Garden & Landscape - July 2007

Have seen a few in the shops but not sure which ones are the best to use on the allotment. Can they be used on all veg or only some. Any help or links to good websites are welcome. Thanks.

I would like to fence in my daughter's sun deck and create a home for her bunny so he doesn't have to stay inside his crate all the time. Would Perfect Patch be a good choice to grow some grass on the wood floor? Thanks so much!

Hi, I live in the city, grow flowers so don;t want tons of shade, but with our city fence ordinance, we can't build a fence higher than 5-6 feet and if I could plant some small type trees about 4-5 ft away from my back yard fence, it would give me privacy from the canopy of the tree. I would like non-deciduous, but it seems most evergreen grow small at the top and I need more like a normal tree with the canopy as privacy about top of the fence level and above but not huge so that it covers my yard in shade. I hope you can understand this ??? Any suggestions from those who really know trees ?

We have found patches of this stuff on our lawn and have no idea what it is. It appears in the mulched area near our bushes. It looks sort of porous - like globs of light-colored oatmeal stuck together with a gold-yellow colored type of... goo, for lack of a better word. My mom thinks it's cat vomit, but I've never seen cat vomit of that shape and color.

Hi, what causes brown spots on dahlia leaves? Can I cut off brown leaves or is it better for plant to be shaded by them? Also, some animal munched down one of my healthy plants. Any tips? Thanks!

I don´t know if I spelled this the right way. I cut one flower off (it was originally blue) and the one that formed is pink:)
I cut the other ones as well-is this the right thing to do? They were old and had holes from where the slugs had gotten to them.

I think my husband didn´t water it forever, and the bloom part (stem) is completely off. Should I throw it out and start with another one?

I bought this really cool plant but as the days go by he looks more and more like he is dying. I dont think the card from the store is right about how to care for the plant considering they gave me the card for a bananna tree...does anyone know where I can find this information?....I found some info like the light factor but that was all. I need to know about water and food and potting soil and etc.....Thanks for any help

We've grown potatoes for a number of years but this is the first year I've noticed we have strange 'fruit' growing instead of flowers on one of the potato bushes. They look like small un-ripe tomatoes and are very dark green and hard. All the other potatoes bushes are fine and have the normal flowers growing on them (and thankfully no blight). We've looked it up in our vegetable growing books but can't find anything about it. Does anyone know what the 'fruit' is and will the potatoes still be ok?

I have had 5 day lily plants in my garden for about 5 years now. Every year they come up the same golden color (almost an orange hue) as the year before but this year they are comming up a light daffodil yellow color. I have made no changes in which I am feeding the garden differently than last year. My other day lillies (I have various colors) are comming up the same colors as they have years before. Even my neighbor pointed out the change in color...does anyone know what could be causing this color change?

Was wondering if there is any mechanical thing or helpful hint for jucing blackberries. I figure that a traditional juicer would grind up the seed and I don't want that.

I grow all my herbs. I have a beautiful Oregano plant that I have nurtured indoors through the harsh Northeast winters. Recently I placed it on my back enclosed porch, which only gets heating from the sun and isn't insulated. It was doing fine, until I noticed about 20 little mushrooms (bright yellow) growing in the pot.
I used soil from the plant store. I don't understand what to do with it, because believe it or not I'm allergic to mushrooms.
Is the plant safe for me to use?

My box turtles love to eat them & I seem to have depleted my supply in the back yard. I used to be able to find them easily enough. I know they're out there, I just can't find them! I need to keep them beer & pesticide free so my turtles won't be harmed. I'm sorry, but they need to eat live things to survive, & I can handle snails.

I live on the gulf coast the summer is gettting hotter. Before I couldn't keep up with them, I was giving them away by the dozen now it almost stopped. I have a few but they became mushy. Is there a life span on these plants?
