Williamsburg Botanical Garden puts on show of fall finery in reds, oranges, yellows and purples

Virginia's official state insect since 1991. •Blackgum, also known as sourgum or black tupelo, Nyssa sylvatica. Showing hues of yellow, orange, bright red and purple, often on the same branch, the 30- to 50-foot-tall native tree features flowers that are not showy but provide nectar for native bees and honeybees. The fruit sustains 30 species of songbirds, plus other wildlife. •Sassafras, Sassafras albidum. Brilliant foliage in shades of yellow, deep orange, scarlet and purple make the 20- to 40-foot tree stunning. Sassafras attracts many butterflies and is a host plant for spicebush swallowtails, and the leaves are eaten by the eastern tiger swallowtail caterpillar. Woodpeckers, mockingbirds and small mammals eat its fruit. •American beautyberry, also known as French mulberry, Callicarpa americana. Mid-summer, fuzzy pinkish flowers turn into berry-like drupes that encircle stems in an eye-catching pink to magenta. The 10-foot shrub provides food for many songbirds, including cardinals and Carolina chickadees. Blooms on new growth, so prune when berries are gone. •Alternate-leaf dogwood, also known as pagoda dogwood, Cornus alternifolia. Leaves turn reddish-purple, often tinted with yellow or green in fall, followed by small, fragrant yellowish-white flowers in late spring. Large shrub grows 15- to 25-feet tall and hosts caterpillar for spring azure butterfly. •Common ninebark, Physocarpus opulifolius. Reddish seedpods appear September to October, following white to faintly pink flower clusters in late spring or early summer. Shrub grows 5 to 12 feet with maple-like dark green leaves that change to yellow in autumn. Flowers provide nectar and pollen for butterflies and bees; birds, especially finches, eat the seeds. •Black highbus... (Daily Press)

Betty Montgomery: Enjoy the color of fall tress in your own garden

Blackgum, nyssa or black tupelo, whichever name you choose, gives spectacular red color in the fall, as do the red maples and red oaks. These native trees are abundant in the woods all along the East Coast from Florida to Canada and east to Texas. There are several varieties of blackgum and red maples, which will perform nicely in our area. The Chinese pistache tree is another showstopper as the narrow leaflets that line the foot-long leaves turn bright orange and red. This medium-size tree from Taiwan and China is extremely winter hardy and has superior drought and heat tolerant. If you want to have a tree that produces flowers in spring or summer and also has lovely fall color, there are attractive trees that fit this description. Today, many deciduous trees have pretty spring or summer flowers and then have another glorious show with their colorful leaves. Stewartia pseudocamellia, dogwoods and certain crabapples are some of the trees that give you beautiful flowers and then explode into a plethora of lovely warm colors in the fall. Any one of them would make a lovely show. The crape myrtle tree, an Asian native, has charming flowers in the summer, but is not as cold hardy as others, not growing north of Virginia or Maryland. Most varieties of this beloved tree have pretty fall color that will decorate any landscape. The sourwood tree is also a tree with interesting flowers that open in mid-summer and that have flamboyant colors in the fall. It offers some of the best red fall color of our native trees and the flowers produce an outstanding and sought after honey. The Chinese fringe tree is the last tree to turn in our garden. It gives us a lovely slipcover of yellow leaves in late November when all other deciduous trees have already lost their leaves. It has white flowers in the early spring that are quite splendid. If you are limited in space, a Japanese maple might be just the tree for you. With their small structure, enchanting colors and different leaf patterns, this is a tree that can fit in any garden. There are more than 700 varieties from which to choose and any one will delight you. You can get the straight species or one of the countless varieties. Autumn is a time to enjoy those lovely colors and adding a tree that performs in the fall will make your garden sparkle in autumn. Do some homework, see what grows well in your area and go visit a reputable nursery, getting a knowledgeable person to help you chose the right tree for your space. Trees grow quicker than you think and will bring you pleasure for years. Betty Montgomery, a master gardener and author of a Four Season Southern Garden, can be reached at bmontgomery40@gmail.com.

PERRY/Presidential primaries

Cruz. McDaniel said, "Ted Cruz's values are Mississippi's values, and Mississippi is essential to the 2016 primary election process." Cruz visited Tupelo and Olive Branch in August.Ohio Governor John Kasich previously announced Andy Taggart, former Chief of Staff to Governor Kirk Fordice, along with U.S. Representative Gregg Harper and former U.S. Senator Trent Lott, will lead his campaign efforts in Mississippi.Taggart said, "Governor John Kasich is sounding the message of growth, optimism, strength and inclusion that our country has been waiting for." Others on board the Kasich team include Transportation Commissioner Mike Tagert; state Senators Giles Ward, Josh Harkins, and Brice Wiggins; Republican county chairmen Gary Harkins (Rankin), Pete Perry (Hinds), Lew Yoder (Jones) and Geoffrey Yoste (Lafayette); former MSGOP Chairman Billy Powell and a number of local elected officials.Last year Bush, Paul and Rubio all made visits to Mississippi as did New Jersey Governor Chris Christie and former Pennsylvania U.S. Senator Rick Santorum.Based on the latest reports filed with Federal Election Commission, Bush has raised the most money from Mississippi with $114,630 with Carson in second at $81,326 and Cruz in third with $40,826. Paul, Rubio, Carly Fiorina, Donald Trump and Mike Huckabee have all received between $10,000 and $25,000 while the other candidates have received less than $10,000. (On the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton has received $81,326, Bernie Sanders received $10,504 and Martin O'Malley received $3,000.)Republicans go to the polls for the Republican presidential primary on March 8, 2016, the same day as the Michigan and Idaho primaries and the Hawaii caucus.Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia and Texas (among others) hold their primaries the week prior; the Kentucky caucus and Louisiana primary are the Saturday before Mississippi's vote; Florida, Missouri and North Carolina are among the primaries the following week.Four years ago, Santorum, Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney all made multiple stops in state leading up to the Mississippi primary. Santorum won a plurality with 32.8 percent of the vote with Gingrich at 31.2 percent and Romney at 30.6 percent earning 13, 12 and 12 delegates respectively (Romney ended up with 15 delegates total by way of super delegates). About 6,000 votes separated Santorum and Romney. Texas Congressman Ron Paul (father of Rand) placed fourth with 4.4 percent and no delegates.Several candidates have already dropped out (former Texas Governor Rick Perry, Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker) and more will drop before March 8. But Mississippi will get the presidential campaign treatment from those seeking some of our 40 delegates awarded at-large, by congressional district and the 3 super delegates.Brian Perry is a partner with Capstone Public Affairs, LLC.
