Extension agent - I have several hundred square feet of Scilla. What is the best way to eradicate it? - Jack Klinker

Do you provide any native seeds or starts (prairie grass?) for purchase?

Are there brands of grass seed that you recommend? I typically buy Superior grass seed from Fleet Farm because I have a large 3 acre lawn and it is less expensive than most of the name brands. I need a good amount of both shade seed and sun & shade seed and am looking for the best bang for the buck. Thank you!

I was away and when I came home last week, my arborvitae was damaged I believe from wind storms. There are two large limbs at the bottom that have split from the main trunk as seen in photos. Should I just remove the damaged branches and will they regrow? It's upsetting since it will leave a large gap in the tree structure. Thanks!

My two Norweigan Pines have browning needles at the ends of the branch and appear to be making their way inwards. I don’t believe it is needlecast, but maybe some virus or cold wind damage from the Winter. However, this issue starting showing up last Fall. Could you help me to diagnose what’s going on and possibly some direction. So far I have been told to prune the bad limbs and treat with a fungicide.

They appear to be some kind of burrow. When I scrape off the pile, there is a little hole between 5/16" and 3/8" going down into the ground. I've tried digging some up but never can find anything. Sometimes it looks like pine needles have been pulled down into the hole.

Hello, I have 2 inkberry hollies-Densa. They are about 4-5 years old. Both have lost most of their leaves. Thought it was deer damage, but don't think so. Can you please tell me what is the best way to care for these shrubs. I've looked up info and I'm getting conflicting info. This form will not accept my pictures. I've tried doing this on my IPhone but that will not accept pics either. Can I send them through another way?

How to control azalea scale

Hi, I had to remove a rose bush in November 2022 as it had contracted Rose Rosette Disease the year prior and had died from it. I believe the neighbor's rose bushes that it got it from have been removed (but I can't really know for certain). I have no other roses. There has been nothing planted in this area for the last 18 months. I just bought a new rose bush to replace the lost one and would like to plant it in the same spot as it is right in front of my house on a public sidewalk. Is it safe to plant this new rose bush there? Or is the virus still in the soil? Thank you!
