Comments (0)Hello, I'm in Cocoa Beach, FL . I would like to purchase a young(ish) Clivia, a more shade tolerant variety, to live as a houseplant. I have one that my Dad purchased for us from White Flower Farms several years ago (over a decade) that is very happy and I have a great spot and a beautiful pot for a smaller one to grow into. It seems WFF only sells more mature sizes... Long story short, I want to find one with maybe 6 or 8 leaves but not too much larger. Can anyone recommend an online vendor, a trusted ebay seller, or a physical location that I could find one (within a reasonable drive of central Brevard County). Thank you for your help....See Morehave: live oak tree: about 10' in container. jax pick-up only
Comments (0)Hello, [Pick-up ONLY; I've no way to deliver this...Jacksonville, FL] I have a Live Oak I purchased in March from the Jax Annual Flowering Tree sale. I originally purchased it to donate, but have not found any suitable donors and it would be too much work in addition to the trees I've planted in our park, to transplant. It's about 10' tall (in it's container) by 3' wide. As it's in my backyard, I've been able to keep up with it with watering, very light / diluted nitrogen fertilizer and mulch in addition to protecting the sides of the container for the intense heat this summer. The container has extra holes drilled for proper drainage. The tree has not shown any signs of stress thus far. I would be more than happy to trade it for something along the lines of the following, or likewise suggestions, such as a small tree for the land between the road and sidewalk. [1] Feijoa Sellowiana (Would really love one or more of these) [2] Large Gardenia(s) flowering/scented that is easy-manage in Florida [3] perennial peanut that I can use as a groundcover/mow [4] suggestions :) Please feel free to contact me here or at cammunism at gmail dot com...See MorePicked this dresser up cheap, comments on how to repair a few items
Comments (7)Technically, that "condition" you see on the finish of the top is "alligatoring" not "crazing" and it's there because there is already waaaaaaay too much finish on the top. I think your best plan is to strip the top, as you suggested. Step 2 will be to repair the veneer damage, and without all that finish it will be easier whether you send it out or attempt it yourself. Step 3 will be a finish that will approximate the sheen of the original finish. I suspect that the original finish was lacquer so if you send it out to a pro for finish as well, the mahogany color match will be mixed in the lacquer itself, not done as a separate step. A lacquer finish needs to be sprayed by someone who knows what they're doing; don't attempt it by hand, using retarders, not on a top, and not as a first-time project. If the finish is shellac, and it could well be that someone in the past tried to revive the surface with a coat of shellac, there's still, IMO, way too much finish on that top. (If it is shellac, over lacquer or over some other finish, it should have been thinned... and several thin coats applied. That would avoid alligatoring.) Linda has suggested the possibility of reamalgamating the surface, and correctly describes the process. I would differ only by saying that lacquer thinner is appropriate for a lacquer finish and denatured alcohol for a shellac finish. (Personally, I would not mix them...) If there were not a veneer repair issue I would try a rather forceful reamalgamation, using steel wool and rags to remove much of that accumulation while it was in a softened state, knowing that I might have to add a thin coat afterward. But there is a veneer repair in the offing, and that's why I suggest a complete strip of the top....See MoreNeed help picking patio furniture!
Comments (2)I'm definitely still open, but I can't see what you posted. The link just brings me to this thread. I think if I liked the lighter color seats in the black set, I would get that, but they aren't neutral enough for me....See Morelucillle
