Garden & Landscape - November 2006

I am going to plant two Weigela shrubs,and want to know if I need to fertelize after they are in the ground. I live in Massachusetts,and it is the first week of November.The temp will be in the 60's this week.I use plant fertilizer stakes in my house plants,and was wondering if they are recommended for shrubs as well.Any other suggestions on a succesful planting would be appreciated.I am adding cow manure to the soil mixture too.thanks for your help.

Hi, I am planning on cutting a tree and applying Roundup on the stump to kill the tree and its roots. Since the tree is so large and old and its roots run so deep & all over the place, we have decided to leave the roots in the ground and hope that they'll decay on their own overtime. My question is if we leave the roots killed by Roundup in the ground, will the herbicide reamain in the roots and kill other plants that we do want growing near and over the tree roots if their roots happen to grow into the dead or decaying tree roots?????? I am concerned for the health of my other plants and grass...any advice???

I have just bought my first house and it has a TON of friut trees that have not been maintained over the years. I havr a lawn mower but it does not have a bag, I am wondering what would happen if I mowed over the leaves and left them on the ground. Also, if you have a gas mower, can you mow the lawn when it is wet?

The pronouncement has changed in the past few years - the "i" was always silent - now it is pronounced "poinsett-ya". Why?

Everybody I know calls them monkey balls, what are they really? They're about the size of a baseball and lime green with grooves like a brain. I work with children and would love to tell them what they really are.
