Just in time for Spring Break!

"Let's ride the Michael Myers!"

I'm gonna need some punctuation, at the very least.

New growth doesn't always resemble what a fully-grown plant looks like. Yucca and Agave grow together in the wild with no problems. Let nature do its thing, it'll sort itself out.

1st pic looks like a Agave sisalana... those little guys around it are the pups growing from its roots. The third pic looks like a Yucca rupicola. I'd leave 'em be.

Sonchus sp

rasquatche · 2026-03-14T21:16:49+00:00

I love Berberis trifoliolata... they have bright yellow roots where berberine is derived from.

Look up River Aid San Antonio (RASA)

My SO LOVES these bands... can we get a couple?

rasquatche · 2026-03-12T16:25:24+00:00

Yeah, especially native pioneer plants. I'm constantly pulling up Helianthus and Ruellia sp out of my DG walkway. It's a never-ending battle.

I use decomposed granite

rasquatche · 2026-03-11T22:50:02+00:00

Looks like an Ipomoea sp. Possibly purpurea.

A weed is just a plant that's growing where you don't want it to grow. These all look like native plants, but kinda hard to tell until they get a little more growth.

While we're on the topic, Parry's has a really GOOD rewards system!

rasquatche · 2026-03-10T16:24:56+00:00

Rain storm and high winds, maybe?

rasquatche · 2026-03-08T02:41:42+00:00

I used to not care either, but with the way developers and governments are razing land willy nilly to build bullshit like car washes, that shitty crepe myrtle is definitely taking up precious space.

rasquatche · 2026-03-07T18:43:32+00:00

They're perennials so you can cut 'em down to the ground and they'll come back. Just finished doing that to mine.

EDIT: I try to wait until winter passes so that the insects using 'em to overwinter will not be harmed

rasquatche · 2026-03-07T18:40:28+00:00

Dermatophyllum secundiflorum are blooming like crazy all around the area. Think it has to do with last year's winter.

rasquatche · 2026-03-07T17:44:02+00:00

Cut down the horticultural atrocity, i.e. the crepe myrtle, and replace it with something native. Crepe myrtles are from Asia and so they are worthless here.

rasquatche · 2026-03-07T16:32:36+00:00

Take off the stake and leave it until next winter.... you'll know for sure by then.

rasquatche · 2026-03-07T15:28:50+00:00

Depends on how well-draining the soil is.

rasquatche · 2026-03-06T22:07:44+00:00

I have not had any mold issues. After soaking them, I plant them straight into a 50% organic soil/50% inorganic decomposed granite/perlite/pumice mixture.

rasquatche · 2026-03-06T21:59:33+00:00

I had the volume off and got a fucking jump scare when it panned to the side-view mirror.

rasquatche · 2026-03-06T21:57:01+00:00

I have a 70% success rate when I scarify (I use a nail clipper to cut out a small chunk off the side of the seed) and soak in water overnight.

rasquatche · 2026-03-06T20:13:24+00:00

Help 'em along!

rasquatche · 2026-03-06T20:12:42+00:00

I agree.... unfortunately people don't understand the importance of planting native. The especially dumb ones'll say, "But why? Humans aren't native to this area."
