Garden & Landscape - July 2006

i need advise on a transplanted barlett pear tree. It is about 18 feet tall and had to be moved from where it was originally planted about 2 to 3 years ago. After the transplant it has been watered 2x a day by filling a mote that is around the base of the tree. however the leaves are turning yellow. is that a sign of shock or over watering? Is there a fertilizer or root hermone I should give it? The transplant took place around the end of June. Please advise

The holes are about 2-3" round, show no soil above the ground like moles do and they are everywhere! I live near Portland, Oregon.

We want to build a retaining wall at the front of our property that is sloped down to the sidewalk. At the moment there is just landscape timber that is rotting and only about 12in tall. Just wondering if anyone knows of a website detailing how to do it yourself, great products or helpful tips. We were thinking of terracing and filling in with plants, but we can not find step by step info on how to do this.

From the end of the abdomen was a narrow, pointed appendage. At first this animal appeared to be a large, flat roach.

Yesterday I threw out the plants on either side and the bees just started swarming. My gardening gloves were vibrating when I looked down there were bees trying to get me. I have a dumpster for two more days and this is the only potted one left. It is very heavy you need two people to heave it into a wheel barrow. That means our faces will be pretty much stuck in the plant. Help me get rid of the bees so that I can get rid of the plant.

I see several farms offering both turf and sod. Is there really a difference?

They are digging the flowers up and theyare eating flowers off the rest of the ones they don't dig out.

we have tried moth balls and even putting human hair around the bed but they continue to cause a problem.

and NO we are not going to kill them.

thats a picture of it, its about 6 weeks old, and is a tree that just started growing in our back garden, in the northwest of england. any ideas of what it could be? the picture's big, so you can see the leaves properly. (there are also small trees on either side, don't confuse the middle one with them)

I'm new to herb gardening (obviously). Will the plant still grow? Can I still eat it? I pulled the flowers off yesterday, is that wrong?
