or came back out of form. More importantly I...

These look to be English Boxs. My experience with boxwoods is you can take them back hard but it will take a couple of years to get a good looking hedge back. I don't particularly like the sheared, boxed look like on these. When you shear you need to leave a couple of inches of growth to...

We had a couple of farm broadcasters on our local radio station years ago, Whip Robinson, Arnold Feltcher and Homer Quann who got bored one morning on their show and came up with the idea to sell pre-dug post holes. Boy did they have a ball with that for weeks. Now Randy and Peggy.... all ya...

Well, I didn't start in cars quite as early as Kya, but I was driving the trqactor just as soon as my legs were long enough... I'd say about 8 and then the old 4 wheel drive Ford by the time I was 10. When I took behind the wheel in school, the first thing the instructor asked me at the end of...

I've got a question.... How many sites is the Bluegrass Bunch thread strung over now?

Plant Lover! Glad you came out..... well, glad you've come in out of the cold. I believe I've been hindered by the same agonizing as you have. Yes there are many friends here.... some from way back and some more recent.

Oak leaves work well as a soil amendment if allowed to decay a bit. As Randy says they do contain tannic acid, but this breaks down fairly rapidly with aging or composting. I like to chum them up goo with the mower and then pile them to work in with grass clippings in spring. That makes for a...
