I have a peace lily - the stalk on my flower has broken if I put it in water will it begin to grow roots ?

No, it will not.


Lilys cannot be progagated that way.


They grow from bulbs.


Eventually more will grow from the bulb, so don't throw the pot away.





In case you don't know what a bulb is:


A storage organ, usually formed below ground level, used for propagation. A true bulb consists of fleshy scales surrounding the central bud, but the term is often loosely applied to corms, rhizomes and tubers.

an underground storage organ made up of enlarged and fleshy leaf bases and a bud.

I think you are talking about a spathaphallum or flag plant but if the stem is broken it won"t root It doesnt have any rooting sites on the stemusally at a leaf joint


I need to fix rear signal stalk on bmw motorcycle?

i have an r1200c and i need to replace the rear signal stalk. is it super complicated? will i need to remove the rear wheel? the service manual (clymer) only tells how to replace the bulb. right now i have the old one held together with black tape.

You should be able to reach under the fender to remove the nut that holds the turn signal stalk onto the bike. The wiring runs under the seat, and once you've identified the correct wires it should be fairly easy to unplug the original wires, remove the old turn signal, and reinstall the new one.





If you need a bit more room to work with under the fender, you can crank up the pre-load on the rear shock to give yourself a bit more space.

Science project with food coloring and celery stalk?

What would be a good hypothesis for a 3rd grader to write in his science project, He will be showing how red food coloring will turn a whole stalk of celery red..

Science project with food coloring and celery stalk?
Capillary action I think.
Reply:Um how about "The celery stalk will turn red because the red food colouring travels up the xylem tubes and is transported to all parts of the celery."
Reply:maybe that the green will sort of change the darkness of the red or that the green will show through a little or that the flavor will/will not change because of the coloring.


Why has my banana tree turned brown? the center stalk area is still green but the rest is brown. Mississippi?

It must have been frost burnt. the center stalk was protected by the older leaves and it will reshoot. Your banana tree is coming back to life.

Missi


You really have'nt supplied enough info to determine a cause of why your bannana has turned brown. For instance. How old is your tree? Has there been a cold snap? How does it get water?


Generally, turning brown, IS a sign that the shrub/tree is lacking water. The center is still green, so I would try adding water, I don't know where it was getting it's source from before, but it may have dried up. Good Luck with it.

Is it true that turkish men like to stalk western women in istanbul?

No

Is it true that turkish men like to stalk western women in istanbul?
I am truly astonished to see a notorious racist troll with obvious hatred and racist prejudice can ever ask a question like this...





even the most modest and calm users (non-Turkish) are irritated by the insolence exposed here by the trolls like alana and other racists.


Pls see the question http://answers.yahoo.com/question/?qid=2...





Any question or comment starting or phrasing "Why do Turks.." (i.e. classifying an entire race or nation as a unique a monolithic entity) is RACIST notwithstanding other prejudice and hatred spread among the words.





your racist hatred takes you nowhere!


I beseech you to STOP RACISM and REPENT YOUR SINS


then our Lord Jesus Christ may save your soul

Reply:nope not western women pretty women like every man does duhhhhhhhhhh why only say istanbul??
Reply:Spot the man who answered six times above.





Yes, Turkish men do stalk young foreign women especially in Istanbul and western Turkey, not aggressively but some are surely persistent, following you around until they get the chance to make eye contact and smile, hoping to see signs of interest. Just ignore them, they'll go away. Avoid eye contact as it can be misunderstood.





The most uncomfortable situation happens when the hotel staff tries to hit on you. In that case just tell him that your husband will be joining you soon.
Reply:U can not call stalking its becoz turkish men r not at all shy, confidently approaching women dats all
Reply:no I think you are wrong

Dilema, Agave plant putting out center flowering stalk. What is going to happen?

It has not produced any offsets around it and it has started to make the center flowering stalk. Is there hope for me to save the plant and if so how do I go about doing it. I can't believe it is doing this as it has only been in my yard for 2 years. How long does it take to make the bloom that is coming out of the center? Can someone help me to save my plant?

Dilema, Agave plant putting out center flowering stalk. What is going to happen?
Don't get too worried yet. It can depend somewhat in the species of agave you have, but even though no offshoots are visible it is very possible that they are still forming under ground and haven't yet emerged. They may even come up after the bloom is spent and the flowering stem has died. I would just enjoy the amazing flowers, and see what happens. If no side shoots are there, there's not much you can do. Cutting off the flower stalk now won't necessarily save the stem from dying. If the moths and/or bats do their stuff and manage to pollinate your flowers from another plant near by, you may get enough seed to grow a thousand more! Agaves start easily from seed, although it could take a few years before they are large enough to enjoy in a landscape. I hope you get some babies. Good luck.
