How much sunshine for a variety of flowers?
Comments (6)sun is sun ... shade ..... is sooo hard to define ... bright shade.. dark shade ... etc .. that makes your question very hard to answer ... but the bottom line is that nothing will really die ... it just wont perform to expectation ... just plant what you want.. and move them next year.. if you are not happy with how they perform .... though perennials do take a year just to really get going ... planting in very bright shade ..... is a great way for a newbie to start.. because it makes controlling water and other variables so much easier than full blistering hot sun ... it always just comes down to planting the darn things.. and we will worry about it later ... and NEVER presume.. the first placement is its last placement. .. any true perennial gardener.. most likely moves every plant a couple times.. before they are happy with it all.. do NOT think of your garden as static ... the old saying is that you arent a green thumb until you killed every plant 3 times.. maybe we should also add.. moving them 3 times.. lol ... good luck ken...See MoreReason why a hosta doesn't flower?
Comments (5)Hi Ken, I think the point you missed was that there are other hosta's flurishing. FGT isn't suffering other than no flowers. Other hosta's under that tree are Thunderbolt (flowerd) 3 Francis Williams, Golden Prayer and Eye Declare. All flowering and ready to eat my house. Most of those hostas have been there over many years. The roots could be a problem but there are others there and an extensive perennial garden on both sides. This little stinker just doesn't want to flower. I only fertilize my grass 2X a year and my perennial garden gets compost. So maybe some year it will surprise me. As for the large maples the only one we have near us is on the parkway in front of the house. Sucks the life out of everything. I have some perennials in the front and annuals and every year I have to dig out a garbage can of roots before I can plant the annuals. What a thug of a tree....See Morefiance's X wife comes to hospital, funeral home, family dinners
Comments (12)Lucy, Sylvia is exactly right..FDHs son is probably embarrassed, and angry if he was disiplined for what he did with the fist raising, but what are your expectations when you marry, FSS has to visit his dad at grandmas ? He will have to come to your home eventually, FDH needs to mend these fences between you and your sons and his son, not run off to grandmas...Also does FDH want Ex at the family functions? Why doesnt he tell her, stopping in is OK, but dont wear out your welcome, this is MY family, not yours... I have stopped at Exs family wakes usually before the home opens, to drop a card and sign the book, that way they know I cared enough to come, but didnt stick around to cause drama...I have had major problems with DH s ex coming to funerals, geez, I thought she d outlast the grieving spouse, as far as her staying power. DH and I just ignore her. But as far as sons needing support, DH was in the hospital, FSDIL asked if I called Ex to come, I was incredulous!!!!DH didnt want her there, but she was more than welcome to sit in the parking lot and give them hugs every half hour or so, if she chose to...Good luck with thse beauties, I feel your pain.......See MoreVirtual Funeral
Comments (29)Lkgrace, I'm so sorry. A fellow I graduated high school with, died a few days ago. Cancer, not covid. They made a video memorial for him, but not sure when they will have his service. I have only lived in very small towns...most of them rural. Funerals where everyone who knew the deceased shows up. If at a church, versus the funeral home, the ladies of the church prepare a meal in the fellowship hall, for the family and anyone who wants to attend. It is still common for people to bring food to the home of the deceased. I want to be cremated, versus buried. I don't want a funeral or memorial of any kind, but I think the way things are done in the small towns are very nice, and tho those things may eventually change, I don't think it will be any time soon....See Moreheydeborah
