Lace the element to its right and train to start a pretty arc that will end above the entry door I think the house would be amazing in a gray-blue with white trim and shutters, with a classic sw chinese red door.

Maybe this family, with the fireplace brick being one shade deeper than the siding. Crisp white trim, your darling details are lost in the beige on beige for me.

I ordered just ordered some Sedgehammer Plus, and a spray bottle. I have my fingers crossed. Should get it by Monday, considering the holiday, won't see results for 3 weeks. Although most say it will take a few years to get rid of. I may consider sod. I would say that all the designers on here gave me excellent advice and I sense that I would not have gone wrong with any of the designs recommended for me.

I am staying with the reversed rooms for now as I said, I seldom watch TV , but who knows, maybe in a year from now, I will go for the sofa against the window.

I now have a few options for the future that do not involve buying all new furniture, but merely moving around furniture. So before I started this thread, I had no idea that you could move furniture in all the layouts and I had 3 designers at my house initial designer, first in store designer, second store designer and none of them came up with any designs that did not have the sofa against the wall.

On this thread, I was recommended with various alternative sofa arrangements and that turned out to be the major piece to be placed. Yes, I did seek advice or perhaps you can say approval from too many people around here in Alberta. I guess everyone wanted to come over and see how I was doing but in the process and, everyone wanted to suggest different things. But, yes, I feel I could have shown here my place, without allowing her to revert to designs that I eliminated earlier in this thread.

But, even from that, what I learned once and for all, is a trust my own instinct; and b trust a real designer, as on this thread, even though some had minor differences in opinions, they agreed on the major items.

I think I need assertiveness training. I am going to practice that starting this morning. Just joking. I bring my own coffee to work. Now, if I hired a new designer I would just interview many and stick with only one I will not do so now, but maybe if I ever moved and started again.

Or I would tell my friends to stick with one designer and allow that designer to complete his or her vision. Computer monitors often do not give true colors. The plane vertical vs horizontal can make a difference in how something looks. Since this is a new to you kitchen, take a few months before making changes. It does appear to me that you have a decent layout - which is great because then it is much easier to work with the cabinets you have. I have wood cabinets as noted above and found cream subway tile worked better than white, but I have seen some wood tones where white worked better.

I painted part of the backsplash white and part a color that matched the cream tile and decided on the cream. If you do change countertops, look for something warm, though it does not have to have browns in it. I do not have a marble look quartz, though people often ask me if it is marble. It has white, gray, cream and beige running through it. There are several quartz that have something like that and I am sure you can find one you like.

Your kitchen is nice now so you can take your time making changes. Countertop does come first, along with a sink, followed by backsplash and wall paint as to the order of projects. Don't be put off that most of the kitchens will be white, you can still do it and keep your cabinets wood.

They never seem to look like the ones in the store. Barbara—If your bed is over three years old, I would next ask how fertile your soil is; do you add any compost? Also, do you leave the ferny stalks until they turn brown? They need their foliage to store nutrients for next year. In terms of size for harvesting, the rule of thumb is to harvest stalks that are the dimension of a pencil or greater.

Harvest when they are about six to eight inches high. Thanks, Daisy for the sage advice. We definitely made some faux pas this year. I leave mine alone. They are pretty in the fall and the birds like them. I have plenty of asparagus otherwise. I have a few female plants, but there is no way I could remove them. The bed was here when I moved in, and may be very old. I just let them go and cut them back when they all die. Now that they are established, they are some of my best producers.

John A. John, that is great to hear! Did you let the berries dry and shrivel on the fern? I ask because I'd love to start some now, but I assume the seeds are not done cooking yet. Maybe I'll pop a few in a container of annuals I have going and see if anything happens. And as you can maybe tell from my handle, I love starting things from seed. With all due respects to John, though, female 'gus plants don't contribute to a productive bed even close to the productivity of all-male Jersey plants With that said, enjoy your seeds and experiment at will.

After all, gardening is supposed to be fun as well as for providing us with many yummy, fresh products. I think maybe 4" apart. I kinda think it was Martha Washington seed. I let the patch go for two years, then dug a trench late in March along the long edge of the patch. I "washed out" the crowns, and bagged them for a couple months. Late May, I did a trench planting of maybe half of the crowns I harvested.

I let the new patch go a couple years and started picking the 3rd year. Never paid much attention to female or male plants, just cut the whole mess down at the end of the year and composted the fern heads. I always noticed a lot of berries, and last year I cut the seed heads and kept them over the winter in the garage.

Out of a patch maybe 15 feet square, I ended up with gallons of seed pods. If the female plants don't produce edible spears, I couldn't tell. We still eat real good every spring. Curiously, now I noticed today, I only have 2 or 3 fern heads with seed pods on them this year Indem Sie weiterhin auf der Website surfen bzw.
