plant another seed? Thanks
Passion Flower: I have one growing in a pot....next spring will it grow again from the root or do I need to?
If you are in a northern growing zone, you will have to bring your passion vine inside for the winter. Leave it in the pot. Give it sun but avoid placing it directly in a window with southern exposure. Treat it as a houseplant for the winter.
Reply:Passifloras are evergreen. You shouldn't have any problems. You don't say where you are. But if it snows where you are it might need protection. I am in SoCal and ours just take over.
Good luck :-)
Reply:I have tweleve different types of Passion Flower outta the 300. Which state do you live in? If it snows I would place it inside. If it does not snow can you plant it in the ground? They're roots would rather be free.
I live in California and all I have to do is prune it back... and by next spring there it is...
Reply:Passiflora (Passion flower) There are over 400 species of this evergreen to semi-evergreen plant.They are considered very frost hardy to to frost tender depending on species.the only ones frost-hardy north to zone-8 are Passiflora caerulea (Blue passion flower) and Passiflora mollissima (Banana passion flower).Propagate from seed in spring, or from cuttings or layering in summer. They are susceptible to nematodes.performing arts

What should i put in the vase of flower?
to let them stay fresh for a long period of time?
i love flowers but they will not stay fresh in my house more than 2 days and i know that in the floweriest store they last for over two weeks
What should i put in the vase of flower?
Some books advise adding a ground up aspirin tablet to warm water (to eliminate bacteria), or a half teaspoon of sugar plus the ground up aspirin.
I've tried both methods, and the sugar + aspirin work very well. However, it all depends on how you prepare the flowers before you put them in the water. Cut the stems about 1" from the end to expose fresh absorbing surface. Roses must be cut underwater so air doesn't get into the stems. Keep the vase in a cool location if possible. Heat and sunlight reduce the life of cut flowers dramatically.
A lot depends on the kind of flowers and how long they were at the florists before you bought them. I've had Sam's Club/Costco roses last two weeks, astromelia,cut chrysanthemums, and fresh flowers from the farmer's market for a month. Some kinds of flowers won't last a week, no matter what you do.
Reply:I believe you supposed to re-cut the stems like 1 inch then put in the vase with a certain temp. water, not to cold, not to hot.
I heard baby aspirin crushed up in the water might help.
Then I heard of these packets the florist sells that you add into te water. Ask about that.

Reply:Many people have luck with tradescantia. I never have that plant when I am trying to do pollen tube germination in my classes. I always collect pollen from every flower I can get my hands on and try them all. You can combine them in a single test or use them separately. Go outside and start collecting. You could also go to a florist and ask if you can collect some pollen. Or a greenhouse. I've always gotten plenty of pollen just outside in my yard.

Has anyone ever used one of those "Instant flower garden" rolls?
They have some on QVC for a good price. I would like to get a roll to put out in front of my house but I want to know if anyone has ever used them and were they successful? I am terrible at planting flowers so I thought this would be a good thing for me to get. Do they work? Please, if you have used these, let me know how you liked them. Thank you!!
Has anyone ever used one of those "Instant flower garden" rolls?
I've done two (at different points in my life). They are almost worthless. Very few seeds germinated, and the ones that did germinate did not last long as they were not for my zone.
Also, there is very little time saved: you still have to prepare the bed.
You are better off to prepare the bed, then choose the EXACT plants you want (rather than rely on what some manufacturer predetermined would be nice in a roll).
Reply:Tried it and nothing grew.
Reply:I used it and nothing grew.
Reply:I have not but my parents have and they work wonderful.
Reply:They don't work. It is better to plant already started flowers or spread seed on the soil and place Miracle Gro outdoor garden soil on top (not to much though, only enough to bury the seeds).
Reply:those things are junky. just go get some plants at lowes or walmart. i just got some the other day, they were three inches tall and like $0.86 each.
Reply:I bought one of these once and I didn't grow anything, not even one little flower. I would say save your money and buy something that works.flower

