I am the mother of two boys and I recently just moved to Mercer Island from Los Angeles! What a change of weather- especially for gardening. There are so many amazing new gardening possibilities here. I am renting a house right now and really need to start from scratch, but I don't want to spend too much money to make my garden not look awful as it does now. I am used to native plants of California and Succulents being the main body of plant for my gardening, but now I will have to expand my gardening horizons!

Current project

Renovating my garden for a rental home. Need ideas for how to do it without breaking the bank! Want some color, but because of the rain here, something that will hold up in partial shade with lots of water.

Type of gardener

Obsessed with Veggies!

Favorite garden activity

Weeding- call me crazy

Hi my online friend. Fig, I am having serious issues with posting things on the site. I have tried multiple of times to post on the site and the site goes haywire. I just tried to answer a posting and again the site went wanky. Is anyone working on this? Just wondering I like what your doing here and want to see your site grow. later happy growing Brandon

Brandon commented on 02/28/13

Hi I left 2 postings on my page that I hoped would be of some use to some gardeners that are newer to gardening than me. Oh I got this spam like the one below my posting I deleted it. It creeped me out sounded off to me... lol Haven't chatted with u in a long time hope u and your family are well. Keep growing. Oh one last side note have a new gardener neighbor boy it's so much fun watching someone new to it get so excited... Brandon in Michigan...

Brandon commented on 07/09/12

Hello How are you today i hope you are fine, My Name is Mercy, I will want us to be friends, for something important which I would like to share with you, and we will get to know each other better i am waiting for your responds in private email ID ( mercydiane385@yahoo.com )

marcydianÃ© commented on 06/01/12

Hi figtree! I moved to Seattle from San Diego about 15 years ago, so I know exactly what you mean. I have come to love it here because it's so easy to grow things here (except tomatoes, bell peppers, and morning glories, darn it). It's a learning experience, for sure.

TheGardenFriend commented on 03/16/12

Hiya! Like the rest, I want to thank you, too, for writing on my garden wall. Like Fernando, I'm still not clear on how to contact others in the garden but, like everything else, I'm learning. Thanks so much for your offer of help--rest assured, I need it:) Now, I have to figure out if my perennials are going to make it through the IN winters. Like you, I'm from the west coast and, even after 10y am still trying to get acclimated to a new locale. What I wouldn't give to be back in the bay area. I'm sure I'll be writing more on YOUR garden wall soon. Thank you again

leigh commented on 05/21/11

Hey Leigh! Thanks for finding me, just make sure to make the people you really want to keep in contact with your "friend" and all of your friends will show up on your logged in homepage. Think of this site as a way to share and learn information. If there is a post, or a plant page you can comment to give your gardening advice, or you can ask a question and people will respond with their answers. We hope you find a lot of stuff to look through and have a blast at Dig The Dirt and in your garden!!

FigTree replied: on 05/22/11

Lucky ME! I think I've added you the way you explained. Finally I know someone who actually KNOWS what they're talking about. I did the friend thing the way I'm pretty sure you explained it. Like with the rest of the digthedirt site, eventually I'll figure it out :) Thank you, FigTree :)

leigh replied: on 05/22/11

Hi, FigTree!!!! I was confused--I bookmarked the login page for your website but when I tried to log in, Internet said it had expired and, bummer--I thought the webpage had shut down!!!!! I'm SO glad to see everyone is still here! Thank Goodness!!! Now...I think I've sorta figured out how to write to any of my friends--all one of you:) But when I click on the "Quick Clinks" banner on the R side of the page, whatever drops down is covered by the banner advertising right below it--and I have no clue how to fix this (or the fungus my calla lilies have, either). Whatever suggestion you have or help you'd care to offer would be MOST appreciated--with the webpage, or my lilies:) Thank you, FigTree! BOY am I glad you're still here!!!!!

leigh replied: on 06/11/11

Hey! Thanks for the message! I`m trying to understand how it works :D

Fernando Fonseca commented on 04/18/11

Hi Fernando! Just browse through the site, ask questions and make sure to comment on posts that interest you! A good way to keep the conversation going... :)

FigTree replied: on 05/22/11

Yey! you are my first digger friend! Thanks for the invite :)

Virginia commented on 03/08/11

woo hoo! can't wait to hear about all your gardening :)

