While it probably won’t hurt a thing so long as you spray
during the dormant season, and while temperatures are below
70 degrees, it probably isn’t necessary. Some insects, such as
the various scales and phylloxera gall on pecans are best
controlled by dormant oils. But most plants are not troubled by
insects that dormant oils will control. Again, that old advice:
know the plant, know the insect, and read the label.

It’s a simple trick. As soon as the terminal (tip) bud begins
to develop, allow it and only it to remain. Pinch off all side
buds as they develop, so the food and moisture can go straight
to the survivor.
A cabinetmaker could tell you better than I, particularly if he
could take a look at the tree. I’d be surprised, though, if the
tree were sound enough for good grade lumber. Otherwise it
probably wouldn’t have fallen.
This is a good time to get yourquestionsanswered by old Doc
Gard’ner. Drop a card to “Ask Doc Gard’ner”, care of Neil
Sperry, County Extension Horticulturist, Room 602 Records

Like many other ornamental and fruit plants, most crape
myrtles don’t “come true" from seed. In other words, the
offspring may or may not look like the parent plant. You have
no way of knowing.
DEAR DOC: Are the seeds on our crape myrtle any good?
Should I plant them?
Your first obligation to all around you is to establish a
vigorous turf. Since that expense need not be too great, you’ll
probably also want to start your permanent shade trees and
major landscape shrubs the first year. In both cases, you’ll
probably find it most economical to buy medium-sized
plants—not so small they get lost in the landscape, and not so
large they bankrupt your pocketbook. The second year you
could work to complete your public area (front yard )
landscape. The third year you could work to develop the side
and back landscapes, and the fourth year could develop color
beds, permanent edgings, and accessories in your landscape.
Congratulations on realizing that landscapes are a good and
continuing investment. Good luck!

Sunlight is made up of light of all wavelengths, or colors, as
you’ve probably seen through a prism. Green plants use light
that is predominately red and blue for normal growth and don’t
use the green wavelengths efficiently. A gray or amber
skylight would be best to allow the essential colors (blue and
red) through, providing shading in the green wavelengths.

The past ten years have seen the introduction of many
small -growing landscape shrubs suitable for just your situation.
Dwarf yaupon, burford, and Chinese hollies will fit beautifully,
as would boxwood, Indian hawthorne, and dwarf junipers.
Three less common plants worth looking for are dwarf abelia,
dwarf pittosporum, and dwarf crape myrtle. All should be
most successful.
