Hey, Lynnie.........unfortunately, as far as I know there is nothing to prevent the trees from shedding nuts. It is mother natures way of protecting the trees. Survival of the fittest.

Hey, Dixie.....the greenhouse is small, only 10' x 10'. We have a dwarf orange and lemon tree that need a place to stay during the cooler weather....they are in containers. I also plan to grow bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, stuff like that in container gardens inside the greenhouse. I also plan to grow flowers for flower pots and start plants

I'm here........I usually check on the forum every weekday morning to see what is going on. Unfortunatly, lately, I don't see too much that needs my input. The hubby did finally build my greenhouse.........now I'm looking for cool weather to start using it. We are actually getting a little bit of rain today as well. The monsoons have pretty

I still pop in from time to time to check and see if anything or anyone needs my input and 2 cents worth. I am presently present and accounted for .

Well, I'm still around, here and there, mostly there. As I mentioned before, I spend most of my time on FoxNews and GretaWire.com. GretaWire is a blast if you aren't an Obama fan. I'm not. I know, who the flock cares. I care, THAT's who cares. Back to GretaWire.............
