Looking for the name of a white flowering bush, with a real spicy scent?

Saturday, October 31st, 2009

very pretty bush with tons of little white flowers, with a strong spicy scent…prunes and shapes to a very pretty bush, seemed very hardy since it faced the north…sometimes bloomed more than once…never knew what it was, but moved before I could find out what it was…

Japanese Maple leaves are showing but come out looking dry. Anyone experience this?

The tree is about 2 feet tall and new. Also how often should I water it and when should I plant it?

Thanks!

Can I Cover Up a Red Flower And Purple Clouds With a Larger Dark Red and Dark Green?

Saturday, October 31st, 2009

Ok,so I have a kinda dark red peony on my wrist and under it are darkish purple clouds. I want to cover it with a larger much darker red peony with dark green leaves covering the majority of the purple clouds. Do you think it would be pretty ok to cover up red with red? When I look at it I feel like it would be fine, and maybe more than one visit would help even more.

So?

so does anyone know of any horse treats that don’t have any of those stuff in it? Can you please give me a recipe if you do know of any? Thanks so much for I’ve been trying to look for recipes that have none of those stuff for my horse but can’t find any… and I think my pony is kind of sick of just carrots and apples…?
she does have allergy shots and we do everything possible to help her with her itches, but i just don’t want to feed her these for you never know…. wow it’s nice to know someone has a mare like this (and this isn’t even all of it.. just the grasses fungi food…)
She’s not loosing interest – I mean I only feed her one every so often. I just know she’d probably like getting other treats every once in awhile and I also like making them. I just don’t want her to get sick of them… how would you feel eating pretzels for the rest of your life?

Dying Japanese Maple Tree in San Francisco Bay Area?

Friday, October 30th, 2009

We’re renting a nice house with a 8′ tall Japanese Maple in the back yard. A couple months ago I noticed some of the inner branches were dying and it is spreading.

I think I know the cause. The owners have an automatic sprinkler system set up, and the ground around the tree is getting too much water. The sprinklers go off every other day for 5 minutes, but the ground never has a chance to dry out. No grass is in a 2 ft radius of the tree trunk, and it’s a flat muddy mess. Apparently it’s always been like this, but all of a sudden it’s dying. Also, there is no mulch.

I’ve tried aerating the ground and adding fertilizer, but it’s getting worse. Can someone please tell me what I can do to work around this problem and save the tree? I can’t move the sprinklers and I can’t just turn it off, because I can’t program it.

Thanks.
Thanks Toffy. It doesn’t have a rain button (that would make too much sense!) so I’m going to go online and look for a user manual for this Irritrol system. It’s all handled digitally. Thanks for all of your help!
Thanks bonsai guy, pics have been sent.

Why is Gordon Brown, British prime minister, and the BBC announcer wearing a red flower in their lapel?

Is it a special campaign in Great Britain, or a special day that is celebrated in England? Saw them both on BBC television news tonight.

Where does grass seed come from?

Friday, October 30th, 2009

I know that, obviously, grass seed comes from grass. But I was thinking the other day as I was sprinkling some on my poor back yard, I’ve never seen it in all my life outside of the store-bought stuff. So, my question to the world, is where is all this grass seed collected that we see in stores?
