Q: We are trying to establish native shrubs and trees that grow quickly.  We also have a very long hillside for groundcovers and need some sort of grass that will grow under a Ponderosa Pine.  Any suggestions?

Q: I have a dwarf Meyer lemon tree that is five years old. It grows in a large pot on our SW patio. The first four years the tree produced lemons—up to 36 lemons one season. The past two seasons the tree produced many flowers - but the flowers dropped off & therefore there was no fruit. The leaves are also curled and some of them yellow. I have given it citrus fertilizer and yet, this seems to make the situation worse. What do you advise?
