Hey, that poster was you! Duh! Anyway, since you know the factory paint color names, you have come a long way toward getting the exact mix formula. I don't know who, but I bet somebody can run it for you and make all you want. Start at the Toro dealer. It's certainly worth an email to Toro/Lawn-Boy. No doubt the records are still there, but getting somebody to take the trouble to get the info will be the tough job. I'm guessing what you are calling 'mint green' is the center mower which is a lighter green than the others. I think I would have to see them in better light but it appears that it is lighter than 'Grabber Green' Dupli-Color. I don't think any of them are the current and past twenty years 'lime green' (Grabber Green) but it may be the light that's throwing me off.

1.)Claire sez: A room of their own! Ha! When my houseplants finish their inward trek, they'll be lucky if they get a seat near a window - winter is sort of like rush hour on the subway in my house. Plants standing shoulder to shoulder leaning towards the light. It's a beautiful room - a very peaceful place to sit in. Claire Well, Claire, you have a few more years of gardening up north to account for the Grand Central situation. My depth in northern (read: winterizing) gardening is less than two winters. But I am quite fond of enjoying my plants all year. The first time I lost my lovely May Night salvias due to the dry heat. And when it got really cold, we went south and nobody was here to look after them. This year, we are fortunate to have friends staying who usually live aboard their sailboat. That is something you cannot do up here during the winter, unless you want to be a popsicle. Down south I don't have to winterize MUCH, but we are planning to take an old cement block garage/workshop which lost its entire roof several hurricanes ago, put a polycarbonate roof on it, install an Endless Pool in one end and house my tropical-like plants in the other, along with a tiny dining table for all-weather enjoyment. HE thinks there will be a workshop in this space, but that will NOT happen. He already has a storage shed for his ugly piles of stuff. With the economic crunch, this plan will not happen immediately, needless to say. But I am already using the space in a crude fashion. I'm thinking of buying a roll-around basketball goal, use it as a center pole and putting a large nylon parachute over that, then tying sandbags around the parachute perimeter and throwing them across the top of the walls. This will not be perfect, but perhaps it will keep all my ferns and tender plants alive through the winter months down south. I won' have to bank bales of hay around them like hubby did several seasons back to keep 2 hens and a rooster alive up here. 2) cynthial_2006 sez: I recently brought in my plants and now have an infestation of white flys (I had bought "Good Soil" from a local nursery to pot my elephant ear in and the soil was contaiminated with them). I have put up the yellow sticky traps and have been spraying my plants with neem oil. Any sugestions that might help? Cynthia, Mr. Jones at Jones Farm here in Chelmsford told me to take all my plants which had spent the summer outdoors and spray (actually he said SOAK) them with this oil and let it dry before I brought the plants indoors. I did that pretty much as he described, and so far have found only one cutworm on my beloved geranium babies. I have no idea how to deal with white flies. I used traps in the kitchen to deal with the flour moths--disgusting the way they can grow inside sealed packages of grain products. One thing I use, which is safe around my parrots, and dogs, is a product called CAMICIDE. It is a pyrethrin insecticide. When you have parrots, you don't want ants, seed moths, roaches, etc. And you don't want residual poisoning. I'm not sure if Camicide is safe on plants or soil, I know it is not poisonous to animals after it dries. However, I don't put it where they can eat it. For a real gardening product to do the job, I'd ask this question as a topic all on its own. It will be a quick way to get your perfect answer.

Update (if anyone is still reading), The contractor and the stone fabricator determined that the corbels that we presently have will do the job, these did not flex at all under a test stress. The soapstone will have the steel reinforcement spanning from and between the corbels; the 2 large ones we presently have and 3 more for the straight run (not shown) in our diagrams. This 9' x 17" straight run (also on adjoining pony wall), will assist in anchoring the weight of the eating area, as well as the cabinets on the other side of the overhung soapstone by the stovetop. Note: Under this area we have 2 beams running parallel (4' each side of the pony wall) of the overhung area; it's well supported. Templatting is scheduled for end of April. R.
