I am trying to figure out the name of a plant I have seen recently. It is a bright orange ornamental grass. I think it may be Phormium 'Jester' but not quite sure. Could this be right? I know there are many other species and cultivars. It seems to be a very popular plant.
Hi Gerry, I have 3 or 4 beech trees that were attacked by rabbits but luckily enough i saved them.17My question is:The Beech trees are only about a foot high. Last year I cut the tops to generate growth but think I may have done more good than bad. This year they are showing signs they are still alive. I heard that if you cut the tops they stop growing. Is this true as I cut the tops of mine when they were only a foot high? Martin.
When is the best time to cut back plants such as roses lavender etc. to cut the dead branches
what organic fertilizer can you use to(a) increase potassium levels(b) increase phosphorus levels(c) increase nitrogen levelsApart from using farmyard manure of course!
My questions are :Is it okay to use dead grass cuttings as a fertilizer on raised beds in my vegetable garden? Would leaving your grass cuttings on the lawn aid fertilization of the ground?
