The previous owners of our house put in a beautiful stone pathway leading up to the front door. The path consists of paver stones with concrete in the crevices. Unfortunately, either they didn't level it or it skewed over time, because now it's a hazard with stones sticking up at odd angles. Is there anything that we can do to level it back out without removing/redoing the whole thing?

I have an antique cast iron trough which I would like to fit into a recess and fill with plants. Unfortunately the trough is longer than the recess. If I arrange to have the middle section removed and the 2 ends welded back together plus drill holes for drainage will this greatly devalue the item?

What is the latin name of the tall pine with a long straight trunk and the needles only on the top quarter? You see them in old surburban gardens planted in groups.

My nephew started an avocado plant from seedling but yesterday he noticed the leaves were being eaten by a caterpillar. We know it is a caterpillar because it was still there. How can we save the plant and not harm the caterpillar? We live in the Atlanta area of Georgia in the U.S. where the weatther is crazy this time of year. Very cool mornings, hot midday and back to cool nights. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
