Column: Farmers Open fixture: San Diego Police officer Ganley bounces from flowers to fugitives to fairways - The San Diego Union-Tribune

The snapshots range from facing down a 2x4-wielding man in Pacific Beach, rubbing elbows with Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones and providing security for Tiger Woods when he drilled a knee-buckling, playoff-forcing putt during his stirring win in the 2008 U.S. Open.Before Debbie Ganley joined the San Diego Police Department, the Long Island native worked as a florist who brightened the homes of director Steven Spielberg, actor Chevy Chase and the former CEO of Warner Brothers in the ritzy enclave known as The Hamptons.Nothing, though, prepared her for unexpected moments quite like a domestic disturbance call.“The suspect’s weapon was a frozen fish,” said Ganley, laughing. “It’s like, ‘OK, how do you impound a fish?’ ” Advertisement That unique mix of commitment to the job and magnetic personality has made Ganley, the officer in charge at the Famers Insurance Open, a player favorite and the inaugural winner of the event’s Hometown Hero Award.The person who has guarded and guided Woods, Phil Mickelson, Ernie Els, John Daly and so many more sin... https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/sports/sports-columnists/story/2020-01-17/farmers-insurance-open-golf-san-diego-police-office-deborah-ganley-tiger-woods-phil-mickelson-john-daly

When the Florist Isn't Enough, the Rich Go BIG - PRNewswire

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., Feb. 4, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- One successful bidder (or their lucky sweetheart) will be walking away from Palm Beach Modern Auctions on Saturday, Feb. 8th with a one-of-a-kind monumental Tom Wesselmann 'Steel Drawing' sculpture titled Wildflower Bouquet (One-Handled Vase). The wall-spanning spray of vibrant blooms was formed using a laser-cutting technique the artist helped develop, which allowed him to meticulously reproduce his drawings in steel. Painted in the highly saturated colors the artist is known for, close inspection reveals subtle gradients and variations in the color, perhaps a second nod to the irony of presenting such delicate subject matter in a material known for its hardness.

Master Gardener: Four Generations Bloom at Adeline's Peonies - Yakima Herald-Republic

Adeline’s Peonies was established in 1933 by Adeline McCarthy in Toppenish, and her family has been raising peonies there ever since.Born in North Dakota in 1896, Adeline Klinger eloped with Frank McCarthy when she was just a teenager and traveled with him to Toppenish in a covered wagon. They arrived in 1915 and built their home on 2.5 acres, right next to the railroad tracks, at what is now 502 Asotin Ave. Looking at the neighborhood today, it seems as if the city of Toppenish grew up around the McCarthy home.There, in a charming cottage painted a sunny shade of yellow, the McCarthys raised nine boys and one girl. Frank, a mechanic, built a shop on the property. Adeline planted a vegetable garden to feed her family, and a flower garden for herself. Perhaps peonies reminded her of home. Native to dry, frigid mountainsides in China, all peonies require a long period of winter chilling (400 hours of temperatures below 32 degrees) before they will bloom. The quintessential “old-fashioned” flower, peonies were likely well-known to a girl who grew up in North Dakota.Grit and determination shaped Adeline’s character. In the 1930s, her business began when she started... https://www.yakimaherald.com/magazine/home_and_garden/master-gardener-four-generations-bloom-at-adeline-s-peonies/article_ec0be22a-95ab-5a3d-bfdc-667652c6bd8a.html

This pretty flower is a weed; Get rid of it fast! - INFORUM

Lenore Grande, Moorhead. A: Your unsuccessful experience with Endless Summer is similar to the majority of those who have tried it in North Dakota and large parts of Minnesota. The basic problem is that the Endless Summer group of hydrangeas, including Bloomstruck, are members of the Hydrangea macrophylla species, which is the species of the non-adapted florist hydrangeas. The two hydrangea species that are best-adapted for our outdoor landscapes are Hydrangea paniculata and Hydrangea arborescens and their cultivars. Checking the fine print on hydrangea labels for the species saves much heartache. Because Bloomstruck is a Hydrangea macrophylla variety, it has a disadvantage in our region from the onset because of its genetics. Bloomstruck is fairly new, so time will tell, but it would be surprising if it performs better than its genetics allow. Q: Is it okay to prune the top of our arborvitae so that it doesn't grow too tall? Its width is fine, but the top is at about 8 feet and we'd like it to stay at that height. - Nancy Suttle, West Fargo. A: Yes, the tops of pyramidal arborvitae can be trimmed so they don't become too tall. If an arborvitae is allowed to grow out of bounds, it's difficult to radically reduce its height back down to desired size. Your idea of maintaining it at 8 feet from the start is much better than someday trying to cut a tall arborvitae back down to that level. Keeping a shrub or tree at its present size through pruning is often called "mold and hold" pruning. Several times during the growing season, prune off the current season's new growth so the arborvitae remains at the desired height. Some pyramidal arborvitae varieties' natural heights are 30 feet, so diligence may be needed to maintain at 8 feet. To hold an arborvitae at its present size, it's probably necessary to trim once in June or July and again in August. A quick trim across the top a couple times each summer should do it.

Fielding Questions: Can tulip bulbs be replanted in a pot, trying... - The Dickinson Press

I’m sure there will be a national advertising push.However, it’s very important to note the entire Endless Summer series is not well-adapted for general planting in North Dakota and northern Minnesota unless certain measures are followed. The series belongs to the species Hydrangea macrophylla, which is different from other hydrangeas that thrive in our region. It’s more closely related to the florist-type hydrangea, and a majority of gardeners have reported disappointment after the first season.Those who report success with the Endless Summer series plant the shrubs in protected, shaded microclimates, mulch through the growing season, provide plentiful moisture and ensure winter protection, including good snow cover.Q: It was great fun to see the photos and read the letter from the person in Moorhead with the prolific amaryllis. I also had one of these huge white double amaryllis from Walmart this Christmas. Mine had three stems and also had 17 flowers. — Linda Luessen, Valley City, N.D.A: Thanks, Linda, for your interesting comments.Linda continues, “I got mine at the Jamestown, N.D., Walmart. When the bloom first showed color, I was disappointed to see it was going to be white, because the flower on the box was red with a white star in the middle and was labeled ‘Stargazer.’ I was amazed at the size of the bud, then this huge double flower opened up. The flowers were so large, and there were so many it was hard to distinguish one bloom from another. Needless to say, I will be checking for these mislabeled bulbs again next Christmas!”Stargazer amaryllis should indeed be bright red with white stripes, so obviously a mix-up occurred somewhere in packaging, but at least it turned into a pleasant surprise.If you have a gardening or lawn care question, email Don Kinzler at ForumGrowingTogether@hotmail.com.
