Garden & Landscape - June 2006

I ripped out some old bushes that have been in front of my house for years. I plan on replacing the light pole also, but am looking for some ideas on what type of flowers to plant in the new space.

Soil may be classed as acid, neutral, or alkaline. Soil with much lime, or wood ashes would be apt to be alkaline. "Sour" soil, or soil with piles of oak leaves or pine needles would be apt to be acid. Those are only rough estimates. I want a way to check soil acidity or alkalinity using common household items.

Some trees attract radiation from the atmosphere more than others. With concern for depletion of the ozone, I wonder which trees to plant around my house for protection, and which to avoid. Do you know? I live halfway between the equator and North pole, 100 miles from the ocean.

I got an estimate to cut down 15 pine trees (about 20in. around at the bottom and about 50 ft tall - they're tall and skinny) grind the stumps, and push all to a burn pile for $1,000. Is this a good price or should I look for more estimates? They are located between my 2 neighbors/fences.

This is my husband's preferred method. He says since he mows the lawn, it is up to him.

I'm in a civic group. We have planted about 260 Jack-O-Lantern pumpkins on about 2/3's of an acre. We plan on selling them around Halloween. We have also started a couple dozen gourds in cups and they are ready to be planted. If the gourds are in the same area as the pumpkins, is there a risk of having cross pollinated pumpkins that turn out looking deformed? We don't want deformed looking pumpkins.
