I want to buy some Paperwhites that are marked half price. The only problem is that they have started to sprout (grow). The bag contains ten bulbs and I only want to grow two or three at a time. Is there anyway I can slow down the growth once they have begun to sprout?

One of my gutters empties right down the middle of my yard and has slowly caused the grass and dirt to erode. Now I have a small ditch that runs half the length of my yard. I've tried redirecting the flow using those plastic extenders, but the water always finds its way to this trench. How can I repair the trench (level it off) and is there anything I can do for this area (like laying paving stones, etc) that will prevent the same damage from reoccuring?

We are thinking of installing a vertical garden, like the ones by Patrick Blanc eg. Pershing Hall, and were wondering if anyone has an idea of the internal make up of these structures, including materials and irrigation system?

Hi I was given a Bonsai tree as a gift about a year ago (I am not a keen gardener by any means!)

The tree seemed to be doing fine new growth healthy leaves etc. I have been watering it every other day by sub merging it )over the roots) in a bowl of water for about 5 mins at a time and it was kept on my kitchen window sill with plenty of light and warmth.

A few weeks ago the temerature really dropped and it froze outside, the next day I noticed some of the tree's leaves (on the side next to the window) had gone yellow and started to drop off. I moved the tree in to my bathroom it's warmer in there and I thought the humidity would be good for it but the leaves are still turning yellow and dropping so it now has a bald patch!

So three questions really
a) Is the change in temp is the cause of this
b) how do I stop it
and
c) will I be able to save it

It was a gift for my birthday so has sentimental vaule and I don't want it to die! please help good people!

I got a volcanic potting mix with peat and cocopeat base is this potting mix good for my bonsai?

What potting mix or soil should i get best for my bonsai?
