John asks…
Will a diploma from Ashworth College’s online program in Landscape Design get me into a job in the field?
I’ve been thinking seriously for a while now about taking classes, or working toward a degree, in Landscape or Garden Design. I found this one, which suits my budget and current time limitations (just had a baby) but don’t want to do it if it’ll only get me laughed at when I start looking for work in the field. I’d be happy starting out anywhere from a garden supply store/greenhouse/nursery, or at a landscape design company.
GardenersCardiff answers:
Actually your last statement is what you need to do. Just go get a job at a nursery and go from there. Landscape design is not something you can learn online. Sure the online courses can help but I think it may be a waste of money. If you have a community college near you that would be a much better choice. The art of landscape design cannot be learned in books it must be learned in the field. So get a job first then work with them in the field and the whole time learn about the plants and techniques. Then if you want go to a local community college and take some courses in horticulture or agronomy. Then lastly you may want to read these reports about ashworth. Good luck to you in your future of landscapes.

Mark asks…
Does Home Depot uses instant transfers with checks?
I’m going to use a check to buy gardening supplies. I was told by my bank the funds will be available tomorrow. My sister told me Home Depot could do an instant transfer on my check and decline it today. If I write a check to Home Depot will they do an instant transfer and be declined or will it take a normal 4-5 days for the money to be taken?
GardenersCardiff answers:
No! Not yet. There is talk about it but it hasn’t been done yet.

My friend wants a lawn gnome for her birthday but, I have no idea which store to buy it from. Please tell me a store where I could buy it from and is cheap.
GardenersCardiff answers:
WalMart, Target, Michael’s, JoAnn’s all are getting there spring stuff in, along with garden gnomes. Also, try shops that sell fountains and garden shops, along with Lowe’s, and Home Depot.

Betty asks…
Does anyone KNOW a place in Nashville, TN that sells garden gnomes?
I’ve looked everywhere obvious — Home Depot, Lowe’s, Old Time Pottery, some garden shops. Everyone can order one for me, but I need it by Saturday as a surprise gift.
GardenersCardiff answers:
One of the reviews for the Green Thumb Nursery mentions finding garden gnomes there. Green Thumb Nursery is in Green Hills (4010 Hillsboro Pike). You may want to call them to see if they still carry gnomes before making the drive. Their number is (615) 269-6374.
Here’s the link with the review that mentions garden gnomes:

Mary asks…
What would be the perfect gift for my wife from Home Depot?
She told me I can only buy her gift from Home Depot but wouldn’t tell me what it is? Does anyone have any ideas? I’m thinking about getting her a Garden Gnome! Do you think she would like that?
GardenersCardiff answers:
Duh! She wants one of the guys who work there! Find her the hottest one!
But you might need to ask about his ‘measurements’ before purchase.
