Thanks for the pix of your tree frog. I hear them here but don't see them as our trees are so big. I am glad you found the right thing to feed him. Perhaps put his food on a tiny tile so he can find it easily and you can tell when he has eaten. I believe you need to use the lid of a plastic containe...

Donna, I have a son in Denver and know what the growing conditions are there! I hope you will have some shade soon. You could make a wooden trellis to shield the hostas. I grow in a small yard with clay soil and 8 super big old Oak trees, so the roots are a constant drain on my hosta beds. We have N...

How well I can see that you enjoy your fur kids. I am dogless/catless right now. DH developed asthma and doesn't want a pet (he thinks). I am gimping with bad knees and hip or I would get a dog anyhow. We do feed the chipmunks and squirrels though, and I would hate to lose a chipper or chase the squ...

Dear Ken, you are so brave to number each plant on your list - you that means that if one dies out you will need to find another to fit into that part of the alphabet! Joke! My garden is much smaller so hostas and daylilies are the major interest for me....concentrating on the former now. It's a len...

Dear Tina - I also have 4 boys ages 52 to 42 in July. They all live in other times zones, except the 3rd one moved back to STL a few months ago. They have given us 6 grands - 3 of each kind and ages 23 to 4 1/2. I just have a small backyard with many large Oak trees to shade the hostas!! I am withou...

Helen, pleasedtameetcha! You must get Abiqua Moonbeam! If all goes well I will definitely send you one later on. My DH has been doing my garden chores since he retired: he can now dump a plant out of a pot and plant it in a good hole!! I am a renegade from the daylily society but still have enough t...

Dear Old Coot, Bless that wonderful wife. I always say that it has taken me 52 years to raise my husband to the level of perfection that he now enjoys! So you are finally into the squirrels....we too feed them and the chipmunks as well as the birds. When people crab about the squirrels I try to tell...

Thanks to Jane and the Old Coot for answers and good wished.....whenever people say a long marriage is a feat I usually reply that it just doesn't seem as long from the end that I am on as it does from the front end! You know, life is like a roll of toilet paper....the closer you are to the end, the...

How could this happen?? I look in the mirror and see a 75 year old broad, married 52 years to the love of my life! From early childhood on I have been a "gardener". If I am not doing it, I am dreaming about it! The computer is still a novelty to me so I am not very efficient with it. That said, I re...

Leafy, have no fear! I am certain that your find is not from the deceased, but rather from some other hosta gardener who took a good look at the large and impressive Elegans and accidentally dropped his teeth (literally). He was so excited that he didn't miss them until much later! Now, doesn't that...
