There is a piece of land about 1 mile before you get to the front lawn of the house. Our drive goes back 1 1/2 mile before it dies into the garage. Dad thinks we should cut down some of the small trees on each side of the driive way which would created about 1/3 acre of land that is wide open. So I was wondering what type of landscape would look good in that area some thing that say home and nice. But not too plan out.

I'm growing parsley indoors, and it's been doing very well. Just in the last few weeks, there's a white powder on the leaves and it's spreading. Did I over feed it? (I use Miracle Grow) Is it from other plants in the conservatory? Very new to gardening and appreciate any advice.

Theres a lot of them this year, much more than normal, but that might be because this year I planted more flowers. I was just walking outside and there were 7 of them flying and hovering around me. has anyone else noticed this? or is it just in my area. i live in in ontario canada.

This might seem like a stupid question, but I am buying a lot of seeds next year for spring. And it says how wide the flower will grow. here is any example. a hollhock grows about 30-40 inches wide. does this mean 1 seed will grow that wide, or all of the seeds together will grow that wide? sorry this is a dumb question but i don't know. thanks in advance.

I don't know when morning glory seeds sell the best... is it in spring when everyone plants flowers or is it some other time that is better to sell them? I already ready have a bag that has more than 100 seeds from the past 2 years that I want to keep, but I now have 2 morning glory plants that are very soon going to have a ton of seeds to harvest and I don't need them and I don't want to waste them so I want to make a few extra change selling them. When is the best time?
