Burying the money
Comments (61)What Outside is describing will happen to anyone who begins Medicare coverage before starting Social Security. For those not getting some kind of government pension, Medicare has to be paid in advance, quarterly. So thinking of calendar quarters, imagine you paid in Dec-Jan for the Jan-March coverage period. Your Social Security benefits, from which Medicare is always deducted, start for the month of February and so February and March Medicare premiums have been paid twice. Medicare refunds the overpayment promptly. There's no bonus, a double payment gets refunded....See MoreRaven re: burying the money
Comments (16)As I recall.....you put a penny on a windowsill. Just one in a window on New Years Day, preferably just after midnight. For luck/money throughout the year. I should ad....my husband teased me.....we sold a house....one we didn't like for waaaay more than it should have sold for....the only house we ever sold with a penny in the window.....so he/my husband....ran around the house saying he wanted to put pennies in every window!!! Like a nut! His silly excitement was fun....as he attributed our apparent "luck/money to your household" to my penny in the window......teasing me. You don't have to sell the house to get the "lucky money"....just happened that way for us. :0) Or so it seems....See MoreBury the money!
Comments (37)I hope this does not portend disaster....I buried 2 cents in a pot of plants in front of my apt. When I went to dig them up, I could only find 1 cent. And a buried pecan. I suspect a squirrel might have buried the pecan, it is a really large pot, but why would he dig up a penny? I'm hoping that Those In Charge of Good Luck will decide to grant both me and the squirrel a good year....See MoreBury the graft.... don't bury the graft ... the Conundrums of planting
Comments (10)In a way, this matter seems to me so typical of rose growing -everything depends on location, perhaps. Here in Tuscany, Italy, I have learned that the best way to plant a grafted rose is to place it so the graft is only SLIGHTLY below soil level. It's important that only the " bulbous" bud union is buried, however,or at most only the very tiniest bottom of the scion's canes. If done correctly, many rose wil "go own-root", and you wind up with the best of both worlds. But woe betide the rose that is planted a little too deeply! they wind up sprouting roots at the bottoms of each cane,thus creating a small thicket of teeny-weeny wimpy seperate little plants all competing and bickering with each other,and if you don't catch the problem, dig up the rose and fix the issue quickly,the plant never flourishes,declines into nothing.But apparently this doesn't happen in some cold northern climates, where I read of gardeners planting their roses very, very deeply.I feel equally "shocked" when I read of roses being planted with the graft above the ground! yet clearly sultryjasminefinds this the best way to do it. Now, sjn is in Florida, zone 9a; here in Tuscany, we are more or less a zone 8 or 9; to me that just goes to show that the whole thing about USDA zones has only a very limited value; the climates are completely different. The idea of flooding in my garden seems preposterous; it is on a mountain, on a sharp, sharp slope (though as I write this, part of me whispers"but with Global Warming, you never know!"). I've never lived in Florida, but from what I've read the soil there is quite particular, too, and totally different from mine.The same goes for California,I think. So, Sharon, I think your best bet is to follow advice given by local rose growers or at least other Florideans (is that a word). I do not know much about the different rootstocks to be able to give an educated opinion ; all I can say is that here they don't seem to use Dr. Huey at all (the only 2 I can think of are Laxa and Multiflora).So far I have not had the serious problems with rootstock suckers of which Jackie writes,but my garden is very, very young in comparison to hers, so even there it's hard to come to a definitive conclusion....See Moreeld6161
