    Another victim of the economy, I guess.

    Repelling Squirrels?

    I don't know how a pole would keep him out of your strawberries, but my mother put a slinky over a shepherd's crook to discourage them from getting into a bird feeder. They eventually figured out how to get past the slinky, but it was pretty hilarious watching until they did.

    vine help

    Any chance you could make a picture? It's truly worth a thousand words in a situation like this. Could the lack of flowers or leaves at this point be because it's too early in the season? Would you mind posting your USDA Zone? It would give us a better idea of what grows and overwinters in...

    Some flowering stuff...

    Ok, geum, that gives me a place to start, thanks. I've already made one trip to the flower festival today to take some of my coworkers, and I'll go back tomorrow to shop more for myself.

    a good companion flower

    What about some thyme to go with the lavender? Some varieties have very ornamental pink flowers, and you could use it for cooking.

    Awwwwww...how cute! It looks like a squirrel tree frog or a green tree frog. http://www.uga.edu/srelherp/anurans/hylsqu.htm http://www.uga.edu/srelherp/anurans/hylcin.htm I just love the little goobers. You can listen to the calls on that web site and figure out which one it is, if you're...

    ground cover help!!!!!!!!

    The problem is that there is a very fine line between a fast growing ground cover and an invasive ground cover. Vinca does spread quickly and there are some really nice variegated varieties on the market, too. However, my siblings and I spent a large part of our youth pulling vinca or periwinkle...
