I would like to know why my purple Angel Trumpet is flowering instead of leafing out as it should.?

It is one foot high. It does not seem to be growing. It keeps flowering instead of producing leaves.

Why aren’t my home grown chillie plants producing flowers?

I planted them late February/early March. They look really healthy and are now about 2 /12 foot tall. Can’t seem to find an answer on the gardening websites.

Tomatoes arent doing so well?

i put my tomatoes in the ground from the pot about amonth ago , I have 4 plants total well 2 grew really tall about 3 feet but still no tomatoes , it will bloom yellow flowers but still no tomatoes , the other 2 didnt grow hardly any they are about 1 foot tall each but i have a small tomatoe on each .Why am i growing tomatoes on the little ones but not the big ones ?

I need help identifying a flower.?

It is very bright orangish-yellow. It looks like a daisy only with all yellow. The stems grow about a foot high with one flower on top of each one. It comes up every year.

Any ideas? I can send you a picture via email but I have no link to one.

Thank you for any help you can offer!
It’s not a gerber daisy. The whole flower including the middle is bright yellow. And the whole flower is probably 2 inches in diameter.

When do I replant asiatic lilies???

Several years ago I planted about 30 asiatic lily bulbs in a 3 foot x 3 foot flower bed . This year they grew and bloomed well but seem to be over crowded . Several large flowers in center and lots of smaller around edge . My question is should I dig up and give more room to grow ?? If so when ??? I live in Central Illinois And if I relocate should I get smaller ones from edge or move larger from center .

What is this plant? Would it be good for lotions etc.? Is it edible?

This plant grows in Georgia. I found it growing in gravel and in the open fields in poor soil-mostly clay and over limestone. I didn’t see any flowers. It is fragrant, smells like an herb: kind of sweet, almost pine like. The leaves are slinder and pointed with a soft fuzzy underside. The roots are thick and kind of like wood, seems to root somewhat shallow. There is a main stalk which branches off and the branches (also fuzzy) are covered in leaves. Looks a lot like a bushy version of fleabane. Leaves hands sticky! Grows to a foot/foot and a half tall, grows in groups and individually.

I am looking for small compact grass plants that grow about a foot tall or less and with a minimum spread.?

These plants will be for a flower bed in front of existing bushes. I would prefer if these plants would have a restrictive spread so that thining is not required.
