SAVE THE BIRDS: TURN OFF YOUR LIGHTS
Therese Ciesinski, GardenSMART
They fly at night, over shopping centers, parking lots, and airports. They fly over cities and highways studded with streetlights. They fly over office buildings that stay lit even after everyone has left. They fly through nights that seems black to us, but unnaturally bright to them. They’re migrating birds. And all that light confuses them.

BEAUTIFUL PEPPERS!
Pamela Crawford
If you can only grow one pepper, make it the banana pepper. Although I grew these peppers to eat, they ended up looking almost too good to eat! Banana peppers have a mild, but slightly tangy taste. I paired this planting with mums for color contrast. Here's how to create this combo.

Melinda Myers
Add a burst of fresh color to the landscape with mums. This traditional fall flower is still a favorite of many. They come in a wide range of colors and provide weeks of floral beauty. Mums are great in containers, the garden, and cut flower bouquets. Fall just wouldn’t be the same without them.
