How do I safely remove the moss from the Dogwood and Japanese Maple. Thank you.  Rod

Hi Sassy and Ciscoe. I love your show! What is this weed? Ye wise one? It is all over my garden! HELP!

I saw Watsonia in one of your favorite plant talks. What's the trick to getting them to bloom?  Mine bloomed the first year I planted it about 3 years ago and hasn't bloomed since.  I have them in full-sun and well drained soil in my north Seattle garden. They get adequate water and organic bulb food in spring.  Emily

I work in an office here in Tacoma and I have been trying to keep this plant alive !! It gets watered every Friday, and it just struggles and struggles and then low and behold, last week it sprouted flowers!! It just looks so hopeless!  Is there something we should be doing besides water to keep the leaves green? The ivy in the base of the pot is thriving but not so much about the plant! Thank you for your time. Nancy

See, I told you it looked very sad. 

I may have to go shopping! 

Sassy

This song is all about turkeys.

And, (contrary to the activities demonstrated by the boys), we encourage safe sax.

George Washington speaks!

By the President of the United States of America, a Proclamation.

Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor-- and whereas both Houses of Congress have by their joint Committee requested me to recommend to the People of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.

Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next to be devoted by the People of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be-- That we may then all unite in rendering unto him our sincere and humble thanks--for his kind care and protection of the People of this Country previous to their becoming a Nation--for the signal and manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of his Providence which we experienced in the course and conclusion of the late war--for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty, which we have since enjoyed--for the peaceable and rational manner, in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national One now lately instituted--for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed; and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general for all the great and various favors which he hath been pleased to confer upon us.

and also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech him to pardon our national and other transgressions-- to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually--to render our national government a blessing to all the people, by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed--to protect and guide all Sovereigns and Nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us) and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord--To promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the en-crease of science among them and us--and generally to grant unto all Mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as he alone knows to be best.

Given under my hand at the City of New York the third day of October in the year of our Lord 1789.

PLEASE CALL 360-681-0000 if your Tickety-Boo remains elusive.

Here's a hint: 

"Music NOT Mayhem"

Now:

Danny Kaye was recently re-united with his Tickety-Boo.

But Elmer Fudd continues in his search.

Well.

What do you expect from a diaper-clad man sporting wings, bows, arrows, safety pins and a black fedora?

Hi there, Ciscoe. A few street tree Butterfly Magnolias growing in a planting strip next to a City Light facility are showing signs of a disease. I’m stumped as to what is causing this problem. Any ideas? Many thanks!  HEIDI
