Random Facts About You!.....# 52

Hardly got any rain here either... I watched that storm go by. Heard it too, but it didn't hit here.

 

I've had something like feels like Sciatica for several days...this is no damn fun.

 

Sciatica is definitely not fun. Mine pretty much went away after my hip replacement.

 

id do anything to get rid the sharp pain in the shoulder blade. but instead think Ill go out make it worse with some axe play.. stupid mulberry trees got to go. they make nice shade and canopy but time to retake some yard area back...

 

Just got done planting a Red Cutleaf Japanese Maple out front.... Part of that patio deal. Gonna run out of mulch though.


Working on that instead of moving stuff around inside the house like I was supposed to.

 

I get some relief from Hubby's oxy and gabapentin.

I've got a load of kitty towels to wash and a gillion things to pick up.

 

they have that maple tree at aldies for 10bucks I think , I was going to get one but I havent.. maybe plant shopping this weekend.

 

I love those trees! Beautiful. What was the recommended sun exposure? If my memory serves me correctly, I think it should be at least partial shade and definitely not direct sun light all day long.

Coincidently, I am off to pick up a Cypress tree as soon as I finish this cup of coffee.

 

Buyer beware. Sometimes those $10 burlap specials are so cheap because they are the wrong graft and will likely never grow correctly. I bought two of them a number of years ago. I just removed one a few weeks ago because I couldn't correct it...no matter what I did. The other one is a little better so I'm giving it a little more time. But sometimes they're ok.

 

ive never paid for trees

when i want one i just go in the bush and dig one out to transplant


some of the pincherry ones i planted about 10 years need to be cut down they got some kind of disease and dont look well

 

Im thinking about actually making a tree line of Locuts Robinia pseudoacacia, only because thats most the trees here, they seem to grow quick and take easy. we'll see .. Im in no hurry.

 

Morning sun, partial shade tree... Does not like afternoon sun and heat. If it doesn't get enough sun it doesn't go full red. They are very picky.

The spot I planted it was where it did best last year in a pot... I tried a few locations.



Potted up a few varieties of Oak today for transplanting later... Gotta dig up some maples and do the same thing soon-ish. Not today though.

 

home...had to bail on the tree job on account I spotted a phone line I couldn't deal with.....renting a 40 foot lift instead....back next week

now....I have a small shirt job for daughters samba troupe...they were hired to play the opening of the pan am pathway in Toronto ....some path to the pan American game site

 

not sure i/ want to go to sleep cause Im tired,, or cause its nice and cool outside. its amazing on the side porch right now, but I feel like Im falling asleep out here..

 

this is what an intruder will see coming at him at my house

 

Julie wont mind if you come inside her yard. she likes to play....

Predator home?

 

The neighbors down the street planted some kind of red japanese maple right out in the blazing sun and it does great.

 

im surprised the construcatards didnt kill this one japan maple on the corner.. its been there for some time. place that was once a bar tried to landscape their parking lot. Its such a pretty tree, but stunted cause its planted in this retaining wall kinda thing.. bonsai..
