Just pick a good spot, tamp the earth real hard, draw the shape and dig out the dirt. Pour quickcrete and you are done!

Thank you Sabine. You've cheered me up when I needed it.
Yes! He's another person I've been missing... I wish him a wonderful birthday.

The trick is that if you give them enough water for their needs and the odd food now and then and just leave them alone to do their own thing, then they will grow. ?

But that is the beauty of this place. We are family and will always be welcomed back with open arms.

I did make it home before dark yesterday and there are lots of mistletoe clusters WAY up in the tops of the trees. I found one branch the squirrels had threw down but I don’t see any berries. I think there is 1 cluster I may can reach with the pole saw... it’s iffy though.. I wonder why it only grows so high up? I’ll get a better assessment this weekend;-)

Sabine you are the one that crossed your fingers when Opo was lost. I will always give you the credit for Opo's return.
Thanks! High up ‘ cause thats probably where the birds or squirrels rubbed the seeds on branches they were roosting in. Mistletoe starts off growing “under it’s own” power & photosynthetic process is involved so they need bright light. Theres more available light at the top of trees than way down low. Later, they attach their roots directly into their host (the tree) and the light isnt that important for photosynthesis.
Yeah....my ornamental multi-flowering fancy sunflower seeds arrived yesterday! All set for so e wonderful sunflowers later this season...

Hi all...I have never come here to see what was going on since this room opened because of 'cheese'. How ever I decided to pop in and see what all the ruckus is about.....and have laughed a lot. There's funny, weird stuff being said...I love it!
Welcome, Maggie. You're gonna fit right in.
Not sure exactly how to take it...but thanks...
Rain, rain, rain & more rain. Today is our 21st consecutive day ABOVE “normal” temperatures! The next two are predicted to be “cooler” but then warmish again.
We popped over to IKEA yesterday that is situated near the DC border and near the National Agricultural Library - there were many many many Spring flowering trees in bloom! Unheard of for mid-February. It’s almost Florida balmy here these days.

It's like FB without politics and other crap going on in this world. We are all tortoise owners supporting each other and with a positive attitude. ?Not sure exactly how to take it...but thanks...
Lots of nothing & everything all at the same time! Brew some mulch tea, grab a carrot & join in!
Has anyone told you about the initiation process yet?
