Speaker 3: The Green Country Gardener Program with our.
Speaker 2: Expert learning class is brought to you by Green Delom
Speaker 2: Nursery and Greenhouses United Relands. How They Banks, Tree Service,
Speaker 2: Roman's Outdoor Power, Accent, Pest Control, Ascension, Saint John, Jane
Speaker 2: Phillips at Gateway First Pack and good morning, Good morning, morning, welcome, welcome,
Speaker 2: welcome in. It's time now for the Green Country Gardener Show.
Speaker 2: Larry Glass is our expert. Time Tom, I justn't answered
Speaker 2: the phones. And speaking of phones, it is one eight
Speaker 2: hundred seven poor nine five nine three six that'll get
Speaker 2: you on the air well A little bit warm out
Speaker 2: there in the garden and in the lawn, Larry.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well what expect it's August already.
Speaker 3: No, this is middle middle of July.
Speaker 4: You're like, god, we got two months of this?
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe three. The record high for July. He brought
Speaker 2: in this big chart folks, and.
Speaker 5: I got one hundred and fifteen degrees was the record high.
Speaker 5: I didn't say when. And the mean temperature it's really
Speaker 5: mean one point nine wow, typical. The daily maximum mean
Speaker 5: is ninety two point seven and the daily means eighty
Speaker 5: point six.
Speaker 4: Whatever that means.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of meaning going on there.
Speaker 5: Actually, the record minimum is record low was forty eight
Speaker 5: degrees at the.
Speaker 4: One point in time.
Speaker 3: I don't think.
Speaker 4: I think somebody let the fridge open that day.
Speaker 5: Must yeah, that's probably in you know, seventeen eighty or something.
Speaker 5: And typically in July we get three point six five
Speaker 5: inches of rain, which I think we got.
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm pretty already over with.
Speaker 4: So then I was looking at the forecast and hot, hot, steamy.
Speaker 5: Well, actually some people have come in and here's my
Speaker 5: my ring gauge over here showing two and quarter inches
Speaker 5: after this week, So we're right about on que Actually,
Speaker 5: just it all comes at once, it does, and the
Speaker 5: long range of forecast for.
Speaker 4: The next week is calling for nothing. Nothing, yeah, I think.
Speaker 5: So we're starting the landscape crew starting at six am.
Speaker 5: We're knocking off at around one or two o'clock. It
Speaker 5: seems kind of strange you go home so early, but
Speaker 5: golly when you come out there with crack it.
Speaker 3: On, well, I know, I know those hours.
Speaker 2: Well, I still someone sharing the road with me besides
Speaker 2: the guy in the bread truck and the officer.
Speaker 5: So anyway, it's just how you deal with the weather.
Speaker 5: You try to work around a little bit and keep
Speaker 5: yourself hydrated before you mow your grass, get buns of
Speaker 5: water in. You don't wait till after the fact, but
Speaker 5: you want to be prepared and go ahead and drink
Speaker 5: a lot of water before you mow your grass. And
Speaker 5: if you have to take a break halfway through, so
Speaker 5: what at least you at least you won't get too
Speaker 5: hot and and and expire what's the word right out?
Speaker 5: What's the word desiccated?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Yeah, you won't get to to dried up, rated, yeah yeah,
Speaker 5: hydrated yeah yeah, anyway.
Speaker 3: Between the doors will get it.
Speaker 5: So before you go out and do some work in
Speaker 5: the yard, even though it's not very hot yet, still
Speaker 5: want to you go ahead and get hydrated, and it's
Speaker 5: just plaine of water works.
Speaker 4: Fine, So that's kind of how we That's how I
Speaker 4: deal with it too.
Speaker 5: Carry this big old water jug around with me where
Speaker 5: and try to empty it out, you know, during the
Speaker 5: course of the day, just uh, and just so you
Speaker 5: don't get overrun by the heat. Your body has a
Speaker 5: way of keeping itself cool with selecting and all that,
Speaker 5: but if you don't let it do it, you'll get overheated.
Speaker 4: Then you got problems.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, we've got to call it. We do. Hey,
Speaker 3: good morning, and welcome to the Green Country Gardener.
Speaker 2: Your you're called your comment, Good morning morning.
Speaker 7: Have a question that Hardy had discus.
Speaker 8: Yeah, so once they boom, is that helpful.
Speaker 7: To uh, pull off, cut off whatever the little what
Speaker 7: you call it?
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it wouldn't hurt to cut those off.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: In fact, it might even make it bloom some more.
Speaker 5: If you cut those off, it'll probably send out a
Speaker 5: sideshoot and continue blooming. They have a fairly long bloom
Speaker 5: period during the during the summer. And I have some
Speaker 5: of my house and I keep them cut back after
Speaker 5: they're done, and sometimes I'll put on some flowers.
Speaker 9: Okay, that's all I need to know.
Speaker 4: Thank you, all right, thanks for calling.
Speaker 3: All right, thank you very much for your composting.
Speaker 2: And it's really easy. All you have to do is
Speaker 2: dial one eight hundred seven nine five dying three six
Speaker 2: and that will get you one with Larry.
Speaker 5: Hibiscus mushadoes well are actually it is a native American
Speaker 5: species typical and there's native to swampy areas. Actually. Okay,
Speaker 5: so anyway, somebody said, oh that's a cool plant. Let's
Speaker 5: hybridize it. Now, we got flowers the size the folkswagens.
Speaker 4: They do.
