I have a rhododendronI planted in early April. It is very pretty and I don't want it to die during the winter. I know it is a perennial but I don't know if I should prune, etc. Can you help me? I have searched everything I can think of on line, and found no answers. Spell check had me change the spelling of this word, so I hope it is correct.

Not the thin fish nets that are for decorating. I want to use a heavy heavy guage netting as a garden cover for somewhat of a shade.

I have four courgette plants, in large pots and they were really great to start with, several lovely courgettes on each. Then the leaves started to go powdery white and the little fruits dropped off and the leaves have mostly gone crispy and fell off. I have kept them well watered and fed with tomato food.

I think it is this new infection. Will the tree die? Should I burn the leaves this year instead of putting them on the compost heap?

When I was in college, I bought a plant called an autograph plant for my mother. It had oblong leaves and round green seed pods about an inch across. The leaves were so waxy you could leave a mark on them. It died, and I've tried to find another one for years, but no one seems to know what I'm talking about. Help!

I live in sunny south London, I don't have a greenhouse and as far as I can tell the soil type is 'brown' if any of that helps ; )

I am not particularly 'green fingered'.

I have two orchids and they never bloom. They have green roots and leaves and have been that way forever. The stalk has turned brown. They are planted in a mixture of dirt and lava rocks. my mom treats her orchids exactly the same and hers are beautiful and seem to always have blooms. what am I doing wrong? i've tried moving them to different locations around my house and on my patio. I water them about once a week.

......a couple years ago, and now wants to try growing veggies in her garden again soon. Do you think it's safe now, and if not what should she do. It can't be moved because it was done in the only sunny spot in her yard, the only possible place for a garden. Do you think it's safe now? Grass is growing good there now.

i have just built a 12mtr long by 2.5 mtr wide by .8 mtr deep pool with a disappearing edge on one of the long sides. we have a problem with the water going over the edge. I think that there may be 2 issues actually. 1. The edge is not exactly level. 2. we may not have enough water volume. 3. the water may not be returning fast enough into the pool. ie: the pump is too small. How can i determine the problem?
