Flower Garden Planting & Maintenance

tri_valley_bear asked:


…your state or country’s health agency and water resource agency were to certify the water safe and if there was no odor to the water?

Most people in the United states don’t realize just how little “new water” is actually available. Also they do not realize the cost of the water. If we had to pay what the water really cost to produce many people would not be able to afford it.

There are a dozen planter boxes on a corner in my neighborhood that have nothing in them but dry dirt.
The planters belong to the city of Los Angeles, CA.
How can I get permission to plant flowers in them?
I could go on a what is called a “gorrilla gardening,” campaign, but watering these planters is problematic, and there is already a sprinkler system at the site, but it is locked.
Please advise.

juicyfruit’s mom asked:


At what temperature should I bring my petunias in? I have several hanging baskets and it still gets chilly here at night and was thinking when it falls below a certain temp, I should bring them in, but not sure what that temp is. Please help me save my flowers!

alliphant asked:


This is the first time that I’ve ever had my own house to decorate, and I’m really excited to plant flowers/garden, etc. However, my backyard is really small. Any ideas of how I can have pretty flowers in my backyard but still have enough room to have people over for a barbecue?

Chatti-Patti asked:


I would like to plant flowers in a wire deck planter that is about 32″ long, 5″ wide and about 4″ high. I usually place several small pots in it, but I would rather plant directly in the planter. Any suggestions? Thanks for any help

There is a picket fence around the garden but the dog are small enough to fit through it. What will repel them? Mothballs don’t work.
