Thanks for all of your input, I will look into the county extension office info as this "thing" is driving me crazy! I don't think I would care about it if it wasn't growing where it is! I will let it go for a bit to see what develops since I apparently can't kill it anyhow (I have also chopped...

Maybe I will try to let some grow to see what it produces...I said try because they are in where I'm trying to grow flowers..grrr!

I will give this a try... 1. What state/province/country are you in and what is your climate like? PA, normally cold, snowy winters, rainy spring, nice hot (but not too hot) summers and cool falls 2. How many people are in your family? Marital status? 4 people (i won't include pets in...

Ours is a hand me down from my dad and the handles are duct taped to stop the splinters!! I might have a lil redneck in me :idunno but I wasn't about to buy a brand new one for $90! It's great that you located one on craigslist!!!

I love this...I have been the one digging and weeding and planting into the night and since my neighbor ARE very nosey, I'm sure they think I'm crazy... but sometimes it is just easier to get things done after the little one is asleep :)

Thank you so much for your knowledge marshallsmyth! I can't say that I have seen any that look like this around town so I hope I can get it back to it's glory for next years blooms! I also found a plant in my lilac bush but confirmed after online searches that it is barberry bush (it bit me when...

I love the stone too....unfortunately it is caving in :-( it has the built in planters that work great....except for the one below this bush! The tree is already budding so I have to wait til this fall to cut back right?!

Actually yes you were MissDaisey because from what I have read the snowball bush is a viburnum. I just wasn't sure (it's hard to tell on internet pics) if mine had the same flowerings as one though and since mine is more tree like than the big bushes shown online. So I am going to take your...

I'm not sure if this is a tree, shrub, flower or what! A little history on it...for 4 years, it has been cut down, attempted to be dug out (going down about 2-3 feet and never finding the end because I believe it is going under a cement sunporch addition) and it continues to come back every...

First of all, I hope the pics show up for you because I am not sure how to do this yet! This bush/tree has been here since we moved in 5 years ago. It has very pretty whitish balls of flowers every year but also a lot of dead looking sticks on the underside. When I searched for it, the only...

So far so good, although we only got a little over of an inch so far, it is a very heavy snow! I went and shook them off, as well as my hostas that were flourishing and the phlox. The others items I already had out in planters have tarped "lean to"s that are sheltering them so I just shook the...

I got them wrapped the best I could in the dimming daylight, beginning cold rain, and without a ladder! I hope they survive because you are right catjac, they were not cheap (I never thought I would have to actually buy trees, dang nosey neighbors) I plan to go out in the morning with a broom...

I was worried someone would say that haha...I have had to bring many planters and containers on the covered porch in hopes of saving them through this freak snow storm and I am tired! Oh well, best to save what I can, especially the most expensive ones :fl

We just put in 2 Leyland Cypress trees that are about 8 ft tall 3 days ago so the roots are not established in our soil. The current forecast for this evening and until Tuesday is winds 15-25mph with gusts hitting 40 and between 8-12inches of heavy snow. We have staked them down but now I am...

This is on my brothers porch. He normally has his webcam set up for his rabbit and cats but since the robins babies have hatched, he put it on them. I think it is cute and wanted to share! http://www.ustream.tv/channel/9754651

Adorable!

Here is a site I was just reading about (as I currently am getting over the blisters on my arms, neck, stomach, and legs that I am tired of getting several times a year!) http://www.gardensalive.com/article.asp?ai=562 It says to pull out roots and all and then if necessary use vinegar but...

Nice pictures!!! We had a ton of butterflies around here on Sunday...I never think to take pictures :( Thanks for sharing yours!

That is awesome that you got them out already! I wish my layer chicks were old enough for that as it would have saved a lot of work and smell in the sunroom. I understood after reading so much on BYC beforehand that they were big poopers but wow, it's as big as my cats poo! You will get plenty...

Wow. I have no input here but just want to say how awesome this site and its wonderful members are :bow I probably couldn't tell that plant was a sunflower even if I had planted it myself (I toss some seeds down and if something grows, I have to let it go until I can tell if it's a weed or...
