So it's okay to transplant zinnias?
Comments (10)I've transplanted zinnias. I adore them and plant tons of seeds directly in the flower and vegetable gardens. Once they are up, I don't have the heart to throw away the ones I thin and they end up in containers and other areas that need a little filling in. So far, no problem. They look a little sad at first, but I just keep them watered and they spring right back and bloom up a storm, and in double or single blooms, depending on the plant. BTW Susan, you can never have too many zinnia seeds, I think I have over 2000 seeds to plant this year. I consider them the workhorse of my gardens, can put them almost anywhere and have beautiful flowers. One of my favorite things to do with them is to put in rows interspersed in the veggie garden, like right next to a veggie that has an early harvest so the space is filled the rest of the season aka, cool weather crops like peas. I've also made living fences out of the taller ones, made a border in the open space next to my tomtoes one year to block the turkeys, worked great, got unturkey pecked tomatoes and beautiful flowers at the same time, lol....See MoreOkay, so maybe I don't know everything yet...
Comments (45)Okay, I'll leave it be and hope for the best. The pine nuggets seemed perfect, with some pieces being dime sized at the largest and some being really fine mulchy stuff. I'll see if I can get a picture when I go down to my mother's house this weekend, I don't remember the brand name. Was a massive bag for pretty reasonable though, I've used that stuff for nearly ALL of my plants this last repotting season. While most are houseplants, for edibles I planted an olive and a cherry tree in soil amended with it. Guess I'll just see what happens over the winter!...See MoreOkay-so rent and disrespect
Comments (11)Once, when my sister was a teenager, my dad was lecturing her and telling her about how much things she has cost. He was trying to get her to appreciate what he provided. She told him 'I don't need your F**ing money!' and stormed off. About a week or two later, she had her best friend over and they wanted to go to the mall. Her friend kept whispering in her ear and nudging her but she stood there. After a while, she finally came over and asked dad for $20 to go to the mall (this was in the 70's) and he said, 'I thought you didn't need my money?' and she apologized. Telling them it hurts to be talked to that way isn't going to have the same impact on grown kids as it does on little ones. When the grown kids are talking to you like that, it's usually because they are rebelling and trying to find their independence and feel like a grown up. I tell my kids that if they want to be treated like a grown up, then talking to me like that is only going to make me treat them more like a child. I tell them that is not how grown ups relate to each other. If I go to work and tell my boss what you told me, I'd get fired. My kids were told (when they were small) they can't cuss because they are kids so when my kids got older and then think it's the grown up thing to cuss every other word and I tell them that it is not how grown ups talk. There are times grown ups use those words and probably shouldn't but kids should never use them. I have to tell them how to behave like a grown up but they think 'I'm 18, I can do what I want'. I charged my older one $50 a week after he turned 18. I didn't charge anything if they were in school (and doing well)....See Morecamp Evelyn or camp Abraham Darby?
Comments (33)My Abe has been a very good plant, but has declined some since this picture was taken. Mine is by the hot street and blooms usually don't fry but guess we don't get as hot as Las Vegas. I do spray but not so much after June. My Evelyn plant has never been vigorous. I have a friend with two good plants of Evelyn. I think I'll sp my Evelyn this year and try again in a different location. To me Abe is more beautiful and fragrant, and repeats well. Abe with Carefree Beauty to the right :...See Moretinam61
