MamaBird Hi Dugsmom.......I planted my Sweet Broom in a really dry flowerbed. They all did really good the 1st couple of years, but the next season we had more rain and some died. I think, in 2006, I planted 6 plants and now have 2 left. They are large and Beautiful,...

Can any of you Gardeners tell me when I'm supposed to trim back my Sweet Broom plants. I bought them last Spring and they had beautiful bright yellow blooms on them. They are still growing, but not blooming, and just as green as...

MamaBird Hi Dugsmom......The ones I planted were planted in a very dry flower bed and did really well for the 1st 2 years. Then the next season we had more rain and I have lost all the plants except 2. They are still pretty. So, definitely don't plant them in a bed...

Ok, it's time to come clean. How many coats of mascara do you apply to your lashes? One, two, three? more? Do you find it necessary to apply so many coats or just like to? I usually apply only one coat for work, but will...

MamaBird O.K., I'll come clean. I use 0 coats. But, when I was younger, working all the time and lots of makeup was a good thing, I applied multiple coats. The trick to no clumping was to make sure I had new Mascara on hand. The older it got, the CLUMPIER! YUK!

Can you believe another rerun? Grrrr. I hate the way they give us 2 new shows then hit us for a rerun. Just show us the episodes you have filmed and then do reruns. We know there is a writer's strike and this is just plain out...

MamaBird Thanks for responding. I sure hope you can find some kind of relief, soon. I have found that mine is worse if I don't rest during the day. I've learned to lay down for at least 30 mins. a day. But, even that doesn't always work. Wish they could find a miracle...

MamaBird I agree.....as these babies are getting older, I'm not having near as much trouble. I think it was mainly because of the 4 being all together, in the same cage! In other words, let's see who can bite Mom's hand first to get fed. LOL

MamaBird Isn't that neat....my Mother passed in 1996, but I still have her little medicine bottle she kept in her purse, with 7 little black and white pearls she found in raw oysters. Needless to say, she ate raw oysters a LOT!!!

I bought some Canna bulbs, but I'm not quite sure when to plant them. I am in the Southern part of the USA. Can anyone help me out? Also, should I keep them in the refrigerator until I plant them?
