  • I am just not into decoupage. I like colour and lots of it. Hmmm.... what to do?
  • I started by painting the teapot green. Then I added some purple stripes to jazz it up.
  • A small mason jar became the vase that fit inside just perfectly. Love the flower spout, don't you?

From Trash to Treasure, Remaking a Teapot

I love transforming thrift shop finds to something useful for the garden or home. I bought this teapot for 50 cents, how could I lose?

Use Your Old Coffee Grounds in the Garden.

Are you a big coffee drinker? If you are, you will have used coffee grounds. Don't throw them away...used them in the garden.

There are many ways to use them. Camellias, hydrangeas, and roses are all nitrogen loving plants so the coffee grounds help.

The grounds are also a great deterrent for slugs and snails around hostas and other plants that the pests love.

  • Yellowing leaves – like you can see at the bottom of this potted plant, can be a sign of too much water. Potted plants can show this symptom quickly.
  • This pepper plant has tons of deep green foliage, but no blooms or peppers – a classic case of too much fertilizer
  • The Swiss-cheese look of a plant – the classic sign of slugs

Gardenia or Camellia

Which is it ?? Live in zone 8 and it gets maybe 2 hours of sun in the morning, shade the rest of the day. I just fertilized it 2 days ago and put some straw around it.

  • Rock garden at Darts Hill, Surrey BC.I love this look using alpine plants and hoped to have our rock garden wall look similar.
  • Checking out other rock gardens gave us ideas on what we wanted in our new rock garden. Here scree is used in this garden.
  • The first layer of rock was dug down and placed at least halfway into the ground for stability. Once the first layer was complete, the next was layer was carefully placed on top in brick fashion. Carefully select your rocks as you go.

I was given this plant a few days ago, but was not told what type it was, aside from it being an indoor plant. When I received the plant, the leaves were almost black with bugs and the starting to turn a yellow color. I washed the leaves last night which seemed to help it a bit, but the leaves are still turning yellow. The plant was bone dry, so I watered it a bit and put it in a sunny location, but not direct sun light. There are also little bulbs that are there, but the gal that gave ...»

    Looks kind of like a type of Anthurium to me! I would repot it, loosening the roots.
