I have many questions,#1I am new to this shallow tilling,how deep,and consider these are raised beds? #2I am adding a bed this year for corn,for this I will need to compose my own soil,how much of the native layer is it ok to disturb before i add(using a mixture of bagged topsoil,peatmoss,compost and a manure,humus bag mixture?)This is not a large operation,more almost experimental at this point,and realize this is my first year total organic,I have been mistreating this soil for years and am trying to create a balanced mini organic ecosystem.I am only dealing right now with about 400 sq ft,but even this small plot,fertilizers,worm castings,topsoil,peatmoss,manure humus,gets to be not real cheap.Question3 Is it possible to grow high quality organic herbs in containers,there are some totally organic potting soils out there,but r they complete enough?

Question: How close to my house can I plant a Cottonwood tree?

Cottonwoods grow to be immense trees attaining dimensions of up to 40 - 50 feet tall and wide with a root system to match. Cottonwoods have a surface root system that can heave sidewalks, crack walls and home foundations if planted too close.

Please contact us or stop by the store for more information.

It is not suitable for poorly drained heavy clasy soils. Afghan Pines are generally pyramidal or Christmas tree shaped in form when young   becoming more oval or irregular with age.

If you miss’em visually then they will stab you painfully in the fingers as you work your garden, or stick to your clothing and shoes. Goatheads are the primary reason local bicyclists must get “thorn proof” tires for riding on area trails and streets. Goatheads have prostrate stems that radiate outward from one central point. Leaves are compound with smaller leaflets. Lemon yellow flowers form along the stems and fertilized flowers form fruits.   Fruits consist of several attached structures called nutlets (Goatheads). Each nutlet is a single seed that becomes hard or woody when mature. Each seed has two sharp spines that easily pene...
