Ours is dead where Bailey goes luckily she is still weeing on the grass seed in the same spot so if it grows at all it is hardy

One spot, you are lucky, Rebecca is like a few of your harem, she likes to spread it all over.

Speaking of plants, does anyone else have a citrus tree?? I found loads of sort of (cross between caterpillars and earwigs) animals with a cotton wool sort of mess around them and what looked like babies on my tree yeaterday. Had to don the gloves and go squishing, but I gather now, that is what has been hurting my poor tree.

Mealy Bug/Mealy aphid?. I have apple trees that are plagued by it, especially a crab apple . Can't get rid of it despite winter washes, soap etc. If the infestation is small then meths on a cotton bud will kill them...dehyrates them. The fluffy stuff is their protection.

Edit Woolly aphid?

I have a miniature lemon tree. Nothing gross has ever grown on it :eek: I put it in the porch in summer and it smells wonderful.

What did you squish ? moths? butterflies? some pest I don't know about?

I dont know what they were, I really should have taken a pic. They were just as described, sort of looked like a cross between an earwig and a caterpillar. urrrgggg!!! My baby trees are okay, but my daddy has been living in the dinning room over winter, cant wait to get him back outside so the birds or wasps can do their stuff. [/QUOTE]

Do you not grow your flowers from seed then?

yes I grow lots from seed. But Im a sucker for a dying plant that I can save. I always end up with way more plants than I need. I find a place for them all