FigTree replied: on 03/09/11

I'm more than willing to send you a few Ledebouria socialis bulbs when it's a little warmer! Just let me know--you've got my e-mail. :)

indoorgarden_er commented on 03/03/11

wow! what a nice offer.... I just may take you up on it :)

FigTree replied: on 03/04/11

Are you still working on the renovation for the rental home? We have five rentals in Lewis, County, WA and my husband and I are both avid gardeners. We moved here almost six years ago from Fresno, CA. and do understand the drastic learning curve when moving to a totally new climate. Let me know if you still need suggestions for planting at a rental property. Also, if you go to yardshare.com and type in Fastforward in the SEARCH box, you can take a look at my landscaping progress at home.

fastforward commented on 02/15/11

cool! thank you so much for that suggestion. I will check out your website.

FigTree replied: on 02/15/11

Hi Again Figtree I can't remember how to or can't seem to "favorite" things... Is there some way to add to the site photo albums? for organizing photos? Happy growing! Brandon

Brandon commented on 02/10/11

Hi brandon! Make sure that you are logged in. That should work :) You can have your own photo albums in your personal profile (called "gallery") to upload any photos that you have taken. Is that what you're talking about? Let me know and I am happy to help you!

FigTree replied: on 02/10/11

Hello Figtree, just had to thank you for the invite. I have in recent years planted a dwarf and semi-dwarf fruit tree orchard in 7b/8 zone of NC. I have threes of stone fruit trees and apples. Also, trying my hand at brambles and blueberries, too. I love to plant and watch nature take me for a ride. Thanks again, Bill

wellingtonbill commented on 01/31/11

so cool- would love to hear how the fruit does. I have just started growing vegetables this past year and it was a blast. Can't wait for the season to start! I am in zone 7a, but the weather here has been colder than usual so no growing this winter. Hope to keep in touch!

FigTree replied: on 01/31/11

Hi FigTree! I writing just because I planted a fig tree this year! A 'Brown Turkey Fig'. I think that's a common one in Alabama. Hope your garden is growing well! ~Sprout

Sprout commented on 01/07/11

Just saw this! Hi... SO cool a Fig tree... I need one of those for sure, but don't know how well it would do in the Pacific Northwest. I have am big on the vegetable gardening and can't get enough flowers. Take care!

FigTree replied: on 01/31/11

Hey figtree! Are all of those pictures in your blog area of the site yours?! There are some AWESOME pics in there... I think I speak for all of us (I have no idea if I'm actually speaking for any of us), when I say, "Please give us more!" kdicus

kdicus commented on 12/15/10

howdy! Some but not all are mine- chief cultivator is the best photographer and he really has the most amazing garden... check out this post he did for serious inspiration :) http://www.digthedirt.com/contributions/6101-Fall-Color-in-My-Garden

FigTree replied: on 12/16/10

Go here, http://www.wanativeorchids.com/nativeorchids.html. There are 42 native orchids in Washington state, I love species, not so much the big gaudy ones. I should have some clever screen name like yours. Oh, btw, I have 3 fig trees at my house. :)

Greg commented on 11/07/10

Gardening on Mercer Island is easy, and I am sure several people have told you how to do it. Or, maybe driving around you have seen it. Start with the local evergreen berry [black berry] to most people. Where in California were you living?

rramsmate commented on 09/14/10

Oh yeah the blackberry bushes are EVERYWHERE! We love to pick them :) Los Angeles was a crazy place to live, but really fun!

FigTree replied: on 09/14/10

As soon as I get the flower gardening down, I'm going to try out some veggies too! And Mercer Island is beautiful! My parents live in Federway Way, WA.

SYDrews commented on 08/31/10

Hi SYDrews... it is beautiful here and the gardening is insane! Love it. It is a tiny bit rainy for my taste, but I am slowly getting used to it!

