I've never seen anything quite like this, have you?.
Comments (2)It's Echium pininana. You're quite far North for it to flourish but we've had a mild Winter and you say it's South facing. Just wait until it flowers! Here is a link that might be useful: Echium pininana...See MoreIndoor Seto with Bug Problem I've not Before Seen
Comments (3)The things crawling around are light to medium brownish and terribly tiny. Couldn't make out body parts with a magnifying glass. They move very, very, very fast. A search on the net came up with a description of crazy ants. Never personally seen ants that small though. They are quite sensitive to movement and scurry fast to avoid being squished. They don't seem to travel in lines. I purchased Terro last night and they seem to ignore the traps so far. Used orange oil hoping it was a barrier but nothing seems to be coming from the windows. Also heard baby powder was a deterrant; put some on the sills just in case. I will try the good grade DE. As you can see, I'm desperate to get rid of these things and hoping to avoid repotting again so soon! P.S.

Comments (4)thanks for the info Ken and bunkers. The top of my Vanderwolf is all green, in fact most of it is. Thanks very much "ken_adrian for the link! I've never seen so much as a brown needle on the Vanderwolf so it's shocking to see bright yellow all-of-a-sudden. The yellow needles do match my gingko leaves though ;-)...See MoreWent to a store for the first time in a long while
Comments (13)Fence is up! Decided to put it in in the front side of the house. More sun. I was going to eventually cut down some tree limbs in the back but not supposed to be getting my saw until the end of the month. I ordered it about a month ago! I realized this afternoon that a big part of where I was going to put the garden out back didn't get a lot sunlight. So just decided to put it on the side of the house instead. Only thing growing over there is a holly bush that is getting out of hand and over hanging honeysuckle and grapevine that the previous owner planted. It's all up in the big tree that hangs over my fence from the neighbors. The girls are going to come back and cut it down sometime. I got the front flower garden planted with mostly marigolds my daughter picked up on her way over here. I asked for 20 plants and she picked up about twice that much-lol. But that's okay will put them in with my vegetables too. They're coming back early tomorrow before the rain to help me finish planting everything else....See Morepetra_gw
