Hi All!!

I planted a Meyers Improved Lemon & a Mexican Lime, so excited to see them keeping my Miho Satsuma & Kinnow Mandarin company!
I am enjoying my citrus as well as my bananas...

Enjoy your week-end,

Scuba_Dave · 06-13-2009, 09:44 PM

I'm extending a front garden about 16', it's only 2' wide
I'm going to be transplanting perennials from other areas
Liatris, black eyed susan. some hosta, white daisy
Have to see what else I have

CValentine · 06-13-2009, 09:59 PM

Wow Dave!!
How land do you have to work with?
I have a little under a 1/3 of an acre.
We will have to see the awesome pics of progress, I hope!!

~Cheryl

Scuba_Dave · 06-13-2009, 10:05 PM

I have about 1/2 an acre
But I've converted a lot of spaces to gardens
I have a post & beam fence along the front & the side
I hate mowing along a fence so the front fence has a garden
It curves around to the side about 16'
Now I'm extending it another 16'
Eventually it will extend all the way along the side fence

I'm only extending it 16' long by 2' wide

mskitty38583 · 06-18-2009, 08:07 AM

monday i planted a stugart canna i bought at the flea market...i only paid 2 dollars. if i cant have an aeae its the next best thing.

CValentine · 06-18-2009, 10:42 AM

Ms Kitty... AWESOME!!!

ewitte · 06-18-2009, 04:21 PM

As of this morning i had 5 out of 9/10 of my papaya seeds germinated. They are in one of my 45gal smartpots. I was going to move my larger papaya tree but decided it looks too sick and better to start over. The larger one had fruit on it last summer when I got it but stopped growing/fruiting after transplanting it. I'm not planning on ever transplanting these. Just thin them out.

Well the 16' x 2' extension has turned into about 50' x 2'
I decided to go all the way along the side fence
And we have had miserable weather so slow going
I'm digging out the grass - about 30' along

On the plus side my monarda (sp?) will be blooming soon
And that means humming birds !!

mskitty38583 · 06-19-2009, 12:06 AM

here is my 2.00 honey....

WOAH!!! Make sure to leave some time for Summer fun...
I know how I can get obsessed with getting 'projects' done & leave no time for fun!
Hope you have some help Dave...

Ms Kitty...WTG!! $2? Looks good! LOVE the variegated!

Stay Cool! Have a great Friday!

Scuba_Dave · 06-19-2009, 07:12 PM

I picked up 10 Japanese Maple seeds today
So I am starting the process of growing from seed
So maybe in 60 days.....

Quote:

Use hot tap water, put the seeds in the water, then just let the water cool to room temperature with the seeds soaking in the water for 24 hours.

Next place the seeds in a plastic freezer bag in damp sand, peat, vermiculite, whatever you happen to have on hand. Any of these things will work. The medium you use should be damp, not soaking wet. Poke a few holes in the bag. Place the bag in your refrigerator. Do not put the bag too far back in your fridge where the seeds might freeze, you don’t want it quite that cold

The bag should remain in the fridge for 90 days. Or until the seeds start to sprout. Check the bag once a week after 60 days or so

Scuba_Dave · 06-20-2009, 05:36 PM
