I'm going to Florida next week for vacation. Last time I went, I found some palm leaves and took them home, hoping to dry them. They shriveled up and ..... What must I do to dry the leaves for display in the home?

I have a chili plant which I grew from a seed, and I'm completely new to gardenging/plant care.

It grew pretty tall (about 18 inches) but has been constantly losing leaves to the degree that it's almost totally bare - just like a green twig with new leaves on the ends of the stems.

What do I have to do to save it? I started it outside, in the shade and water it regularly. I have added new soil and fertilizer (it's in a pot).

I live in Singapore where it's very hot, and I'm on the 17th floor where it's windy and I thought the wind was blowing the leaves off, so I moved it inside and it is still losing leaves. What do I have to do? Put it in the super hot sun? Thanks.

If I'm redo-ing my flower bed and I need to put down a new weed barrier, could I just go to the fabric store and buy some black polyester fabric instead of paying $30-$40 at a home improvement store?

Would someone recommend a website that specifically lists plants and shrubs that are and are not dog friendly? I would like to plant several in my yard this year but I am not sure which are poisonous. I would like to plant Sambucus Black Lace, Dalechampia dioscoreifolia (Bow Tie vine), and some different varieties of Heuchera.

Does the number of blossoms on my peach tree determine the amount of fruit I will get on my peach tree? Do the blossoms turn into peaches? Being in central Texas, is there anything I should watch out for on my peach tree? This is my first peach tree, and I would like to take care of it properly.

Im starting a vegetable garden in huge pots.Im a bit weary about putting harmful pesticides on my veggies and wondered if there was a way I could use something safe to spray on my veggies--like warm vinegar. Something safe. FYI: I am growing Broccoli, Cucumbers,Romaine lettuce,Spinach and Spearmint. I just planted the seeds yesterday. OH!! And what is Sod? How is this different from top soil? Is it a fertilizer?

Im not sure if I planted this stuff the right way, but I just got top soil, put the seeds in the dirt, watered it and gave it moderate sunlight. I brought my veggies in cause I figured it is too cool to leave out at night.

Thanks!

I recently bought a house with many mature pine trees of several varieties (spruce and ceder mostly). However the lawn under the trees is non-existent, not just dead, totally gone. The lawn is fine in the rest of the space, just dead under the evergreens. what should I do to fix the soil and replant so that the bare patches are gone?
PS, I have already cleared away the dead needles so its just bare dirt now.

And then what is the best, but most inexpensive, way of getting it to grow. We planted some last summer but not very much came up. I just want a yard!!!! How long will it take before we have real, honest to goodness grass, and what type should we use? Remember, we're keeping it inexpensive. :)
Also, don't know if it matters or not, but we live in Asheville, NC. Don't know how much climate effects this.
