    I try to garden in NW Ok with a dry desert climate assisted by grasshoppers. I'll be needing some help if you don't mind.

    At the moment I have a question about the name of a shrub and as soon as I find the correct category, learn how to post pictures etc. I'll ask. thank you

    Welcome to the forum! You'll love it here--kind, smart, funny gardeners with talents in crafts, photography, cooking, etc.
    Grasshoppers are our bane. We have chickens, but our ladies are outnumbered by the 'hoppers. Maybe we'll all find a cure for the grasshopper invasion :D !

    Welcome to our forums Fairview. I'm sure we'll be able to help you out in IDing the shrub you need a name for. Until then do tell us a litle about yourself as we love to get to know our new members. :-D

    Hello and welcome from Texas. We have our share of grasshoppers here, too. Do let us know if and when you find a way to do away with them.
