    Need Help with finding.

    Park Seed sells a lof of house plant seeds or small starts. http://www.parkseed.com/gardening/GP/listpage/houseplants A couple of years ago I would have recommended Park enthusiastically, but apparently Karen Parks no longer has a controlling interest in what was a family business. I've been...

    Tool Time

    Ha! But do you have the leather sheath so you can quick draw it when you see a weed? You lose Garden Nerd cred if you don't have the leather sheath! That's a good site, though, thanks. I've got it bookmarked now.

    Interesting Ant Killer

    I'm telling y'all, if you need an alien insect infestation, go with Argentine Ant Megacolonies! They swarm and get into stuff, but they don't bite. And they kill fire ants and termites.

    What are these bird's.

    The problem I have with grackles is that they tend to flock. I had 20 0r 30 coming to my bird feeder a few years back, and they would bully some of the smaller birds. Ha, good story, there were some grackles and a couple of doves on a platform feeder I had. The grackles started posturing and...

    sad to see it go

    It's not as extensive, but http://sampleseeds.com/ is a nice, small company owned by an individual, not a corporation. I ordered from her this year, and got my seeds very quickly.

    Camellia

    The best time to root them is supposed to be late summer/early fall. I don't know if the same would hold for sprouts or not, though.

    Hello Y'all

    So far so good. The fly traps and sun dew are completely dormant right now, but the pitcher plants look like they didn't go completely dormant. The only real care they needed this summer was weeding. The man I got my plants from told me not to worry about distilled or rain water, to water them...

    Hello Y'all

    CP? As in Carnivorous Plants? Way cool! I've just started dabbling in a carnivorous plant container garden this year, and I hope to eventually get a bog garden in the yard. Gosh, I hope you weren't talking about Cherokee Purple tomatoes!

    Luckily not many flower pots go rogue, or we'd all be in trouble!

    How sweet is she???

    Doubly sweet! That's a really nice surprise!

    More Doggie Pictures

    This was a rogue flower pot, not some namby pamby tame and domesticated set of blinds! Rogue flower pots look harmless enough, but they can be vicious! I've heard stories of dogs with broken legs and hundreds of stitches from encounters with rogue flower pots! This one had clearly muscled its...

    Sad Sad Day

    Oh, I am so so sorry! What an awful way to lose one that you love. I really hate it when people won't slow down. Hugs to you and yours.

    See, that's why you need dogs. I had a rogue flower pot get into the house while I was out shopping Saturday; but my brave and ferocious companions took care of it.

    More Doggie Pictures

    Doug, Spice is a real beauty! I know what you mean about missing them, I still my Matilda. Life goes on, though, and now I've added Isabelle and Josephine to keep Abigail, me, and the cats company. I included ACD's in my search when I was looking for another dog. I knew I wanted another herding...

    Huge bird nest in my tree

    You know what a squirrel nest looks like, right? They make great big messy nests, and they might be having babies down your way. Turkey vultures nest in small caves or hollow trees. Black buzzards lay eggs on the ground. Red-tailed hawks sometimes nest in trees, though. that would be so cool...
