I don't say this to be argumentative, but personally I'm not crazy about this garden or the inukshuks. The garden is kind of pretty, and probably looks better than most disturbed areas in an urban setting. But in general I would rather see a natural gully with native plants that would naturally grow in such a spot, not exotic plants like Canna lilies and Mimosa trees. Especially a species like Albizia julibrissin which has shown invasive tendencies in Florida and the mid-atlantic states. When I'm out in nature, I want to experience nature - not yet more signs of human disturbance of nature. JMO.

I have had good results with cuttings from lemon, about 2 months ago i cut back branches on one of my trees, took all the bits and tryed to root them, 90+% of the lemon cuttings are growing, i have also tried mandarin and calamondin since, none rooted I used a small plastic frame they sell as a greenhouse..., shelves with a plastic bag over it in reality, it was in the house in a bay window for the sun to heat the air, a piece of tissue paper to shield the sun from the plants The cuttings were all about a foot tall, i just cut the bottom off each just below a leaf node, left all the leaves on,i dabbed rooting gel on the end and pushed it into a pot of perlite, watered it, then left it in the greenhouse (tent shelf) it was at 25 deg C for about a month , i sprayed the leaves everyday to keep them wet, after a month i looked and they had rooted 2 inch around and new growth was starting Out of 30 about 28 rooted from the lemon, none from the mandarin or calamondin The cuttings i used were fairly new growth, it was green color but hard, not brand new soft growth

Best time Summer thru Autumn. Take a tip cutting 2-3 inchec long, remove all but tip leaf. apply 0.1% IBA (Rooting hormone) stick in well drained soil & mist taking 25-50 days to root. There are many books with pictures on grafting techniques at any public library that would be the best way to teach yourself.

Small town, village, rural - no way Jose. I'd never even consider an "outlying" suburb. For my taste, "urban" doesn't necessarily require high density. I grew up in a large city (LA) that's very urban but mostly not dense but for a few commercial centers. I live several hundred miles north of there now. I enjoy having access to good quality entertainment and cultural events, sporting events, restaurants, and (usually) competent service providers, most of which are rarely available in less populated areas. Also, areas with vibrant economies and job opportunities tend to attract people from diverse backgrounds who are better educated, more worldly, and consequently more interesting than one finds in small towns and rural areas. Those are the kind of people I prefer to spend time with. Sorry, no insult intended, that's just who I am. More of our vacation trips are spent visiting cities than not.
