Hybrid Musk Pruning - Can Someone Help Explain This To Me?
Comments (8)The older I get, the less energy I have, the less my roses need pruning at all. That is my new axiom in gardening. I think pruning is largely a matter of fitting the plant into the space allowed in the garden. The older I get, the less critical my jaundiced eye becomes. This year I had very little time for pruning and consequently many roses did not get pruned. One of those was Penelope. I have never seen her look better. Odd, isn't it? Then again, this year I managed to prune Ballerina before she leafed out (haven't got to her the previous two years) and she looks about the same as always. More and more I think that pruning the diseased canes and dead one (but only if you have to--the dead canes will be discarded by the plant eventually) works best for me. Buff Beauty who was moved last spring and pouted was not pruned and he looks pretty good as well. (Why BB is a he I don't know). Course, his looking good is really a matter of sprawling wherever he wants and that's exactly what he is doing. Now mind you, pruning only diseased canes can be a matter of cutting to the ground depending on the location of the disease, and this year I have a couple of those. Anyway, my advice on Hybrid Musks (and any rose for that matter) is prune diseased canes, step back, take a look, and prune for shape depending on placement in the garden. Don't forget to have the beverage of your choice when its over. Celebrate the work and enjoy your results....See MoreCan someone explain bidding wars to me?
Comments (4)So under contract means that the seller and buyer have agreed on a price, and if everything works out (ie, the stuff terriks mentioned, the financing, the inspection, etc. then its a done deal). And if I understand correctly, for multiple offers, they would have to come in all around the same time where the first buyer and seller hadn't agreed on a price yet? Yes. The laws vary state by state. In NY, nothing is legally binding until both sides sign the contract - so a verbal acceptance means nothing. Once each side signs, the property is 'under contract' and neither side can pull out without financial repercussions except as specified in the contract (financing falls through, property fails inspection, etc). Most sellers here write in a 10-day window after sign date for inspection to take place, and ask for mortgage approval information within a specified time period as well, so if the contract falls through, they can get in touch with other interested parties ASAP. In the multiple-offer negotiations I've been involved in, most have come in at the same time, usually when the listing is fresh and generating the most interest. When our place received multiple bids, we had four or five offers within the two-week period right after we listed. When we'd purchased that same place nine years before, however, the then-seller had multiple offers stretched out over months. He had been in torturously long negotiations with the second buyer (like, three or four months of back-and-forth) when we saw the place - the broker told us there was a contract out but neither side had signed. We were willing to match the previous bid AND sign the contract right away, since the sticking points for the first buyer were non-issues for us....See MoreCan someone please explain tree height to me?
Comments (23)2006 Edition of Trees of Seattle says there was a 41 ft. Hiro-ha-katsura at the Arboretum at that time. Its accession number indicates it was acquired in 1946 (without delving further, into Arboretum records it could have been anything from a seed to a tree of some size then). The book also mentions a planting of 3 at 1123 16th Ave E, consisting of two on the street and one 25 ft. tall in the yard. With 2 regular Katsura sharing the planting strip with the 2 C. magnificum. You can find out where other trees you are interested in are located in the Arboretum by looking at their web site. Walking around collections like this, with extensive plantings of trees and shrubs - often with some time behind them - is a good way to get a feeling for the visual character of various kinds. And how much space they may come to occupy. Trees of Seattle - Second Edition http://www.arthurleej.com/tos2.html...See MoreCan someone help explain how to replace this switch?
Comments (8)Why do you want to replace it? You describe it as working properly. If you are looking for the receptacle that it's supposed to control, the problem is at the receptacle. Look for the one with a red insulated wire connected to one gold screw and a black insulated wire connected to the other gold screw. Then break off the tab that connects the two screw plates and the switch will control that half of the receptacle. If it's another problem, please post back with details. BTW, that's 14 gauge wire so the circuit must be limited to 15 amps. Also, I avoid using back-stab devices such as that switch due to their inherent tendency to fail, but that's another story....See More3katz4me
