Pepper Problems #767128

Asked August 12, 2021, 6:00 PM EDT

I need some advice on what is going wrong with my garden peppers. They are growing but no blossoms. I talked to a farmer near me and he says one of his fields is doing well and another he has over watered and not doing so great. I usually grow less than 10 pepper plants. When I can, I purchase the starts from local nurseries. This year I tried starting some of my own plants as well as purchasing California Wonder starts. The plants I started are Gypsy, King of the North, King Arthur (this is the first year I have ever planted the King of the North and King Arthur varieties). We did have a late frost after I planted the peppers, all of the current plants survived. I fertilized when I planted them and I irrigate. In past years I have had good production (from gypsy and California wonder) but not this year. Any ideas as to the cause(s) and what I might do to recover, or do different next year?

Crimson King Maple with Bare Branches #760548

Asked July 07, 2021, 9:43 PM EDT

Hello, This is the second year the Crimson King Maple in my yard has not developed leaves on some of the branches. It is about one-third barren. Is there anything I can do to help the tree? There aren't leaves on the ground, not dropping leaves; the tree is not sprouting leaves in the spring. The other Crimson King Maples in the neighborhood look fine.

I heard that rock around a tree suffocates the tree. Is that true, and is it better to use mulch?

Red Maples #748805

Asked May 08, 2021, 5:54 PM EDT

Hello! I’ve been trying to do some research online. I’ve lived in the PNW for the last year, and I’m trying to find out the name of the maples that stay red all year long. They have gorgeous 6-in leaves and a pretty straight narrow trunk that kind of looks like a beech tree trunk. Any info would be helpful! Thank you!

Mahonia repens has only a few yellow flowers #743173

Asked April 07, 2021, 9:39 PM EDT

My mahonia repens is shaded by a large maple. It doesn't get much water because the sprinkler system doesn't reach it. Should I fertilize it, water it more? How can I encourage more flowers?