Speaker 5: They do make a real nice large flower and they
Speaker 5: are really extraordinarily hardy. However it can be, and I
Speaker 5: think we're talking about them this week, but anyway, they are.
Speaker 5: They do come up late in the year, and when
Speaker 5: they come up, it's in three days or like twelve
Speaker 5: feet tall.
Speaker 4: Wow, No, they're not that tall.
Speaker 3: Yeah, my goodness.
Speaker 5: Once it gets warm enough, they really grow quickly. So okay,
Speaker 5: at the nursery, we still have lots of color. We
Speaker 5: got stuff on sale to so come on check it
Speaker 5: out and.
Speaker 4: See you. Here we go.
Speaker 5: Rosa Sharon's a thirty percent off African bottle it's a
Speaker 5: thirty percent off Japanese maples, thirty percent off, Clematis, thirty
Speaker 5: percent off. I date just thirty percent off prinso dollar off, etcetera, etcetera,
Speaker 5: et cetera. So anyway, it's coming to the end of
Speaker 5: our fiscal year, so we need to sell some stuff.
Speaker 8: Here.
Speaker 5: You go anyway, come on out and take advantage of
Speaker 5: the sale prices. You know, it's not too late to plant.
Speaker 5: You just have to be a little bit more diligent
Speaker 5: with it. You need to be more observant with it.
Speaker 5: And I don't plant too deeply, and definitely do not
Speaker 5: over water. There can cause some problems. I've met with
Speaker 5: the customer yesterday and her hinge and chicks were rotten away. WHOA, Well,
Speaker 5: we've had a superfluous amount of brains, yes we have.
Speaker 5: And hens and chicks simply are not they're not ducks
Speaker 5: to pervive them. They're they're yeah, really, they're just not
Speaker 5: suited for extended periods of wet weather. So hens and
Speaker 5: chicks and seasons like that or something. You just simply
Speaker 5: don't have the water that much because they store a
Speaker 5: lot of water, okay, and they're just not suited to
Speaker 5: wet areas like that. So in the Vesta regard this week,
Speaker 5: tomatoes is showing some wet and heat related problems. You
Speaker 5: might have some yellow leaves on the bottom as they
Speaker 5: go up, and a lot of times that can be
Speaker 5: alleviated with some bulch. It's a big fan of that.
Speaker 5: For the tomatoes are well, tom it's a it's a
Speaker 5: fundus issue. It bounces off the soil. When we have
Speaker 5: brain and it gets on there, it CAUs there's a
Speaker 5: fun problem. So adding some molts to tomatoes just fine.
Speaker 5: I go to people's houses where they have tomatoes with
Speaker 5: molts and beautiful green leaves all the way from the
Speaker 5: bottom of the one up solid huh yeah. And these
Speaker 5: giant tomatoes you know, the.
Speaker 3: Size of basketballs.
Speaker 4: Huh well that or cageball.
Speaker 2: Yeah, big tomatoes, record ball size, majors.
Speaker 4: Man.
Speaker 3: There you go.
Speaker 5: I didn't grow any tomatoes this year. My garden is fallow.
Speaker 4: Okay, but next year I'll grow something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're just a little too busy. Dodge and thunderbolts
Speaker 2: and brain drops.
Speaker 4: This great. They've got a broken toe and a broken finger.
Speaker 4: That's still.
Speaker 2: You've been the pillar and pill for a long time.
Speaker 2: This year you break two bones, I know, and you
Speaker 2: never miss a day or work.
Speaker 5: I wasunderneath our tractor yesterday working on maintenance, bagor maintenance.
Speaker 4: That's fun.
Speaker 5: Shade anyway, head to doe because the only time we
Speaker 5: had to work on stuff like that is when it rains.
Speaker 3: And yeah, and just.
Speaker 5: Headed dope covered in mud and great and oil. I
Speaker 5: was just in my element, just loved it.
Speaker 3: I can't tell you smiling your ears.
Speaker 5: God anyway, we just had to do a maintenance on
Speaker 5: oil change. So wow, that's the kind of stuff we
Speaker 5: do when we can't dig a hole in the ground,
Speaker 5: do that kind of stuff too. So anyway, bermuda grass
Speaker 5: and oyster grass are growing rapidly now. The crabgrass is
Speaker 5: mature m so it's kind of too late to control
Speaker 5: crab grass. Yeah, a lot that's at that stage right
Speaker 5: now where a post emergent crabgrass control simply doesn't work.
Speaker 2: No, you spray round up on it and you're gonna
Speaker 2: get yellow spots all over the.
Speaker 4: Stay around and go buy some sod. I guess yeah,
Speaker 4: is this what we.
Speaker 3: Call claw hammery time? Were you?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Actually I did that yesterday when he came home. There's
Speaker 5: there's two kinds of craggrass. One of them has it's
Speaker 5: very I don't know what they call it because I'm
Speaker 5: not a professional when it comes to craggrass, but it
Speaker 5: has its real long stem and forms just open like
Speaker 5: an open hand on the ground and those just just
Speaker 5: pull them up, throw them under the lawn bower and
Speaker 5: drying them up, spread the seeds everywhere.
Speaker 3: So yeah, it get somebody else's yard.
Speaker 5: So yeah, the craggrass at least it's it's alive and growing.
Speaker 5: I think it's feeling a little too hot for some
Speaker 5: of it, kind of turning a little brown around the edges.
