Gardening: What is this??

It is growing beside the road, at my neighbors house. It is growing up into a tree. I think its kind of pretty .. but would like to know what it is first, before I go poking around in it.

Gardening: What is this? Is it a weed or a type of spinach

I found this growing in my carrot bed this spring, I let it grow but I still haven't figured out what it is. I shared my vegetable garden with my neighbor last season and I know he planted something late last summer. The simple resolution would be to ask him but he moved. Anyone with suggestions would be much appreciated,

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...

At first I was worried that it was Hog Weed, but after looking at photos on line I'm not sure.

  • Easily age your terra cotta pots resulting in a beautiful aged patina.
  • Grab whatever paint you have on hand, think creamy antique colors, a sponge and wax.  The wax will protect it from moisture and make the pots more durable.
  • Mix the paint with a good amount of wax till smooth.
  • Take a sponge and apply the paint mixture onto the terra-cotta pot leaving certain areas of the pot lightly exposed.
  • That's it, I swear, took about 2 minutes per pot.

Gardening: Vinca having a bad year??

I have planted Vinca for years in my sunny spots and it has always done well. This year I have replaced it for the 3rd time and now I'm giving up. Anyone know of a disease Vinca has this year?
