Please offer your opinion on what would work.
Comments (6)Own-roots are just going to be wimpier than what you have. A decent rule of thumb is that if it is going to dieback over the winter, it will do much better with a strong rootstock. MM has a reputation in the east of just plain not being worth much. I grew Tropicana when it was still under patent, and it was a decent performer. I'd expect you could get something out of it so long as it is a grafted plant from a reputable supplier. That may mean it is coming from Canada at this point in time....See Moreplease post photos of your progress
Comments (5)Well if your bored have a look at the two links below. I tend to be a little click happy with the camera so I apologize for how many pictures there are. Just do a copy paste in your browser as I don't know how to link more than one URL. Pictures of Outside of house: http://www.kodakgallery.com/I.jsp?c=13wbryy0.113c8a70&x=0amp;y=-frpgl1 Pictures of Inside of house: http://www.kodakgallery.com/I.jsp?c=13wbryy0.8rb1ki7k&x=0amp;y=-sfy9fy We broke ground on Nov 9. They are now working on the hardwood floors but I haven't taken any pictures of that....See MoreFireplace, my progress in pics and your opinions, please!
Comments (19)Fillagirl, I'll definitely try that. Great idea! Thank you. I love the look of some screens but I really like the idea of the doors with young kids around. Wonder if it's possible to do it both and still look nice. I'll keep you posted. Speaking of Better Homes and Gardens, there's a fireplace in the October issue with a bluestone hearth and then bluestone, too, over where my brick is now. Looks beautiful. Something to think about! Thanks again!...See Morepics - Would this work in my room? Opinions please?
Comments (11)Thank you to everyone that took time to respond, especially at this busy time of year, and Happy New Year to you. I have decided not to get it, and to look for something more traditional. I agree it would have looked nice with an aqua blue pottery bowl, but then I feel I would be moving more towards a south western or globally influenced look, and would have to switch out too many other things. Thanks for helping me decide....See MoreUser
