How do you grow tea?

Tea comes from the leaves of tea plant (camellia sinensis). Tea grows best in a humid subtropical climate, but can be grown in tropical regions as well. It generally cannot be grown in cold regions or arid to semiarid regions.

It can be grown outside if you live in a warm climate with sufficient rainfall (zone 8). However you can successfully grow it in other climates by use of a greenhouse or by growing the plant inside where it will be out of danger from frost. In borderline areas, you can plant the tea plant in a warm, sheltered area.

You can buy a tea plant, grow a plant from a cutting, or even from seeds. Seeds take about four weeks in order to germinate in the damp at a warm temperature.

Tea will need an acid soil in order to grow (pH4.5-7). Many places will sell acidified soil (or soil additives). You should also be careful since most tap water is slightly basic and will decrease the acidity of the soil over time.

Soil should be well drained and sandy. Too much moisture around the plant will encourage the growth of detrimental molds and mildews so it is best to water only as much as needed. If planted outside then some protection needs to be put around it on rainy days to prevent the plant from getting too wet.

Are berries from Alexander palm poisonous?

To be honest I'm not quite sure if the berries are poisonous, but I would recommend you not to eat them just to make sure! Unless of course you know for certain that the berries are not poisonous, you could also ask a doctor or Gardener for advice if you are really unsure. I know that the Aborigines in Australia used to wrap meat in Alexanda leaves to preserve it and they would remove it before cooking. The Japanese Sago palm however is EXTREMELY poisonous so please do not get the two mixed up!! I hope this helped!

How do you keep a bonsai alive?

First of all, many kinds of trees and shrubs can be made into a bonsai. A bonsai is simply a miniature version of a tree, which is planted in a pot. Japanese maples are ideal for creating a bonsai. By selecting a nicely shaped branch, you can start a bonsai tree that will bring years of enjoyment. Here's how to create your own tree:

  1. Select the species of tree. When selecting a tree species its important to consider your geographic location. Some trees lose their leaves in the winter, while some trees will not survive long in the freezing weather. Certain trees will require a lot of water during a hot summer while others are heat hardy. FYI.
  2. Select the size of your bonsai. Bonsai trees can be as anywhere from miniature (6 inches tall) to large bonsai (up to 3 ft tall). Decide what size bonsai you would like to achieve before actually choosing the plant.
  3. Select the plant. Once you have decided which kind and what size bonsai you would like, you can go to a nursery or a bonsai shop and select the plant that you will use to make your bonsai tree.
  4. Select a pot. Select a shape and color that you personally find aesthetically pleasing. The pot must be large enough to allow enough soil to cover the roots of the plant. You do not want to have such a small amount of soil in the pot that the tree roots can not retain moisture. You will kill the plant if you do not have a large enough pot. The idea of a bonsai is to balance the pot with the plant and make the plant look like a miniature tree. Some bonsai pots do not come with pre-drilled drainage holes. If you do not have drill that will cut through ceramic, then make sure you purchase a pot with pre-drilled drainage holes.

Now you just trim and prune according to the tree you have chosen and the size you'd like to achieve! In order to assist you further, I have also posted a useful tutorial video. Happy gardening, and I hope you enjoy your bonsai! :)

Why is it important to season wood?

Wood is seasoned to reduce the moisture content. Fresh cut (or green) wood is full of water which is why it burns poorly. Expect snaps, hisses and pops if you can even get it to burn. Green wood puts out an excessive amount of smoke due to poor combustion. All seasoning does is leaves in out for a couple of seasons to dry out. vbd
