Plant Identification Contest
Published (2009-11-22 22:27:00)
It's the white phase of the plants around it. Same species, different color. I think if you check your June rose picture you will find it depicts Rosa gymnocarpa rather than R. nutkana.

You may try ant drops,(see your local pesticide caregiver) from your local hardware store, this will cause the ants to rot from the inside and perish, as a result from carrying the ant food to the queen.

Euphorbia Tirucalli
Published (2009-11-22 14:44:00)
E. tirucalli is toxic in and of itself, but I wouldn't worry too much about planting close to it. I use it as perimeter fencing and grow corn right up to within about a foot of it, with no ill effects to myself, the corn, or the cacti.

Try a Nursery that specializes in plants or a feed store if they have such in your neck of the woods. Places like the one you mention are good for seasonal specials but the good stuff is usually found elsewhere. D

My area is rated zone 2b, and I have had a Star Magnolia for many years. I cover it each year, and sometimes it dies back a bit, but it keeps growing. Flowering is different, though. It did flower very nice one year, and sporadically other years, but not what I was hoping for. So, given that, in a 3b/4 zone, it should do very well. It's not the one you were wanting, but I thought I'd give ...

With a large compost heap, the decay process will make the leaves get hot enough to kill most (if not all) infectious diseases; if the leaves are just spread thinly, they won't get hot enough.

Yes you can partly prune your grapes vine now, leave only the best new canes about 2 3 feet long for next year production. The final pruning can be done in early spring.

I consider mine a short lived perennial. I just pruned mine radically last month. I have some wild lantana in pink and orange, but also nursery grown yellow. They will grow back. In fact, mine are flowering again, but not heavily.
I think I have one from five years ago that just bit the dust this fall. Completely xeric, mostly sand, full sun. It's not like they are pampered by me.

Note: time change from 9am PST to 11:30am PST, as I have a meeting with a student. This will mean the forums will likely be down from ~11:30am to 12:30pm.

If you can see the fertilizer bits, you can remove it, scraping off the soil too. If it's a liquid and was too much, you'll have to remove a lot of soil and repot in a regular potting soil without added fertilizer. You might also want to drench the remaining soil with water, allowing it to run through the roots and drain out the bottom.

Hey,
I am wondering what is the hardiness of Metrosideros Umbellata is. I read that this tree has been grown as far north as Scotland in the Northern Hemisphere. I wonder if anyone has ever tried this tree in the Pacific Northwest anywhere and if it could succeed.....

Japanese maple? They're quite transplantable. I'd check standard methods for larger trees. If at all possible, start with root pruning, then some time later dig the tree. A professional with a tree spade can probably do the job, if that's within your budget.
The most prominent maple in Portland, Oregon's Japanese Garden was, if my memory's correct, from a home where the tree had blocked ...

Hey, Ann---take a look at this book. I like it a lot. It is written for folks who have a desire to learn and a passion for plants, but who are just regular people. Logical, clear, and makes sense to me.

you are correct. they are not the same plant. Myosotis scorpioides - has a yellow flower center. Cynoglossum occidentale has a white center.
