Two exciting things happened today.
First, we lost power in my house. From what I hear, a quarter million people in central Massachusetts also lost power. It was out for about 17 hours. I was afraid that the plant light in the basement might blow because of the flickering but it seems to have survived.
Second, last night something happed and the original theme got messed up. Rather than fix it I went to another theme I had hanging around on the computer.
After installing it and tweaking it a little bit I noticed the Photo section was no longer working. In an attempt to fix it I upgraded to the latest wordpress. Unfortunately it didnt help. The photos link is still broken, but I plan to try to fix it some more tonight.
I hope people like the new look of the site. If you have any suggestions please leave a comment for me. Im always happy to read them.

Q. Can you prune silver mound in the fall?
A. It's better to wait until spring. The foliage that remains above the plant will help protect it over the winter months from the cold. I've found that when in doubt prune dead back plants in the spring just when new growth is starting to emerge. I've done this with mums, Russian sage, and most of our other perennials and they have done great! You just have to be able to tolerate the dead branches through the winter months.
Q. Can you start impatiens from cuttings?
A. You sure can! Very easily too. If you have a couple of impatiens started you can get a few extras going very quickly. Just take a cutting with two nodes and two leaves and treat in rooting hormone then place it in your potting medium. It won't take long at all before more impatiens are ready to plant.
Q. How long do catmint cuttings take to root?
A. 5 days, 3 hours, 24 minutes and 11.3 seconds on the nose. OK I confess I didn't time it but I've had them root in anywhere between 5 days and 2 weeks. It all depends on growing conditions and the cutting itself. Bottom heat will speed up those cuttings. I've found that the older the cutting is the slower it tends to root. Cuttings of new growth taken in spring root much faster for me than cuttings in the summer or fall.
