Very nice Arif. Great idea for a compost bin. I like your hanging pots too.

Smiling You asked me what I was doing with those materials. Yesterday I made a net for my Asparagus fern to climb on with thin GI wire. At least my garden cannot make do without these two things.

Thumbs up Great projects to work on. You'll have to show us a picture of the net once your plant starts growing on it.

gg5 said:I would spray some environmentally OK soap on them, I've never heard of them hurting semps Shrug!
And now another semp to add to my list, I've seen this one on a couple websites, but your is an amazing color! Very cool!
I tip my hat to you.


I made a concoction of water, lime juice, and dishwashing liguid and testing it. Seems to paralyze them or either it kills them and they never move. Maria Laach definitely is a pretty cool looking Semp.

Bev Thumbs up .

Have you actually tried it before? I was worried it would harm the plant. Whatever is in the can is pretty cold and it comes out sometimes when I use it on my keyboard.
