So pretty, then soooo ugly
Comments (8)Yeah, I am coming around to that feeling Eileen!!! or maybe a half way stance - - BUY poppie seed and throw it out there in late winter. This way I can just pull the spent plants once they bloom, not having to look at this incredibly sad mess. I do love the peony poppy flowers I've got, but the bloom time sure is quick. We were on vacation from 7/13 to 7/28 and they were ready to burst when we left, completely done when we returned. It just might be that the spot I have them in is baking hot and thye don't love it....See MoreWhy are my early ripes usually ugly fused things?
Comments (3)Cold weather during fruit production can cause some funky results. I'm a fairly new veggie grower, but I know from growing roses that if the temps go below a certain degree while the flower or fruit are forming, they will be deformed. This happens mostly in the spring. Some of my roses are more susceptible to this than others. I think we are all spoiled by the fruit and veggies we see in the stores. We don't see all the deformed fruit that doesn't make it there. It still tastes the same though!...See MoreHelp with rough, ugly laminate counter edges
Comments (11)We have installed laminate over our existing countertop, and the edges look perfect. It sounds a bit like the edges were not cut and sanded properly. Or maybe the tools that your dad used to cut the edges were not the right ones, or were not sharp enough so the laminate ended up rough. We used a router to cut the excess off at the edge and its important that the router bit is the one used for laminate trim - a flush cut bit. Also, presumably the router bit should be sharp, not old and rough. We also then took a sanding file so that the edge wasn't too sharp. Ours looks great. If the Sharpie by itself doesn't do the trick, could you use a file to smoothen out the roughness? If nothing works, perhaps try again by installing another piece of laminate. There are lots of youtube videos that describe the process. I think that is how we learned how to do it....See MoreUgly ugly hosta bed (title must have 12 characters so 2x ugly)
Comments (15)IMO, Undulata is a utilitarian hosta. It will grow right up next to a tree like this. Most hosta would look even worse planted that close to a tree. I agree, trim the scapes. I even trim mine before they are done blooming. On the other hand, all the boring grass, some with brown spots - that's kinda ugly....See MoreRelated Professionals
