Very fragrant tree with early summer blooms
Comments (6)Well, that would also explain the wide use in this area, home of General Electric and in the proximity of the Mohawk/Hudson rivers which have been subjected to PCB contamination by them. It is a wonderfully potent scent and I am interested to see what the herbal tea is like. I thank you kindly for your help and the interesting background information! Enjoy your weekend! Oh and by the way, the first picture you posted in the carnivorous plants heading, strikes me as a thick-leaved sundew. No, clue on the second, but if you strike out here, there are a number of Facebook pages with a concentration on Australian flora that may be able to assist you....See MoreThe Summer of two stories...
Comments (24)Well Will, you've got your 80 degree weekend. Hope you are enjoying it! After a giving everyone who needed it a drink this morning, I'm hiding out in the dark, cool house. Too much sun today for my battered old hide. Just checked the temperatures at my old hometown in Florida--after 7:00 at night, and the heat index is 106--"dangerous--outdoor exposure should be limited". This is on a barrier island with "cooling" breezes from the Atlantic. (Of course, the heat doesn't slow down the mosquitoes.) Counting my blessings that we now live in the Pacific Northwest. For those of you living in areas suffering from severe heat and drought, may you soon have cooling breezes and soaking rains....See MoreH. 'Mascouten' = 'Green Summer Fragrance'
Comments (4)Okay there, HH! I might should have left out that second example, because I know nothing about it at all. More than one hand appears to be in the making of that dilemma. Geisha conveys exotic beauty because our culture has the image defined. No such definition exists, culturally, for Ani Machi. In the case of Mascouten = Green Summer Fragrance, the finder/namer of the unregistered hosta GSF is the same as the renamer of Mascouten, which is to date unregistered as well. Van Wade has both in his online catalog as of the 2012 download. I looked for Mascouten in Don Rawson's Fragrant Flowered Hosta list, and instead found Green Summer Fragrance. What I bought from Van Wade is Mascouten. HH, that little "eh" at the end of your remark made me laugh, because I finally realize (from watching a geocaching video done by a Canadian) that it must be a Canadian syllable applied near the end of a remark. Much like the way mariners used to say "over" when they stopped transmitting on VHF radio....See More2 Story home - Help with thermostat setting summer & winter
Comments (5)I should have wrote that there is no reason to heat the upstairs as long as the pipes are not in danger of freezing. Non-stop is not bad for the most part, however, some variable-speed equipment is running at a lower efficiency when it is running flat-out. It then becomes a difficult calculation to determine if it is less expensive to turn on a second unit....See MoreUser
