roses at HD and Lowes in Dallas area (FYI)
Comments (11)Our Lowes has J&P roses in boxes for 16.97. This is pretty early for roses up here, but I'm real tempted to buy just one, oh maybe 2...they had The Disneyland Rose. What do you all think? Is that too much money for this rose? I can pot it up and keep it in a cool but sunny garage until time to plant. I am halfway tempted to hit the turnpike and head down to Dallas to shop where DallasDude and NorthTexasGuy shop. I am soooo ready for winter to be over. You southerners have it good---all those rose growers in Tyler, and Lowes and HD too! I'll have to check into the rose weekend at North Haven, sounds interesting. cindi...See MorePlumeria and Pineapple at Lowes / HD
Comments (32)I use bone meal once a month and water with bloom booster 10 50 10 and it works just the same as Peters. You can buy it at HD or LW. I bought this book from the author BOB Walsh called Growing Plumeria anytime and anywhere. He is actually talking about this new method called "the Egg Method" I haven't tried it yet but maybe I will in the early fall. i am also planning to grft Have not done it but will try anyway. Went home to Hawaii and brought with me about 40 different cuttings from Obtusa to dwarf Pink Obtusa to red pink and yellow. The Singapore Obtusa is the hardest to root and have killed a few of my cuttings. Killed? they are hardy plants "How did I kill it? Over watering, pls. do not over water your new cuttings. Leave them alone once they are in the pot for about a month until you see the eyes opening and leaves start to come out then they get very thirsty mix superthrive and bloom booster for watering. In the summer time put them in a filtered sun or under a canopy of shades. I am going to try to sell my 2 years old Celadines from Hana that I grow here in North Phoenix.I have about 12 of them that are 3 ft.tall with 3 or 4 branches from the inflouresence and ready to be tranfered to the ground or a big decorative pot....See Moreshower liner other than Lowe's/HD

Comments (37)I do not have time to read all of this, but want to encourage you to peruse and search this site for lawsuit, shoddy cabinets, etc. There are quite a few of us that ended up in court because we hired the wrong person. Knowing all that I know now, and knowing how the courts operate, I would never give my good CASH money to any small business again. NEVER. Now, IF you use a credit card and have a GOOF-PROOF, most excellent contract with every dot and tittle expressed, numbered, named, excellent drawings and inspiration photos all signed by you AND the cabinet maker so there is no mistaking exactly what you want or expect at the end of the contract, and have a finished sample door style and color (usually half goes to you, half goes to the cabinet maker), THEN and only then would I consider doing business. The credit card company will do and CAN do what no court will ever do without it costing you big dollars, the CC Company can credit you back for bad cabinets or not being satisfied. You see, the small guy has a contract with the CC co. and he is not guaranteed money "no matter what" he does. My case in point is just as suggested you do above, however, I paid CASH. I won in court, but CabFiascoGuy (as I call him here on GW) was incorporated and changed his business name. I would have had to hire another company to chase down his assets. The judge just said to call it even and we both go our own way. I got shoddy cabinets with a hideous finish, not as I ordered, crappy paint job, appliances did not fit, etc. (research my name). I am almost THREE YEARS OUT and am just now finishing my kitchen. I have hired five people to help do different aspects. Repainted four times (another story, but I ended up finishing them myself). Had to have all cabinets taken down, modified, reinstalled. 34 or so new doors ordered (all with a profile I HATE and did not choose.) . So, knowing how crappy it is to get involved with a company with not much to lose except a business name...is not anything I will EVER do again. I will MAKE myself be happy with something from a big box store. An extra month to wait for cabinets should something have to be reordered??? PUH=LEEZE!!! I have the patience of a saint now. I'm so patient now, I haven't bought a new car in almost 7 years because I'm willing to wait until the new models come out...then for a spring sale...then year end...and so on. I was NEVER like this before this cabinet fiasco. Thanks for listening. Be cautious. Even "nice people" can end up in court. Desperate people can do despearate things. Promise you the moon for the right price and persuade you to do business. I cannot afford to ever make the same mistake twice. PS. If a local guy will do business with about 25% down (using cc still), then I would be willing to pay cash once the cabinets were installed and I was smiling. This is about the only scenario I could agree with using a small cabinet maker....See Moresultry_jasmine_nights (Florida-9a-ish)
