  • Colonial Garden Plants
    COLONIAL GARD~J~ PLANTS I Flowers Before 1700 The following plants are listed according to the names most commonly used during the colonial period. The botanical name follows for accurate identification. The common name was listed first because many of the people using these lists will have access to or be familiar with that name rather than the botanical name. The botanical names are according to Bailey’s Hortus Second and The Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture (3, 4). They are not the botanical names used during the colonial period for many of them have changed drastically. We have been very cautious concerning the interpretation of names to see that accuracy is maintained. By using several references spanning almost two hundred years (1, 3, 32, 35) we were able to interpret accurately the names of certain plants. For example, in the earliest works (32, 35), Lark’s Heel is used for Larkspur, also Delphinium. Then in later works the name Larkspur appears with the former in parenthesis. Similarly, the name "Emanies" appears frequently in the earliest books. Finally, one of them (35) lists the name Anemones as a synonym. Some of the names are amusing: "Issop" for Hyssop, "Pum- pions" for Pumpkins, "Mushmillions" for Muskmellons, "Isquou- terquashes" for Squashes, "Cowslips" for Primroses, "Daffadown dillies" for Daffodils. Other names are confusing. Bachelors Button was the name used for Gomphrena globosa, not for Centaurea cyanis as we use it today. Similarly, in the earliest literature, "Marygold" was used for Calendula. Later we begin to see "Pot Marygold" and "Calen- dula" for Calendula, and "Marygold" is reserved for Marigolds.

  • History of the Flower Garden: the Garden Takes Shape by Caroline Burgess, Director
    News from Stonecrop GardenFall 2008s History of the Flower Garden: The Garden Takes Shape by Caroline Burgess, Director Stonecrop grew literally and figuratively out of its spec- tacular albeit challenging site atop a rocky and windswept hill, surrounded by close woods and long, pastoral views down the Hudson Valley. Like all cultivated landscapes, Stonecrop, however, is just as much an expression of the ideas and aspirations of the people who create and inhabit it as the native landscape from whence it sprang. Frank Cabot’s three-part series of articles which appeared previ- ously in our newsletter beautifully documents this process of accommodating both man and nature, telling of the early years he and his family spent at Stonecrop. In this new series, I will continue the tale, using the story of our Flower Garden to illustrate the garden-making process at Stonecrop during my tenure. An Englishwoman by birth, I arrived in the United States as the Director of Stonecrop Gardens in 1984 following the completion of my three-year Diploma in Horticulture at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. As Caroline Burgess at Barnsley House a child, I worked in a stable near my family’s home in exchange for the privilege of riding the horses. That stable sequence of surrounding spaces and views. One enters belonged to Rosemary Verey and it wasn’t long before I the house (and now the Flower Garden) through a simple was working as a gardener and later the head gardener yet elegant turf and gravel courtyard ringed in trees. in her acclaimed gardens at Barnsley House.

  • Weeds of Summer Gardening Has Both R
    Janet B. Carson Extension Horticulture Specialist Arkansas Democrat-Gazette July 16, 2016 - Weeds of Summer Gardening has both rewards and challenges, and one of the biggest challenges every year is weeds. No matter how bad weather conditions get for growing plants, weeds seem to grow undaunted. Weeds are tough performers able to survive and thrive in a wide range of growing conditions. Learning to identify the weeds you have is often the first step to controlling them. If you can catch them as they are getting started, you may be able to limit their spread and return. I often recommend the best method for weed control in a vegetable and flower garden is the Santa Clause method—Hoe, Hoe, Hoe, but there are herbicides that can control them. If you do opt for chemical control, know there are differences in what can be sprayed around ornamentals, turf and edibles. Summer weeds can be divided into annuals and perennials. While the annuals are just here for one season, they often aggressively set seeds providing an unhappy return the next season. Perennials can also set seeds, but they come back from their root system as well, often making them more difficult to kill. Top 10 Summer Weeds (alphabetically) Bermudagrass – While Bermudagrass is a desired lawn grass, when it escapes into flower beds and vegetable gardens, it is a tenacious weed. It thrives in hot, dry conditions in full sun. It does not compete well in the shade. Bermudagrass spreads by rhizomes and if left unchecked, can outcompete flowers and vegetables. Make sure to give yourself a buffer zone of 6-12 inches between where your lawn ends and your vegetable and flower gardens begin.

  • Welcome to the Daisy Flower Garden Activity Plan 1 Watering Can Award
    Welcome to the Daisy Flower Garden Activity Plan 1 Watering Can Award Purpose: When girls have earned this award, they'll begin to understand the Girl Scout Promise and Law and experience what it means to be "responsible for what I say and do." Planning Guides Link: Leadership Activity Plan Length: 1.5 hours Involve Family and Friends: Participation from family and friends can enrich your troop's Girl Scout experience, both for the girls and for you. Use the suggestions below to make it easier for you to connect with additional support. • Before the meeting: • Send a note to families to find those with interest in or expertise with the topic. Ask them to lead or support an activity or two, or even lead the whole meeting. o Offer this activity plan as a starting place and point out that they may choose alternative activities using the Customize It! section as a guide. For example: If an activity plan directs girls to sit outside and observe animal habitats, you may choose to go to the zoo and learn about animal habitats there instead. • At home: • Encourage families to ask questions about their girls' petal or journey activities. Some examples that work for any petal or journey include: What did you learn? What surprised you? What does it make you think of trying next? • Throughout the year: • Suggest to families ways that girls can share or display their Girl Scout accomplishments. Possibilities include a bulletin board, a scrapbook, a special memories box or family sharing time. Girls Take the Lead: Include girl leadership through long-term planning, short-term meeting prep and specific activities at meetings.

  • 2019 OSMG Garden and Landscape Plan
    !1 “Its style and manners (are) very city-like and no place of the same size contains as many plants and flowers. In every window, yard, and garden you behold them and some of very beautiful and rare order. If a great fancy for flowers argues a corresponding taste for all that’s beautiful and lovely, then the people of Salem are unsurpassed.” The Carolina Watchman 1845 BACKGROUND Long before the landscape restoration program was begun, even before the restoration of the area known as Old Salem, the Garden Club Council of Winston-Salem and Forsyth County and a number of garden clubs planted and maintained gardens and planted trees in Salem. The most notable of these efforts was the 1963 project to remake the Miksch garden lot into the likeness of the 1761 Bethabara Medicinal Garden as the Emma Ormsby Griffith Memorial Garden. It wasn’t until 1972 when, thanks to the efforts of Flora Ann Bynum (and John Bivens Jr, then director of restoration for Old Salem, Inc.) that the Landscape Restoration committee was formed and a more dramatic restoration of the landscapes and gardens began. The Salt Street Family Gardens were the next gardens to be restored in the mid 1970s at the helm of Peter Hatch, Old Salem’s first staff horticulturist (who went on to restore the gardens and landscape of Monticello). Then, over the years more gardens and landscapes were recreated. Among these: The Anna Catherina lot behind the Vogler, the Volz lot for showcasing field crops, and the Eberhardt Lot across Salt from Miksch.
