I have two huge (2'+ tall and wide, with 4' flower stalks) yellow iris plants along my walkway, but I want to clear that space for some smaller plants so the area isn't so crowded. These irises are my mother-in-law's favorite flower and I would like to give her these plants, but I'm not sure how to transplant them. Anyone have any advice? Thanks in advance!

We cut down a couple of trees in our yard in the last few years and now have the stumps left. I have heard that you can drill some holes down into the stump and insert something that will basically make the stump rot out. Does anyone know if this is the case or any other way of getting rid of the stump with out digging it up, chopping out the roots and ripping the stump out?

The tree is likely less than 26 years old. We've lived here for 7 yrs. The first few years we had tons of shade & lots of seedling activity (small prickly sprouts) in our lawn. Last few years, not as much shade (tree seems to have thinned out), lots of acorn like nuts- no growth from them, but tons of crows. This year lots of freezes (unusal for our climate) no change in tree for spring- very brown & droopy. Not sure if I should trim or chop...

I have a Seven Son Flowering Tree that is just a little tiny thing. I thought I planted it in a safe spot and it's happy there (planted it late last summer), but today, my landscaper nicked a small branch off with his weed trimmer. I want to protect the plant from further damage by potting it until it gets bigger, which is probably what I should have done in the first place. Can I pot it now after it's been in the ground? Also, I know we are not out of the woods as far as freezes go and I know pots aren't as warm as ground, so I was thinking of bringing it inside at night for about the next month or so. What do you think? Is this a good plan? Thanks!

I have a lot of small trees and branches at one of my houses that I would like to get rid of by sticking in a chipper. But, I don't really have a need for the wood chips. What can I do with them?

In the past, after cutting down these small trees and gathering up fallen branches, I just made a fire and put them in there. But, that's time consuming and probably not the best thing to do (yes, it is legal to burn garden waste and refuse where my house is).

I could probably use some of the chips for landscaping (maybe putting around a few evergreens), but other than that, I have no use for them. Will they decompose quickly if I put them in a pile in the woods, or is there some other way to get rid of them quickly without having unsightly piles of chips sitting around for years and years?

Thank you.

The tree dropped its leaves after they developed black spots, and the diagnosis was "blight." We don't want to lose it, but would like to try and treat it ourselves at a more reasonable cost!
Thank you!

The lawn has been mowed twice - probably shorter the first time than recommended. Any suggestions to green up those yellow areas.