FigTree replied: on 09/14/10

Thanks so much for your comment! Congrats on that move from LA. I'm in California and its 105 degrees in the shade today. So in essence you know we need to keep planting to keep the trees beautiful as well as our planet. I've got a great idea for your garden which you have can indoors as well as out. Here is the Garden Specialist's webpage-- www.Tricker.com. GoodLuck & God Bless! Ms.Sandy

MsSandy commented on 06/30/10

Hey Fig Tree! I'm back on digthedirt and out of the little shop front (took up all my time and "over-extended"!) I need to be diggin and mktg more! Not sitting in a shop 'waiting' for customers! Anyhow, wanted to touch base and hope to stay in touch here at digthedirt AND facebook (yikes!). No, all will be and is fine! And I have to "call you crazy" - Weeding? Really your favorite activity? Mine's finding or taking time out to have tea time in the garden!! We couldn't be further apart in the "favorites" department!! Funny! Check out the pictures I posted today of my late cousin's grand-daughter on facebook!! Today was one of those VERY, VERY GIRLS-KIND-OF-DAY!! I took care of her when 11 months old for 2.5 wks and have kept up relations - she's now "6"! AND Wow! what a "Tea Party" we had her at "Alice's Wonderland"!! Too Fun playing dress-up at (almost 60yrs old!! Whoa!) Hope all's well w/you and your little cuties - oh and your cute husband too?!?! Love and 'Hugs' to all. faerie garden PS. tomorrow's play outside at the park and diggin'in garden w/all the faeries! Ha! But I think we might wear our over-alls - not pearls!! I'll keep in touch (at least that's the plan - never know exactly what's 'round the next bend!)

faerie garden commented on 06/29/10

so glad to see you back here and I hope everything is going well... sounds like you're having a great time and doing a ton of fun things for the summer! It is weird how time flies.... xo figtree

FigTree replied: on 06/29/10

Hey Kaarina! Wondering if you can help me with something maybe a bit out of the ordinary- I'm trying to figure out how I can grow a lemon tree in Trinidad. It's lime overload here but no lemons and I need my lemons for my iced tea. I cannot really bring a lemon into the country (yes, I fear immigration). I think if I take the seeds from a lemon they will be too dry by the time I get them back to Trinidad. I cannot find any nursery that will sell seeds. I just joined digthedirt hoping I might be able to figure this out! Hope everyone is well! xo mere

merepatten commented on 06/24/10

you are such a rockstar!!! Why don't they grow lemons there?? Wonder if there is a fly that is attracted to the lemons that make it unsafe to grow...? I am going to put this ? out to the community and see what happens :) You doing well otherwise?

FigTree replied: on 06/24/10

â€œEurekaâ€ variety of lemons are the only ones that are disease resistant in Trinidad. Nice place, haven't been there in about 20 years.

rramsmate replied: on 09/14/10

I just wanted to pass along info for an iconic Seattle yearly event. The Bastyr Herb Fair is happening tomorrow, June 5th, between 10-5. I will be going to take in some of the lectures, but mostly to walk around, see the herbs, and maybe buy some heirloom plants. You can check out more info on Bastyr's website at http://www.bastyr.edu/news/news.asp?NewsID=1948. ~Meg Ellison

PurpleSage commented on 06/04/10

hey there thanks for the info... next time there is an event you can put it in a post and it will go out to the whole community! Let me know if you have ?'s about how to do this!

FigTree replied: on 06/08/10

Hey FigTree... its Alaska finally getting on the site! Let me get through school and I'll get some picks up of my little garden... Look forward to seeing the Davis family during the next BGI trip down... next week! All my best to you, the boys, and Justin. Greg

Birch Tree commented on 05/27/10

Howdy! Pumped to see you here- thanks :) Can't wait to see you- I think Justin is siked for a BGI trip away from the fam :)

FigTree replied: on 06/01/10

FigTree - I just finally signed up last night. Its me Gabe Fertman (BGI)- under my Avatar name Ripe79 (as in - man I smell ripe not the plants are ripe) Okay I will get more stuff uploaded when I have time

Ripe79 commented on 05/26/10

yay! Finally :) Thanks for being here you are a rockstar!