Speaker 3: A little bit. So wow.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 5: So also it's a time to maybe do another fertilization
Speaker 5: on your bimeter as your grass, But don't do it
Speaker 5: unless you have moisture in the ground what you do
Speaker 5: right now, or have a means by which it can
Speaker 5: be watered through right away too.
Speaker 3: Diffusion is what it takes.
Speaker 5: Maybe, Yeah, if you put it, if you put fertilizer
Speaker 5: down on drug ground, it can cause some problems.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 10: Uh.
Speaker 5: Shallow ritz is one of them, and it makes the
Speaker 5: grass intolerant of dry conditions because hey, this.
Speaker 3: Is I don't have to work.
Speaker 4: Fertilizer right there.
Speaker 5: I don't have to go down deep to get it
Speaker 5: and then it then it droughtstress is real bad. So
Speaker 5: you can still fertilize but lightly right now on the lawn,
Speaker 5: just just to kind of keep it going a little
Speaker 5: bit and be prepared to irrigate when that happens when
Speaker 5: you do put it down too. Okay, So grass is
Speaker 5: growing erma grasses in its element right now. It tolerates
Speaker 5: the heat quite well. So good fescue grass, though, keep
Speaker 5: it tall. Don't don't cut your fescue grass very short
Speaker 5: and sowers your grass kind of the same thing. Don't
Speaker 5: cut it too short right now, all the grasses need
Speaker 5: to be fairly high. And what that does it increases
Speaker 5: the surface area of the of the grass, so it
Speaker 5: has a better chance to keep yourself cool. It also
Speaker 5: helps shade the ground a little bit. Keep that just
Speaker 5: a little bit cooler too.
Speaker 3: Now. I've been mowing it kind of high, even when
Speaker 3: it was kind of wet. Yeah, and I had mook
Speaker 3: quite often.
Speaker 2: Too, but oh, it just seems like you get you
Speaker 2: get a tent of an inch exploded, and it's like.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, Okay, here I go. I'm getting in shape.
Speaker 4: That we had to buy a corner a lot.
Speaker 3: Uh huh.
Speaker 5: That's what I got, So I delegate designate areas. I
Speaker 5: don't know the whole thing at once, especially when it's hot,
Speaker 5: So I do some bit on one day, So about
Speaker 5: about a three day cycle. That's about motographs because you know,
Speaker 5: work all day out of the heat. The less you
Speaker 5: want to do is well, yeah, you got to keep.
Speaker 11: It neat you do.
Speaker 4: The neighbors might code yeah, rock fet your house.
Speaker 2: It's over there. Yeah, well shoot, they get off work.
Speaker 2: You know, it's the west. We do the west side
Speaker 2: first where it's kind of cool, and then kind of
Speaker 2: gradually do the front and then I'll wait till Sunday.
Speaker 3: Too in the back. Yeah.
Speaker 5: I do do a little bit at a time when
Speaker 5: it's really hot. You know, when you get to be
Speaker 5: my age, just kind of have to do that.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I take a lot of breaks. See you
Speaker 2: got a writer, don't you know? You know you got
Speaker 2: to push her. Yeah, that's why I got.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's got this variable speed and always run as
Speaker 5: the fastest speed.
Speaker 4: Keep those blades sharp.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I got, I just got one speed.
Speaker 4: It's a good workout too.
Speaker 3: Actually it is a good workout. I have one speed.
Speaker 2: It's called Mosy Mosy and is a mowen.
Speaker 5: Yeah, my mower is thirty years old. It needs a
Speaker 5: new transmission. So okay, when Craig myrtles, uh there right
Speaker 5: now they are and they're doing quite well. I know
Speaker 5: I haven't won in front of my house.
Speaker 3: That's right. Happened after it?
Speaker 5: Right, It kind of went a little floppy on me.
Speaker 5: But it seems to be pulling himself back up. And
Speaker 5: I see that a lot of in the great myrtles
Speaker 5: because I had a lot of weight and the rain
Speaker 5: kind of made them bend down a little bit. You
Speaker 5: could lighten them up a little bit, but not much.
Speaker 5: And look at look at the blooms and if they're
Speaker 5: if they're expired. In other words, the plumes come up
Speaker 5: on the tips, the blooms come up on the tips
Speaker 5: of the branch, and when they start to die out
Speaker 5: that you still have time to cut them back and
Speaker 5: they will regenerate.
Speaker 4: Some blooms. At this point in time, the day length.
Speaker 5: Is such that that's typically what affects them and what
Speaker 5: stimuls in the bloom is the length of day. And
Speaker 5: while we're still at this people although we're going down
Speaker 5: a little bit on.
Speaker 3: The peak, we're still in the arch.
Speaker 5: There's still time for them to put on somewhere bloom.
Speaker 5: So if the blooms are starting to kind of to deteriorate,
Speaker 5: and you can cut those old blooms off and chances
Speaker 5: are it will send out a side shooting and bloom
Speaker 5: even more.
Speaker 3: Oh there you go.
Speaker 4: Yeah, look at the color of your crepe myrtle.
Speaker 5: If you've got a red one and it's not really
Speaker 5: super red, you might have a phosphorus deficiency. And I
Speaker 5: wouldn't recommend fertilizing it too much at this point, but
Speaker 5: just as a good practice, give it some ten twenty
Speaker 5: ten something like that early in the spring and that'll
Speaker 5: help it. But enhance enhance phosphor's content will help the
Speaker 5: bloom color in the bloom volume too, got it, So
Speaker 5: give them some of that earlier in the spring. I
Speaker 5: think we discussed it and show us past to what
Speaker 5: to do with the crepe myrtles. But right now, don't
Speaker 5: water them too much. At this point. You can get
Speaker 5: mildew and mold on them, stuff real bad. So give
Speaker 5: they like it a little bit on the dry side.
