I would like more tree like but I guess that can happen with pruning..
I read what the site says but I dont really always trust someone Im buying from. They are trying to sell something, not make friends! lol
I do want some!! My yard is mostly clovers so my feelings wouldnt be hurt if mint took over. I could just mow it right?
So now the question is..
Pepper mint or spearmint :D
I just purchased some Angels Trumpet seeds from Parkseed.com
Does anyone have any experience growing it from seeds? I read that it was really easy.
How tall will the plant get if I start it late next week into the early after week? The planters they will be going in are about 20 inches wide at...
You know those plastic runners that go about 4+ inches in the ground that are made to keep weeds out of flower beds? I was REALLY wanting to plant mint along my driveway and have large planters sit in the beds. Do you think the "runners" will keep mint in?
Id like to put an herb garden between two porches. The back of the house faces the south so they would be lightly shaded during the morning and evening.
Im in Ga and would be working with mostly clay with some top soil mixed.
What are some good herbs for this kind of area?
Ill need alot of help pulling it out. Its heavy!
The new growth is SO small I dont think you could do a cutting from it.
I wish I would have known cuttings were easy. I just lightly trimmed my tree a few weeks ago..
Since its looking like it is do you think it would hurt it anymore to do a...
Camera broke the other day..
All the leaves withered and dried. I pulled them all off and brought the tree inside (it is already in a pot).
I saw new growth that wasnt rotting so that is a good sign, right?
I have another question..
When should I bring it inside?
My temps are dropping down into the 50s during the night now.
Plus from the flooding ALL the branches are brown. Even the new growth..
and...
Should I go ahead and prune it for next year? It has kind of gotten an odd shape to it now.
Im about to loose it!
Ga had a lot of rain here lately while I was gone on vacay and a few days after. When I came home I noticed the pot with my HT and Gerber Daisys was OVER FLOWING with water. I dumped it out after it stopped raining.
Over the days it the leaves are getting darker and...
Thanks Ron!
I think I planted the bulbs to shallow this summer. I am relocating them today while it is cool and we are suppose to get showers later.
Thanks for your help!
Ok I have really messed up my spider lilys.
I planted them mid summer after I bought them on sale at a outlet. They were in tiny pots that had the roots growing out the sides and holes. They had long stems that were already starting to bend over.
When I put them in the ground I did not...
No I am here in Georgia. No freezes till maybe the end of october. I wouldnt mind them shooting up twice as thick either..
Do you think I will be alright to cut them really close to the ground? About the last stem...
I wouldnt worry much with it right now but I am about to pressure wash and stain my front porch before it gets too cold. I was wondering if I cut it down to about one and a half to two feet tall it would be ok.
Same with my Canna
When I noted my wave becoming really leggy I pinched it back and it thickened up beautifully!
and isnt it amazing how flowers seem to know when people are coming to visit? They either want to stop blooming or die..