FigTree replied: on 05/26/10

You lucky girl! I miss Washington so much. We lived at Fort Lewis for three years (husband was military). My favorite place was Gig Harbor! I have friends still who live in Purdy. I miss the weather like you wouldn't believe! We are currently in AZ. My husband was sent here after he got out of the Army (this is our home of record). I cried the day we got on the plane to leave WA! I loved it so much. We have discussed moving there or to Maine. Right now the location we chose is Maine. If we move there and for some reason don't like it, after I finish my college (must attend in Maine and Boston, Mass.) then I am certain we will find ourselves back in WA! I miss rain!!! I am planting succulents here too, although I miss fuchsias, tulips, daffodils, gladiolus and hollyhocks and ferns!!! Enjoy your new home! Have you made it to the Tacoma zoo? they have a garden of flowers (its a huge walk through thing with a canopy of flowers, and some of the largest flowers I have ever seen in my life. You should go! That is free, and the aquarium at the zoo is worth the trip! I am jealous! There are a lot of great co-ops up there too, check those out for sure! I am renting as well. I know what you mean about wanting to do things but having to keep it to a minimum of cost since its a rental and you don't necessarily know how long you will be there to enjoy it. Its nice to "meet" you! Jen

gardengirl77 commented on 05/22/10

So funny how we miss certain things- I miss my succulents more than you could ever know! WA is growing on me, but I am not so sure about the slugs- YUCK! I really like it here and my kids seem very happy as well- so much to do and the people are so nice... So happy to "meet" you too :)

FigTree replied: on 05/24/10

I just found your comment on the bracket fungus picture... thery're usually a good thing, most of the time they are on old wood & they help speed up the degeneration of dead stumps and dying trees

terraforms commented on 05/08/10

ahhh- so that is what I am seeing in the forest when a tree is decomposing...! Thanks- it's a very cool picture :)

FigTree replied: on 05/08/10

Great chgs! Much Thanks! faerie garden

faerie garden commented on 04/12/10

anytime :)

FigTree replied: on 04/12/10

I don't know if you remember me, but you were in Raleigh, NC last summer for some conference, we met while you were renting a car. It took me a while to finally join (I was out of the country) but here I am! I've been looking at some of the stuff on the site and it's really cool! Can't wait to explore it more! Hope everything is well!

lupinlover commented on 04/10/10

howdy! so glad to see you here and yes i completely remember you! PLease let me know if you have any questions or issues with the site. things are getting redesigned all the time, so please give me feedback about it! The best way to get a question answered is to ask a question! To do that, go to your personal profile page (by clicking the upper right hand button on your "name" and then click on the "contributions" tab- when you write just scroll down on the bar that says what type it is: a question, or a post. Hope you get all your gardening questions answered!

FigTree replied: on 04/11/10

Hey, we want to hear about roasting your own coffee beans :-)

chief cultivator commented on 04/06/10

Just putting it out there - Tuesday nights some friends and I get together for a weekly "stitch n bitch", and gardening is usually a big topic. Birdfarm is there too, and some other stragglers. If you ever want to come talk about the site, or just gardening, while having a drink, let me know!

flush puppy commented on 03/03/10

that sounds like fun! Lemme know where you guys are doing it and I'll try to get there-- my husband is in business school so I have a lot of conflicts with that and the kids... I would love to talk gardening while drinking though!

FigTree replied: on 03/04/10

Hi there - I'm wondering if there are forums on this site? Would be handy...

flush puppy commented on 03/01/10

great feedback! thank you... we have talked about forums on the site, but decided to use "groups" instead- we felt like it would be easier to share information and have posts, q & a, members, galleries all in one place. What do you like better about the forums on other sites? Really appreciate you bringing it up.

FigTree replied: on 03/01/10

It's interesting to read about other people's issues and solutions and projects/progress, especially if it's something I hadn't considered. ;) I haven't really explored the Groups things much.

flush puppy replied: on 03/01/10

Hey, I started a new group - check it out - NSGA. You're kinda North Seattle, in relation to say, Mexico. :)

flush puppy replied: on 03/01/10

a good way to start a "forum" is to make a contribution/post and tag it to related categories (vegetable gardening, sustainable living etc.), and to whatever group your contribution may be related to. We found that in traditional forums ideas get lost and that they are hard to search through, so this site is trying to redesign the way people share their information. Whenever you create a "contribution", a "post", or ask a question you are basically starting a conversation with other members. I hope this helps and PLEASE keep the feedback coming- you don't know how much it helps! Yes, I am joining your group for sure!!! YAY...

