Poppies--can we talk about the?
Comments (54)Melissa, I was wondering the same thing about the Oriental poppies. Just wanted to post an update. I planted out all of the annual poppies two weeks ago, and they have made it through several nights of freezing temps, LOTS of strong winds, etc. and survived just fine. They are even starting to show some growth. I'm pretty certain now that the problem last year was that it was too warm by the time I planted them out. That high altitude sun can really fry young sprouts! I'll try to get some pictures of my baby poppies to post. Bonnie...See MoreCan we talk about Whirlwind?
Comments (20)McT, I'm SOOO glad you responded. This is great information! You had some comments on Whirlwind on an old thread and I knew you would have some valuable insight! Ken, I live at 44.7 And yes, I do agree that gardening in the US is completely different than the UK, but I am interested in their gardening insights. Eventhough their climate and and sun angles are completely different than anything we have here, I believe their insights are worth drawing from. I don't think I'd want to cut out the 3rd act, but since I love Whirlwind's variegation, perhaps I can limit the 3rd act to a shorter part of the growing season! Since I'm looking at creating a grouping of 4 or more plants, moving the entire family is not quite as easily as relocating just a single Whirlwind. So, I don't want to have to move them all again next year if I do not like Whirlwind's performance. I guess I'm just looking to make an educated decision about where to best maximize Whirlwind and her progeny....See MoreWe've talked about products we love. What about...
Comments (25)I like Burt's Bees shampoo & conditioner, especially the new one "Super Shiny" because it tames my dry hair. However, there was a BB's product I tried years ago that was so awful it actually caused me pain. I'm referring to the Theraputic Bath Crystals. When I put it in the bath water my skin felt like it was been burnt alive. I couldn't jump out of the water fast enough. I've read reviews where others have had the same reaction but most people don't seem to experience a problem so I guess it depends on how sensitive your skin it. Mikasa...years ago I bought a couple of their white soup bowls open stock and loved how durable they were. So was I surprised a few years later to see how much the quality had changed when I bought an extra one. Utensils left ugly marks on the bowl that didn't wash out, even a spoon was removing the finish. I thought surely this is a fluke so I got another one and the same thing happened. Don't know what Mikasa changed but that product has gone downhill since I first bought it....See MoreCan we talk about layering rugs? (Trail??)
Comments (9)Hey Anele...I have several different schemes. One is in the music room , specifically to absorb sound .Due to the wood floors in the whole downstairs and 12 ft ceilings there is a lot of reverb ! DH needs the rugs to be layered to help with that. I just let him pick what he liked from all the Persians we have....they all work together because of their origin and the walls are a very light creamy yellow. Upstairs I have wall to wall and the Persians and Tribals are just where ever the sprit moves me to put them when I lay them out. Due to our color schemes in this house/art work and I can pretty much put anything anywhere. I take up all the rugs every Spring/ Summer and put them back out in the Fall /Winter. I like the feel of my feet gliding on the cool wood floors ;) Thank you for your sweet comments !! I don't have a problem with them creeping on the wall to wall. c...See MoreAnnie Deighnaugh
