  • The blooms are smaller and pale compared to last year.  Also, I have had it at least 4 years and would think it should be bigger.

Poor blooms on Nellie Moser clematis

My Nellie Moser clematis, the kind with the pink and white stripes, did not bloom well this year. The flowers were smaller, color washed out, and didn't last long at all. It did well last year but still isn't a very big plant for as long as I have had it. I have it growing behind a fairly large azalea, to shade the roots, but I am wondering if the azalea is too big, and blocking too much sun from the plant. Could this be the problem or are there other reasons for a clematis to not do well?

    close to the house and with the azalea it may not get enough that way either. Once in a while I water it directly under the azalea, at the base of the clematis. Maybe I will try at least 2x a week.

  • Our coral bells. Is it fungus?

Fungus on our coral bells?

Can someone enlighten us regarding what this may be? It looks like fertilizer burn but we did not fertilize. Is it a fungus?

Landscape Project!

We re,moved most of what was left of our Asian Jasmine after our drought had destroyed most of it. We then cleared and leveled and brought in river rock.

How to attract hummingbirds

I had such a wonderful response to an earlier question that I decided to ask another. What plants/bushes native to Florida's gulf coast will attract hummingbirds? Simply hanging feeders hasn't proven successful.

  • We took some of our previously dried assorted peppers and crushed them up in a bag. Jalapeño, cayenne and other peppers.
  • After crushing up the peppers, dump them into a boiling pot of water.
  • After boiling the crushed up peppers for maybe 15-20 minutes, pour the solution into a bowl and strain out the crushed peppers. We used a paper towel because it was handy. Put it over the bowl and pour slowly.
