Hi all I have a problem I walked out to check my veggies this morning and there are some kind of EGGS all over them. how do I get rid of them before they hatch without just spraying them into the dirt with the hose? is there a way to kill them?
Everyone loves a bargain, and gardeners have traditionally learned to make do with limited resources. Free is even better. Share your tips and finds here!
oh oh oh oh Dave!!! I found a giant blue iris at my best friends family nursery!! I WILL be getting one of those. Again that dang blown budget, but this is here! I only have to wait a couple of weeks for that one, lol. My mom also said she has a pot…
Dave it is pure and utter torture looking at those flowers and NOT being able to get them RIGHT NOW!!! But you are right some of the ones I want are sold out so I am starting an iris fund, lol!!! Just like I have my amaryllis fund, my ginger fund, I…
Dave! Thanks for the link I am going to have to wait for a few more day till I can order anything hubby just blew my budget on a la-z-boy, lol! I will go look and torture myself, lol.
You know Dave I am not positive on that. But I have plants in my yard that are not "supposed" to do well here at all and they have done just fine. I have always loved iris but never have had the chance to get some.
Melody the first Pic I do believe is a Luna moth? not positive but I think that's it the second I have no idea but have seen those in the mountains of NC during my summers there.

Did you order any iris this spring? I have no room but I went ahead and ordered about a dozen more.
Gonna have to find someplace to put them but I just couldn't resist. LOL
you can throw that bad girl anywhere, she's good stock! from hawaii! is the blue/lavender flower for you picture? it is just beautiful!
i transferred the victorian/vintage red trumpet hummingbird vines sprouts, around a dbl shephard's hook----my mom put a little hummingbird feeder on one of the hooks......i'll take pix!
i'm going to picture a plant of unknown origin....sat on sidewalk for a week+ on the corner down the street.....11pm raid with me, my son, and mom.....and wheelbarrow. it has never bloomed, should it?. pulled it out of ground, under shade, and have so far split in 3. i throw water on it now and again. has loose soild on it with the desert rose that i have in 'intensive care' of the neighbors'!
hi my name is christina and i am leslie best friend and i am 10 years and i love panting like leslie does so i just panted a jade tree with jade leaves and your friend leslie says hi so bye...... bye
Sounds great! I'll keep an eye out for the pics of your new iris.
Seems as though you're finding was to get around that pesky budget issue LOL. The GIANT blue one sounds really neat.
I know, it's horrible isn't it? I could EASILY have ordered double the amount I did if it wasn't for my iron will LOL. Glad I could put you onto iris. I'll have to keep an eye out for your ongoing iris acquisitions in future photos.
Sorry to hear about your blown budget. You will have
to save some up now because I doubt that you won't be
able to find several that you will just HAVE to have.

Here is the iris link. Try not to go crazy like me. I placed an order a couple weeks ago and had to cut myself off when I got it up to a hundred dollars. I just kept seeing more and more I wanted. I'm just lucky so many of the ones that I wanted were sold out or the damage may have been greater LOL. Have fun with it and let me know if you end up getting any. Here goes.
