Ash Juniper Trees
Ash juniper trees are native to Texas. Many Texans hate these trees though. The male trees produce large amounts of pollen from December into February to fertilize the female flowers. These trees are either male or female. The male trees produce pollen and the females produce berries. The pollen produced by the male trees travels through the air in thick clouds at times. If you live near one your yard and car gets covered with it. A lot of people are allergic to the pollen also and get what is called cedar fever.
Ash juniper is often referred to as cedar but it isn't a cedar tree. It is referred to by many names: Texas cedar, mountain cedar, rock cedar, blueberry juniper, enebro and cedro. Many people call it a cedar because the ash juniper is aromatic like cedar and has the same insect repelling qualities.
Ash junipers can grow in very poor soil and need little water. They can grow in full sun or in the shade. However, they grow very slowly in full sun and tend to branch out a lot near the bottom making them look more like a shrub. They can grow more upright in shady conditions if they are planted amongst other things and are crowded. Austin tree service professionals prune these trees to allow the trunks to grow straight and then they develop a nice crown.
Ash junipers are not stately trees like live oaks but are an interesting complement to them and other trees in a stand.
The ash juniper berries are blue and loved by birds. If you want to attract birds the female ash juniper berries will do this. These berries are popular in Northern Europe and the United States in marinades for meat, mostly pork but are also used in stews and soup. They have a sage like flavor that is both sweet and bitter. The oil is extracted from the trees and used as a disinfectant. Inhaling the oil from steaming juniper foliage clears the sinuses because the oil contains about 70% camphor. Camphor has a distinct odor that most people recognize because it is used in mothballs. Some people burn the foliage to disinfect the air.
The wood is very durable and is used in everything from cabinets to fence posts and in cedar lined closets and cedar chests. In fact, cedar posts have been used on ranches in Texas for many years by cattle ranchers to support miles of barbed wire.

Plastic Above Ground Rainwater Collecting Tank System is an efficient and economical way to store rainwater and with a choice of colors it will look great in any outdoor setting. When you use rainwater instead of municipal water you'll help improve the health of gardens lawns and trees. Rainwater is a healthier option because it's softer and doesn't contain the minerals like chlorine and fluoride that municipal water does. Plus using the water you collect in the tank can have a significant impact on your water bill by reducing your dependency on the municipal water supply especially during the hot dry summer months. What's more with proper use you can decrease the store run-off into local rivers and lakes.This RTS rainwater collecting system is easy to install and is suitable for almost any household property size or location. It's also easy to maintain and its durable construction ensures it will last for years. This collection tank features a drain with plug for easy emptying when cooler weather starts to roll in. A spigot gives you easy access to your stored water and you can attach your garden hose directly to it. An inlet pipe ensures no water is lost between the downspout and the collection tank and a leaf catcher keeps leaves and other debris out of your stored water. The access cover keeps children and small animals out of the tank and the overflow valve will do its job when the container gets too full.

Infinity Edge Swimming Pools and Their Cost
Infinity pools are also known as vanishing edge or negative edge pools. They have one or more sides where the pool edge terminates in a weir that is 15 to 25 mm lower than the median pool water level. The water cascades over the weir into a collection trough that runs along beneath the whole length of the weir. The effect when viewed by a bather in the pool is very dramatic when the edge appears to merge with sea in the background or even the sky if the pool is located high up on a hillside.
A properly designed infinity edge pool has two circulation systems. The infinity edge system is only designed to run when the pool is being used and consists of a circulation system that takes water from the collection trough, filters it and returns it to the main pool. The other system works in exactly the same way as a conventional pool, filtration and heating circulation system except that the ugly conventional skimmers are not required and the water circulates back through the pump via the drain in the pool floor.
The additional cost of an infinity edge pool arises mainly from the provision of:-
The collection trough that acts as a buffer tank The water-proofing of the weir and the collection trough The large capacity infinity edge circulation pump and filter The electronic autofill sensor in the collection trough
The automatic level sensor / filling device is needed to ensure there is enough water in the system to prime the edge pump and to compensate for any waves sent over the weir by bathers and rainwater. For a 12 x 6 metre pool with one infinity edge the additional cost should be in the 8 to 10,000 Euros range excluding any taxes. The trough and autofill, edge filtration system and the additional water proofing costs will each amount to about one third of this or about 3,000 Euros each. The water-proofing may seem to be costly but a conventional factory made PVC liner is not suitable for an infinity edge pool and needs to be replaced by a PVC "liner armee" system that involves cutting and welding the PVC liner on site.
There is a very interesting alternative to infinity edge pools that is beginning to be sold into the French pool market where Bluepools operates. These are called mirror pools and they are an exciting option when the views from a garden are less than spectacular. In a mirror pool the infinity edge is taken around the entire perimeter of the swimming pool and the weir is drained by a perimeter trough that is much smaller than the collection trough of an infinity pool. The perimeter trough is drained by a network of gravity fed downpipes that take the water to a central collection tank that provides the buffer water storage normally provided by the collection trough in a conventional infinity pool. The cost of a mirror pool will be a little more than the cost of an infinity pool of the same size with the infinity edge along one long side.
The additional operating costs of either an infinity or mirror pool will not be that high because the big pump needed to run the infinity edge system will only operate when the pool is in use. The extra costs will be incurred from:-
The power the pump uses The cost of the water that is lost due to evaporation from the flow over the weir The cost of replacing the heat loss caused by evaporation The heat required for the water replacing the evaporated water
The total additional operating cost is difficult to assess accurately because it does depend on so many variables but it will certainly be less than the cost of heating a conventional pool of the same size using a heat pump.
The development of infinity pools has coincided with the increase in a new trend towards designer pools that are now often seen at exclusive properties and on magazine covers. Many people have property in an ideal location for the installation of an infinity edge pool even more have gardens that would benefit from a mirror pool and I hope this article encourages the development of both.

Every gardener knows that a successful growing season requires a lot of water. However, with droughts hitting numerous parts of the United States, meeting those water demands to ensure that a garden is productive and flowers are flourishing can be a costly operation. The Channell 205 gallon tank provides an easy way to collect, store, and irrigate with the free water running off of your roof.
How Much Rain Will I Collect?
You would be amazed how much water runs off of your roof in a rain storm. As a rule of thumb, every 1,000 square feet of roof area in a 1" rain will yield approximately 600 gallons of water. Our 205 gallon rain barrel would fill in just a fifth of an inch of rain over a 1,000 square foot collection area.
