    I---m Back!

    Happy to see you back. I'm just back myself and although my house looks wonderful after the remodel I must say I still have to look out at my neighbor's weedy yard so I am envious of your view. I hope you will be truly happy there.

    I'm baaaaaack!!!!

    OMG! I can't tell you how much I've missed you all. Our remodel will be going down in the record books as taking the longest time to complete the smallest amount of work. It took them nearly two months but they actually only worked for ten days and some were short days at that. Very...

    Quick fix for tall perennials

    I use them too. I find tomato cages are better for most flowers then they are for tomatoes.

    New blooms in my garden

    As usualy they are all spectacular. Someone told me once that cleome were called cat's whiskers so I've been calling them that for years. I always thought spider lilies were Lycoris radiata and started from bulbs.

    I'm afraid something bad may happen.

    woodstock you crack me up! I think it's a sunflower too. I love those gifts from the angels. When I went to harvest my cukes a few weeks ago I noticed this perfectly round dark green fussy ball on the vine. I’d never seen anything like it before so out of curiosity I let it be. A few...

    Easy Ice Packs

    Palm I have one in my freezer now. Even if they don't really need one it makes little kids feel special and loved when they have a boo boo and they're feeling sorry for themselves. Kya I try to keep popsicles in the freezer but those have a way of disappearing. My kids and grandkids call...

    When can I move a small shrub?

    I agree. I would wait a while like swindy said, prune like Randy said dig a big root ball like you said and fertilize like Blue said. If you don't have some place to heal in your hydrangea it should be fine for another month to six weeks in the pot you bought it in.

    Coffee Filters

    I saw her on the Carol Duval show years ago. She said she would get all her friends and family to save their filters for her and she would ask for them from every place she went that served coffee. Sure takes a lot of work.

    Hydrangeas & Soil Conditions

    I don't know if the the peat will or wont be enough but I give mine coffee grounds and they love it. I hope someone else will come along with an answer. If not I would add the peat & coffee grounds to the soil then I'd get one of those cheapy soil test kits and test the soil in about a week to...

    Sweet Peppers

    I didn't realize you could freeze peppers until just a few years ago. Besides dicing them I cut them into big flat pieces and freeze them on a cookie sheet then I put them in a zip bag. I like the bigger pieces for stir fry or sliced thin on grilled sandwiches.

    Coffee Filters

    Years ago my neighbor tossed out a huge pack of filters when he moved, I’ve been using them in my flower pots ever since. I think I still have a few hundred left out in the shed. My kitchen is so small I have to stack everything like those Russian nesting dolls. We use the little ones...
