When I bought this hydrangea it was a brilliant pink but within 2 weeks its blooms have changed to green. They appear healthy and aren’t browning. They are potted with good drainage and sit on an east facing porch. All of the blooms were present at the time I brought it home with the exception of the small new cluster. I really want the color back on this plant. I don’t care WHAT color (pink, blue, white, purple) but I have no idea why it changed or what needs to be done to encourage the color to return. Suggestions needed and appreciated.

I have European larch. The leaves are changing to gold. Can you tell me what is the problem and how to solve it? Thanks

Anyone know what’s going on with my cucumbers and tomatoes? Wilting and dying even though I water when the first inch is dry. I tried to save with first Saturday lime but no luck. They are next to squash could it be a vine borer? Thank you!

I have many bushes of boxwood bonsai here in Denver. Any ideas on how to prune? Am I supposed to make them look like the little bonsais in pots?

You don’t see them in this picture but something has been eating little hole in my potato vine. I’m not sure what it is but I need something to kill the culprits. Any suggestions?

What should I do with this Wisteria before it gets out of hand?! I’m renting so I don’t want to do anything permanent that can’t be moved with me.

todays harvest — just enough green beans to make a half pint jar of pickles (maybe supplement with a carrot, too)
