Hallson Gardens

It looks a LOT like Deep Blue Sea which should be easy to find, or is it the name that appeals to you?

Thanks, Chris. I like it again.

Oops, I see it now. 0 New Messages, duh!

I finally got my message away but it wasn't as easy as on the previous format.

Got hung up on the Recipient. When I hit Preview, recipient's name got deleted. Then I think I clicked on Add, then it worked. It's kind of confusing. Where will Private Message Arrived show up?

Chris, I don't see where to send or receive Private Messages on this new format.

Jan, I use a lot of mulches year 'round and never had a problem with crown rot. Ideally fall leaves should be added AFTER the ground freezes or at least after critters have already found their winter abodes to avoid them nesting in your garden. I leave the foliage on hosta plants until they're limp ...

Annie, I was fooled too. I was wondering how Jane still had rhubarb in September.

I have been talking in terms of a bleach solution of 5-10% as the range recommended by Bruce Banyai, the chlorine dilution is actually much lower, BUT, it will depend on the brand of bleach you buy as to what the actual dilution of chlorine is. Haven't looked at a bottle of name brand bleach lately...

If they would fit in your car, wouldn't they fit under your kitchen table or in the bathtub? Do they predict it'll last more than 24 hours? Stash them indoors in trash bags. Good luck whatever you do.

My hostas too, are standing shoulder to shoulder overlapping one another. This summer I've been potting up the duplicates and donating them to any good cause. It does make me feel good now to see mulch and air space around some of my favorites, and to think I paid a couple bucks for hostas that fetc...

Jan, it's resembling the wildly popular Stitch n Time. Are you going to divide it off?

The better you feel, the better you look. Does Andy like skinny women?

Hosta weedlings are so dern cute. I decided to toss my leftover seeds into my rocky borders, just for the fun of it.

HaHa, Dave, that isn't me in your pix, but she looks a lot like my mother. :lol: After 4 days of travel, , traipsing thru gardens, and a non-stop schedule, I was thrilled that so many took the extra time to check out my place too. I could have visited with you all for hours. Thanks for coming. The l...

Those articles are dealing with root nematodes, the marigold remedy may not affect foliar nematodes.

Jan, do you think some seed blew in there, or are they mature type roots?

Asparagus roots go down to China, don't think you can transplant them successfully. That might have been the farmer's wife garden before we were born.

My Blue Shadows is chunkier and blue margin is wider, both are about 6 years old.

I have two varieties that get a partial leaf wilt/collapse every year. I think my rain barrel drains too near the crowns, or my soaker hoses have been sliced. The soil there probably stays too damp so some sort of fungus/rot sets in? The major part of both plants look healthy.

Sharp-eyed Dr. Dave noticed this in my garden on Sunday, misting on Dancing in the Rain. Four leaves look like this, the rest are white centers. Registration says "centers develop light green frosting in the heat". I didn't know that.
