Very beautiful and blooms a lot but I notice a couple of weeks ago one of them is dying and another one is looking like its heading that way too. The leaves starts out having little brown spots and then the leaves turned brown. The only thing that I can think of is that we didn't have any rain for the most part of the summer and then it started to rain lots just before fall started. <br />Any suggestions would be much appreciated.<br /><br />ThanksAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6769175423095202512.post-85638705539499798912011-09-17T14:31:10.266-05:002011-09-17T14:31:10.266-05:00I planted Albion and Earligrow this year.

I did plant Albion's & it is the end of may. The berries are beautiful, sweet, juicy, & nicely sized. The difference from previous experience's was I designed a soil w/ ph of 6 from a 7+, & lots of organic material, pine needles etc. Do not add ash as it will raise the ph of the soil. All I can say now is yummmmmm. <br />Fresco FarmsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6769175423095202512.post-90639888364597021342011-04-10T11:11:20.245-05:002011-04-10T11:11:20.245-05:00I have Josee Lilacs that are three years old.

They are always late to emerge in the spring so I have to remember where they are planted so I do not accidentally dig them up while sowing new plants.

It may seem like a huge output initially but, you'll lower your energy use (saving money) and I'll bet that these bulbs will last a long time (saving more money). I bought some CFLs when we moved into our current home ... 6 years ago ... and they haven't burned out. And 6 years ago ... they weren't making them as good as the ones today.<br /><br />YOU DID GREAT!! And thanks ... it's people like you who are making this world a better place!<br /><br />Enjoy your new "earth friendly" lighting!<br /><br />Small FootprintsAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18323775808390175925noreply@blogger.com
