The bugs are out en masse! I can still enjoy the evenings without fleeing from clouds of mosquitoes, and I haven’t yet seen any grasshoppers, but I’ve noticed that just about every other summertime insect and other creeper-crawler is out and about. One of my daughters has had three tick bites already this year.
Sod Webworms are Back
10 May 2012, 2:06 pm
Doesn’t it seem early for sod webworms? Yet they are feeding in my St. Augustine lawn. And just for a bonus there was an armyworm two. Look at my hand and you can see the small sod webworms and the larger armyworm. You know, I thought I saw lawn caterpillars a week or two ago and [...]

Larkwood – The best of both worlds this week for those who like to fish different methods. Glebe Lake is very clear with the fish just subsurface and close to the margins, so a stealthy approach is advisable.

28 April 2012, 1:39 pm
Kale and apple smoothie: yumm or yuck?Have you ever tried a kale smoothie? I hear people talking about green smoothies all the time, but I'd never tried one before this week. Frankly, they always looked and sounded gross to me. I mean come on, I don't think I want to drink pureed greens! Gross. Then a few weeks ago, during our regular Monday night "yoga" session (aka stretching and girl time ...

24 May 2012, 2:47 pm
It seems the red things are more insistent than last year–happier to be out and flourishing than their paler relatives–and some red things

Perennials: Creeping phlox - Examiner

But do NOT cut a creeping phlox clear to the ground. To propagate creeping phlox, you can divide it after blooming; take cuttings in fall that are
overwintered inside and planted out the following year; or, easiest and surest, layer the stems by burying ...

Joe Swift's Chelsea Flower Show Diary - radiotimes.com
20 May 2012, 4:36 am
Yes, you can get UK shrubs, but if they’ve
overwintered here, they tend to sulk a bit, and not be ready until July, which is too late (21 May is judging day at Chelsea). My timber frames are looking great. Their job is to divide the garden up ...

Opinion: Parasite Outlook Is Buggy - Yankton Daily Press
11 May 2012, 9:36 pm
But because this winter was milder than usual and this spring was nicer than usual, more worms will have
overwintered. So, in theory, those producers who thought they had a good start to worm control this spring by deworming in the fall don’t ...
