Removal crew assured me the stump would rot out but it hasn't happened. Short of digging it out what should I try next?

There seems to be a GREAT place behind my house to plant one of these trees. Getting one started ASAP would be great.

I have two Peace Lilies. One is about 4 years old and one is a few month old (meaning--since being in my house). They were both doing great no dead or brown leaves, were flowering like normal, not being forced to droop too low before being watered or too often.

I fertilized with leading indoor plant fertilizer, probably a little less concentrated than recommended, and since then each one flowered one more round and then never again.

These plants rarely don't flower; it is really hard to achieve, even with bad light, etc.

Since, it happened twice with the fertilizing, 4 years apart, I know that it is related to the fertilizing.

How to undo?

I live in Zone 6 in East TN. We have been having some warm wet weather the past week or so. It has been raining lightly the past few days and is supposed to rain the next few days. We are having temps in the upper 50's to lower 60's in the daytime and upper 30's to mid 40's at night. I put down some grass seed and starter fertilizer today to take advantage of the wet and warm weather. Do you think the grass seed will be ok. How much more warm weather will we need for the seed to be ok. Thanks for any answers

It is an indoor plant already that I will be cutting. It will not be the roots; just the upper half of the stem and leaves. Can I place it in a jar of water? Will it grow? Thank you.

We planted siberian elm 2 years ago........we have watered them per the recommended standards, they are in full sun, and they are not growing. Any suggestions? We were hoping they would be a good hedge by now.

A beautiful friend sent me myrrh seeds. I don't want to blow it, loving all things Maat Ka Ra Hatshepsut...these and other shrub/trees lined the causeway to her mortuary temple in the Valley of the Kings (Nova, National Geographic), Deir al Bahri. Smell good too. I've reached the end of the internet in my search to successfully propogate and grow = not confident in my research. To scarify or not to scarify, Is refridgeration the answer, what about the paper towel routine?.

any successful Myrrh growers willing to offer advice out there?

actual experience appreciated, no "copy and paste" please. Thankyou for all you do.

The last frost is usually April or early May and I want to be ready to plant a garden by then. I saved hundereds of seeds from last years Marigolds, Giant Sunflowers, Allysum, Portulaca and a few others. I have a small 4 shelf greenhouse and was given permission from the apartment manager to buy another one. That'll give me 6 shelves for plant trays and the bottom shelf to hold water for temp. management to keep the inside above freezing. I live in a South facing apartment so they will get full sun. Any other tips are welcome.
