What else but an obsession would make a person clear land, in the summer, in Florida? 94 degrees, 90% humidity but the figs need more land. This is Rafed's fault. Tomorrow the new plants go in and the irrigation, 40 ish new varieties.

As the acting judge and jury of this case....I find the defendant, Rafed, guilty as charged! A repeat offender, no less. __________________ Frank Tallahassee, FL Zone 8b North Florida Figs

Rafed, I am not choosing sides (I have to be politically correct because I may need help from the two of you in the future) but your humor is top notch! FIGuratively and literally speaking.

What does it mean when you finish clearing your own yard and then move on to clearing the adjoining sections of the neighbors yard...and moving the surveying markers so that it looks like it's your yard?

Good move Hershell, crape myrtles are a mess!!! I couldnt stand the one we had at our old house. I tried to convince my wife to let me replant the entire front yard with edibles but she probably said exactly what your wife did! __________________ Rob Zone 9a/9b were the too meet.

Hershell, I removed the two crape myrtles I had as well and replaced them (mostly) with edibles including a fig. I'm sure the neighbors think I'm nuts. __________________ Steve MD zone 7a
