any suggestions on what to put my mints in?
Comments (5)Carealot: Good luck! Last year I planted three little barely rooted, half dead, scraggly sprigs of mint in three separate one-gallon plastic pots filled with some rather poor potting soil. I placed them on the ground near a bramble of blackberries in an unkempt place in my yard near the woods. I piled some bark chips up around the pots to keep them damp, and watered them just sufficiently to keep them from dying. Near the end of the summer, all three pots were completely full of mint shoots. Toward late fall, the mint had fallen over and rerooted in the pots, in the bark mulch, and trailing all over the damned place. This spring the stuff came up from roots and runners like that damned plant in Little House of Horrors. I have dug up about twenty new shoots and repotted them to give away to unsuspecting, not-too-long-to-be friends. I hope they pass the joke along next year. My original plan was to have just enough mint to make Arabian salad dressing. Now I have enough to choke an Arabian stallion, and it's only May 25!...See Moreany suggestions for perennials to plant with my roses?
Comments (49)floridarose, I got my seed from a friend, but I always assumed they were something like Summer Carnival, but after being open pollinated for years, things can change. There is some variation in height, but most are a little shorter like SC, and do often bloom the first year. It's hard to tell if they act as short lived periennials or are just reseeding almost on top of the mother plant. I don't stake my hollyhocks, but grow them against fences and the house. I've tried the Madame Butterfly snaps, and didn't like them as well as la Bella. Not only do la Bellas live longer than most other snaps, when they are pinched back they promptly send another single thick shoot up. When I pinch back Rockets, they start branching off with floppy shoots, though they also live through winter here quite well. La Bella doesn't reseed like the other snaps I grow, though (darn). It's probably a hybrid that wouldn't breed true, anyway. Here is a pic of Rocket snaps. Off to the side are some pink la Bellas. Hopefully, my file isn't too large for posting here....See Moreany suggestions for deep, but inexpensive range hoods?
Comments (4)thanks for the tips everyone - sorry for my delayed response seems only the much more expensive range hoods come in depths greater than 24 inches - the $500 range under cabinet ones do not seem to. I can bump them out - and in fact - when trying it on my Home Designer program - doing it so looked like an aesthetic improvement as well :-) The max height above counter of the cheaper range hoods is 27 inches, not 30. I wonder if that would make a bumped out hood more annoying? I am only 5'8" and my wife is only 5'2" though. Here's a link to a rough 3D rendering of the kitchen we are building along with a complete reconstruction of our circa 1905 Edwardian era home. http://s67.photobucket.com/albums/h307/dpkform/Miscellaneous/?action=view&current=Kitchen2.jpg I say rough - as the program does uses generic images - that's obviously not a Bosch slide in - but it gives the idea. Since people will ask - the software I use is Better Homes and Gardens Home Designer Professional version 8. The same interior rendering could have been done with the much less expensive Better Homes and Gardens Interior Designer version 8 software. Yes, I got the backsplash idea from another member on this site - thanks ! We disposed of our entire home, gutted the studs, the joists, the structure, all mechanicals, everything. We left only the original double brick exterior shell. The home will be 100% brand new construction inside - steel structure and reinforced concrete footings are all new. No more wondering what lurks behind walls - as the walls, plumbing, HVAC, electrical etc are also all brand new, and built to surpass modern building codes :-) We'll be using custom trim, flat horizontal panel shaker style interior doors, historical paint colors, etc, to ensure our "brand new" 103 year old house, still has a century home feel to it. The price to be paid for staying in a location that we love!...See MoreSirloin Flap Steak??
Comments (10)You should grill it on the BQ. In Boston this is called Steak Tips... with restaurants that sell nothing but Tips with Salad and Fries. We buy this in 5 pound bags in the summer, whole... which gets cut up into "Tips" like what you see on kabobs. It can be broiled but most home broilers do not give out enough heat to do it right. And there is no other way to cook this. Well, no other way you should cook it, anyway. It should be cooked no more than medium. But preferably rare to medium rare is best. If you got it whole or in long strips, either leave it as strips or cut into tips, but make the tips large enough so that they won't overcook more than medium rare. Cut each 'strip" into 3 or 4 at the most large triangular tips. It is delicious! You can marinate it, but you can grill it without one, too. It has a nice "chew" to it and it's very juicy and tasty! I have finally found this in Florida..none of the butchers or supermarkets had any idea what it was. Enjoy! It is very good eating....See More- 5 years agolast modified: 5 years ago
