Best Blog Scoops's insight:

I am in the process of removing all of my grass and replacing it with native Florida plants that are drought resistant. The Citrus Lantana is on my list to buy and plant!

People seem to want pristine grass has which requires harmful weed killers and fertilizer. And here's the clincher, the grass that serves no useful purpose has been the culprit of damaging our water ways.

My husband and I bought the home he was raised in, his family moved to Merritt Island in the 1970's. The waterways were filled with crabs and fish, they would set crab traps for dinner. But rain washed the weed killer and fertilizer into the canals and river.

I would love to see anyone who lives on a navigable get rid of their grass or be okay with letting it grow natural with out pesticides.

Me, our grass is on it's way out. Going all natural with walk ways and native Florida plants. Drop a comment with your thoughts!

I don’t like using pesticides so weeding is a chore during the summer months. I go out very early in the morning when the temps are cooler. What’s your weeding regimen?

Best Blog Scoops's insight:

Ever since I started using the Yuka App, I am a bit neurotic about food. I started a vegetable garden and it’s beginning to flourish. The cost of food is over the top and so much of it is loaded with pesticides and preservatives. It’s worth the time and effort to grow your own veggie garden!

If you buy a basic, plane Jane rain barrel, make sure you have a spout to remove the water. My husband got a great deal on a rain barrel, set it up and it's full of rain water. The problem, we have no way to access the water. Next time I am getting a fancy rain barrel with a built in spout that's featured in the For The Yard Collection on my Amazon Store. Do you have a way to collect the rain?

Best Blog Scoops's insight:

“What, exactly, makes a gazebo, well, a gazebo? As gardening guru Patrick Taylor defines it in the Oxford Companion to the Garden, a gazebo is an “ornamental building of slightly uncertain character, without the gravitas of a temple nor with the frivolity of something more whimsical.”
