Re: Palin and environment
Yes,seriously.
Basically you have to look at the entire life cycle of the material from
cradle to grave and include environmental needs. I have not seen a
study on hemp but recall such a comparison of cotton versus polyester.
This was an old study which would need updating but overall superiority

The "never-ending" theorem was taught (taught still?) as part of the

Agapanthus without blooms
I moved to Northwest Arkansas three years ago and each spring have
observed the emergence of thick, spear-shaped leaves in a portion of
my new front yard. I have noticed this plant growing in other parts
of town as well. On a visit to Southern California this summer, I was
able to identify the plant as the leafy growth of agapanthus - which

Re: Brussell Sprouts with no Sprouts!
I have huge beautiful plants with little tiny nubs for sprouts. They did
this last year, and it wasn't until late October or November or so that they
actually grew. I ate b.sprouts all winter long. In February I was picking
big fat sprouts off of the plants, those that survived the snow and ice
(which was most of them).

I have been growing Jade Cross Brussell sprouts for years and have

anything different that I know of. What happened? Anybody else ever
have this problem?

Re: Palin and environment
I do not. Hemp is not to be compared with what you suggest doing. PA
farmers could grow and earn from hemp. New Holland would design better
equipment, more jobs and in 10 years of legalization it would help economy.
Or so they say. I do not support legalizing what you suggest. In fact I
would oppose it.

Re: Palin and environment
Legalize hemp for products.

Re: Asiatic Lily
Hypatia
Yes, true lilies are bulbs. And they are once a season bloomers.
If you have Sunset Garden Book 2001, seventh Edition, look at p. 433
and start with the 6th paragraph about care after blooming. The stems
will be turning brown and need to be cut back. When you do this, be
sure to mark the location so you don't dig them up by accident.
