hey hubby's grand father has one planted out front of the barn, I have no idea what kind it is and since he is no longer with is I can't ask. I know it is about 5ft across and 5ft high. has not been pruned in years though so that probably would not have hurt it. The cherries it gets are rather...
how many is best to plant for good poilination? I know nothing about them except my gram loves them. I bought her one a few years ago and it is doing well but never gets alot of berries on it.
try Gruney's catalog or their web page they have some nice plants for a good price. I have always had good luck with their plants too. I got 50 strawberries from them last spring. They were growing in the box when they got here and did wonderfully. I have also gotten from lowes and home depot...
okay I know alittle about this species hence my user name. I have a thing for wildflowers and nightshades, until I had my son, were an exotic staple in one of my woodland flowerbeds. As well as other highly toxic plants. Now they are all gone, the family safty comes first.
Anyways back to...

went to the store lastnight to buy horse fence, came home with horse fence, a rose bush and a cherry tree. It never fails. Hubby does not let me in a garden center unsupervised anymore and a greenhouse/ nursery are majorly off limits. Where we live was left like a junk yard by the fokes before...
I use 55 gal rain barrels and soaker hoses to water just about everything from my flowers to my fruit trees. The key is getting the barrel high enough above ground level for a gravity system to have enough pressure to work a soaker hose. That way you do not need a pump. I have found that either...
The most time consuming part is the waiting I think. But the flower picking can be also. I got my little guy to help, he is 5. I told him I would pay him a doller for every grocery bag he could pick me. I ended up paying him .50 a quart instead lol. I brew mine in gal glass jugs. They are...
lol I am guessing that some of you know where this is going already but anyways.
The dandilions are up you know what that means for a redneck's wife? Hours of picking the flower heads and a night of starting homemade wine :D I put together my first to jugs of the season lastnight but then...
we planted an dwarf elberta peach over the weekend, I can't wait to get my granny apple this year as well as a few more elbertas and some pears. We already have nice collection of different cherries and a gala apple. As well as raspberries, blueberries, blackberries and strawberries. We are...
soil would be better because it would be warmer then the individual pots. You may also want to think about using a double pane window instead of a piece of pexi. It also will retain heat better thus making it work better. Make sure you put a layer of rock in the bottom if you full it with dirt...
