have: don't have any seeds? i'll send u some for sase/trade
Comments (15)Hi, I am a part of my agricultural class at school and we created a fully indoor, self-sustained hydroponics system. However, as we are a public charter school, we have limited resources and are looking for donations. anything you can offer would be amazing. we can offer payment for shipping or SASBE. If you consider making a donation, please email me at makenziejordyn@yahoo.com Thank you so much, Jordyn P.S. We are just now learning how to start from seed, so any kind of donations you make would be appreciated. Plant sales will be used to help fund the school and excess produce will be donated to a local soup kitchen. :D...See MoreEnkianthus--Why don't more people grow it?
Comments (20)Funny that you mention wanting a hedge of these - I just discovered this plant while looking for suitable hedge plants. I plan to plant a varied hedge of enkianthus, calycanthus-Carolina Allspice (for the scent), and possibly some viburnum (for the colorful berries), ilex glabra - inkberry (because I like its neat form & cute black berries), red hydrangea (because they were on sale) and maybe some lilacs because one can never have enough lilacs (I love the scent). I might plant some joe-pye weed in there too because it's tall and smells nice. I was searching for shrubs that are more tall than wide, upright, with a neat habit, not invasive, that will stand up to wind, harsh midday sun, road salt (the hedge will run along the side yard of my corner property) and occasional drought. I hope the hedge will screen my patio furniture from the busy street to help prevent my patio furniture from being stolen. I just didn't want the standard uniform green hedge where the brown spots/dead plants stand out so badly. With my varied hedge, if something dies, I can take it out, no one will miss it! I love boxwood but my boxwood keep dying so that wouldn't work. I'm actually driving to Rare Find Nursery this week to buy these plants. I'll let you know how it works out....See MoreWhy don't people share more pics of their gardens?
Comments (71)wow renee, those are some very happy plants there. such lushness- looks like england to me!i thought so. cal was too hot for english style gardens,but what do i know? are you in san diego area? i really like, in particular, the framed view type shots.you have an excellent design sense for placing key large bold elements in your vignettes and balancing them well. I think the white walnut tree composition is a killer with all the subtle fascinating green elements of different shapes and textures; very Japanese design-like. Btw, is that moss in the walnut tree and pond photos? it is so intriguing. i've never seen a walnut tree I guess; had no idea they had fantastic white bark like that. grafted, it seems?I also think it's really cool how a photo can often show you a serendipitous design that was unintended (like maybe the opposing curves of the paved edge, the hedge, and the brug.arch?!) A number of your images would make really good Fine Gardening Photo of the Day shots. Share them; it's fun! i'm even going as far as to suggest which shots you might want to submit. I put them below, and maybe i'm cheeky (but i hope you won't think that)but i cropped a bit to highlight the best features of your already very well composed shots. Michelle at Taunton press (publishers of Fine Gdng.)rcves lots of submissions, but why not give it a shot?(oh noooo, pun ishment. (but i'm actually never talented enough to do a pun intentionally!)thanks so much for sharing these. they are very inspiring. best, mindy www.cottonarboretum.com/ this is from the site: "If you think you have a photo that we should share on the Garden Photo of the day, email us. Send hi-res images to mgervais@taunton.com with GPOD in the subject line. We'll only respond if we plan to use your photo." Here is a link that might be useful: Fine Gardening Photo of the Day...See MoreIf you don't likeTarget swiping your card...
Comments (31)I tried to return a pair of shoes I bought at Famous Footware originally paid for using my Visa card. The store manager refused to process the credit unless I let her scan the barcode on my drivers license. Store - company policy. Her computer won't let her!!! All returns, exchanges for size - everything - requires the Official Gov't issued pictured ID to be scanned, even if you originally paid cash! I am furious - I have never been in that store before, and won't ever go in there again. I am stuck with these shoes, because I refuse to let them scan the barcode. I spent time finding out if this is leagal - in this state it is - what may be illegal is what is done with the data they capture - like we really know! Between the "secret data" on that drivers license barcode (MVA couldn't tell me all that was on there) and your credit card # and profile - does anyone else see the potential for Identity theft or worse? It is easier to shop online, and becoming safer....See Morejkayd_il5
