Comments (4)Cover the planting areas with thick layers of newspapers or cardboard to create a lasagna garden, this should improve the soil and keep the weeds at bay. You could also just cover up the rows with the newspaper and cardboard and plant through into the existing soil, that would at least limit your weeding area....See MorePrepare for Spring
Comments (2)Hey, Steve! I'm doing a few things in prep for maples. 1). Re-potted my Japanese maple (seedling collected last June) into a larger container with new soil medium. 2). Mounding earth/digging holes at new maple sites. 3). Pricing coral bark maples at the nurseries. Josh...See Moreunknown plants and new garden site (photo heavy)
Comments (9)Thanks, everyone. It's funny (not funny ha ha but funny might cry) to note that both the euonymus and japanese honeysuckle (not to mention the ivy and the GIANT BAMBOO GROVE) are all considered invasive plants. I wonder about the sellers - what were these people thinking? :) The onion blades and the seedheads are two different areas, will have to look under the seedheads to see what leaves are there. It was hidden in the brambles so I didn't get too close. Let's hope that the tickseed/cosmos type seeds produce something pretty, because I am sure I have dragged it all over the landscape....See MoreNew Free amazing garden site
Comments (7)There has been a huge amount of work gone into this site and its very different to the others in as much as you can input your plants - there will be the virtual garden coming soon as well. The subscription will be very small and worth every penny - Nicola has to make money out of this and I completely agree with her however she took the view that adverts would ruin the whole feel of it. If you have any questions about it - email Nicola and ask because she is very helpful and never afraid of criticsm - talk to her about the subscription issues you have and ask her how the site will be developed in the future. I have a feeling about this site I think its very different and here to stay - If you're interested ask if you can be involved with the beta testing of the new developments. I intend to get on the train and get settled before it gets properly under way!...See Moreexmar zone 7, SE Ohio
