Need suggestions!

I'm writing up a little garden newsletter for friends and fellow Master Gardeners. I need a nice catchy name for it. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Does it have to be about gardening?

Just the Flax, Ma'am :)

Scoop and Poop -- no, wait....

Oh, dear. That sounds like something it might get called if it's not good.

I like this one.

And use a funny little leaf for my logo? :)

Thanks for the ideas.

That made me think of "Green Grow The Garden, O". Is that a line from a song or am I mangling it?

Thanks, Bill.

Perhaps this is close?

I don't think so. For some reason I have memories of church camp and a rollicking chorus of the song sung around a campfire. I think the right phrasing might be, "Green Grow The Rushes, O".

What's the three number mix that's supposed to be the best fertilizer? It's not 10-10-10, is it?

Going in the hole to print it maybe.

I'm not even going to ask what a tree rat is.

Thanks, Michael. :*

The numbers indicate nitrogen, phosphate and potash. It's not necessarily the best fertilizer. IIRC it's a fairly common mix for gardens and lawns. You can have your soil tested to see which mix is best for the lawn and garden.

Calculating Nutrient Content To calculate the pounds of nitrogen in a 50-lb bag of 10-10-10 fertilizer, multiply 50 by 0.10. Do the same for calculating the amounts of phosphate and potash. A 50-lb bag of 10-10-10 contains a total of 15 lbs of nutrients: 5 lbs nitrogen, 5 lbs phosphate and 5 lbs potash. The remaining weight is filler, usually sand or granular limestone. Another example:

50-lb. bag of 8-0-24 fertilizer To calculate the pounds of nitrogen: Multiply 50 by .08, which equals 4. To calculate the pounds of phosphate: There is no phosphate in this bag of fertilizer. To calculate the pounds of potash: Multiply 50 by .24, which equals 12. A 50 pound bag of 8-0-24 fertilizer contains a total of 16 lbs of nutrients: 4 lbs nitrogen, 0 lbs phosphate, and 12 lbs potash. This would leave us with 34 lbs of filler.

Here in St. Louis it refers to those pesky, ballsey squirrels. Chubs and Slick are back again this year. Chubs eats all the corn and slick steals it from him whenever he gets a chance.
