Gloucester County Certified Gardeners to Sponsor Herb and Flower Show at Red Bank Battlefield - SNJTODAY

By: SNJ Today Staff NATIONAL PARK, N.J. – The annual Herb and Flower Show, sponsored by the Gloucester County Certified Gardeners, will take place on Sunday, June 23 from noon to 4 p.m. at the James and Ann Whitall House and Gardens, Red Bank Battlefield, 100 Hessian Avenue, National Park. The theme this year is The Whitall’s Home. A ribbon cutting at 11:30 a.m., will feature a new colonial garden that the Certified Gardeners have completed at the site. The Colonial Garden reflects the time period and contains heirloom varieties of flowers, herbs, and vegetables. The plants in the garden would have been used by the Whitall family for food, medicinal remedies, and dyes for clothing. “The gardens at the James and Ann Whitall House are cared for and maintained by a group of talented volunteers, and the Herb and Flower show is one of the best times to come and visit the gardens as well as to show your growing skills from your own garden,” Freeholder Director Robert M. Damminger said in a press release. Visitors to the flower show will be able to vote for Best in Show f...

Sweeney Attends Grand Opening of Inclusive Vaseful Flower Shop - InsiderNJ

Our communities are continuing to become more inclusive for people with disabilities,” said Senator Sweeney (D-Gloucester/Salem/Cumberland). “In many ways, this has been my life’s work. But that doesn’t merely mean putting a ramp alongside a stairwell, or greater educational opportunities, it also means a greater breadth of employment options for everyone. “Community Options has done incredible work over the years to help the developmentally disabled realize their value as hard-working members of our society. Their steadfast commitment and advocacy has helped educate and train countless individuals with developmental disabilities, providing them support and opportunities they would not have received without this organization. Everyone deserves to live the fullest lives they can, socially and professionally, and businesses like the Vaseful Flower Shop make this possible.” For 30 years, Community Options has developed residential and employment support for people with severe disabilities. Community Options believes in the dignity of every person, and in the freedom of all people to experience the highest degree of self-determination. “I’m incredibly proud of everyone’s work that made opening another location in New Jersey possible,” said Robert Stack, President and CEO. “We could not have done this without the support and advocacy of our community leaders, particularly Senate President Sweeney. I look forward to working together in the years ahead as we strive to make everywhere i...

These miniature flowers are perfect for small spaces (and budgets)

Chase away the winter blues with these lovely early-blooming trees and shrubs]Brent Heath, the daffodil deity from Gloucester, Va., says one of his new hybrids, Sunlight Sensation, has as many as five stems per bulb, each with four or five blooms. A dozen bulbs might give you 300 flowers. “It has a lovely fruitlike fragrance,” he said.Even long-established varieties combine delicacy with abundance. Minnow, white with yellow cups, has been around since the 1960s and still deserves to be in every garden. Hawera, developed in New Zealand way back in 1928, remains to me the most elegant of small daffodils, pale canary yellow with half a dozen or more blooms a stem.An old yellow miniature named Tete-a-Tete has become the most common bulb used for forcing in pots.Young people may not be well represented in the ranks of daffodil fanciers, but small daffodils offer a cheap and practical way for urban millennials to luxuriate in the genus Narcissus, named after that handsome but lonely dude who couldn’t get enough of himself. You can find many small daffodils for between 50 cents and $1 a bulb (though rare, show-quality varieties can cost 100 times as much). The bulbs are usually ordered in early fall for autumn planting, though some mail-order nurseries offer discounts for early orders.Miniature daffodils require little real estate and excel in pots and containers. The bulbs need winter’s chill — clay pots are fine in an unheated building, but containers that stay outdoors should be of some frostproof material.The bulbs need a sunny location and excellent drainage, both more easily achieved in containers than in the ground. If you use miniature daffodils in garden beds, they are so obliging. Their lingering post-blooming foliage isn’t as intrusive as larger daffodils, so they can poke up in the spring through burgeoning hostas, creeping phlox, thyme — any sort of sympathetic ground cover — and never look untidy come May.Last week, I stopped by the Alexandria garden of Karen Cogar, president of the Washington Daffodil Society, to see some of the “minis” in action. In an area of only eight feet by six feet, she was growing approximately 200 varieties of miniature daffodils. The term applies to those that grow under s...
