    Winter time is here.

    Ok last night was a cold 26F out of nowhere. This morning after dropping my son off at school, I looked at my trees a lot had frost on the leaves and soil was rock hard.

    how to tell the difference betwen a douglas fir and hemlock?

    I have an older tree that I thought was a Doug fir. But now I'm second guessing myself. I thought only hemlocks had the white stamens on the underside of the needles. But Doug firs have them also. So how can I identify a bunch of these seedlings and what I thought to be a Doug fir?

    mugo pine propagation from cuttings.

    I know the first thing you think would be impossible right. I'm not talking about a germinated seed cutting. I didn't think it was possible but I typed in mugo propagation in google and all that kept showing was a PDF. Written in 1968 which is the only proof of mugo propagation. I was planning...

    Slate Slabs.

    I want to put some boxwood and cotoneaster on a slate slab. Now, does the slab need drainage holes? Or can it go without? The pieces of slate I want to use are 24"x14" I'm sure most of you know how brittle this piece of earth is.
