I finished cleaning gingko seeds today. Collected them about a week ago. For cold stratification, I keep seeing to put them in fridge for three months, but since it’s nearly December and temperatures are finally below freezing, I was wondering if I can just plant them in pots outside? (surrounded with leaf mulch)
A cool pine tree I saw on a walk
I am house hunting and had this random thought while seeing homes listed with "blank canvas" yards. I've lurked here long enough to know that proper tree planting high with respect to the root flair is important, and to avoid burying it with a mulch volcano. But the thought struck me that in some of these yards with poor looking baren soil, is it a thing to plant a tree a little high in anticipation of slowly mulching around it to the proper height while also slowly cultivating the soil?
I am an avid worm composter and regular composter and dream of building my own little "soil factory" of sorts to slowly rehab one of these blank canvases.
Yes I know it's kind of a silly idea. I could/should just get some proper soil up front. But the idea intrigued me so here I am. Any thoughts welcome.
I sent a request in to my local council 2 months ago and haven't heard back. I chased them up a few times with no reply.
I know councils are super underfunded but just wondering if anyone else has tried to get a TPO before.
Spotted today on our magnolia tree
We have two of these on our new property but they’ve been neglected. What is it and how can I care for it? Location: SE Iowa
I have quite a few vine maples planted for a restoration. Some of them I realized are way too deep. Yesterday I tried to find the root flare and was digging 6-8” for a 3’ sapling. Is there a best practice for unburying? It’s on a slope so I feel like I’ll need to dig the whole tree with root structure out and elevate it. If so is there a time of year that’s best to do this? They just lost all their leaves.