FigTree replied: on 03/01/10

Excellent. One question about Groups - are members notified of new posts?

flush puppy replied: on 03/01/10

again- excellent question and the answer is no, but am trying to get that into development ASAP. Members are notified when you post a comment to the wall, so if you would like to notify members of a post you have written, for now you can write "hey dude, check out my new post!" and then they will know to go to the group page--- I know it is tedious right now, but we are redesigning a lot of stuff, seeing what works, what doesn't, so please bear with us! I am sending this on to chief cultivator and letting him know this would be helpful for groups.. thank you!!!

FigTree replied: on 03/03/10

Hey, FigTree. You know me. Hint: you suggested that cookbook to M for my Xmas present. Your lovely husband prodded me into finally joining and getting my rear in gear on the garden. I don't know how to message someone except to write on their garden wall, so HELLO! Fun site! I've even taken a few photos I'll upload soon.

Blueberries4Sal commented on 02/24/10

I hear you are quite the berry expert! Hope we get to see all of them and learn about growing berries as I know absolutely nothing... and yes, you can write on my wall, any of my posts and I'll see it. Ummm... do you LOVE your new cookbook? I have made about a billion of the recipes -- thai pumpkin soup is actually on this site I think--- it was phenom. I am super sad that you're not in Justin's group anymore :( hope it's working out better for you though!

dig the dirt editor replied: on 02/25/10

Loved your photo of the basil. I take pictures too, but never of the vegetables... I will be able to see them differently this year after seeing your shot.

Kim commented on 02/21/10

it's always fun to have a little record of the things you grow!

green juice commented on 01/23/10

thanks green juice! are you going to show us some pictures of your garden? i think you might be a sustainability dude... anything going on in agriculture or in growing of vegetables??

FigTree replied: on 01/23/10

What lovely photos you have!

hellaD commented on 11/11/09

Two year drought, record number of days above 109 degrees (in the shade)! How can I keep my banana plants alive?

texasthistle commented on 11/06/09

Oh geez! That is a good question. I am going to put it out to the members on the front page and get all their advice. We have lots of great people from Texas! Thanks for the question and I hope we can help!

FigTree replied: on 11/06/09

I have almost eliminated weeding in my garden by making the rows wide enough to get the tiller between, then when the plants come up, put newspaper around them it helps keep the weeds down and is biodegradable

FUNEFARM commented on 11/03/09

that's why i love this site- learn something new every day!!! thanks funefarm :)

FigTree replied: on 11/03/09

Thanks Fig, you should taste the oranges! I walk up grab a few and juice! Waiting for them...... to harvest again. The best part they smell like oranges. The tangerines my husband loves! I feel so spoiled to have all these great fruit trees. One nice thing about California.

Thyme commented on 11/03/09

Hey Kaa, Check this out, the garden that climbs stairs... awesome! http://dirt.asla.org/2009/10/29/the-garden-that-climbs-stairs/

cajunbarry commented on 10/30/09

so cool- thanks cajun!

FigTree replied: on 11/03/09

FigTree, for some time, I've had some trouble opening plant files and gallery pictures. I get the message, "We're sorry, but something went wrong." It seems to be files that I or someone else has put a star-rating and comments on.

Daylilyjoy commented on 10/24/09

Thanks so much- I will let our developer know these problems- thank you for letting me know! Very helpful. :)

FigTree replied: on 11/03/09

Hey DLJ- has it been worked out yet? I informed our developer, but can't tell if there is still something wrong or not. Please let me know :)

FigTree replied: on 11/07/09

I still can't open any of the plant files on the home page that have comments or my own plant "favorites" that have been commented on. If there are no comments or ratings, it comes up. The files will also come up if I am not logged in, but access is limited if I'm not logged in. This is how I noticed that the ones with comments seem to be the problem.

Daylilyjoy replied: on 11/08/09

Yes, we will be open at Mesogeo from 11 to 5 Sunday. Look forward to seeing you. They say there will be sun. We have reason to believe them. Best, Terry

Mesogeo commented on 10/03/09

That is great! sun!!!!! Better get it while we still can :) We will try and make it over there tomorrow- really can't wait to see it. I was looking at your blog and the pictures are unbelievable! That huge tree... wow- you have to link your profile up with your blog so people can click to it!

