The "Blackened" Sweet Gum limb is just a limb that broke this season...maybe during gusty conditions, but didn't cleanly come off the tree. As a result, it slowly died and the leaves turned black. It'll probably fall out of the tree in the next couple years. Did your region have any bad storms etc recently?

Vegas, organic gardening is certainly not a crock and luckily, many hundreds of thousands of growers are willing to go the extra mile to produce organic fruits and vegetables. You should know, though, that you will have to study up on the nutritional requirements of citrus in general...and figure out how to provide them,organically, within the confines of a container. You are going to have to provide everything that your plant needs; citrus have some specific micro-nutrient requirements. I see nothing in the Jobe's product that disturbs me too much, though it does not have micro-nutrients, also called miner elements. Fish emulsion could assist in providing some key elements, when used in conjunction with your Jobe's. HOWEVER! It really isn't intended for container culture. There are no directions that I see on the label as to dose and frequency. Another aspect that is troublesome is that I can see how repeated use of this product would muddy up your potting mix....fill the so important pore spaces with fine particles. If you were looking for a product with a high Nitrogen analysis, you'll have to go with something other than your 'organic' products. Lots of container hobbyists resort to the commercial soluble fertilizers, while still using using organic methods for the rest of the plant care. I'm not saying that you should, but just be aware that you will have to keep up with the fert. in order to provide your citrus with what it needs. Another factor in the yellowing 'may' be the potting medium. Again, container culture is entirely different that growing in situ. Garden soil or compost added to a perfect good potting medium can result in a mucky, slow-to-drain mixture. Roots can function in that kind of environment, which is why we have learned to provide a potting mix that remains coarse textured and porous. I may not be the only one that would love to see you re-pot your plant entirely. I'd also like to warn you that moisture meters are notoriously inaccurate. Most of us have learned to rely on the most sophisticated digital equipment we have....our fingers. ;-)

The stone is gray and gray is neutral. If you like it, don't paint it. Gray stone could go in a variety of design schemes: Coastal- rocks on the coastline; Rustic Mountain or Lakehouse; Zen gray neutral/ minimalism-natural stone; Euro Cottage -traditional & quaint- stone chimney/ hearth; Tropical.... Take a look at the link to the model homes-get your ideas in mind FIRST and then shop within that mindset. This link shows over 50 model homes of various transitional style color schemes https://tours.stevenjamescollins.com IMHO, Homegoods is good for when you are shopping for accents with a color plan in mind, not so great to get ideas as you might be tempted for every trend they sell. . Z Gallerie has a wide selection of wall art. Their pillows,are pricey, but with a little Internet search, you can find the same fabric and make your own. Perhaps my Kirkland's had a narrow stock supply, but I found their wall art limited. However, do shop in the clearance section for framed pieces. I found 4 (26x32 inch) framed wall art pieces that had driftwood wood frames in the clearance section for $20each. Frames of that size would be well over $100.. I removed Kirkland'sbrown board backing and the image inside and replaced them with giclee prints that I ordered on-line. I used a staple gun to close the back of the frame. The hardest part was using pliers to remove the Kirkland's staples that secured the backing.. The prints I chose were selling at Ethan Allen store for $300 each!!

well of course install would be bit more if you're comparing it to a click and lock type of vinyl. But are you aware they also have floating click/lock wood floors?? doesn't have to be a glue or nail down. this wouldn't be any more to install and you'd prob find exactly what you want, color-wise. https://jenwoodhouse.com/how-to-install-engineered-hardwood-flooring/ you could always install it yourselves. malibu wide plank click/lock french oak- home depot https://homedepot.sjv.io/kv990 BuildDirect And I'll bet you dollars to donuts the average homeowner would like this much better than vinyl. (but I guess it would depend where you live. somewhere in podunk NE prob wouldn't care as much as a metropolitan city area. Same issue w/home prices. places like MS where you can buy a home for 80K isn't going to be the same in a city where similar homes go for 600-800K. The latter will expect wood as opposed to vinyl) So if you live in a city where homes are super inexpensive, then I guess vinyl wouldn't be an issue. I mentioned this type of engineered flooring because you're the one who has said they've looked for over a month and couldn't find what's in that picture. this one is the finished flooring from HD from JenWoodhouse.
