Quote: I think I see that a lot here, thank yoU!

Thanks guys..I have years of forum experience and know to search search search..before asking questions..but I just could not find enough info on this...I love Tucson, but we need shade and it makes sense to plant things on the outside of the link to make it more attractive..give that shade and...

Sunny, we grew EVERYTHING in half wine barrels in CA..I used to buy a whole barrel for $15 and cut it in half..people are on CRACK here..lowe's sells the half barrels for $40 and people usually want almost $100 for their barrels!! I don't know why they are sooo expensive here...I love them and...

Quote: We grew passionflower in CA...I will see if I can find one here! I love Tucson too..I really do.

You guys are so helpful..thank you so much!

I think this is a wonderful idea and I was told grapes do really well here in AZ> I think I will save this idea though for when I own my own home LOL We are renting..so everything has to be cheap and fast growing

Quote: No, for now I just put dirt in it, since I have an endless supply thanks to the dogs digging all the time. LoL. As for the Yams, I have a weird maybe 1 foot strip of ground between the concrete pan of our shed turned coop/run and our fence, so I put em in there. Hence the reason I'm not...

Quote: How long do they take to grow?

Quote: The first time I experienced one..I swear people probably thought I thought I was 5.

Quote: I know...I noticed the difference in humidity immediately when I went to Phoenix for the first time..Phoenix feels like Sacramento..where I am from. You guys have so much grass! I will never forget one facebook conversation I was having with 2 friends..one was in New York, one here in...

Quote: We don't seem to get nearly as hot as you guys!! And I noticed you guys use a lot more grass..which adds to the humidity factor..I think Phoenix looks like a CA city..nothing like Tucson...that's for sure...LOL I will check out those links..thank you!!

Quote: Cucs..another great idea..thank you!

Quote: Bodily harm would never stop me..I love my Morning Glories..and really here, the ground is so dry, very few sprout on their own..to propagate we have to soak and file the seeds and most grown now are hybrids that don't replant on their own..I miss them:(

Quote: DO you have the sand floor like we do here in Tucson? Yams do well in that? Are you putting anything over them or do you not have a ground squirrel issue? I loved the squirrels but they are putting holes all over our entire acre!!!!!! I ordered wheat grass and I do plan on doing the...

Quote: Nina, in CA I grew like like 90 different varieties of glories...people keep saying to not plant them becuase they are toxic..but besides that..they are illegal here My heart is broken. I see people doing it anyway...who cares if I get a citation

Thank you..I like both of those ideas..I also ordered some of the scarlet runner beans....
