I thought a look ahead at the world of golf in Las Vegas for 2013 would be appropriate. The world did not end in December as some thought the Mayans predicted, and we had one foot dangling in thin air with the fiscal cliff. What’s next? A zombie uprising?
Question: Regarding using house water for plants: Is it safe to use reverse osmosis water as compared to tap water?
If you think listeners from Summerlin and its immediate environs aren’t tuned into what the guy on the radio is saying, in between his playing those smooth, golden oldies, then you’re in for quite a shock.

While the native California fan palm (Washingtonia filifera) can be found in several areas in California, including Joshua Tree National Park and near Palm Springs, there is one hidden spot in Arizona where it also can be found.
Question: I have a large fig tree that gives me small green figs, and that is all I get. I think the problem is not enough water, as you said. I also saw the picture of cuttings to grow another tree. Can I do that, or should I buy a second tree? What about pruning? Is this a good time?
I bet the question on everybody’s mind right now is: What the heck do I get the golfer in my life for Christmas? OK, maybe some folks are wondering that.
