Garden & Landscape - June 2006

Two of my boxwood shrubs are showing somekind of blight or bug infestation. I am trying to figure out what it is so I can treat it. Many leaves are turning yellow and black, and then dying off. I thought it was a fungus, but if you look on the underside of the leaf, there are 3-4 small white objects on them...they look like very tiny eggs. Does anyone know what this is?

My petunias are producing beautiful flowers but wilted leaves. They're in a container outside and the soil seems to dry out very quickly. I water them pretty much daily (usually in the evening) and fertilize about once a week. What am I doing wrong??? Please help!

I had three Clematis vines growing in pots on my deck and up the railing. They were doing beautifully! One day one of them looked a little wilted, I watered all of them and the next day it was fried. Totally crisp. The other two were fine so I thought it was ok. Then the second one went. What is wrong with them?

The pots are rather large so I doubt the roots are being crowded and it gets a decent amount of light but it is under a roof. It gets some direct sun.

They were in the ground last year but I moved and had to put them in pots. This is their second season.

What should the head of the flower look like when they are getting ready to bloom. I am new to this and I don't know how to describe what the head of the flower looks like. The heads on the top of my calililes are so heavy that they are falling over and laying on the ground. What can I do.

I am a daylily lover. I have found that once the initial scapes finish blooming, no other scapes come up and, of course, no other blooms develope. So, why are some daylilies called re-bloomers?
Who knows the answer?

I melted down my electric trimmer recently, bought a new one, who also gets really hot. I have an acre of land. I use 200 feet of 12 or 10 professional grade extention cord, but wonder if the 6 Amp motor just draws to much resistance in the line and ..... overheats

I spend hours hand weeding in my garden and my back hurts! Is there something out ther that works on all veges?? I've done mulching, tilling, and hoeing but the weeds keep coming. I've even tried preen but half of the veges didn't come up. Is there some kind of a miracle weed control out there that I've missed or do I need to just keep taking the Advil for my back? Thanks

I've been told two different things:
1. Don't disturb the compacted roots when you pull them from their container and replant.
2. Go ahead and loosen the roots up by squeezing, etc. before transplanting.

Which causes less trauma?
