Hi Ron
I was referring to Q. ellipsoidalis (Northern Pin Oak) rather than Q. palustris (Pin Oak). Those common names can really become confusing. Anyway the Q. ellipsoidalis is suppose to be more tolerant of higher pH.
I just became a member of Mark Webber's forum this morning, even though I've listened to the radio program occasionally for years. Now I've joined this tree lover's group. I am a fan of conservation and do what I can to eliminate invasive non-native…
Place to share your love of trees!

- Thanks for the advice you give on your program. I would like some advice re. plant selection. I wish to plant an ornamental cherry as a speciman next spring. I would like not only great flowers but interest in other seasons and minimal problems. Based on the OSU web site I'm considering P. serrulata Kanzan - Royal Burgandy, P. subhirtella Autumnalis or Yae-shidare Higan, or P. yeodensis Akebono. Can you comment on these and make a reccommendation? Thanks again. Doug Gabriel

- I know you mentioned you were beginning a series about vegetable gardens year-round in Ohio? When does this officially begin and where will I be able to find the info on this website? Especially if I am unable to catch you on the radio? Thanks!!

- I love it all exept the weeds. Not much of a gardner but I am learning. We have a fairly large vegtable garden. The vegtables grow very well and we harvest a lot. We grow tomatoes, beans, potatoes, peppers, squash, sunflowers, gourds and turnips. The herb space gets taken over by weeds. This past summer I was out of town so we only had tomatoes, peppers, sunflowers and squash. I have flowers around the house and they are mostly annuals. Takes a lot of time and energy to take care of all of this. Anything I learn from this blog will be greatly appreciated.

Brian Stanford said… - I haven't had a garden for a very long time, just a few tomato plants here and there. But, in the Spring, I would like to use every available space I have to get back into it. I am hoping to get a lot of information from your site and from your radio show. I enjoy the show when I have an opportunity to listen.

- Mark, this is Kathy W.! I just wanted to say hello and how EXCITED we are about coming to the big Plant Expo this weekend. We plan on spending the entire day on Sunday (Joann has to work on Sat.). I know it will be FANTASTIC! And, the good Lord is going to bless us with wonderful weather. See you then!

Denise M. Brooks said… - Thank you for welcoming me. I have learned so much from you. I am really looking forward to participating in the Garden Expo!!! I am turning art objects out of wood like a mad woman to get ready.
I really need to know how to winter lotus tubers, elephant ear tubers, and Mandevilla over the winter. My contractor built me a bulb cupboard where I keep my cannas rhizomes and glad bulbs. It has an industrial heater and I can hold the temperature above freezing and below 50 degrees. Thanks again! Denise

- Thanks Mark! I really appreciate your advice. Is a fungicide treatment for dollar spot necessary for the long term health of the turf, or would it just be for cosmetics?

Debbie Nieport said… - I had two sunflowers come up on their own in one of my flower beds, both were about 5' tall with a single large bloom at the top of the stock, but one also sprouted smaller blooms along the stem (photo). Have you seen this before? I tried to add photo, but having problems...

- Can you tell me the name of the plant that is number 11 on Mark Webber's Photos (above) it has pink flowers and very fine burgundy leaves. I love it & would like to buy one. Thanks for the website, it is very informative. Aleta Hurd (miamisburg)
