There is a white fungus on the base of a large tree in my backyard. I took pictures of it, but there is nowhere to post them on Yahoo Answers. I have an Ortho Gardeners book that seems to identify it as Armillaria root rot (oak root fungus). It says there is nothing I can do but make sure it doesn't spread to nearby trees by removing the tree and destroying the root system. It says that if the tree isn't that badly damaged, that I can remove the soil and cut out the wood in that area. Is that correct? Does anybody have experience with this and have any advice?

I bought a used Snapper Riding tractor. One of the belts that drives the blades snapped. After peeling the paint off the sticker (Someone re-painted this mower) I find what looks like LT16002 under model number. I tried searching for a belt for it on the various sites that sell them, but they require an OEM #. I have no clue what that is.

Also, anyone know anything about these tractors? I paid $300 for it, the tires are pretty shabby, but it runs just fine. The batter does tend to go dead so I have to re-charge the batter before starting it. Should I bother fixing this up? The other belts probably need to be changed as well. It is a 16 HorsePower briggs and stratton engine. I gave it an oil change - probably the first one its ever had. The muffler used to backfire some before the oil change (Not sure if thats related or not). The mower itself is intact, but just needs some TLC. I was trying to save some money - And I hear the snapper is a very good mower.

Thanks

I have a small, partly-shaded, town garden. I am looking for bright low maintenance plants that will last. I have been successful with fuchsias and geraniums but am looking for something else to complement them. Nothing that needs a lot of tlc as I travel a lot for work.

I just thatched my lawn and put down penkote fescue plus seed. It has rained steadily for the last two days. It seems in the past when i put down straw that shorty after the grass starts to grow, what appears to be mold starts covering the new grass and it dies. Should I avoid the straw.
