Re: Let Mr. Spock Choose Your Plants

This is a good start but you still end up with a very large pile of plants that could "theoretically" work in any of the locations and it seems like only trial and error work past that point, if you are not a professional with a lot of experience with the plants in question, in the type of area in question.

Unfortunately, my neighborhood does not offer a lot of great examples and some of the plants that are doing well are so old, I would never be able to find the same variety commercially now.

So I guess I have sort of a semi-educated trial and error process going on...

Re: Video: How to Train a Rose on a Trellis

This is a great video! Question- if you tried to train a central cane up the trellis with horizontal canes coming out of it, would only the top ones bloom?
