I've had it for about 8 years and it only bloomed once about 3 years ago. 3 blossoms. I was so excited . They were a beautiful light butterscotch color. It didn't bloom last year and then this year, it got 2 buds on it and they fell to the floor. I found the second one this morning on the rug. The plant itself looks kind of healthy tho. What am I doing wrong? I don't fertilize. Is there a better fertilizer to use for them? Thanks.... Abby

tilling under in the ground in the spring? To break up clay soil and hopefully improve it? Or on top of grass and mowed over as a sort of mulch/fertilizer? I have been finding a lot of it thrown away in dumpsters and "rescuing it"...I don't know if it is expensive to buy, but free is the cheapest of all...guess I am becoming a hoarder...hard to quit dumpster diving when you find usable stuff...and lots of pumpkins for the seeds...also addicted to craigslist "free " stuff and curb alerts...LOL..Help! I can't stop!!

I planted a green giant thuja evergreen around 09/15/2007.
I didn't notice at the time it was planted with a slight lean.
Will it straighten itself out next spring when it starts to grow, or should I do something about it now.
I really do not want to disturb it.
I planted 3 total plants and they all are getting light golden brown on every branch on the very ends (tips).
Is this normal.
Thank for any advice

Hello everyone

I asked a similar question the other day, and got loads of very helpful responses, so i'm hoping someone is able to help me out again today!

I have a bunch of photos I've taken of flowers (and 1 plant), but absolutely no idea what they are called. The photos are posted here:

http://www.photobox.co.uk/album/7058423

To me, flower 4 looks very much like one of the ones I posted before, which people told me was a gazania, but as i'm no expert, i figured i'd include it in there with the others!

thank you so much in advance

For that matter for my plum, almond and cherry trees too.... I bought them and planted them in august, they are already 2 years old.... have they gone through their slowest growth already? Does it pick up now in growth.... b/c mine look thin and I am told they are supposed to start giving fruit at 3 years of age... which would mean next year, but they just don't look strong enough... they are all between 6 and 9 feet tall. thanks.

I have changed spark plug, air filter and cleaned out old petrol and replaced with new. Still won't start. Has always been difficult to start.

I have a huge rubber plant and, uhhh, well, a tropical looking thing--I haven't the slightest idea what it is. I water when very dry, they are getting a medium amount of light, and have been fine forever, until now...of course.

Leaves have been dropping off like crazy, so I changed their soil and added some of that "Miracle Grow" stuff....to no avail after 3 weeks.

Anyone know what's going on or how to revive them? Or is it time that they take a 'dirt nap'. The rubber plant looks like it's a goner. It has only one leaf yet. Ahhhhh, I'm a plant killer :-). Sad, but true :-) :-) :-).

The pests have curled each leaf inward on itself. When I unfurl the leaf, I don't see any bugs or eggs, but the leaf is scarred. Do you know what type of bug this is or how to get rid of them. Many ficus trees around Tampa have this right now.

where can I buy it?

I just bought 3 of these and want to know a little about:

1. How deep to drop them in the ground?
2. Do I need to plant them near anything (so they'll climb)? I read that they'll climb, but I don't prefer that.
3. Assuming I plant them alone, will they hang and not break?
