Frequently Asked Questions

We have several dwarf ixora bushes. How would you suggest we protect them from the cold?

Ask a Master Gardener
If the plants are small enough, you can cover them with a cardboard box. If not, tent the plants with a sheet or light-weight blanket. Keep the cover off the leaves of the plant and make sure it reaches the ground. Water the plants well the morning before a freeze. The water will absorb radiant heat from the sun and release it during the night. They are indeed frost tolerant. Water them once a week and they will continue to grow new roots all winter.

How do I protect my rose bushes during the winter?

Roses FAQ
Local advice is preferred for this question, but here are some general guidelines for winter care of rose bushes for those living in colder climates. The major dangers to the plant in winter are the drying of the wind, the effect of alternate thawing and freezing cycles on the plant when winter temperatures fluctuate, the inability of the plant to take in water if the soil is frozen, and damage from the cold itself to the canes and bud union.

What about nylon bushes?

Powerflex faq
Nylon is probably the worst of all worlds. When a suspension arm moves up and down it does not move only up and down but describes an arc. This means that, for example an inner track control arm bush will be required to flex in two dimensions at the same time. In this example a metal bush will allow this movement as will a rubber or POWERFLEX bush. However a nylon bush will allow up and down movement but 100% of the arc loadings will be transferred into the arm and the chassis.

WHAT DO I DO FOR MY CHILD WITH A COLD?

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
A cold is a runny or stuffy nose caused by a virus. Average healthy children average 6 colds per year though it is not unusual to for them to get 2 colds per month during the "sick" months of winter. Nasal drainage may be clear, cloudy, yellow or green. The color of the drainage has no significance in diagnosing a bacterial infection, sinusitis or a need for antibiotics. There is no cure. Treatments are directed at increasing comfort until the viral infection runs it course.

Is it ever too cold to snow?

Frequently Asked Questions about Snow Crystals
In principle it can snow at any temperature below freezing. It snows at the South Pole even though the temperature is rarely above -40 C (-40 F). In more hospitable climates, however, it doesn't snow so much when the temperature is below around -20 C (-4 F). When a parcel of moist air cools, it starts producing snow before it gets that cold. By the time the temperature drops to -20 C, the snow has already fallen and the air is pretty dry.

When should I prune my rose bushes and how?

Garden design by Lesley Keck
A rose bush, unlike a tree, does not produce shoots which steadily increase in size every year for as long as the plant remains alive. A rose stem grows actively and bears flowers for only a few years, after which the upper portion becomes exhausted. A new shoot then appears from a bud lower down on the stem, and the part above the new shoot dies.

Why can't the Dwarf draw his sword and use it?

Lost Worlds FAQ page
The original design of the dwarf didn't include a sword. Unfortunately, we didn't make that clear to the artist, who drew it in to match some sketches we'd previously approved. Is there a particular reason why the Woman in Scale's (reprint version) ducking maneuver is a score page? I can't think of any other character who is treated as being hit when ducking. While a -6 is likely to result in no damage, it does provide one less maneuver to use against spell casters. I'll have to check that one.
