OK, so the tree in the yard had to be taken down and all you have left is the stump. Now what? Stumps are tricky to remove and then you have a hole to deal with. Maybe, looking at that stump a different way, can shed a whole new light on the situation. Here are some innovative ways to include that stump in your landscaping.
1. Turn the stump into a planter. Create a depression in the middle of the stump. add potting soil and plant annuals. The stump will help to hold moisture for the plant.
2. If the stump is large enough, turn it into a planter. You can nail or screw into it, so plant hangers can be added to create a flower focal point in the yard.
3. Hummingbirds and Butterflies will flock to a stump that has a birdbath using the stump
Imagine that wild loops were to evolve a slippery coating and a spherical shape that required them to be “speared” through their small central opening rather than “scooped” into stomach cups. Explain how the forkbird population would change.
Methods on trying to figure out where to put each plant sample near from the back, the front or in the center of the inside. Each plant sample will be given a letter and the name of the plant named on the cup. The temperature will be running inside the building to collect data of the results and the amount of water given will determined the plants from growing.
In ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’ Lee presents the tree as a way to allude to something that it’s not: Boo Radley. The tree itself is on the Radley lot, and it symbolizes Boo and him trying to communicate to the children through the knot-hole, the fact that it’s a tree is significant in that trees are deep rooted and can’t move, much like boo’s communication with the children is very limited because he doesn’t leave the house. The children do recognize his want to communicate as they write him a letter, ‘dear sir… we appreciate everything you have done for us’. When the hole gets filled with cement, it symbolizes the end of the communication; ‘tree’s dying. You plug ‘em with cement when they’re sick’ is the reason
First select a one to two year old, 3/8 to 3/4 in diameter root stock. Gently remove the root stock from the soil at the top of the tap root to expose 4 to 6 inches of the roots. The scion should come from a tree of the same diameter to maximize cambial contact, and should have a least 2 nodes on it. Make a 2 to 3 inch cut on a forty-five degree angle on the top of the root stock, separating the top of the root stock from the bottom. Cut about a one inch tongue into the cut. Do the same to the scion. Slide the tongue of the scion into that of the root stock. Be sure to match the cambium of both the root stock and the scion. Wrap the wound with a rubber strip and grafting tape to help prevent desiccation. Cover the graft with soil to the first bud. Remove the tape between 3 and 12
Well now this may have you wondering, how is a flower able to get enough water? Well a flower absorbs water with its whole service. The main part that absorbs most of the water is the plants root hairs. The
A hummingbird’s wings are shaped so that they are slightly rounded on the top. Bernoulli’s Principle explains why this helps the bird to fly. The air passing over the top of the wing must travel further than the air going under the wing. As the hummingbird moves forward, the velocity of the fluid increases over the wing and the pressure above the wing is reduced. The higher pressure under the hummingbird’s wing provides lift for the bird.

The fear of killing a houseplant keeps a lot of people from ever becoming a plant owner. What people don’t know though, is that there are plants that can almost take care of themselves. Snake Plants, Rubber Plants, Spider Plants, Aloe Vera and Philodendrons are fitting for brand new plant parents. They leave room for rookie mistakes like neglecting them for a few days or never moving them around. At the same time, they brighten up a living space and improve everyday

Tire planters with flowers or plants growing from a tire make spectacular accents for backyard designs and exterior wall decoration also. If you are determined to use some power tools to cut tires, it gives you a fabulous material to work with and create original planters, buckets, and outdoor toys for kids. Cutting the tires requires more physical force than you think maybe, but the playful half tire pieces allow more flexibility in your designs.
7. After the Incubator: After the plant has grown in the incubator, and you see shoots and roots then you can transfer the plant to only a little soil, or none. Then as time goes on slowly give it soil, light, and lower the humidity (Biotech).
Materials used for this experiment includes 8 plastic cups, 8 ziplock bags, and rubbing alcohol. The plastic cups and ziplock bags were numbered from one through 8. The cups were placed in two different habitats; four cups in each habitat. The first habitat was near a canal and the second habitat was under a tree. In the first habitat, a six-inch hole were dug and cup one was
Trees are usually considered as bland, unusual objects that are usually taken for granted; however, I believe there is more to a tree that meets the eye. They supply oxygen and shade. During the holidays, trees are able to spread holiday cheer by wearing holiday decorations. Through providing, they are always beneficial to the needs of others. Rather than having striking beauty like a flower, trees have are grounded and possess a gentle beauty; they are adapted wildflowers to their environment. In fact, if I had to compare myself to an inanimate object, I would choose a tree. A tree has many characteristics in common with me. Characteristics like relying on our roots, strength and observation, and helping others and leaving behind a powerful legacy are a few of the traits we share. All of which I believe are admirable qualities to possess.
