The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
'My emotions around the pandemic became so tightly tied up in these plants.”
when my gardenias were failing, there was definitely an apex breaking point one afternoon involving me aggressively digging up, replacing soil, and adding epsom salt
as though my life depended on it
if anyone has any advice on small evergreen shrubs that can survive a cold winter, i am all ears
not boxwoods though, those are too bleh
i have a few african boxwoods that have done well for years but we don't have a cold climate..

Well, great. Now my hot water heater is working. Thursday night i couldnt light the pilot. I tried again yesterday and it worked but didnt get hot water until this morning.
So, the thing is 15 years old, and ive been dealing with poor hot water pressure for a long time. Its only a matter of time before it completely fails and im wondering if I should just go ahead with the replacement and installation before its winter time.

Yeah, I would. You got an extra 3-5 years of borrowed time on it.

make sure you give a nice mulch cover over the base of them, plus a couple of options:
* cover them with burlap before winter hits + cross your fingers * spray them with an anti-dessicant spray before winter + cross your fingers
i ordered some gem box hollies. we'll see if they can handle it
