Marty replied to Sarah Sexton's discussion Direct Sow Annuals in the group Zone 5
"Marigolds and Cosmos do very well planted from seed when the soil's warm. You'll have flowers by the end of summer and through the fall until a hard frost. You can also try Sweet Pea and Morning Glory, especially if it's by a fence…"

Marty replied to Tiffany - z5, Ohio's discussion Can anyone tell me what this is? in the group Zone 5
"Those look like wild black-cap raspberry canes. They set underground runners and unless you yank them out you'll have a thriving patch of black raspberries in no time! Nice for the birds and yummy for jam if you don't mind a prickly hedge.…"

"If the area gets maybe half bright sunlight a day, try some lupines. The soil may be too acidic for many kinds of shade lovers unless you sweeten the soil with lime, dig in a load or two of composted soil or build a raised bed around the base of the…"

Marty replied to Sally Smith z4's discussion May Apples (Podophyllum peltatum) in the group Woodland gardening
"May Apples are funny... leave them alone and they'll multiply like rabbits. Especially if you allow leaf mulch to cover them in the winter. But if you knock them down, they die and won't return. I have a large patch under very tall oak and…"
