From what I understand Dutch White Clover was included in all popular grass seed pre WW2. Monoculture residential lawns are a more modern invention. The clover is definitely better for the bee population!
Has any of the grass where you see this actually died or is it just this ugly stuff on the blades?
It's either powdery mildew or slime mold
Not quite gardening(although it has done well this year) but God blessed my bees. For the first time in at least four years our bees produced honey. We just bottled fourteen quarts from one honey super.
My Bermuda grass after 3” of rain this week.
Question, I happened to spot this renegade tree at about 3000' in the Cohutta Mountains in northwest Georgia. It was in a protected ravine surrounded by rhododendrons. I'm thinking its a Fraser Fir, but I couldn't get close enough to really get a better look. Any thoughts?
Looks like a Hemlock as the branches look flat vs rounded. It's hard picture to tell, but also the Elevation and location. Elevation is too low / and the location too far south for Frasier Fir.
Rare find if it’s hemlock still. The southeastern population is all but extinct due to the woody adelgid.
Maybe it is, but I've seen and own hemlocks, and their branches are usually more droopy, and their foliage is usually darker. You're absolutely right about it being to low for a fir. There are still a ton of hemlocks in this area, I mean a ton. They all look they are putting out new growth too, yet still rough looking.
A group of people planted some fraser firs in the cohuttas years ago on Bald Mtn. A few have spread over the years.
See I knew someone here would have an explanation. Hemlocks are my favorite tree and can usually spot one a mile away, this caught me off guard, and I literally stopped to do a double take. I just doublechecked, I was indeed on Bald Mountain when I took this photo.
I noticed them years ago and had to ask around because I knew they weren’t native. Some old local told me. I always take a few twigs and use them as air freshener in my truck when I go up there to pick ramps.
