Help with Shaggy Shield ferns (is it dying?)
Comments (3)I hope your ferns are doing better. I just got a Shaggy Shield - and I was looking up info on it and came upon this thread. I think, and I'm not an expert, that ferns do this (die back or disappear) in cold areas. I'm not sure they're evergreen. Maybe in warmer areas. I had several ferns that I planted last year sort of disappear, only to come back really nice this Spring! I planted two Japanese Painted Ferns, which I thought I killed last summer out of sheer neglect - and they delightfully surprised me by coming back very nicely this Spring! I'm going to make sure they get babied this summer. I've had different luck with different ferns - both Autumn and Japanese Painted Ferns have done really well for me. I've also planted Southern Woodland Ferns - which turned out pretty wimpy this spring - they're barely getting going, Korean Rock Fern - planted three of this, two died, one came back but is taking his sweet time, Ostrich - doing all right - started this one from a root, and Christmas, which is doing the worst. It started as a root, too - we'll see what happens. I hope my Shaggy does all right!...See MoreNew home (BlueStar, Kobe instead of Viking)
Comments (15)The Miele Miele Futura Crystal Series G5175SCVI is panel ready and sells for $1399 in the USA.Miele Futura Classic Series G4275SCVi is also panel ready and sells for $1099 in the USA but I know prices are higher in Canada. The Classic lacks the water softner and that is a problem if your water has a hardness level above 4 gpg. Every time I put a heavily soiled dish load into my Miele La Perla II and open the door after wash I am shocked We won the war.Serioiusly:)These are really great dishwashers. If price for Miele is too high Bosch 800 Plus Series SHV7ER53UC is really the best of the rest that is definelty under $1500. Unlike Miele, Bosch does not have really strict price controls so you should be able to find a deal without too much searching. The very best freestanding French Door IMO is Liebherr CS2062 but it is ~$5000. Counter-depth no ice. Really a top-notch food preservation unit. Great crispers and meat lockers. Gives you semi-clear high quality ice but not a lot of ice. About 2.5 12 oz glasses worth. If you are an ice-tea family or full glass of ice with soda at every meal type family the Liebherr will not give you enough ice. It can be supplemented with countertop clear ice maker($220) or built-in ($1500). About 3 years ago when it first came out the very first units had ice-maker reliability problems as well as door alignment issues. Fixed 2.5 years ago.The new ones are top notch in terms of reliabilty and effiency too. Other than that you are looking at the mainstream brands....See MoreCauses for Blue Princess / Prince Holly leaves dying
