Alpine skiing. Alpine lake. Alpine forest. Alpine lodging. How about Alpine golf? Even better, how about a trip for both you and the wife?
Q: Do desert-adapted shrubs like Texas rangers, cassias and others benefit from adding sulfur to the soil? Will they perform better in a pH around 7.5 as opposed to 8?

Austin, a formerly booming mining town founded in 1862, is home to fewer than 400 people today. Yet, it’s one of the best-preserved early mining towns in Nevada and well worth a visit by city dwellers from the state’s southern end.
I noticed what appears to be some kind of white fuzz on my pear tree’s leaves.
Q: I attached a couple of pictures of my peach tree. It’s growing like gangbusters (I did a pretty good job pruning it back after your class), but something is going on with it because it’s dropping leaves and has this brown-leaf-edges thing going on. It had major growth (about 3 feet) after I harvested the peaches this month. Thank you for any help you can give.
Question: How do I separate the worms from my compost? I bought 1,000 worms from a worm farm online. They have multiplied into the zillions, but I don’t want to give them to my neighbors when I give away the compost. Is there an easy way to separate worms from compost?

Q: I can’t get my Bermuda grass lawn to look good. I would like it more like a golf course grass. I think one of my problems has been mowing too low, believing it would green up if I did this. During the past two weeks I’ve raised the height of my mower and fertilized. It is looking much better, but it probably needs another week of growing. I’m getting small patches of darker green grass with a wider leaf. I think this is what they call Poa. There’s probably little I can do to stop this Poa weed.