Speaker 5: They really don't like wet feet, so they should do. Okay,
Speaker 5: watch out for a scale insect on them too. It's
Speaker 5: a traite myrtle. Scale is a pretty bad problem with them.
Speaker 5: And look at the stand and look for a little tiny,
Speaker 5: little white specs on them, and those are typically our
Speaker 5: scale insects. You can kind of rub them off a
Speaker 5: little bit, but there are some controls for that you
Speaker 5: can get you too.
Speaker 3: Sopie waterworks.
Speaker 4: Sophie water works pretty well. Captain Jack's dead bug works
Speaker 4: pretty good.
Speaker 3: All right, Captain Jack's dead bug, it works pretty good. Yeah.
Speaker 5: Also one cure and is a metoploprid too. It's a
Speaker 5: systemic and it works from within. Okay, So you mix
Speaker 5: it up and pour it on the ground and the tree.
Speaker 4: Draws it up.
Speaker 3: Dope, put it on the tree.
Speaker 5: It's a systemic nicotinoid, gotcha, and it affects the nervous
Speaker 5: system of the insect.
Speaker 2: All right, We're going to take a quick break, folks.
Speaker 2: We are going to be back after this two minute,
Speaker 2: thirty second time out.

Speaker 2: All right, it's eight twenty seven. We went a little
Speaker 2: along with that's okay, it is seventy seven degrees and
Speaker 2: this is the Green Country Gardener Program.
Speaker 3: I'm Tom, He's Larry. Larry Glasses are expert.
Speaker 2: And our phone line is open at one eight hundred
Speaker 2: seven four nine five nine three six.
Speaker 3: And I gotta tell you you're the busiest man.
Speaker 5: Yeah, doorbell ring, I thought it was on start tracking
Speaker 5: the door was nobody, okay.
Speaker 4: Irrigation systems, Yeah.
Speaker 2: So talk about irrigation system down to rain for another
Speaker 2: six months.
Speaker 5: You really want to allow a at least a slight
Speaker 5: drying period between irrigation systems.
Speaker 2: Is that in order to keep the plants always thirsting
Speaker 2: a little bit?
Speaker 4: Well?
Speaker 5: Yeah, that, and it helps it stimulates a deeper root system.
Speaker 5: So when you do irrigate, set out of something and
Speaker 5: say how long it takes you to do an inch
Speaker 5: of water, and that's how much time you need to
Speaker 5: go on a week?
Speaker 3: Okay, that's all. Yeah, So you gotta do a little math, a.
Speaker 5: Little bit of mathea and you can save you some
Speaker 5: water too. Actually, and you do want the ground to
Speaker 5: dry out on the surface significantly before I go to
Speaker 5: a lot of people's yards and they run their sprint
Speaker 5: cards that on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, eight o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 5: And then when you dig a hole in the ground,
Speaker 5: the grass is only you know, two inches deep because yeah,
Speaker 5: because it there's no incentive to go down and dig in, and.
Speaker 4: So you need to irrigate.
Speaker 5: You know, the sprinkler heads have specifications and how much
Speaker 5: water you put out basically on the nozzle, tam there
Speaker 5: in the spacing, et.
Speaker 4: Cetera, et cetera, and uh, typically thirty minute.
Speaker 5: It takes about thirty minutes to do an inch of
Speaker 5: rain or so, and a rainbird five thousand and three
Speaker 5: point zero. So you want to keep that in mind
Speaker 5: for a total length of time. Look, you need to
Speaker 5: research and look at the precipitation rate. How much water
Speaker 5: do you put down on a given time And it's
Speaker 5: easy to do. Just take the wife's at night with
Speaker 5: thirteen pin and turn it on and combat to you
Speaker 5: with a rolling pin.
Speaker 4: With my cookwaard's off there.
Speaker 5: It's just my cookware my case anyway, and that'll tell
Speaker 5: you how much how long to irrigate an a given
Speaker 5: period of time. Typically on this thing totals we have
Speaker 5: a year of precipitation of what is it average inches
Speaker 5: forty point five inches of rain given here, Yeah, and
Speaker 5: that's about an inch a week, so.
Speaker 4: Maybe a little less. But so.
Speaker 5: The thing is, though you do want the surface of
Speaker 5: the grass and your plants, do you want the surface
Speaker 5: of the soil to dry out a little.
Speaker 4: Bit between water?
Speaker 5: These plants just simply aren't suited for living in a
Speaker 5: constantly wet environment. You know, if you're growing cattails and.
Speaker 4: Lily pads, that's another story.
Speaker 5: But bermuda grass and stuff like that. No, it doesn't
Speaker 5: need so much water. So Monday, Wednesday, Friday, it's fine,
Speaker 5: but know how much rain or water you're putting down
Speaker 5: in that time period. And another factor considered is the slope.
Speaker 5: If you have a fairly steep slope on there, you
Speaker 5: do want to water, say Monday or Tuesday or Thursday
Speaker 5: or whatever, twice.
Speaker 4: A week or so.
Speaker 5: But most of the timers have multiple start times on them,
Speaker 5: so you can observe how it's irrigating and observe when
Speaker 5: it starts running down the curb, and that'll be the
Speaker 5: maximum time per cycle on it. So you can let
Speaker 5: it run at three am and six am and maybe
Speaker 5: and then nine am or something like that, and so
Speaker 5: it'll soak.
