Comments (8)Thanks everyone. I anticipated the Oxalis would go dormant so I planted them among my spring bulbs and evergreen day lilies and agapanthus. Just like what chadinlg did. Outside I'm mainly growing Dwarf Citrus, Avocado, Pomegranate, Blueberries, Herbs, Day Lilies, Various Spring Bulbs (Tulips, Freessia, Amaryllis, Iris, Asiatics Lilies, Cannas, Blazing Stars and Gladioli), Sunflowers, Dahlias, African Iris, African Daisy, Rose of Sharon Hibiscus, Agapanthus, Oleanders, Wisteria and Oxalis. Note: It's my first year with all of these as they all went into the ground this past fall (Oxalis in January). Only the Agapanthus, Oleanders, Wisteria and African Iris were established plants....See MoreTetraclinis articulata and new website
Comments (6)Great to hear from you @raul_kender, thank you for your reply! Mine is in a pot. I got him at a nursery here last year. Do you prune them? If so, how? I haven't pruned mine at all yet. Should I? What about fertilizer? Are Tetraclinis heavy feeders? Do you know if they like companion plants in the pot or should they be alone? Current pot is 35 liters. Tetraclinis is 120cm high. Somehow an Oxalis ended up arriving in the pot too and I wonder if I should leave the oxalis in there or remove it. I am worried the oxalis will rob all the nutrients from the tree. Here is a picture. We get a lot of wind up here and I'm not sure he likes it. Or maybe it's not the wind and he's just lacking nutrients? I will look into those juniperus trees too! They look great! Thanks again, I appreciate any comments!...See MoreWeeds' control & weeds tell soil pH & soil types and missing nutrients
Comments (21)I have lemon balm and a few sites state that lemon balm tea works better than any sleeping pill. I agree, Lemon Balm tea is very delicious (10 times better than mint tea) and it calms and wipes away any worries plus makes me fall asleep immediately. However it gets invasive now since we have tons of rain this year. The plus is the roots are shallow, I can kill a big clump of Lemon Balm in less than 10 min. The hardest weed to kill is Canadian thistle, the roots are very deep, reaching down to sub-clay layer. Here's a excerpt from below link: "Weeds tells a story. Cockle Burr grows in the deficiency of the availability of the mineral silver. Bull Thistle grows in the deficiency of available zinc. Musk or Canada Thistles grow in the deficiency of available phosphorus, and Leafy Spurge grows in the deficiency of the available nickel. Every mineral has a job. Without the proper level of available Calcium, these other trace minerals will not be available to the plant. It is easy to react to symptoms (like weeds) instead of dealing with the problems causing the symptoms." https://www.ag-usa.net/Calcium%20-%20%20Is%20your%20soil%20trying%20to%20tell%20you%20something.htm From Straw: Shamrock (yellow Wood Sorrel) gets very invasive after 2 decades of high-rain. When I first moved here in 2001, the new topsoil was very alkaline at pH 8 and there's no shamrock. But as we get lots of rain, the top soil becomes more acidic and there's an explosion of Shamrock. As I dig holes for roses, I take the bottom soil (very alkaline at below 2 feet) and throw on top where I want to suppress the weeds. Yellow Wood Sorrel is indicative of high magnesium and low calcium, which corresponds to my soil test....See Moreseasiderooftop
