99 will be my first year for jicama, thanks to all of you for the info.  My
favorite recipes for raw jicama are both very simple.  The first is to add
to your regular recipe for cole slaw.  And in summertime, cube or julienne
and add to cut up watermelon.  What a treat.

I was given a blooming white  hyacinth recently.  Can it be planted with the
other bulbs?  When?

A first-time composter had some questions earlier in the week.  It took me
all this time to find it, but there is excellent information at