Speaker 4: Into the ground rather than run off.
Speaker 5: So you have to consider it your percolation rate in
Speaker 5: your soil also, and we have a bit of a
Speaker 5: clay and a sOliver here also. Yeah, so and it
Speaker 5: does retain water quite well. And that's one reason why
Speaker 5: we need a little bit of a dry period between irrigations,
Speaker 5: just so we don't have a problem with shallow rists
Speaker 5: and stam rot on your grass and stuff.
Speaker 4: A little bit of a science to it, but there is.
Speaker 3: That's why you went. You went to the College of Knowledge.
Speaker 5: So if you do have a slope and you do
Speaker 5: have a sprinker system, consider doing UH and do several
Speaker 5: startups on that particular circuit. A lot of them have
Speaker 5: A B, C and D circuits on their channels on
Speaker 5: them start times if you will. And you can designate
Speaker 5: that one circuit that's on a hill to go.
Speaker 4: UH A and B and the C D. But you
Speaker 4: can delete the other one from the PC and D
Speaker 4: just want of that one.
Speaker 3: So get it organized. We have our ways get it organized.
Speaker 5: Also that some of the newer timers are their internet connected.
Speaker 5: We put one in for a customer and let's say
Speaker 5: a lot of do we need to put a range
Speaker 5: and s Ring says, none of those things working just
Speaker 5: great without it. It gets data from National Weather Service
Speaker 5: and how much rain we have, and it adjusts the
Speaker 5: irrigation accordingly, accordingly, exactly.
Speaker 2: So like some people I know, well, I tell you
Speaker 2: what they got, the fountains flaring in the middle of
Speaker 2: a storm.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and also on on the on these web based
Speaker 5: the timers, you can designate.
Speaker 4: What type of soil you have and what so on.
Speaker 5: You can vary the amount of water it gets in
Speaker 5: based on what you have in it. We did a
Speaker 5: a system recently where he has two different types of
Speaker 5: grass and we put the soyser grass in one area,
Speaker 5: in permutograss in the other. And they have slightly different
Speaker 5: requirements as far as watering is concerned, so those areas
Speaker 5: can be designated separately, so you put less water on
Speaker 5: the permuta grass and more and more water perths on
Speaker 5: the Soisier grass.
Speaker 3: Makes sense because the soiser is close to the house.
Speaker 5: It's real nice and velvety and it's a pretty grass,
Speaker 5: and the permuta grasserras, it just covers things.
Speaker 2: Yeah, sut there to make sure you don't see anything exactly.
Speaker 5: A lot of times when we do a landscape. On
Speaker 5: several occasions we've done that, we're close to the house.
Speaker 5: We make it look really, really nice for this beautiful,
Speaker 5: beautiful green velvet carpet of.
Speaker 4: Vois on the other side of the driveway or somewhere
Speaker 4: up for me.
Speaker 5: Breath, save money, it saves some mighty Yeah, exactly, take
Speaker 5: a break.

Speaker 6: You know what they say, right, no pain, no gain.
Speaker 6: But what if it hurts just to walk? It's probably
Speaker 6: just you getting older, right, Well, it could be peripheral
Speaker 6: arterial disease, a serious condition often called clogged arteries in
Speaker 6: the legs.
Speaker 4: PAD.
Speaker 6: Symptoms can include cramping in your legs when you walk,
Speaker 6: but some people don't feel any symptoms at all, and
Speaker 6: PAD severely limits blood flow, making it one of the
Speaker 6: leading causes of foot and leg amputations. It also makes
Speaker 6: you up to six times more likely to die for
Speaker 6: heart disease or stroke. PAD is no walk in the
Speaker 6: park if you're over fifty, especially if you smoke or
Speaker 6: have diabetes. Talk to your doctor about getting tested for PAD.

Speaker 4: Our tree the week is a Japanese people.
Speaker 3: There you go.
Speaker 4: They're atctually several types sizes of Japanese maple there are.
Speaker 5: It's not that old big purple thing that people plant
Speaker 5: two feet away from the house. There are some smaller
Speaker 5: ones too, they are they Yeah, yeah, we have some
Speaker 5: of the nursery too. Oh yeahs again. Think it's aboutnee high.
Speaker 3: That's a small tree.
Speaker 4: It's a small tree. Yeah, what's that medium size hip
Speaker 4: high around around here?
Speaker 5: And then the Japanese that the blood good say, Japanese
Speaker 5: mample gets up to twenty feet.
Speaker 4: So I have one in my backyard that's about to
Speaker 4: be tall. All right, nice, blood good. Nice It was
Speaker 4: moved like five times.
Speaker 3: Do they leave much leaves in the fall?
Speaker 4: Do they leave much leads in the fall? Well, yeah,
Speaker 4: they don't have any leaves.
Speaker 3: I didn't think fall.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but they can have some actually, some good fall
Speaker 5: color in them too. One thing you want to watch
Speaker 5: out from the crap murles at this point.
Speaker 4: In any time, or a border. I've seen that so
Speaker 4: many times.
Speaker 5: So the boars go in and part of the tree
Speaker 5: dies out, and said, what's wrong with my tree? Then
Speaker 5: you look at it as the bar's all falling off
Speaker 5: the tree from boars girdling it.
Speaker 3: Now we have ways to stop that or supervented all together,
Speaker 3: do we not?
