Garden & Landscape - March 2007

I've read online and found sites that recommend 10-10-10 fertilizer, on the other hand, I've also read that it does well with ferlitlizers high in Nitrogen.

The flower I often see on a poastcard from Hawaii, and even on some Hawaian license places, I think, has big, floppy pedals (usually about five) and a tall thing (stamina? stemina?) coming up the middle. When they're in color, the pedals are usually red, pink or purple and the thing is yellow. It'd also be nice if you know what the thing is called...

Everythime it rains or snow melts, our backyard becomes a mini pond. The grass barely grows back there now and it is all weedy. We can't mow it because its either wet or the grass and weeds are too high. A friend told me that I should plant a Willow Tree right there because they suck up a lot of water. Which in turn would allow us to mow and have nice grass. Is this true or is there a tree that might be able to live under such conditions and help? Thanks

In southern california, a contractor quoted me $10 a sq ft to have my two car driveway redone. This includes busting up the old concrete and hauling the debris away.

My front loan does not have very good drainage, and I was thinking of planting some plants to improve the drainage, or to help me get rid of water. Any advice? Thanks!!

I have a lot of veggies left over from a party, and I was wondering if I should leave some for the rabbits and deer. There are small carrots (that are oddly sweet), red pepper slices, cucumber slices, and raw broccoli. Should I leave them out for the rabbits and deer? We recently had extremely warm weather (60 degrees outside right now and the 4 feet of snow we had a few days ago is gone now). Our raspberry and current berry bushes. The birds right now are chirping like crazy. So should I leave the food out for the rabbits and deer or is it a bad idea? Will it take them several days to find it or no?

The dogs are both large, my back yard is 1/3 acre, I'm looking for whatever treatments might save my lawn from becoming a dirt-pit with worm dog paths. I love the dogs very much and do not plan to get rid of them, I would rather find methods of fixing my lawn instead. Thank you to all who provide serious and helpful replies.

I have an area in my backyard that is about 3 feet X 4 feet and it would be perfect for a palm tree (the tree would sit right over my jacuzzi). The area just has decorative gravel right now. I live in Vegas, so palm trees thrive here. Can I have a palm tree put in with that amount of space?

Since I moved into my new house my house plants have started housing nats. I don't know what to do to get rid of them. Is there a treatment I can put in my plants or should I stop watering them? Help.

Leatherjackets are the larvae from daddy long legs(Crane Flies) They hatch eggs in the autumn and develop into little worm type things and they eat your grass roots thus leaving you with bare soil then they turn into daddy long legs and the whole process starts again They are called leatherjackets i have been told because their skin is so tough oh and their not nice like a leatherjacket you would wear they are horrible little beasts

I planted a few Green Giants, which are about 5' tall, last fall and they have slowly turned brown and yellow. We're in a zone 6, but it's been a cold and really wet winter. We used some packaged manure when planting, could that have caused the problem? Am I just worried too soon and once the weather is warm will they come out of their funk?

we have just moved to a house with a good size but neglected garden, and although i don't have any gardening experience i would love to learn. we have started out by cutting right back some massive leylandi on one side, down to about 5ft. they look pretty rubbish although we now have loads more light in the garden. the other side of the garden borders our neighbours gardens with a wooden picket style fence about 5 ft high, and some very small shrubs. the ground here is very very wet. i would like to plant something that will eventually grow to about 5-6ft and be thick enough to bush out and hide the fence. ideally evergreen but maybe something that will flower yearly? i'd maybe like some thing tall at the back with something shorter in front so it looks really colourful in summer? any advice on what would be suitable to plant would be much appreciated. i live in lancashire, uk, if thats relevant. thanks

I live in South Carolina. I want something that is going to be the best bang for the buck as far as looking nice year round, possibly flowering in the spring, summer, or whenever. This will be a main focus to the front of my home. I also would like something that I can plant flowers around, like Black-Eyed Susans. Any suggestions?
