Is it bad for the grass if I just leave them? I just wanted to know if people pick them up for cosmetic reasons or if it's bad for the grass. I will pick them up regardless but just curious. Thank you for taking the time to answer!

My mom heard from another person that this is true. I know it's really weird, but is it true? I want to know for sure. I'd prefer people who are experts, but anyone else can answer. Thanks!

We recently moved from the north to about 100 miles southeast of Dallas and have planted caladium. Is it necessary to dig up the bulbs or is there a way to care for them so that they can make it through the winter? What should we do to the hibiscus? Thanks

Both front and back lawns have big dead patches. We stuck to the watering rules laid down by the city. Want to know what is the proper way to care for lawn before winter comes and to give it the best chance come spring time.

I'm thinking that they are protesting the fact that they are still in pots and not in the ground. What do you think?

I have a little area near a privacy fence where I could plant them. This is TX, and it gets really hot. I could plant them with morning/aftnoon sun, or afternoon shade, or I could plant them where there is mostly shade. Opinions?

Thanks, y'all

As they start to turn from green to red, the tops start splitting from the stem down, usually 3 or 4 splits on the tops of each one. What am I doing wrong? What can I do to keep this from happening next year?

Some people like to include their work experience, titles or degrees as part of their answers. Some people even list this information as the source of their answer. Is this useful information that helps an asker to identify the best answer or just a vain attempt to influence the asker? What does the Garden & Landscape community think of this practice? Should this be practice be continued?

When one should one plant them, how they should they be planted, any 'dos and don'ts' about planting them and how should one get the best out of the bulbs producing them?

Any information on this subject, would be much appreciated.

I bought some Datura pods (she said they were moonflowers, they're not, they're moon lillies) last weekend. They are still green and I'm not quite sure what to do with them. How do I store them until Spring? Can I start them early? I live in Kansas so we won't hit frost until November or so. Any help gardeners?
