Another way to make unbelievably good beef roasts is to pour a can of coke over a roast, top with onion soup mix and cook on high all day in the crock pot. Its so tender, it falls apart and tastes great.

Growing Sunflowers from Seedlings?

Cutting Back a Yellow Trumpet Vine?
A trumpet vine will not bloom until it is 7 years old. I have to agree with Kathy though, it is not a good plant unless you have a very strong trellis. Plus, this plant will send up shoots all over your yard. I too pulled mine out but it took several years...
