Will snow affect our spring crops? - Staunton News Leader
Tuesday, March 14, 2017Believe it or not, at least for the plants growing closer to the ground, the fact that we're getting snow ... it's a good insulator," said Jeff Flint, owner of Village Garden Center in Fishersville. "If it's going to be in the teens it's better that there's snow on the ground covering plants and insulating them than not having the snow and it being in the teens."Some plants may be set back due to the weather jumping around, especially those that have already bloomed. With early warm weather and it suddenly going back to cold, those flowering plants could be set back, Flint said. .oembed-asset-link { border-bottom: 1px solid #e1e1e1; } .oembed-link-anchor { display: block; clear: both; } p.oembed-link-desc { font-size: 100%; color: #666; font-weight: normal; margin: 0 14px 14px 14px; font-family: 'Futura Today Light'; text-align: left; line-height: 120%; }The worst part has been the early warm weather followed by the cold late weather. Like a few years ago, when spring had sprung and the area was hit with a super cold April. That's when plants are in danger, because they have already begun the process of budding out and producing fruit."The biggest problem is the fact that a lot of these plants have bloomed out early," Flint said.Show ThumbnailsShow CaptionsLast SlideNext Slide"That's when you can kill the plant," he said. "The good news is that the plants are mostly in their winter doldrums, they haven't gotten far enough in the season now that killing the plant shouldn't be an issue. The worst thing is when you get extended warm periods and the plants think, 'Great spring's here,' and you get those 60 to 70 degree days in a week. Then on the weekend and the temperatures drop into the teens, that's when you have trunk damage and real problems."One downside is fruit trees may have a reduced harvest this year. On trees like a maple when the buds start to come out and we experience one of those late freezes, it'll freeze those buds — but some of those buds will regenerate, Flint said."Right now I would say it's too early for some things, we're only at the beginning of March so we have a little bit to go," Cooper said. "Things are going to be slowing down here in the next week or so, with the way temperatures are going to be. Plants won't be growing or moving, plants will be sitting idle and dormant with how cold it's supposed to become."What will be damaged will be some of your flowing plants, the flowers will die off and you may get some dieback on the edges where some new growth has occurred, but it won't kill the plant," he added. "Usually plants will come back from that."John Higgs, owner of Barren Ridge Vineyards, said it hasn't been warm enough fo... http://www.newsleader.com/story/news/local/2017/03/14/snow-affect-our-spring-crops/99157252/
Rebel Girl Floral Arranges 'Flowers for the Wild at Heart' | Lake Minnetonka - Lake Minnetonka Magazine
Wednesday, March 31, 2021Floral Sothea Keller, rebels against the ordinary. Vowing to never make the same arrangement twice, orders are custom made and created to give each flower a purpose. Sothea views herself as a garden florist, arranging “flowers for the wild at heart” and emphasizes the importance of creating a unique display while encapsulating the personality of each client.Rebel Girl FloralHer husband and business partner, James Keller, shares her approach. “I just want people to enjoy flowers and to experiment with just not having something typical,” he says. “I want them to be wowed.” The couple’s exposure to the floral industry does not fall short. James’ mother and sister are professional florists, and Sothea has been in the business for almost 15 years. Working alongside her in-laws helped her learn the ropes. Primarily focusing her work on wedding arrangements, Sothea eventually began to branch out to other events and custom work. Recognizing that the wedding industry is filled with florists, Sothea took another route—one that celebrates other important moments in life. After she, unfortunately, attended several funerals, she noticed that a majority of the arrangements fell flat. Seeing the same stark variation of flowers, shapes and colors, Sothea knew that there was a void that needed to be filled in the i... https://lakeminnetonkamag.com/rebel-girl-floral-arranges-flowers-wild-heart

10 Best Spring Flowers to Plant of Display - Gotham Magazine
Wednesday, March 31, 2021Tulips grow best with full or afternoon sun and water weekly. The tulip planting process begins in November, so if you want a simple but beautiful display, your best bet is to stop by your nearest florist.DaffodilsDaffodils are an easy perennial flower grown in most regions of North America, excepting the hottest and most humid. If planting, begin in the winter so blooms can arrive at the start of spring. Water when the weather is dry. If kept in a vase, they should be kept alone, as their stems release a liquid that can wilt other flowers. We recommend a bouquet of golden ducat, petit four and rip van winkle - all types of daffodils.HyacinthsKnown for their intense fragrance and bright colors, Hyacinths are the perfect spring flower. They do well in full sun and require frequent watering if there's no regular rain. They come in a wide variety of colors, from Blue Jacket, to blue-purple, Carnegie, pure white, City of Haarlem, buttery yellow, Delft Blue, soft blue, Jan Bos and fuchsia.ForsythiaBelonging to the olive family, Forsythia are low-maintenance flowering shrubs that grow quickly in an upright, arching form. They can grow to be up to 10 feet tall, so if planting, choose your spot wisely. Forsythia grow best with at least six hours of direct sun and moderately moist soil, so only water if experiencing a drought.RhododendronRhododendrons are often tubular, funnel or bell-shaped and very fragrant. These beauties do well in climates with adequate rainfall and moist springs and summers, so water pretty frequently if you live in a dry area. Place your rhododendrons in a slightly shaded area, but avoid deep shade or full sun.See also: The 5 Best Yoga Mats to Unroll in 2021PeoniesPeonies typically loom from late spring to early summer, depending on your location and variety.
