My lawn is more weed than grass!! It may be too late to plant, I'm in Wisconsin, but I'd like a nice lawn next summer. Any suggestions?

I live in Zone 5 detroit, and I have ugly little bushes that give smelly little microscopic flowers in the summer. I hate looking at them
In zone 5 detroit, is there still time to replace them with boxwoods?I have one, and if i remember correctly, it kept its green leaves during the winter.

It's on the north side of the house I bought. It's got three really long branches/stems on it but that's it. It's a sad looking thing and I don't know what kind of rose plant it is either. Leaves are green though.

The flowerbeds at this house I just bought is awful.. wanting to do some permanent fixing to the landscape. I know black plastic is an option but I'd rather have something more durable.. but not if it's difficult to cut.

For the second year, my peppers and zucchinis have been devastated by some sort of garden bug, but the tomatoes aren't affected. Next year, I want to avoid this problem. What can I use or do?

i have about 2200 sf of dead grass that is in need of serious repair. The logical answer would be to just lay down sod because they yard is in such horrid shape, but I am on a very tight budget. The soil is basically as hard as a desert floor, not to mention it is uneven. Can anyone tell me the proper way to restore my lawn? I fear that laying down seed and watering my not work due to my hyperactive dog. The last thing i need is to waste money on grass seed to find my dog pissing all over it.

these things are driving me crazy! They've relocated from my backyard to my front yard (due to my growing puppy) and they are destroying my lawn. dirt piles everywhere! looks like my front yard got bombed. How do i get rid of these things for good? I tried to locate hole by sifting through the dirt but seems as if they cover themselves up. I have cats but alas one is de-clawed and the other kills occasionally, but not enough to keep the problem under control. Any good advice?

I have a large night-blooming cereus in my sunroom, is there any rules as to when it blooms? Every year, every two years? I just need an approximation, thank you...

I have some peas (Pilot) to plant for October. My garden is mostly laid to lawn (kids - football - you get the picture!). Any veggies I do grow are in containers - tomatoes, chillis, carrots. Would peas be ok in a container if I grow them up against a fence for support? I've never grown them before so any info/advice gratefully received. Thanks.
