Possumhaw: The power of plants - The Dispatch - The Commercial Dispatch

Flowers always make people better, happier, and more helpful: they are sunshine, food, and medicine for the soul." -- Luther Burbank, American pioneer in agricultural science (1849-1926) Bundled up and facing a gusty wind while taking a slow walk down the gravel road to the newspaper box and back, I climbed through the fence railing and walked up the lake's dam. There in front of me was a single stem with four or five paperwhite narcissus blooms. A flower like that can make your day. Just a little reminder that one day, maybe not far away, spring will come, then summer, and maybe all the sickness will be gone. I plucked the stem and relished in its strong fragrance. Just a small thing, of little consequence, and no cost at all, had made my day and lifted my spirit. Growing things will do that. Beside the perennial garden next to the goldfish pond is the greenhouse. When temperatures fall below 40 degrees, all the potted plants and any others needing protection are hurried to the greenhouse. Not only does the greenhouse protect the plants for the next year, it also becomes a haven for winter gardening, f...

Gardening: Thar be dragon fruit cactus growing fast and looming large

Ventura Boulevard and Orion Avenue in Sherman Oaks and the other on the side of an apartment building on the corner of Burbank Boulevard and Vesper Avenue in Van Nuys – I had to stop and take a closer look at newly planted smoke trees (Cotinus coggygria). Five years later, those specimens have been transformed into handsome domes of bronzish-purple foliage. As the weather cools, that foliage will change to orange-red and gold before dropping off. Tip of the Week: Smoke trees, so-called because of faded flowers that resemble puffs of smoke, are moderately sized, reaching a maximum height of thirty feet. Given enough room to grow, they should never need to be pruned as they keep their natural, symmetrical shape from year to year. Trimming, which may eventually be necessary on sites where growth over sidewalks, entryways, or roof lines may occur, should be done with long sleeves and gloves since smoke trees are in the same family as poison ivy and poison oak and their sap is dermatitic to some people.
