Gardening: Gardening Table

I want a cheap gardening table to use to pot plants, wash veggies, ect. . It has to be able to be left outside in the yard because I do not have a shed. Any ideas?

Gardening: Weed?

I have this coming up all through my flowerbed. Can anyone tell me what it is? I can't find anything online that even looks remotely close. I live in the West Central part of Oklahoma if that means anything...

  • This is what it looked like when I first transplanted it. It's about 1 1/2 inches taller now and has more leaves on the top. But not much growth to the "trunk".

Gardening: Silver Maple Sapling.

I had a silver maple sapling come up in one of my flower baskets when I brought them inside last fall..It stayed alive in the basket all winter and even had 2 little leaves on it. This spring, I transplanted it in a 5 gallon bucket making sure to get all of the roots even the tap root. It's doing wonderful and now has at least 10 leaves on the top of the "knitting needle" sized stem (or should I say trunk?). It's definitely getting taller but I'm not seeing much growth in the ...»
circumference. Is there something I can do to help it along? I really don't want to lose it as it's an offspring of a very large Maple we recently had to cut down due to disease. Thank you for any advice you can give me.

  • New galvanized buckets can be "aged" by spraying them with bleach.
  • We used a purchased rod system, but I can't recommend it. It's best to use a metal conduit pipe.

Topsy Turvy Galvanized Bucket Planter

Do you love those whimsical topsy turvy planters as much as I do? Have you ever wondered how they are made? Here's one I made recently using galvanized buckets. You can find more details, including the plants that I used, by visiting our blog.

Gardening: Help

Can anyone tell me what kind of bush this is? It's about 6 ft. tall, gets these little pink flowers in the spring and orange/red berries in the fall. Leaves are smooth, kind of like lilac leaves. No thorns.
