These unwanted weeds are mixed all over my beautiful Agustine lawn. I'm afraid if I attempt to pull them out or kill them with weed killer, I might harm my lawn.

Our front yard is really small and very close to the neighbors. They are repeatedly on our yard, even talking to them doesn't keep them off our front yard. We have found that our grass has brown spots from their dog (we don't own a dog) their kids are continually crossing our yard, and along with the children their parents have ridden their bicycles on our yard. We will consider all suggestions. Thank You

I have a bunch of annuals around my house and I want some more. Being August, it's hard to find these plants in the stores, so I would like to root some cuttings of them. I've had some luck with one variety of coleus, but not much else. Any suggestions ?

My grass lawn is only 1 year old and gets plenty of water. It looks very healty except for several patches where the grass has died. The dead patches are in unusual shapes like a crecent moon shape or a letter S or 5 pointed star in addition to some that are just circular. The grass around the dead patches is very healthy. The grass was started from Sod and is located in San Jose, CA

I have a orchid that is in my bathroom on a shelf. I keep it there because I feel the humidity from the shower gives it the moisture it needs. It bloomed about a month ago. The blooms have fallen off and one of the leaves have turned brown. The stem the blooms were on is also brown. There are 2 nice, green leaves left. Have I lost this orchid or is it still alive. What do I do?

The leaves are turning purple and they're wilting. We've tried fungicides and pesticides, but it doesn't seem to work. It's not every plant, either---kind of scattered. Any ideas?