Speaker 4: Yes. If you do have a situation where your Japanese mable.
Speaker 5: Has some bars on it, you might want to consider
Speaker 5: using some medicloporate on it, which is a systemic. You
Speaker 5: used to use a di system but they took it
Speaker 5: off the market. But the mediclop bridge is very effective
Speaker 5: in controlling them and also keep them watered real well.
Speaker 5: Not you know, they're not swamp plants spelled me, but
Speaker 5: let them get a little bit on the dry side
Speaker 5: and make.
Speaker 4: Sure they have adequate water.
Speaker 5: Sure because the bar insecttendo attack more plants that are
Speaker 5: under stress typically than ones that are super healthy. So
Speaker 5: uh and look very closely at it looked and especially
Speaker 5: on the southwest side, looked very close. Or a bark
Speaker 5: that's peeling or something, and if you see it or
Speaker 5: on the trunk typically is round. When you cut it,
Speaker 5: cut out of sections around, but it'll have a flat
Speaker 5: spot on it, say on the southwest side or on
Speaker 5: a sunny side where we're situated, and that's the indication
Speaker 5: that there's some border damage in there.
Speaker 4: They will recover from border damage.
Speaker 5: The tree will encapsulate it and just do its way,
Speaker 5: going on its way with growing.
Speaker 4: But they can get overwhelmed.
Speaker 3: They can.
Speaker 4: So look at him real closely this time of year,
Speaker 4: look at him real.
Speaker 5: Closely, because the problem is pretty bad right at this
Speaker 5: point in time. So take a good close look at
Speaker 5: your Japanese maple and look for.
Speaker 4: Holes in it.
Speaker 5: Look for weeping, especially on the southwest side of it.
Speaker 5: Look for flat spots on the bark, on the on
Speaker 5: the trunk where it's it's not circular, and that's a
Speaker 5: sure signage.
Speaker 4: Have boards. So very simple application.
Speaker 5: You mix this step up in a bucket and portland ground,
Speaker 5: then get back out of the heat.
Speaker 4: It does pretty well.
Speaker 5: But I really like them for their leaf and their
Speaker 5: color effect and all that. And if you really want
Speaker 5: a big Japanese maple, plant it five feet away from.
Speaker 4: The house about this far. It's still kind of close.
Speaker 5: It's gonna look a little distant at first, why did
Speaker 5: you plant that thing in the middle of the front
Speaker 5: yard wine? He said, plant it out there, you know,
Speaker 5: and then you know eight years later it fits nicely.
Speaker 5: Keep it five to seven feet away from the sidewalk
Speaker 5: five to seven feet so away from the house, and
Speaker 5: it did quite well if you want to have them
Speaker 5: fairly close to there.
Speaker 4: There are some miniature varieties of the Japanese maple.
Speaker 5: There's an acer Palmatum dissectum, which gets about max t
Speaker 5: ten feet apart or so, and then there are some
Speaker 5: other ones that are too numerous. A name that Emperor's
Speaker 5: one that stays kind of small so it won't outdrove
Speaker 5: the space got it, and it likes the well drained areas.
Speaker 5: It does like some shielding from the midday sun. It
Speaker 5: will tolerate some sun pretty well, but your leaves on
Speaker 5: the top will tend to bleach a little bit, and
Speaker 5: you'll also get some winter damage from scorch sun scorch
Speaker 5: that's when it gets really really cold. That warm sun
Speaker 5: comes on there and it causes problems with the vascular
Speaker 5: with the vascular tissue on the stems.
Speaker 4: It causesus some issues.
Speaker 5: So they do need some shielding from the sun, but
Speaker 5: if anything, they need some shielding from the winter. So
Speaker 5: that's one of the biggest problems, is a sun scorch
Speaker 5: from are rapidly up and down the weather cycles in
Speaker 5: the winter. So it's a good one having the landscape.
Speaker 5: Keep in mind that it's it's crooked when you're when
Speaker 5: you're picking out a Japanese maple, don't pick out a
Speaker 5: straight one because it won't be that way, not growing lumber,
Speaker 5: growing an esthetically pleasing tree with kind of crooked branching
Speaker 5: on it. So really the ugliest one in the shop
Speaker 5: will be probably the best I can tree. I know
Speaker 5: at my house one comes out this way and it's
Speaker 5: got a branch over this way, and then it comes
Speaker 5: away out and it's even in the winter time, it's
Speaker 5: really fascinating to look. So Japanese maple is a good
Speaker 5: thing in the landscape. They do very well in areas
Speaker 5: of hillcrest and with them parked beautiful plants over there,
Speaker 5: got on the big old Japanese maples and some of
Speaker 5: the older parks of Colonial there's some down there too.
Speaker 5: They're real pretty also, so they do associate very well
Speaker 5: with other trees. Keep them away from hackberry trees because hackberry,
Speaker 5: the rich system of the hackberry tree tends to be
Speaker 5: very aggressive. It can cause some problems. So you had that,
Speaker 5: well you might consider something else, Yeah, you plants. Well,
Speaker 5: actually we've planted them in there. They've stayed up pretty
Speaker 5: well with.
Speaker 4: With hackbray trees.
Speaker 5: Maybe it's because they're toxic, but peez so. But the
Speaker 5: Jaffese maple can't tolerate a lot of heavy competition like that.
Speaker 5: All right, good plan to have in the landscape. It's
Speaker 5: a specimen interest plant.
Speaker 4: Very good.
Speaker 3: Okay, let's take a quick break.

