Garden & Landscape - February 2007

My lawn is over grown with weeds. What can I do or what product can I use to get rid of them without killing or replanting all the grass?

I saw two baby raccoons tonight up top a huge palm tree, this palm tree has never been trimmed so it has thick dead thorny branches from the base all the way to the top where the new branches are groing. Does any one know about how well raccoons are at climbing and if so can they make it back down? I dont want to call the fire department! Thanks

I have a tiny australian native violet, cordate shaped hairless dark green leaf, that produces lots of buds that open as seed pods, similar in appearance to a tiny star anise. I really wanted a flowering ground cover - don't recall the latin name of this one unfortunately. Can anyone shed any light?

My fiance and I hired a guy to come and roto-till and level a large section of our backyard this past weekend. We met with him a couple of days before and told him what we wanted done, we agreed (verbally) on a price for the work, and he and his "guys" came on Friday to do the work. We didn't check the work thoroughly enough before he left, and on Saturday afternoon, we started doing some work on the yard and found he hadn't roto-tilled the entire area agreed upon, only random sections of the area in question, evidence of this is weeds that were previously there are still there, right side up, with their roots very densely packed in the dirt....and also there was a large (about 1'x1') piece of concrete buried about 2 inches below the surface of the dirt. When we called him to talk to him about it, he got very defensive, and blamed the guys he had working for him. He insisted that if he had known we wanted it roto-tilled deeper, he would have charged us more.

We are planning our wedding in our huge gazebo in the backyard and we want to plant something now that will bloom in August so that we will have "natural" wedding decorations. Any suggestions? BTW we live in New Mexico, and it is a dry desert kind of climate, so something that is good for Washington state for example won't work here...

I was at a very fine restaurant friday nite and I saw the most beautiful white fully opened roses I'd ever seen! The receptionist told us they were called "faith" and that they use a special technique to open them fully and make them live longer. She said they put them in very hot water and it opens them immidiately? I just don't believe that! Besides, I looked for that special white rose using that name on the internet and didn't find anything close to a rose by that name. I don't think she knew what she was talking about. Any feedback, guys?

I've been growing flowers from seed in my window sill. It is the only good place in the house that recieves sunlight and that has room for the growing lamp I am using. My cat has always had a thing with chewing on flowers, plants, and even dried arrangements but now she is chewing on my newly sprouted seedlings! Is there anything I can do to keep her away from them? (I would prefer not to move them. Like I said, it's the best place in the house that I can find)

My Cherry tree was a really great fruit barer, but last year, the main trunk died and about 4 new ones grew up from the root. They are now too 10ft each. Should I cut the old trunk out or what. Please help me. Thanks

I planted few bulbs in a pot, and it didn't grow for 10 days. I planted it upward. Is that right?

I Love the music from wind chimes no matter what they are playing. Did you know they never repeat the same tune, so when you hear the chimes just know it will never be played the exact same way again.

My favorite is the Bamboo, I wish there were some way to keep them from falling apart!

Is it absolutely necessary to dig up the grass sod when I am landscaping and putting in plants and mesh/matting and mulch?
I have always wondered about this question. Couldn't I just plant everything I want and then put down the matting over the sod and shovel the mulch on top of it or do I have to dig up all that sod?