Shrewsbury Flower Show includes a Spitfire and Mustang flypast, but what were their contributions to WW2?
Yahoo! Answers staff note: This is an official Yahoo! Answers Brain Bus question. Look here for more details: http://uk.blog.360.yahoo.com/y_answrs_te...
Shrewsbury Flower Show includes a Spitfire and Mustang flypast, but what were their contributions to WW2?
The Spitfire designed by R.J. Mitchell was our most effective fighter aircraft during the Battle of Britain. Although in terms of numbers of aircraft in service and numbers of victories it was outshone by the Hurricane. Through a process of continual development the Spitfire was able to remain in frontline sevice throughout the war.
The Mustang (once united with a licence built version of the Merlin engine) was the first high performance fighter with a long enough range to be able to protect the American 8th Air Force bomber fleets on their daylight raids on Germany. The air cover provided by the Mustang, Thuderbolt and Lightning fighters helped keep the bomber losses on these raids to a sustainable level, thus allowing the German arms factories to be bombed frequently and acurately.
Therefore the Spitfire helped to prevent the Germans gaining the air superiority that they would need in order to consider invading Britain. Whilst the Mustang ensured the air superiority required in order to destroy the German war machine.

Reply:North American
P-51D Mustang Aircraft
North American P-51D Mustang Aircraft
P-51D Mustang
The P-51 Mustang, originally designed by North American Aviation for the British RAF, proved itself in combat when it was reconfigured with a Rolls Royce Merlin engine. The upgraded configuration allowed for greater speed and a higher ceiling making it eligible for more combat roles.
In 1943, the P-51B entered combat over Europe escorting B-17 and B-24 bombers. The Mustang proved impressive in their combat role as an escort fighter, dominating German interceptors on many runs. Eventually the P-51 Mustang served in most combat theaters becoming a big factor in the dominance of the skies.
Through all of World War II and several years afterward, the Spitfire proved itself in combat as well as endearing itself to every man, woman and child who ever laid eyes on it. Not suprisingly, when the Spitfire was phased out of military service it became the prized possession for pilots around the globe. Air Marshals, test pilots, captains of industry, movie stars, and aircraft enthusiasts of all ages have fallen hopelessly under its spell for sixty-five years. More than any other aircraft in existence, the sight or sound of a Spitfire will stop any pilot in their tracks, their eyes thrust into the sky to see its shape, their ears yearning to feel the thunder of twelve cylinders at full song, their spirits transported back to the skies over Europe when the fate of the world hung in the balance.
Reply:The Spitfire was Britains main plane and its various versions were very successful in repelling the nazis in ww2..The mustang although it was developed later into ww2 played a significant part as a bomber escort plane for the americans..
Reply:The Spitfire and Mustang fighter airplanes were the U.K and U.S. single-man aircraft that succeeded in winning the air war known as the "Battle of Britain" in 1940.
Daily air duels of fighters vs. German bomber groups took place over most of the U.K. - if not for the superior speed and maneuverability of these aircraft, Germany would of achieved air superiority and possibly invaded England before the USA and allies could mount the D-Day invasion of France.
Reply:Was WW2 the theme for this year's show?
Did the flower show have something to do with 'Digging for
Britain' where everybody (not actively fighting the war) and, had access to a plot of land, cultivated fruit/vegetable crops during WW2?
Both aircraft made major contributions to winning WW2.
By the way - Where is Shrewsbury?

Reply:Well to put it very simply.. They were significant for europe..
The Spitfire along with the Hurricane, which in fact was more numerous, helped secure our Airspace and so stopped the Invasion.
The Mustang enabled the Bombers to range deep into Germany with fighter protection which they had been unable to do prior to its arrival in Europe ...

petonia
marigolds
zinnia
celosia

dianthus
dahlia
Shade/Partial Shade:
impatiens
pansy
begonia
salvia
Reply:There is a new impatient variety that loves full sun. I planted some and they are wonderful ! Also "knockout" roses. They can be pruned to maintain size. Zinnias love lots of sun...don't give them too much water. Many herbs are full sun plants. Basils, sage: many different kinds, I have a pineapple sage that makes a lovely red bloom, oregano, parsely, cilantro, lemon balm, the list goes on and on. Also lemon balm. Cannas love sun!!! Pentas! Hostas love shade as well as most ferns which make a nice filler.
Reply:geraniums and petunias should do o.k. in either. Ivy would do well in part shade.
