I do'nt know much about flowers. I have a small yard. I would like to give it some life, it just look so bland. I live in chicago, that's why I would like the names of ones that grow back in the spring?

We told our LL that we had a bug problem that he needed to do something. He gave us $10 out of rent to buy bug bombs. We bought a few and they made the problem worst. Out of our money we bought Raid bombs and they made it worst. We came home both times and the walls and ceilings were covered with live bugs. Just a couple days ago my husband and I had to take our 1 year old daughter to the ER for what we thought was an ear infection but they removed a cockroach out of her ear. We can't live like this anymore. Everynight bugs are falling on us and they are all over my baby's bed. We even bought those things you plug in but they just hide from the noise. When it comes to the mice problem he tells us to get a cat. We can't I am allergic and also pregnant so I can't change the litter box. The LL also has repairs he has to make from the people who lived here before us. Holes in the wall in my daughters room, and a missing pole from the banister that my daughter can fall through. Please Help

Ok, I found the tag for my shrub with the withering leaves. It is a
Pink Beauty Hydrangea. Just planted this spring, in morning and evening the leaves are curling up. They have good color and other than the curling, the plant looks to be very healthy. What could cause it to look withered like this?

My neighbor has asked for reimbursement for past tree trimmings that she has paid for. I had told her that I am not responsible to pay for the reimbursement because my husband and I could trim the tree, but she clearly stated that she did not feel confortable us doing the trimming and she perfered to pay for a licensed, insured, bonded person to do the job. I told her we were not going to pay for this service since the beginning and now she wants reimbursement $1100.00.

I've recently bought a house and spent a fair amount decorating it. I've now moved in and discovered my neighbours make a hell of a lot of noise. I want to try and reduce this noise without having to put up soundproofing panels and having to redecorate.