FigTree replied: on 10/03/09

so sorry I couldn't get there- has to be another time :( Got caught at the tour of Heronswood. Very cool place, but will make it there next time I am on Bainbridge island

FigTree replied: on 10/05/09

I have posted my photos but should have a picture of the kids playing baseball in the yard this summer.

teetee the gardner commented on 09/30/09

Weeding is your favorite garden activity?!!!! Okay, I'm calling you crazy! But you can come down to Florida anytime you like to visit my garden!

Daylilyjoy commented on 09/30/09

you know, I have gotten that offer a lot! :) Maybe I should start taking people up on it and do a world wide tour of weeding!

FigTree replied: on 09/30/09

Hi Kaarina. We met at the house on the water, you and Cliff and I were chatting. Loving the site!

M A Newcomer commented on 09/29/09

OH!!!!! It's you!!!! You loved my shoes right? So funny, I have been trying to find them online cuz so many people asked me about them and thought I would tweet about them to GWA :) SO happy you're here! If you have any suggestions on the site we would love to hear them as it is still under construction a bit.

FigTree replied: on 09/29/09

YES! You with the wonderful shoes! Find them now!

M A Newcomer replied: on 09/29/09

yes ma'am! i am on it!

FigTree replied: on 09/30/09

Hi Fig Tree, You wrote me a message and I accidentally deleted...I think. Sorry! Yes. Terrain is in our area. It is a great store. I also love Waterloo. It is another very good garden center in Philly! II don't get to Terrain that often b/c it isn't all that close to where I live. However, I would recommend Waterloo to Philly gardeners. The plant stock is always healthy and the staff is awesome! Haven't come across any other garden centers in the area that really wow me though.

Hydrangea Girl commented on 09/29/09

loved meeting you in Raleigh!

Flowergardengirl commented on 09/29/09

Hey FGG- we are trying to work out kinks in our GWA group, but will eventually invite everyone that was there- wouldn't that be fun? Just added your blog to our links page- take a look and let me know if it represents you well :)

FigTree replied: on 09/30/09

I would imagine in time that this site will have enough database to answer your question about what to grow---but for now---you can visit the Proven Winners site and plug in your info and sun requirements. You can do raised beds less expensively if your dirt needs a lot of amending. You can even cut the bottom out of a big trash can and grow so much stuff in it that you won't see the can----or.....spray paint the can with that new sandstone paint on the market right now. Or......fly me out there and I'll do it for you :)

Flowergardengirl commented on 09/28/09

I knew if I got you here you wo7uld have amazing ideas :) We are doing raised beds for veggies and signing up with a company that delivers a flat of seedlings to your door- right vegetables for the right time of year. Isn't that rockin? What is sandstone paint?

FigTree replied: on 09/29/09

Aww, thank you. I do like it here. Afraid I'm missing out on some good topics but I hear that's being worked on. Sandstone paint is paint with sand in it to give it texture. ---Can't believe you are getting a flat of veges. So awesome. Look at this site for companion planting which will help with pest and disease. I'm not plugging this site but it's got good info. http://www.ghorganics.com/page2.html Cathy @ Outdoors In has some excellent information on fertilizing stuff. I just love her. http://outdoorsin.wordpress.com/2009/05/05/fertilizers-part-2/ Ok, go read and report back ;)

Flowergardengirl replied: on 09/29/09

Hello Fig tree, I have a few fig trees myself. I love figs. I also love the Seattle area. My son graduated from Seattle Pacific University. I'm in need of a Seattle fix bad!

pacificstar commented on 09/24/09

Come visit! The gardens are amazing up here!

FigTree replied: on 09/29/09

Hey Fig! I see that you moved from Hollywood! Are you still acting? I love the Seattle area climate for gardening... you guys are lucky. I am sure your nieces and nephews are happy having first cousins close...We were rather lucky this weekend to get 5" of rain after a two-year drought. The desert bloomed yesterday here in Austin! Happy fall gardening, Barry 'Appleseed' Landry

cajunbarry commented on 09/14/09

So siked for the rain for you guys! Hear it's been awful... Not acting anymore- just digging the dirt!!! All day long :)

FigTree replied: on 09/15/09

Ok - secret confessions - I like weeding too....good thing because my front bed is in need of it! Good luck with the garden renovation project!

gardengirl commented on 09/11/09

Thanks! Going to need all the help I can get- it's pretty bad. Thinking of vegetable beds in the spring! Watch for before and after pictures :)
