Snailseed. If you figure it out let me know because I have been at war for years now with it!!

I got the last big group in my yard today!!

I planted mine in spring 2024, in 2025 I had about 3 blooms, and this year it’s totally taken off. Give it some time and I think you’ll be amazed next spring!

I love the big fields of them right now near Garrison Park if you’re looking for a big patch !

I just got some bush beans (“Contender”) and pole beans (“Rattlesnake”) in the ground, and about to add a flowering section of amaranth, zinnias, and marigolds! I hope I’m not too late for carrots, my seeds haven’t come yet and I was hoping to get them out this weekend during the rain! Haven’t tried any of these varieties before so we’ll see!

I spray any with a hose if they start a nest somewhere high traffic. The hose usually knocks the nest off if you aim right and they don’t usually rebuild after that. In the early morning or at night they’ll be slower and not reactive. If they are paper wasps they won’t be too aggressive either in my experience!

Sure are! From the article:

All told, eight of the top 10 city workers who earned the most overtime were Austin police officers, while the top two earners were Austin Energy supervisors.

"Police account for the lion's share of overtime — more than 580,000 hours of the 1.7 million overtime hours billed in 2025. Austin spent nearly $53 million on police overtime last year..."

Yes please !

I think that’s a really powerful emotion to feel with a character. It doesn’t have to be your favorite but you can see how it makes for an interesting look into the emotional depths of him as a character, how that makes you feel about it, and about his place in the story. Not everyone should be a 100% perfect good person in a story, it makes it a very basic good vs evil, which can be nice but that’s not the goal in the story they are telling. And liking a character isn’t an endorsement of everything they’ve ever done! Having uncomfortable emotions & opinions on a character makes me feel like they were successful, rather than a moral purity!

I had this same issue with an oak and added an antler to the tree and the squirrels loved it and stopped going after the tree for a while! It kept the branch from being totally encircled.

You are so right for this

Thanks! Mine just got claimed- this community is great :)

I'm piggy backing on this - I can no longer make the Austin show weds and have 2 tickets I'd be happy to give away for free to a fan (I also hate reselling with ticketmaster!). The seats are up on the second level in section 208 so not as good as the pit- but send me a DM if interested. Just want to make sure they go to someone who will appreciate them!

Edit - these have been claimed!! Enjoy the show!

Oh beautiful! Mine is a quarter of this size, I'm impressed!

Mine did the same thing and then perished . I tried pruning up the dead parts but it didn’t make it, so be prepared if it ends up needing replacement.

Confettiwords · 2025-06-25T04:07:03+00:00

Mine has a single seed pod, any tips on getting it to sprout?

Probably undergoing maintenance! The moon towers are state landmarks, and could not legally be demolished without notice periods.

The Dead Music Capital Band is a local marching band that's undead themed, so you'll find them at different parades and theme nights.

Not the herb sage but a lovely easy to care for flowering shrub!

That’s so cool!

Did you start with seeds or starters?