Speaker 4: A message from the nonprofit Life Foundation.
Speaker 3: Ooh, this is what they think.
Speaker 13: Cobout me thy gun.
Speaker 2: He it's eight forty five. It's the Green Country Gardner program.
Speaker 2: I'm DoD He's Larry Glass. He's our expert. You can
Speaker 2: ask Larry a question or if you have a comment,
Speaker 2: and we can share it right here together. At one
Speaker 2: eight hundred seven nine five nine three six. That is
Speaker 2: the number, Larry.
Speaker 5: With all the rain we've had and the heat comes on,
Speaker 5: you want to get some cracking on you tomatoes, So
Speaker 5: you might want to pick them when they start to
Speaker 5: turn a little bit on the pink side, just so
Speaker 5: you don't get those nasty old multi cracks.
Speaker 3: On your Yeah, just say not a crack on the tomato.
Speaker 5: That's what I do when I have the tomatoes. We
Speaker 5: pick them just when they start to lighten up a.
Speaker 3: Little bit, stick them in the window for a while,
Speaker 3: rotating a little go in.
Speaker 4: The window cill and they do just fine.
Speaker 5: The heat is pretty bad about that, and we have
Speaker 5: a lot of moisture in the ground too, so they're
Speaker 5: soaking up a lot of water. So there's just going
Speaker 5: to be some cracking on the tomatoes. So you might
Speaker 5: want to pick them while their skins still kind of tough.
Speaker 4: Oa, right.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 5: Chinese pistache is another tree we can talk about. This
Speaker 5: is a very popular one. They grow up to about
Speaker 5: fifty feet at the most fifty foot tall the wide,
Speaker 5: and they're crooking and gangling when young, you know what,
Speaker 5: we all, but they will they'll straighten up with age though.
Speaker 5: What The good thing about this is the excellent fall color,
Speaker 5: and it's very deeply rooted too, so it'll go down
Speaker 5: and seek out new life and new civilizations rather deeply
Speaker 5: into the ground.
Speaker 2: Let's go to the phones here real quick. Hey, good morning, welcome.
Speaker 2: You're on the air with the Green Country Gardener.
Speaker 7: Why do you want to put your tomatoes in the window?
Speaker 5: Still, Well, if it's gonna get really hot like that
Speaker 5: and the ground's kind of saturated and you could get
Speaker 5: some cracking.
Speaker 7: Well, tomatoes rife and in the absence of light, okay,
Speaker 7: rife and with the sun. Oh okay, so well I've
Speaker 7: always put mine in the window sill. So well that's
Speaker 7: a no, that's an old wives tale thing.
Speaker 5: Well we're both very old wives, yes, so anyway, yeah,
Speaker 5: it's uh well put them in the dark and okay,
Speaker 5: all right, thank you appreciate it.
Speaker 3: All right, there you go. Well, I'm gonna get it
Speaker 3: when I get home. Get those tomatoes.
Speaker 4: Out the window sill.
Speaker 5: Well, the windows in the east window, so and I
Speaker 5: can see when they're ready to go.
Speaker 3: Anyway, so.
Speaker 4: There might be a little bit of an issue with cracking.
Speaker 5: So anyway, the Chinese pistache, it's very disease resistant tree,
Speaker 5: and it's dioecious libra or not. That means male and
Speaker 5: female are on a separate plant. One has male flowers,
Speaker 5: one has female flowers. So if you want to get one,
Speaker 5: if you if you want to pustache, if you don't
Speaker 5: want the female seeds, you want to pick one that's
Speaker 5: fairly mature. That's a nursery or whatever, or ask if
Speaker 5: it's a cloned one. It's just been it's just a
Speaker 5: a female for sure. Was a cloned off of a
Speaker 5: female plant? Or is it or is a seed drone
Speaker 5: typically we have clones at the nursery, so most of
Speaker 5: them are going to turn out to be male. You
Speaker 5: don't have the name seeds everywhere. Now, then what up
Speaker 5: and get through?
Speaker 3: Though, I know how that goes anywhere.
Speaker 5: I got lucky at my house when when I dugling
Speaker 5: up out of the backyard.
Speaker 4: It's made a really good tree. I mean it's the trunk.
Speaker 3: Is really pretty good size. Yeah, and it.
Speaker 5: Has no problems at all. I do need to trim
Speaker 5: it up a little bit. It looks kind of like
Speaker 5: doctor Seus's tree really.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I've seen those in the books.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I need to work on a little bit.
Speaker 17: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Anyway, just pistache is a good one. I liked it
Speaker 5: close to structures or the garage or somewhere. Does shield
Speaker 5: stuff in the afternoon from the heat. Does well around patios.
Speaker 5: But you want to make sure you get a mail
Speaker 5: plant if you're going to put it close to the house.
Speaker 4: Okay, got it. Very very few bug problems.
Speaker 5: I have seen some bore problems with pistache trees, so
Speaker 5: that's something against which they are not immune. So you
Speaker 5: want to keep them pretty healthy and fertilized. You know,
Speaker 5: they don't have to fertilize it too much, but you
Speaker 5: don't want to put them under too much stress.
Speaker 4: They'll do fine. This tree I have to do nothing too,
Speaker 4: so that's pretty good.
Speaker 2: You've got a lot of stuff in your yard. You've
Speaker 2: really not had to do anything to.
Speaker 5: Get One plant I have I did a long time ago,
Speaker 5: and it's a weeping bald cypress.
