Droopy, I'm not letting them get to the 'stalk'-stage, I pull them up when they're still tiny. This leaves the tubers in the ground & means that I...
AAnightowl, I just looked up Missouri wildflowers. There is a yellow flower called Potentilla Recta that appears to resemble the one in your...
Thanks for your reply, Droopy. Unfortunately, digging them up is no option, as they always pop up right under my established plants at a...
Now don't get me wrong, I'm very happy with my little house and my tiny little garden. So what's the problem? Well, one of the previous...
OOOh no, how awful! I, like my fellow gardeners here, have had similar experiences. Especially my strawberries. Last year I managed to save...
Thank you all for you kind words, so heart-warming!:smt049 Philip, I often think just that. I wouldn't have liked to see her get old and...
Hey, AAnightowl, I think I've just cracked it! There is such a thing as a Buttercup Primrose. I came across it when I combined the two on...
Yup, those thingies are what we call buttercups here too. At least we are talking about the same thing :) Chocolate, does the photo on...
You guys, I'm still laughing (just wiping tears away now), some of your replies were just too recognisable! :smt081 Cherylad and Toni: your...
Marlingardener, your calico Feliz is beautiful. She's lucky she found you, looks like she really enjoys being with you! I really would like...
AAnightowl, Have you compared your yellow flowers to pics of Primula Vulgaris on Google? Sorry I can't be of more help, but your...
At my previous address, I had a little tabby cat come to visit me every day. She belonged to people who lived around the corner. Each...
Thanks for the link, Jerry, really fascinating! I myself am a firm believer in the fact that plants are very complex and clever little (in some...
Hi AAnightowl, Do you have a picture of the foliage and/or seedpods? I'm thinking something like a type of primula, especially since you...
Cherylad, I know just what you mean! Here in Holland, and especially where I live, it's exceptionally dry this year. :shock: Every tiny drop...
Judy, I root my cuttings in water (a.k.a. "the lazy way" :lol:), and always take off all the leaves. If I don't, they tend die off anyway...
First I thought of Gardengnome, but no, gnomes are not really my thing. Somehow I then came up with Gardenelf. I've always been fascinated by...
Bit of a long story, but here it goes: Although my name suggests otherwise (English first and surname), I was born and raised here in The...
Ooooh, these little ones are just too cute, can't wait to see more pics!:stew1:
Frank, I don't think the plant-db needs to be changed. I've already deleted the image, but the rest can stay as it is. Hopefully there are members...
