We had frigid temps & power outage in my area this week & I lost most of my starts in my greenhouse. Any suggestions for me for the future?

I went out to mine yesterday and found 99% humidity as well. I don't use a dehumidifier however noticed that my heater was not on. I live in the Northwest and the cloudy rainy days will cause the humidity to raise as it did if I don't have…

You can transplant roses anytime they are dormant. I've actually read that November is a great month to transplant them.

I think you spoke too soon. We only got one day of appropriate seasonal weather and today we're back into the rain, and 50's. At least the day of sun was on a Saturday so I could actually get in my garden.

We have a large pond and need to top it off about once a week in the summer. I figure it's the evaporation since it only happens with the sun and heat at that time of the year.

Pulled this up and reallized I made a comment over a year ago so thought I'd report on progress from my planting times last year. Of course we had one of the best years on record as far as heat goes! But is there a "normal" year…

I like the English roses with their beautiful full blooms. I happen to be looking for a tea rose at the moment though; Rachel? Anyone have this one?

I'm like you Susan. I like the peace and tranquility. The birds and squirrels are music enough for my ears while I'm in the garden.

May in the Great Pacific Northwest!

Posted on May 2, 2009 at 8:02pm 0 Comments

We're still having many showers but I do hope the cold nights are gone. I have a greenhouse and took my fuchsias out too early; consequently their leaves got burned with the cold weather; I'll have to remember that next year. (the great thing about gardening is there's always next year). However, my tomato starts are doing great! 1 foot high! Love that greenhouse!

Where did you purchase your ladybugs? I'd like to order more, but the lowest I can find right now is 4,000. Thanks Walt
