Homer my TRex has a tiny eye that is just starting to show. I hope you will have some luck also.
It is really going to set them back but at least they are not dead.

I really agree with Mike. My hostas with a good layer of much faired much better then the ones with little or no mulch.

Homer, what is the hosta in the great pic you posted?

That is really cool but could some of it be from frost or chemical damage?

sorry to hear, it is going to be a bad year for losses i think.

Same story here.

I also think my t-rex is toast - one eye pre-snow and now nothing - it was new last year. Still holding out some hope, just less and less everyday.

gph will only help if you know the total area it covers etc.

I would use a cheap rain gauge and run the system to see how long it takes to get 1/2" of water down.

if you look on the sprinklers you should be able to look them up on line to get all kinds of info.

shipping says $6.50 then in the text it says $6.95.

I would pass on this seller for sure.


there are some good sellers on ebay but I would ask (here) about the seller before bidding.

I think even Chris puts some plants up once and awhile.

cameo looks kind of dry. maybe it is just the picture but make sure you keep an eye on them. Some of the pots can dry out fast.

Guardian Angel is probably my favorite (I already voted) but I saw that only two other people voted for it.

I can't believe it is only on three peoples top ten?
