They'll do fine. If you wanted to help them take those big rocks up, build a little semicircle with them, fill that with some nice loose garden/top soil, and plant the roses in that. IE make a little...

Where are you located?

One is, I believe, a hardy hibiscus. The one with woody stems but with the stalks not coming from them. It dies back to the ground each year and those wood leftovers can be removed. It is also a late...

So there is a gap between the wall and the fence?

Bamboo would fill it nicely, asiatic lilies would do so seasonally. Many shrubs would work eventually. What is your goal with the spot?

Well I have my big martha stewart sized garden, see my recent post.

I also got a new tractor. It is a 25hp compact mahindra tractor,...

What is your goal? You say its too small, okay... so you want something bigger?

My first advice is this:

1. Get rid of your square borders. Running a garden 3 feet in a square off your...

You can grow raspberries in containers, many do this because they spread otherwise and can be invasive in a garden.

Watering needs will depend on the quality of your soil (how much water it...

I think it should work, given time these trees can bounce back from wind or snow damage and start growing straight again

I would love a small tractor for tilling and earth moving once I Get my big epic martha-stewart size veggie garden.

Sorry, Christmas season and all that, not much gardening going on when the yard is full of snow

Leaves feed fruit production, I don't see why you would want to trim off leaves at all - unless it was done for disease reasons. Either to increase airflow or remove foliage too close to the soil to...

another idea, get into beekeeping, get free honey, and locate the hive over there.

barberry has bad smelling flowers, but they do not last.

However, there is a whole group of plants with putrid flowers (that is the word you want to search for, putrid). Many of them are tropical...

Some wasps (yellow jackets) will eat out of pears, also the regular rodent type critters will do it as well. Even while they're still on the tree.

And if you have them in a little covered tray, take the cover off to let some humidity out. They're essentially rotting while alive in that high humid environment, like gangrene for plants.

Very few fruit trees do good in containers as they need room. There are specifically designed dwarf citrus that can do good in containers, but you should expect a few years before you get any yield....

With scapes that tall they might be ditch lilies. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemerocallis_fulva

Which makes it slightly different from other daylilies, namely it spreads more and becomes a...

You could try hand pollinating with a q-tip.

There is such a thing as too much mulch, especially grass clippings.

Mulch can get matted and prevent water from penetrating the soil, it can also harbor pests.

Grass is particularly prone to...

They eat a ton, they will mow down a garden. But if you're okay with that, or think you have it under control (I've had them get inside of fencing) then no, they aren't harmful, just big fat bunny...

I think so. Most small trees only root down 12 inches anyways. A larger concern will be water, since containers dry out fast, and japanese maples seem to respirate a lot in the heat. Make sure it...

peat moss isn't something you need to use.

You're fine still for planting corn, though corn is not an easy crop for beginners, or people with virgin soil.

It is a challenge to turn grass into...

You won't be able to grow most of your list.

Your burlap sack idea will not work because it will drain too much and dry out too fast and the plants will not get enough water.

Many herbs like...

If you don't want to buy soil you need to make it, to make it you use compost. So you need to make a lot of compost, then put it on your soil.

Do not rake after watering, also I wouldn't worry about tamping down. Watering the soil will compress it enough. Raking prior to watering might have been a good idea, but not after. Germination could...
