A recent study has reclassified the species commonly known as the Javan rhinoceros, proposing a more precise scientific name: Eurhinoceros sondaicus. The research highlights key differences in body structure and ecology that set this species apart from the Indian rhinoceros (Rhinoceros unicornis). Recognizing it as a separate genus not only improves scientific understanding but also has important implications for conservation efforts.

Hello I have never had any plants before and I’m looking to grow some herbs and lavender, but I’m concerned it’s not possible.
So I live in an apartment and I have a patio big enough to have the right sized planters but there is a massive oak that casts 24/7 shade on my patio. I’m wanting to grow lavender, basil, oregano, sage, thyme, and rosemary. But all of these say they need direct sunlight which I don’t have. I live in the Dallas Texas area and it’s fairly warm here and gets pretty hot in the summer. A lot of the things I have read said hot climates should provide afternoon shade but this would be all day shade.
So is it possible to grow these? And if so any advice on how to make it work would be greatly appreciated!

I may need to build some walls. Concrete blocks need to be transported a long way here and they are heavy. I’m looking for alternatives. I’m getting joint pain when moving heavy objects so am attracted to aircrete as I’ve read it is 85% air. We have air here lol. How did you make it? What foam generator did you use? What soap, etc? It would be awesome to make some blocks and some panels. Were you satisfied with the results? Thanks

Hi, I have five hazelnut trees that I planted from saplings about 8 years ago. This is the second year that four of the trees have put on a good number of flowers, but last year I didn’t get a single nut. Is there something I should do – some type of fertilizer they need? My soil is mostly red clay. Mid Atlantic region weather. The five trees include York, Theta, and Jefferson varieties.
