I have flowers planted on both sides...well the one side is doing so great but the other isn't and that is where that hole is. I am thinking it is a rat but not sure. My flowers on that side are not growing good like on the other side...If it is a Rat could it be doing something to my flowers? Do you think it could be a rat or something else?

What do i do to get rid of whatever it is? I had stuck rocks down in that hole but it dug it's way back out again (another hole)...

Help!!!! what is it?

I really like cactus plants, but im not sure which kind to buy. i need one that can surive through cold and hot weather (florida). i also tend to forget to water my plants, so i need one that just about maintains itself without much help from me.

I am thinking of having small-medium built in pool installed in my backyard. I was wondering how much it costs to have one installed, what are expected annual running costs and are there any pitfalls from having a pool. I planned to have it enclosed by fence for safety so I don't think there should be a safety issue and my youngest is 8 so there are no toddlers.

Also of interest, does it indeed increase the value of the home as I have heard.

Besides using bird houses, feeders, and baths. Do you use your flower beds and landscaping to attract birds to your yard? What plants do you use? How do you layout your garden in respect to birdbaths, feeders and houses?

Over the years the color has changed to pink instead of its original color purple. I have been told that a few house hold items can be used, but I can't remember what they are. If any one can help me out on these items or even a store bought product will do just fine, I would greatly appreaciate it. Thanks!

I don't want anything elaborate, just trying to get some curb appeal. My house is on a corner. The front of the house faces the East and the street side is South. The street side gets a LOT of sun.

The weed itself looks like the leaf of a carrot. It also has a white, long taproot.

My friend has a wisteria vine that wraps all the way around her front porch and she wants to give me a cutting to start my own plant. Where do we make the cut and how do I take care of the cut? Then once the cut has rooted, when and where do I plant it?
