Where do you guys get or how do you guys make...
Comments (8)Or...you could order the impress aluminum labels from the manufacturer for a very good price at http://www.amekron.com I find that they hold up way better than the flimsy ones from other suppliers that have only a single hole for the stainless steel wire. Since I've been using the Amekron labels I haven't lost one. The old ones have littered my landscape as they inevitably fall off after a few years because the wire works its way through the thin aluminum.

Comments (1)We had about 9.5 inches of snow on christmas day, east of Topeka. Nieces still drove down from Kansas City on Friday. Monday I found my back alley office door blocked with ice and snow from the plows. Needs to warm up!...See MoreEnormous Sagos -- what do you guys do?
Comments (8)What's your gardening zone? What are temps in your greenhouse? Average max/min? Extreme minimum? I can only speak from personal experience. I'm in zone 7 and have mine (must have four, larger tripple-planted specimens) in a large, detached, loft garage which faces due south. The worst of Winter is usually January. I run a fan and a small space heater--just to keep temps above the level of frost. Minimums in January are around 32F inside on very cold nights but days may not get out of the 40's at times of cold and clouds. Milder periods (even in January), can push temps through the 50's into the 60's (maximums). Never have any cold damage despite the fact that the cycads are on the ground and not raised. At the same temps I also overwinter large queens, Phoenix, Chamaerops, more tender species of Trachycarpus, Sabals, Chilean Wine, and Butias. Among the cycads, I have also overwintered Dioon and Encephalartos. I do however, have a problem overiwintering the Cardboard Zamia in these same conditions. This year, I may push things by seeing how long I can keep my Spindle and Triangle palm out there--they too have gotten big and I would prefer not to have to bring them in. Right now though, all the more cool tolerant palms and cycads are still outside as temps minimums have been no lower than the 40's--hardier tropicals may remain until December when temps really start to drop to frosty levels. PS., It is important to keep the cycads DRY if you decide to leave them in your cold greenhouse.--Mine are too massive to even consider bringing inside.--Besides, inside they get mealy bugs and scale big time! Good luck!...See MoreWhat do you guys think of this ottoman?
Comments (11)Glad to hear you guys like it too, sometimes I think my tastes are crazy. I will find out about the return policy. I know it is on sale so not sure if that affects returns. It might be a bit girly for DH but he doesn't really mind with that kind of stuff and I will be using it too. I saw a picture where a round upholstered ottoman "lived" part way tucked under the traditional coffee table so you could pull it out when you need it I will have to see if this one would slide under mine....I kind of doubt it. I could also maybe have it off to the side as an extra seat and then just pull it up when we want to use it as a foot stool....See Morernewste
