Oct 26, 2018Gardening: Tips for growing tropical and exotic fruit trees in Southern California
A case in point is California's avocado acreage, most of which is found growing on slopes in places like Temecula and Santa Paula. On the Pierce College campus in Woodland Hills, many years ago, there was been a sizeable avocado planting there on sloping terrain, despite the fact that Woodland Hills experiences the coldest winter temperatures of any Valley locale. Ash says that his nursery will soon add macadamia nut trees to his list of exotic trees. You may peruse this list by visiting the website at paradisenursery.com.
"Another strategy for growing tropicals in the Valley," Ash added, "is to locate an appropriate spot on your property that affords frost protection. Planting out in the open on flat ground is not recommended."
Macadamia nut trees are native to tropical Australia as are finger lime (Microcitrus australasica) trees. I had never heard of or seen finger limes before and they are truly a marvel to behold. The fruits, which are ripening now, are 2-3 inches in length, deep purple in color when ripe and, when split open, full of clear vesicles that will remind you, by their size, color, and shape, of caviar. These vesicles are easily squeezed out of the surrounding skin and, when applied to your tongue, yield a tart flavor that has been compared to that of a lime. Finger limes are popularly used for livening up fish dishes, especially sushi, and certain cocktails.
I was delighted to learn from Ash that there are sweet cherry varieties that will produce in our area. These are being grown at his Chatsworth nursery. To be fair, they require a good 400 hours of winter chill (hours below 45 degrees) to flower and fruit the following spring so some winters will yield a good crop but warm winters will not. You will need to plant two different varieties – ‘Minnie Royal' and ‘Royal Lee' – together to maximize fruit on each since they are excellent pollenizers of each other.
Note: There is a head gardener position currently available at the Getty Museum Grounds and Gardens Department. The work is full time and the compensation is $24.16 per hour. For more information, contact Brian Houck at bhouck@getty.edu.
Tip of the Week: I asked Ash about the watering regime for tropical trees. "During the summer, trees are deep soaked in average draining soil twice a week. In winter, the water is shut off. Where new trees are planted, I install a single spray sprinkler or bubbler attached to a double swivel elbow so I can bring the sprinkler close to the ground. As the tree grows, I raise the sprinkler so that more area, accommodating a larger root system, is covered. With small orchards, underground pipe is installed with sprinklers or bubblers next to each tree. With large orchards, drip irrigation with tubing that runs along the soil surface is more sensible."

Jul 6, 2018This year's Ojai Valley Lavender Festival celebrates survival as well as purple blooms
Thomas Fire, said Maureen Volland, who handles publicity for the event. The nuns who grow lavender at St. Barbara's Monastery in Santa Paula lost many of their plants, she said, although local growers helped replace some of what they lost. Other farmers saw their lavender blooms delayed because of the heat and smoke.
Nevertheless, the farms have recovered sufficiently in time for this Saturday's celebration, she said. Visitors to the festival will be able to buy live lavender plants, fresh and dried lavender bundles, wreaths, sachets and various lavender products including soaps, lotions and oils. A sixth farm, Frog Creek Lavender Farm in Upper Ojai, will host offsite tours where visitors can pick bundles of fresh lavender themselves.
"People love the festival," Volland said. "You enter Ojai and you can smell the lavender; it's beautiful. The whole town participates: Local restaurants serve lavender-flavored menu items; merchants in town offer lavender specials. It's come to be quintessentially Ojai."
Besides the lavender growers, more than 100 vendors will be on hand at the festival, selling a wide variety of products including gourmet oils and balsamic vinegars, specialty lavender lemonade, baked goods and non-alcoholic cocktail mixers and salts. The celebrations will include live music throughout the day, a lavender-themed art show, food trucks, games, prizes and raffles.
Featured speakers will include ecological landscaper Laura Maher of Greywater Gardens, who will present "How to Design, Build and Maintain a Greywater Irrigation System for Your Home Garden" at noon. Artist and musician turned health advocate Amanda Mullins will present "Make Your Favorite Foods Nutritious and Delicious" at 2 p.m.
Money raised from the festival will go toward agriculture-related scholarships and grants for area residents. This year, the festival awarded a $2,000 student scholarship and $7,000 in community grants to local homeowners to restore landscaping destroyed or damaged by the Thomas Fire, including the Luboffs.
"These people lost basically everything, so we were really thrilled to be able to provide a little something," Volland said. "It wasn't huge, but it was just enough to be able to replant something of what they lost."
For the Luboffs, the fire has taken a toll both economically and emotionally, said Tony Luboff. But the family is looking forward to returning to the lavender festival this year and eventually regaining what they've lost.
"The Thomas Fire did not help us one bit, but it's going to make us stronger," he said. "We'll come back stronger and better than ever."

Dec 28, 2016Bargain hunters find holiday gifts at Ventura swap meet
If I bought everything I imagine I would want to buy, my house would look like ‘Hoarders,' " Rae said.
Hector Alonzo of Santa Paula enjoys coming to the swap meet to sell the assortment of household and other items he gathers at garage sales.
“There are a lot of collectors who come to the market to buy things. How well you do depends on what you have,” Alonzo said as he prepared the odds and end he had for sale.
Claudia Scheckman of Simi Valley camps regularly at the Rincon. She includes a trip to the swap meet on each trip.
As she looked critically at an old, rusted plant stand, she said, “I come here about four to five times a year and I look forward to coming to the swap meet. I collect succulents that I make into original and unique planters. This swap meet is great because it’s only $1 to get in, which is basically free.”
Scheckman said she is also shopping for one-of-a-kind items for her mother and sister. “I prefer old things with character.”
Valerie Hitton of Ventura made sure a pink stuffed talking horse was actually talking before she plunked it down in a child-sized baby carriage.
“I really like dolls … and monkeys,” she said, pointing to the satin-clad dolls and some stuffed monkeys that were arranged on a table.
Hitton said she hadn’t yet seen an increase in foot traffic associated with the holidays. “Last week I didn’t do as well, but maybe today will be better,” she said.
Adams said there are usually thousands of people who come to check out the various vendors. She said all vendors are required to have state-issued sellers’ permits. “They can’t sell food or anything to eat without the appropriate health permits,” Adams said.
The Ventura College Foundation also runs a marketplace 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekends at the college, which is a giant swap meet that supports the school, scholarships, grants and other projects.
For information about the Ventura Fairgrounds swap meet, which runs from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., call 818-590-5435.
