What are gloves?? I had a hard time durring my last pregnancy forcing myself to put on gloves while gardening. Next time (yes I did say next time) Im just going to get that test done, so maybe I can continue to garden the way nature intended, with your hands in the dirt!

You may be wondering what an "organic lawn" is. Well, don't let the name fool you, an organic lawn is in no way different from the lawn you have outside. What makes a lawn an organic lawn is how you maintain your lawn, specifically by using no artificial pesticides or fertilizers.

I’ve never seen one of these before–I wonder if it would work in a yard with granite. I have the same problem with gloves–never think I need them or don’t bother, then I’m sorry. Happy GTS,

We have one of those….after we moved to Arizona and the xeri-scape gardens with rock…they’re a necessity in tools! And as you say,—-great for weeds!!!

Acer palmatum 'Beni Otake' is akso known as the 'Big Red Bamboo' maple. It is a lovely thing, being a deep, glowing garnet red in spring, greenish red in summer, and fire engine red in fall. It is an upright, billowing tree which here will probably reach ten feet or so tall. I mention it because of its apparent vigor and hardiness. In general the 'Beni' Japanese maples seem to have a reputation for not being particularly hardy, but I have two Beni Otakes, and neither has lost so much as a twig in winter, and after a year to get their roots down, they grow a foot a year.
This is the single best Japanese maple in our garden in terms of hardiness, rapid growth, and attractiveness. The picture above was taken in deep dusk with a flash.
