RedScare Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I have approximately 20 to 25 bushes free to a good home. Come and get'em. I will even provide a shovel to dig them up. I may even help, if I am not busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sevfiv Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 those philodendrons are awesome - does the taker have to take all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedScare Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 those philodendrons are awesome - does the taker have to take all?Not at all. Depending on how many takers, I'll divvy it up, but there is pleanty to choose from. What's left over, I hope to transplant to a different part of the yard.

Pumapayam Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Sounds like you are hinting for free yard work after seeing them still in your yard and not already in pots. . . . Just messing. Nice plants, I don't have a yard, so I wil pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedScare Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 I'll take free yard work anytime! Actually, I was shamed into offering them up to others last night. I was just going to rip them out, but was reminded that just because they no longer fit into my grand scheme, does not mean others won't want them. Recycling on a plant level. Now, if anyone has any Sago palms or Mexican Blue fans that they are just dying to get rid of, let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1fd Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Two questions...what kind of bushes are those, and what's that tin building in the background? A townhouse, or a garage? If its a garage, would you happen to know who built it? I'm considering a metal building/garage for my backyard, but can't find anybody that does them in the city....

RedScare Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 I am not sure what type bushes they are, but they appear to be similar to boxwoods that have grown too tall. I believe that if they are cut back, they will fill in.The metal building is my neighbor's house. He is an artist. Originally, the building housed a glass company. My neighbor bought it and built a loft and studio inside. It is very cool inside. It will be featured on HGTV later this year. The show, appropriately enough, is called, 'What's With That House?'

MidtownCoog Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Just hurry up the transplant process. The window is closing shortly. It actually was extended do to our little "cool spell". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well...from the picture, they looked like privet hedge, and your discription sounds like privet as well....usually considered a trash tree/shrub.

RedScare Posted April 19, 2007 Author Share Posted April 19, 2007 jm, you may be right...and, I agree on the trash shrub description. This hedge is the ugliest thing I have ever seen...other than the stinking china berry tree in the front yard...oversized weed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Marty Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 It looks like Privet they can be fix by trimming them with the base wider than the top so the sun hit's the bottom better. They can take a transplant pretty good just use a sharp shovel and get at least a 12 inch diameter root ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sevfiv Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 okay, two takers on the philodendrons i won't be able to take too much - they look HUGE, so maybe one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmancuso Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 can you plant those philodendrons in a pot and keep them indoors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WesternGulf Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Do you live in Rice Military? I saw an episode with a tin house from that neighborhood. It is hard to explain the outside of it in words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedScare Posted April 19, 2007 Author Share Posted April 19, 2007 Heights. I'll let you know when it comes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Marty Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 can you plant those philodendrons in a pot and keep them indoors?Yes you can but the leaves will only be 50% of the normal size of what you see in the photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
