Re: Egg Shells


I planted a rose bush last year (Ballerina) and put both chopped up banana
peels, and coffee grounds in the hole first.. I think the rose loved it,
though it wasn't completely covered with blooms, it seemed to have no
transplant shock whatsoever..  I swear by banana peels and coffee grounds
in the compost.. but then we drink alot of coffee and alot of fruit smoothies!
