Re: Speaking of Trellises

Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

Sorry Bill, I must have missed the discussion about the trellised  yellow 
squash in the begining.  Was that regular crookneck or straight neck plain ol 
yellow squash or was it a special kind?  That's an amazing picture you drew 
in my mind.  I am hoping to grow as many varieties of squash vertically this 
year, but I'm not sure which kind will and which won't(except I tried it with 
zuccini one year in a cage and it didn't like it at all)trellis.  I'd 
appreciate any advice on this.
Sorry to dump two subjects under one heading: this is even off veggies, but I 
think many of you may be as good with flowers and veggies.  I have planted a 
butterfly bush two years in a row and they do well from spring to fall and in 
the next spring they are a stick.  They were pruchased at a local nursery and 
are supposed to be hardy here in Utah.  Should I be covering them in the 
winter.  Should I feed them something special.  I have had the same problem 
with snowball bushes and hydranga's.   After 4 attempts I have a snowball 
bush that made it through the winter and is blooming as we speak--so to 
speak.  Also bleeding hearts bite the dust two.  Does anyone see a pattern 
here--the ph of my soil?  They were all planted in appropriate light, but the 
soil is clay and top soil with a lost of orgainic matter.
Just one more thing:  I want to thank all of you who have given me 
information in the past---I have not alway acknowledged it , but I am  very 
grateful.  I also enjoy each of your varried personalities, humors and 
generous spirits.
Hat's all(isn't it enough)for now,
Bonnie Christensen Mt. zone5
