Herb Gardening

Actually, this description is quite insufficient. There are several plants that match this description, and some of them might be belonging to Echeveria or Eucomis families. Another possible candidates are the Zebra plant or Peruvian Lily.

Sagebrush is a common plant throughout the Western part of the United States and is not related in any way to the herb known as sage. When it is wet, it does smell somewhat like the herb, a probable source of the name.

Because it grows in hot, dry climates, sagebrush has adapted to minimal water requirements. It stores water in its small leaves and does not give up that water easily. So one adaptation is that its root system is able to obtain water when available. Its small waxy leaves close up their stomata (little openings on the bottom of the leaves) so as to hold on to water even during the hot, dry days.

Another adaptation is the formation of bitter tasting oils found in the leaves and stems which protects it from being grazed down by herbivores (rabbits, sheep, deer). Pronghorn antelope, also native to the same regions, can tolerate grazing on sagebrush to some extent.

The final adaptation is of a dual adaptation.

First, sagebrush reproduces primarily through underground rhizomes. "Shoots" come off the main plant and then form a new plant some distance away. This is an adaptation to the environment because the new little plant can rely on water and nutrients from the mother plant until it develops its own root system.

Second, because sagebrush does not tolerate fire and cannot come back from roots or rhizomes after a fire, it also produces seeds on a high stalk which are wind borne when mature. Seeds from plants not affected by the fire can be blown into the area which was burned off. As soon as water is available, usually from rain, the seeds can germinate and get started in the nutrient-rich ash left behind from the fire.

If you have a hothouse, anytime.

If you live in a cold are like New England you plant after the first hard fall frost and harvest 9 months later in July. In the south they usually plant soft neck varieties in the spring. Most garlic needs a long period of cold dormancy to product a good bulb.

Ginger is tuberous. They multiply pretty much like a flower bulb does, that is, the tuber grows so big and sets off a shoot for a new plant and so on.

75 years (

average)

They are grown on bushes but are flooded for easier harvest.

Buy them at michaels and they will grow about the size of a bouncy ball

In a garden it is best to harvest/pick them (1. time) when they are blooming (because you dont want them to set seeds, because those seeds will become plants with less taste, and mint spread enormusly fast) It is important when you pick them that you doesnt take them from the root but make sure there is still fresh leaves in the remaining piece of plant. It will then grow from those leaves very fast so you can pick them again later in the year. But mint is so easy to grow that it doesnt matter if you do something wrong - I just pick when i need them and just remove the flowers when they are just about to make seeds

Botanists estimate that there are more than 10000 species of flowering plants.
There are about 1 million of flowers in the whole world. So it is impossible to remember the name of each & every flower.

Yes as it contains a lot of Nitrogen.

and it has more chemicals so that the plants will be fed and you won't need worms to help it stay fresh like you would with regular dirt!

My favourite herbs for direct sunlight are thyme, there are four or five cultivars that are great additions to a garden (both as an ornamental and a culinary herb), rosemary both the upright & prostrate type, chives, French tarragon, and oregano (this also comes in many cultivars).

The short answer is yes. For more info check out the related link below.

It really does depend on the organism in question, for example some species like dragonflies include metamorphosis, which completely transforms their appearance- some species include larval stages, like butterflies. Some species on average live only for a day or two, like some species of Mayfly! But all have a life and death stage, some have a 'teenage' stage, some a child/young stage and so on. It really does depend on the animal- imagine a human before it becomes an adult curling up into a ball and constructing a cocoon around its body and hangs on a leaf (or tree, mind the weight)!

Depends on the type of tree. While some grow faster than others, it takes years for a tree to grow to any substantial size. Some willows and poplars can grow 5-8 ft per year.

anywhere from a few weeks to several decades, depends on which crop you're growing

Pansy seed germinates withing 7 - 10 days and a flower can be produced within 36 to 48 days. The normal lifespan of the plant is about 3 months depending on temperature and light

Herbal plants are plants you can use for cooking, medicine ,and drinks. Some examples are rosemary, lavender, thyme, mint, orogano,basil,etc.

Jacobite rose (Rosa alba 'Maxima.' ) dates back to the 16th century and is the double form of the white rose of York.

The scientific name for Hibiscus is Hibiscus rosa-sinensis. Although it is most commonly called Hibiscus, it is also known as rosemallow in some places.

yes they can we did a science experiment and we found that beer, salt water and caprisun also grow plants other than water

Rosemary is a tender perennial shrub. Grows in zones 7 - 10 Other places it should be planted in a container.

Where I lived in Arizona I had a rosemary hedge, it didn't need much work... a little water, a little mulch and I had rosemary anytime and in any quantity I needed.

Here in the north I keep mine in a deep terracotta pot. It goes outdoors as soon as the frosts are finished and comes in late in the fall. When I bring it in I give it a heavy pruning, my herb cupboard benefits from that, water it well and put it in a sunny window, away from a heat vent, where it is allowed to rest. Come the spring, water it well and move it back outside.

Cassava takes about 10 months to mature. This root is perishable, and should be used soon after it is harvested. To preserve the root - you may coat it with parifin wax when it harvested. Cassava may be harvested later than 10 months. But it should not be left unharvested for more than 2 years.

the juice will make the plants grow faster because the juice has more products

Chives should be grown in a sunny location in well drained soil, however these herbs also make an excellent pot herb.

They can be grown from seed (planted early in the spring, after the frost is finished), from starts (purchased from a nursery and put into the ground after the danger of frost is done), or from roots taken from an established plant (planted like starts).

Chives grown in pots can be started at any point in the year if you intend to keep them inside.

Sometime in April.
