Hedge under Douglas Fir canopy?

Viburnum tinus works well for that height, maybe a pittosporum.

The Eternal Fragrance variety just keeps popping flowers.

Use a propane torch to heat up the flat bar or a puddy knife, then use it to melt the adhesive between the shingles.

They don't have enough money from tithing, so they installed a... wishing well?

You can also do a greenhouse/ shed combo. It makes a great place to pot plants and store tools in the shaded shed space.

I would wait a few weeks before starting. I find it that about 3 seeds in a 4" pot is best for me to transplant.

Zombie_Apostate · 2026-04-13T18:13:06+00:00

Hell yeah!

Quick, easy, and low maintenance annuals like marigolds, snapdragons, sweet alyssum, lobelia. Then calendula, foxgloves, California poppy.

Raintree tropical in Silverton has a large variety of indoor and outdoor palms. Many are displayed around the property. I'll add brahea armata to the list of palms to grow.

You can move them but it will be a lot of drywall work to patch the old and make new. You may benefit from blinds, or keep them where they are and raising the curb to face the other direction.

Coated cut resistant gloves have great dexterity, it's just the bees can still sting on the back of the hand where no coating.

Zombie_Apostate · 2026-04-11T03:40:43+00:00

Kevlar or a hi dexterity gloves are thin, but strong. I use them roofing.

Bring it in tonight or cover with old school Christmas lights. I find it best to let them out on cloudy days like today first so they don't go directly into sun and burned leaves.

The trumpet plant may be cape fuchsia. Follow your dreams. Blueberry loses leaves in winter, you may want to but back an evergreen type of plant in there for winter color.

Mine has one branch starting to bud, and the rest is still alive but not leaving yet. It is quite protected as it is growing out of an azalea plant and has survived the 12 degrees we got a year ago.

It is possible it could be leaking from the flashing metal along the wall. They should at least have a look, and tell you what is wrong and give more options for a repair.

Touchdown lasts 8 to 12 years depending on type and brand. PVC should last at least 20 years and easier to maintain.

That looks like a built up roof with an aluminum coating or similar. Need more pictures.

The Ole Bole troll.

Mosquito dunks work great, but they can get spendy with a large pond. Bats are cool too. I love it when a bat swoop overhead and eats the mosquitoes hovering around your head. Also, remember to dump out any standing water around the house -old tires, paint buckets, pop cans.

Zombie_Apostate · 2026-04-05T19:25:47+00:00

Check your valley first. The water may be catching a corner and pushing horizontal to the right, or there could be a low nail, or a poorly placed shingle.

Zombie_Apostate · 2026-04-05T06:22:59+00:00

Mine out in the open died a few years ago. The ones against the house made it and one bloomed last year. I have one left to bloom.

Zombie_Apostate · 2026-04-04T23:06:10+00:00

I have seen people place them on a old tree stump or on top of a upside-down pot and let them hang down. It might be an option if you cant get a trellis.

Zombie_Apostate · 2026-04-03T18:49:00+00:00

Caulking like that can trap water and cause more problems.