Speaker 4: And it comes up, droves up, and then.
Speaker 5: The branches just weep and hang over like this weep
Speaker 5: beautiful plant really and bald cypress gallop. It's as tough
Speaker 5: as the day as long doesn't bother them, and it's
Speaker 5: really very showy. Actually, how big of that thing yet?
Speaker 5: It's about twelve feet tall right now. It's been in
Speaker 5: there for a good twenty years. But it's weeping bald cypress.
Speaker 5: And I really do like this plant because I do
Speaker 5: nothing to it.
Speaker 3: You don't have to maintain. You have to do a trimmery. Oh.
Speaker 4: I have a few dead branches here and there.
Speaker 5: You kind of shape it up a little bit, but
Speaker 5: they don't do too much too. Wow, and it's getting
Speaker 5: fairly large.
Speaker 3: I kind of like those that are on independence.
Speaker 4: What I mean.
Speaker 5: Now, my plumb tree that's on the south side of
Speaker 5: it is starting to die out there, so they kind
Speaker 5: of run the course. But I got to pull it
Speaker 5: out then you'll be able to see it more clearly.
Speaker 5: But it's it's really very kind of an interesting study
Speaker 5: in a textural stuff in the landscape, textural appearance and
Speaker 5: differences and so on. So anyway, so there are some
Speaker 5: interesting plants like that. Another one is a ruby falls
Speaker 5: a red bud. We planted some of those in town
Speaker 5: and they are really really nice.
Speaker 4: It's a red bud.
Speaker 5: You know, it's native to the area so we can
Speaker 5: tolerate the conditions pretty well. And this one grows weeping
Speaker 5: like this, and the leaves are red and it has
Speaker 5: all these flowers on it. In the spring, it's very
Speaker 5: very showy for the most part. But August, July and
Speaker 5: August and September, red buds get a little ugly. Well
Speaker 5: it's so hot, yeah, and the leaves tend to kind
Speaker 5: of brown a little bit. But anyway, the the ruby
Speaker 5: Fall's red bud, it's very attractive tree. We planted a few.
Speaker 5: There's one in Glenua we planted. Go into his house
Speaker 5: city check out his drain. But anyway, and it just
Speaker 5: when it blooms it's just beautiful and there's nothing to it.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 5: So uh so, plants like that in the landscape, the
Speaker 5: ruby fall's red bud, the Chinese pustache, and the bold
Speaker 5: cress trees that really do very well without a lot
Speaker 5: of care.
Speaker 3: All those take pretty good sun. They take it over
Speaker 3: the Wow.
Speaker 5: So consider that, and and the Japanese ma able to
Speaker 5: consider that for specimen interest trees in the landscape, they
Speaker 5: should be highlighted somewhere, somewhere you can see them, are
Speaker 5: framed with a bed around them, or other plants beside them,
Speaker 5: or something to make them really pop out.
Speaker 4: Okay, it looks good.
Speaker 3: Good.

Speaker 19: In nineteen thirty nine, James Farley, the former chairman of
Speaker 19: the Democratic National Committee and Franklin Roosevelt's Postmaster General, traveled
Speaker 19: to Bartlesville, Oklahoma to meet with Frank Phillips. This was
Speaker 19: a special meeting, and for Frank, a bit different, as
Speaker 19: Farley did not come to visit about oil or banking.
Speaker 19: He had another purpose. He came to Bartlesville to try
Speaker 19: to convince mister Phillips to buy the New York Yankees
Speaker 19: baseball team. The former owner had died in nineteen thirty nine,
Speaker 19: and Farley and others felt that Frank had the resources
Speaker 19: necessary to buy the ball club. Already a wonderful dynasty
Speaker 19: with such greats as Babe Ruth and Lou Garrick leading
Speaker 19: the way, the Yankees were known worldwide and would certainly
Speaker 19: provide great personal and professional exposure to Frank in to
Speaker 19: Phillips Petroleum. After much consideration, Frank decided not to buy
Speaker 19: the Yankees, and despite their continued success, he never regretted
Speaker 19: that decision, as he told his friends, I just couldn't
Speaker 19: buy him. I've always been a National League man. Come

Speaker 5: and so you can kind of see in between. And
Speaker 5: about two weeks later they're growing and all this fills
Speaker 5: back in and it makes for a small mounted shrub.
Speaker 4: Very nice.
Speaker 5: But it's just this one thing. The only thing I
Speaker 5: do with them all year long is just that one cutback.
Speaker 3: That's it.
Speaker 5: And I don't cut it around the edge, just flat
Speaker 5: across the block. It may seem a little odd, but
Speaker 5: it works. But I have the windows that are about
Speaker 5: this tall, and I didn't want to cover them up.

Speaker 5: Kevin is envious, like walking back.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's got one that.

Speaker 5: a couple of thousand pounds.

Speaker 5: use some iron sulfate on them and some just good
Speaker 5: old shrub fur laser, just general purpose whatever I got.
Speaker 5: They're not too picky, and it maintains a really fairly
Speaker 5: dark green color the dwarf jop on holly. Typically it's
Speaker 5: kind of a grayish green color, and it's not as
Speaker 5: dark green as we might want it to be green too,
Speaker 5: So that's kind and what I like about this plant
Speaker 5: is not a whole lot really bothers it Now. Going
Speaker 5: into the winter, though, you want to make sure that
Speaker 5: the ground is well mulched one and number two not permitted.

Speaker 5: it's not tended to in the in.
