I’m curious if anyone has laid eyes on hanging basket ferns for sale this year. I’ve been to:

• Ritchie Feed and Seed Gloucester
• Great Canadian Superstore Richmond road garden centre -Home Depot South Keys -No Frills 2681 Alta Vista (off bank)

Last few years, every garden centre had hanging ferns. I haven’t seen any yet this year. Anyone come across them?

I’m wondering what the best spots are to buy perennials this time of year. I live downtown and can usually get by in the spring with the Loblaws, Walmart, Home Depot centres a short distance away but these are all either closed now or the plants are looking very rough. If you wanted a couple of perennials right now in Ottawa & surrounding area, where would you go?

I heard they’d been approved for the 2022 season. Last year they arrived during the May long weekend. Anyone have some insight on the delay? (and yes I recognize many people in this sub dislike the scooters for some very valid reasons!)

Hello friendly folks! I hope you can help me out. I am here for a few days on a work trip and I unfortunately am in need of some in-person tech support or advice ASAP. I have a laptop with what looks to be a swollen battery. I can’t remove the battery without unscrewing the base. It is a company laptop, therefore, please no DIY advice: I am looking for your recommendations to any walk-in tech support clinics and would pay for these services. (Even to just extract the battery safely!) Do these exist here? I’m flying home on Friday and really don’t think I should fly with a swollen laptop battery so need some guidance. Merci! :)

Of course the gut reaction looking at this tree is that it is bad news. That said, hypothetically speaking, would you ever consider buying this house with this tree against it, if it were the right price in a great neighbourhood/location?

Located in Canada. The house is a row house, over 100 years old and I’m suspecting the tree is 40+ years old. The foundation is a stone/rubble foundation. Low “crawl space” basement. From the inside, it does not look like any roots have entered.

Research on trees and foundations is giving me a mixed bag of results and I’m just wondering if this house is even worth a penny given that tree. I come to reddit before forkin
