Plant Now & Enjoy Summer Fruit from your Garden for Years to Come We just brought in a full range of Dave Wilson container grown blueberries, pomegranates and figs that will complement the new season bare root collection. Here are just a few to consider: In Blueberries we’ve selected great varieties that thrive in our climate. Choose from Sunshine Blue, South Moon, Misty, Jubilee, Pink Lemonade, O’Neal and Sharp Blue. We recommend preparing the soil with acid planting mix and locating the plants in morning sun until 1:00 p.m. for best results. Figs and Pomegranates were born to live in our valley. These Mediterranean plants love our climate, are water-wise and thrive with very little care. • Figs: Black Jack, Brown Turkey, Viollette de Bordeaux, Black Mission and Panache • Pomegranates: My new favorite Ambrosia is the sweeest pomegranate you’ll ever eat, Sharp Velvet, Wonderful, Garnet Sash, Eversweet & Parfianka are among our collection. “Kung hay fat choi” Chinese New Year Seasonal Favorites February 13th is the Chinese New Year! Alden Lane has stocked a few special items typically used to decorate for Chinese New Year to invite good fortune into our house. Plant a flowering quince during this year’s celebration and have plenty of branches to cut and bring inside for future years. Flowering Quince is always in bloom during this time of year and symbolizes good health, prosperity and happiness. The blossoms on bare branches are excellent in flower arrangements and come in shades of red, pink and white. Kumquats are also used to celebrate Chinese New Year as they are becoming fully ripe during the late winter months. The Chinese name for Kumquat translates to “Gold Luck” and Alden Lane has several varieties to choose from. This highly prized hardy citrus plant bears heavy crops of small fruits that are eaten skin and all. They can also be made into delicious jams, preserves, and relishes. Bring home good fortune and “Gold Luck” with a Kumquat. As a special treat we are currently offering the Buddha’s Hand Citron. The fruit is traditionally brought inside and placed in a bowl for their wonderful fragrance. The fruit has virtually no pulp but can be sliced and candied in syrup for a unique treat. This is definitely a “conversation piece” in the garden so plant it somewhere it can be appreciated by guests. The gnarly fruit forms finger-like sections that resemble a hand and can bear quite heavily during this time of year. Win A Pair Win Special Rose of Roses - Feeding Recipe Your Choice!

  • 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.
