Please help me ID this plant from Home Depot!
Comments (5)I also have a mystery plant from Home Depot! I bought it based on looks and know nothing else about it. I didn't even realize to look for what it was until after I got it home.

Comments (4)It's on most of the lists of plants that can be toxic to cats and dogs. And if it's not on a list, it should be. Don't you wish that there was a way that these people who sell plants be responsible for proper labels? We certainly expect that from reputable garden centers....See MoreUsing Home Depot steer/chicken manure as compost for planting
Comments (9)Just40fun ---- [1] To answer Q1, I must relate how I got my ÂherdÂ. I did not buy them, so canÂt for sure identify the species - Eisenia foetida or Eisenia Andrei - But from what I pick up from the Vermicomposting forum, quite often when one buys one variety, you get the other or a mixture. But they are definitely composting worms. I harvested them from the earth below a pile of aged horse manure, and from my compost pile. I then put them in a Âpit with horse manure, compost, kitchen scraps, and paper shreds for food. And you canÂt believe how they have multiplied! You can harvest from a manure pile, buy online/locally, or even purchase bait worms ["red wrigglers"] // [2] Since my garden consists of smallish terraces, I have no room for trenches, so hesitate to prescribe for your situation. That video seemed to give a pretty good idea  and then you can alter for your situation. My sister Âsnaked a ditch through her perennial bed, filled mostly with horse manure and worms and covered with cardboard and topped with the mulch for the entire bed. She is 40 miles inland [hot,dry] and has clayish soil. She reports to me that she finds worms whenever she lifts the cardboard and the soil in her garden is improving. I believe the worms use the trench as a home base, and move into the soil, when conditions are moist enough. [3] Fill your trench with whatever is handy  manure, paper shreds, leaves. Hay will heat up as it composts and might make the worms unhappy, so donÂt fill entire trench with hay. After it has composted a bit, the worms will migrate into that material. But by all means cover the trench with a layer or slab of hay/straw to control moisture and temps. [4] CanÂt say how often you need to refill. Too many variables. [5] I would suggest starting small Â. One trench this season, and then if successful, add more each season. BTW - After 30 years of amending, my clay/DG-combo soil has morphed into lovely loose loam. In addition to double-digging, sheet composting, mini-worm ÂcondosÂ, IÂm a great believer in planting cover crops with deep, strong root systems, to bust the clay. And voila, an OVERNIGHT SUCCESS!

Comments (4)Oops! I realized that I called Lowes, not Home Depot. When I called the Home Depot in Garner today, they said they didn't have any more camellias and not much else left. So I still didn't go. I did go to the Wake Forest Home Depot, and they don't have any camellias, but they did have several assorted shrubs and a few climbing roses 75% off. I didn't buy anything, but I thought some of you might be interested....See Moregatormomx2
