You might be surprised at how many people like to give advise on such matters. ;-)

Get tomato plants if not already too late

Our local farmer's market had several different types of tomato plants for sale, so I would say that it's definitely not too late.

Freecyle list entry for old couch

Go, Freecycle! That's where we got one of our rain barrels.

Glad to collect multiple viewpoints. I know jdulac to be a gardener, and damascene offered to answer questions when she saw jducoeur earlier this week, too. Happy to hear from you and helwen as well, and others I haven't named!

Advice invited on tomatoes, roses, pruning, hedges. Also if anybody knows what those thistley things are that grow really really tall with a single stubborn, hollow, stalk, please say.

Really tall? Like twice a person's height or more? That sounds like horseweed/wild lettuce (!), grows along roadsides and other "verge" areas.

I used to make blowguns out of that stuff (long before I started in the SCA). ;-)

Yeah, that tall. Hairy leaves of the general shape of a thistle's. Not too hard to pull up intact, but prolific and invasive.
