I'm Fed UP!!!! Digging up ALL my brugs!!!!
Comments (29)Lol, poor Daniella. Ask him if he will do my laundry too. I throw it all in together and everything looks like crap, lol. I was telling John about this and he said ohhh good idea about the pots and the roots now that winter is coming he is wanting to bring in more of them so he is liking the idea of burying the pots in the ground then lifting the pots for the winter. He forgets before we did all these flower beds and I told him about this he told me I was crazy and why would I want to dig a hole and buy a pot. Just put the dang things in the ground and leave them there he said, lol. How soon he forgets now that he is getting excited that they are going to start blooming, lol. I bet we have sunken pots next year, lol. The one I had last year bloomed in the garage nearly all winter long. I think he is remembering that and realizing all those in the ground are going to have to be cut down and he will miss them blooming. Who wants to make a bet he digs up some of his to bring in the house instead of cutting them, lol....See Moreegg shell & vinegar for kumquat on own roots
Comments (6)My poncirus tree starts getting yellowish leave. I give it a tablespoon of this fluid after all chemical reactions have stopped,. With in a week the leaves green up and the new leaves start out green. After about another month the new leaves start coming out yellow and I hit it again. The kumquat trees do not show this as quick but they are also sensitive and I treat it when my PT are in need. The smart thing to do is graft my meiwa kumquat to the PT's but after about 30 attempts I decided to grow nagami s for interstock and try again. Buying a tree is not an $$$-option.

Comments (15)Hey Mike, I sent you an email. I actually have sent you 2 emails. I know your a very busy man but if you get the chance, please read them and email me. I really like that jade. Where did you find it? IS that a Logees plant? Hmmm...don't know if I would buy it from them if it is! I still have a couple dollar credit to use. How many plumeria do you have now? What varieties are they? I wish you could see my keylime tree. This is one imprseeive citrus! Must be that they are more vigorous than most citrus. This tree is a little over a year old now and has tripled in size. The tree is finally loaded with flowers, and I mean LOADED!! Too bad they are not fragrant. Kind of strange to me. Another mis representation of Logees. They describe it as being fragrant unless my tree is some alien mutant that does not produce fragrant flowers! Oh well...the Oro Blanco makes up for it. My other Oro is still potted but cut baxck to stubs. I can't give up on it even though for it to make a comeback would take a miracle! My Meyer is doing excellent despite falling over and damaging the surface of the trunk. It is now healing and I bought this huge sand bucket at Big Lots for $5.00!! All I need to do is make some holes in the plastic for drainage and it will be all set! It has handles on it and everything!! Well now that you and zecowsay have blooms on your Oro's I am crossing my fingers that mine will bloom! I still need to post a picture of the new one. Hopefully this one will take off. The tree itself is a lot larger than the first one and it looks even healthier. Your buddy, Andrew...See MoreWhat would happen if I "fed" my new roses with rooting hormone?
Comments (34)Just referring to Henri's comment about roots a few posts above, own root roses produced by vegetative propagation do not have a PR (tap root) as defined in his comment. Budded roses may have a tap root IF the understock was propagated by seed (as is common in Europe) but that will have been severed off at least once (maybe twice) until the rose finds its way into ones's garden. This is most probably unuseable knowledge but I just thought to make the point.. With regards to chemical fertiisers, the mistake that many gardener's make is to use all purpose, so called balanced, fertilisers rather than ones better suited to their plants and soil conditions. For the average ornamental garden, where not much is extracted from it in the form of produce and unless there's a severe imbalance in the soil, nitrogen is really the only macronutrient commonly needed to be added. As such they may be better off using less potent 'organic' fertilisers but these should contain an adequate amount of nitrogen (difficult to make sure) and be aware that phosphorus accumulation may also result due to excessive usage of organic fertilisers. In terms of cost, unless one has free access to the source of organic fertilisers, the cost of fertilising organically is commonly many times dearer than chemical fertilisation....See Morecitrusweekendwarrior
