Are there any plants that you can literally stick a piece off it in to the ground and it will grow into another?

My house faces north and south. My back patio is great to sit out on, but in the evening the setting sun blinds the patio.
I live in Texas so shade is better in the summer time.

I would like to put up a latice fence from the patio to the roof of the patio on the West side, effectivly creating a wall.
However if I'm going to sit outside I don't want a bunch of bees to be attracted to the flowers I have crawling up the fence.
Any suggestions???

I would like to know what is this flower. It's been growing in our house for over twenty years. I just have to separate its roots which are bulbs, like onions, and put them into new pots or flower beds and they keep growing. The leaves which are like grass blades keep growing even if not watered a whole lot but the flowers only grow if they are generously watered, what could they be? Does anyone know the name of these flowers?

I know my ladybugs. I once spent an entire concert staring at one. Or so I'm told.

Transplanted from Asia, to control the pests of our provinces farms Now they have become pests.http://www.ca.uky.edu/entomology/entfacts/ef416.asp

Same thing with the lovely weed, Purple Strife. Imported to beautify the roadsides of Ontario.
Now they are trying to rid the farm crops of this crazy wild spreading weed.

I have a large maple with a bit of a split in it, along with large portions that broke off (one dead part) this summer. It's important to the property, and this fall I've been meaning to get in touch with a certified arborist to come take a look; to tell me what's going to happen to it, and if he can, to do whatever's possible to save it. I also have some oaks that died--I was going to ask why.

The nearest arborist (a county away) has a phone number and e-mail listed. I've taken photos of the tree, in the event I'd e-mail initially.

I've been quite busy this fall, however, and haven't had time to get in contact. Now I have the time, but the leaves are nearly all off and it’s 30-degree weather.

Is this something I should wait till spring to do? Or, for the health of the tree, is it advisable to do it ASAP? (i.e., Can arborists can do anything this time of year? Or would he just look at it and schedule any work on it for spring? [Assuming he even makes visits now.])

Thanks.

I had a splendid small summer garden and have now pulled up everything, added new compost and tilled that in with a good covering of composted lawn clippings. Now I am wanting to have something growing in that area and looking for suggestions.

I just noticed mold among the soil for my potted plant. Does that mean the roots are moldy? Will this go away, do I repot, or will I have to throw out the whole plant?

I never understood this. I've smelled many flowers in my day, some do smell better than others. But in general, all of them have the same grassy scent. It doesn't stink, but it certainly doesn't smell as good as everyone says it does.
