Why are my pecans shriveled and rotting?
Comments (1)Mildew starts in spring some people say scab. Only control either one is with big fan sprayer. Air circulating around tree help if in earily morning. Tree health will help fertilizing with 10-10-10 4 pound per inch of diameter if got large tree as posted lets take 30 inch diameter tree times 4 = 120 lbs to that tree. Any tree having promblems as your need zinc sulfat. You can get zinc about any farm store in south Georgia. It will take 5 years bring trees out stavation one year want do anything to tree third year you will see turn around and start production 5th year max out. One thing should warn if these trees staved for long time all limbs be long and weak the fertlizing set heavier folage wind brake off. So good cutting limbs back to short length help tree come into production prunning always help pecan tree be stronger....See MorePecan tree for yard near home?
Comments (12)My answer is two fold. First, if you were to ask me before planting, I'd probably counsel against using a pecan (or hickory) near a home, or on a small lot. general litter and limbs dropping are the primary reasons. I'd also counsel against a Liriodendron, for the same reason(s). But then...if you really like a particular tree, go for it. There really aren't any "rules", much less laws (I have seen a few communities where you can't plant cottonwood or silver maple within a certain setback of the property line, but those have been rare instances). And if you want a particular type of tree, go for it. The world is a place of amazing and wondrous diversity, and I fully believe you should be able to embrace it. Sometimes we get a little too uptight over how far away from things trees are planted. You name the crazy idea that people could come up with, I've heard it, and for the most part, there's more to the story....See Morehow many lemongrass plants should I plant in a yard of 20 by 102 dete
Comments (5)Certainly! The number of lemongrass plants that can be grown in a yard of 20 by 102 feet can vary depending on different factors. For instance, the spacing and size of each plant at maturity will play a significant role in determining how many plants you can grow. If you decide to plant your lemongrass in rows with a spacing between plants of 2 to 3 feet and a distance of 4 to 5 feet between rows, you could potentially fit around 40 to 60 plants per row in a 20-foot wide yard. With a length of 102 feet, this means you could grow anywhere from 408 to 612 lemongrass plants in your yard. However, it's important to note that these are just general estimates. Actual planting densities may vary based on personal preference, growing conditions, and other factors such as weather patterns, soil quality, and sunlight exposure. Therefore, it's best to consult with a local gardening expert or conduct further research to determine the best planting density for your specific region and growing conditions....See MoreSOS to StillAnn - Containing the impact of RRD in my yard
Comments (54)Wow that is much more encouraging news than I'd suspected! Thank you so much for chiming in Ann and reassuring me on most of these roses! None of your messages were "dig this rose out immediately" so at least I get to stall for a while! I'm glad to hear some of these bizarre foliage symptoms can have causes other than RRD. We definitely had a sudden burst of extremely hot weather in early June after a cool wet May (like going from 60's to 90's for several weeks nonstop) so that could explain some of the odd growth patterns. The chlorosis isn't something I'd normally be that concerned about so if there's not any pattern of explanation for RRD, I'll let it ride. You are absolutely right that we never get rust around here except maybe in late fall, so I have no idea it could look any different than the "cheetos" dusting I've seen on photos. Again, it's a relief to have that foliage explained by something that around here at least is temporary. For Sweet Vivien, I'll let you know if she ever gets those particular canes longer than 6" and post some pictures. She's a short rose at best and is at present only 18" tall tops, so I can't tell what her canes would look like with 6" on them. For Darlow's Enigma, I could try to tell you what the sexual parts of his blooms look like, but I'm not sure I can identify the sexual parts of most mammals much less plants. I can try taking some more pictures of the suspect growth from a top angle and hopefully that will capture the parts in question. I'll definitely keep my eyes out for rogue RRD sprigs from roots nearby. One of my neighbors had a tiny sprig from the ground that looks like RRD, so I'll go dig that out for her. The tenacious roots of Dr. Huey make it not surprising that other rose growth could be lasting beyond the original bush. Rifls, I'm glad that Garden Delight is doing so well for you! I love that rose bush, and mine is particularly robust being from Palatine. Mine is incredibly hardy and makes a good pair with Firebird Citiscape. JC_7a_MiddleTN I am grateful that you posted with an indication that those hyperthorny canes might be normal for Inspiration!! It might make the equally hyperthorny menace of Cape Diamond less troublesome too since both are canes that don't have a finger's distance of space without lethal thorns on them. If they're potentially OK I'll leave them be until I see more signs of trouble. I'll probably post a few more pictures of roses that worry me, but I'm grateful that the odd signs I've seen so far aren't things to immediately worry about yet. I'll also post some photos of Typhoid Robin from last fall to demonstrate that I can indeed identify RRD when it's obvious :(. Thanks so much for your input! This was a lovely birthday present of good news Cynthia...See Moreken_adrian Adrian MI cold Z5
