DEMOLITION
Depending on the forecast, I consider the week before and after Memorial Day planting time for all the tender annual fl owers and vegetables. If you go by the book, it isn’t until now that we can consider ourselves to be beyond the threat of frost. This is, of course, is based on an average of last frost dates and the way things have been going this season, Mother Natures is holding us to the rule unlike the last couple of years when we were able to get away with planting a little early. Even still, I want you to know that I’ll be proceeding with my planting of fl owering annuals even before you’re reading this.
While we’re all anxious to plant, it’s important to remember that the most popular vegetables grown are descendents of varieties that were discovered (or plundered, depend-ing on your view of 16th century Spanish colonialism) in Central America. Tomatoes, squash, peppers, beans, corn and many others were staple crops in the empire of the Aztecs. While Cortez and his conquistadors had no appreciation of Aztec culture, they, along with their Jesuit partners, were “religious” about sending anything of value back to the king and queen at home. While the wealth of gold has long been spent, the horticultural treasure con-tinues to feed and delight us. The diet of Europe before the “discovery” of the New World must have been very bland indeed. The hallmark of Italian cooking is tomato sauce yet; they didn’t cultivate tomatoes in Italy until after 1600! We associate potatoes with the Irish but there were no potatoes in Ireland until they were brought back from the New World. There WAS wheat in Europe so, as far as I can fi gure, they were real “meat & bread” folks until the ships returned from this side of the Atlantic.
The point of all this is that many of our vegetable crops, with their Central Ameri-can roots need lots of heat to perform well in our northern climate. There are many tricks gardeners use and I’ll share a couple of them.
To get our tomatoes to mature and start producing sooner, we need to increase the air and soil temperatures around our transplants. You can use hotcaps that you’ll buy at the garden center or make your own from plastic water or milk jugs. To make a hotcap from a plastic jug just take a sharp knife and slice an X through the bottom of the jug. The center of the X should be in the center of the bottom of the jug. This will give you four fl aps that you’ll bend outward so you can anchor the jug to the ground with rocks or long nails to keep it from blowing away. Be sure to remove the cap of the jug to allow excess heat to escape. We want to warm our transplants, not cook them.
You can also cover the soil at the base of your tomatoes with a sheet of black plas-tic. The black plastic will warm up in the sun and trap that heat, warming the soil below. Tomatoes love warm soil.
If you use tomato cages for support, you can install them as soon as you’ve plant-ed your tomato seedlings and wrap the cage with clear plastic. The clear plastic wrapped around the tomato cage creates a little greenhouse that’ll bring the temperature up to levels that tomatoes prefer. Leave the top of the plastic-covered tomato cage open to let excess heat escape. On nights that you expect temperatures to fall below 50 degrees, cover the tops of your “mini-greenhouses” to keep the temperature up overnight. Don’t forget to uncover them in the morning or they’ll cook.
When I’m running late with my planting, there’s another trick I’ll use to get seeds (like beans) to sprout in the shortest possible time. I’ll sow them in a shallow trench with soil built up on either side of the trench. Then I’ll cover the trench with my “germinating fabric” (also known as “fl oating row cover” or “frost fabric”). I can anchor the fabric with stones or tuck it into the soil to keep it from blowing off. The fabric will allow light and water to pass through but will trap enough heat to warm the soil, getting my seeds sprouted without cool weather delay. As soon as the seeds sprout, I’ll remove the fabric at let them enjoy the sunshine.
I hope the weather cooperates and we’ll all be able to fi nally dig in and get the crops in. I hope I don’t hear that dreaded “F” word until October. Thanks for the read.

Homeowners move trees around their property for a number of reasons. Some might be adding on to their property and need to make room for their new addi-tion, while others might simply want to move a tree for aesthetic reasons. Whatever the reason, transplanting trees can be risky. Trees that are not fully healthy, for instance, might fi nd a trans-plant too stressful. If the stress proves overwhelming, the tree could die or lose some its physi-cal appeal. Though there are no guarantees when transplanting trees, there are a few guidelines homeowners can follow to in-crease the likelihood of a suc-cessful transplant.
* Transplant at the right time. It’s best to transplant trees when the ground is not frozen. When transplanting in the spring, do so right after the ground has thawed and before the tree or shrub’s buds begin to swell. When transplanting in the fall, do so soon after leaf drop to al-low time for root development
before the soil freezes.
* Re-locate to the correct spot. Before transplanting a tree or shrub, test the new location in mind. Make sure the place to where the tree or shrub will be moved can provide suffi cient light for the given species to thrive. In addition, check the new location’s soil pH, mois-ture and wind exposure. Not all areas of a property are ideal for trees and shrubs, so inspect the area before moving. Such an in-spection should include exam-ining a layout of the property’s utility lines.
* Avoid drying out. Trees and shrubs should not dry out during the transplanting process. Water the plants for 2 to 3 days prior to transplanting the tree if the surrounding soil is dry. When it comes time to transplant, cover the root ball with a damp mate-rial, such as burlap or canvas, that will help retain moisture the tree or shrub needs.
* Let the professionals move
larger trees. Moving larger trees is an undertaking best left to professionals. Transplanting larger trees could prove a diffi -cult undertaking for many hom-eowners, and the tree could suf-fer greatly if that’s the case.
* Plant as soon as possible. It’s possible to store a tree and not immediately plant it, but it’s ideal to plant a tree or shrub that is being transplanted as soon as possible. If storing, avoid cov-ering the root ball with plastic. That can suffocate the plant’s roots, putting its life in signifi -cant jeopardy. Protect stored plants from extreme tempera-tures, wind and direct sunlight.
* Plant properly. Planting holes should be two to three times as wide as the root ball. If planting in dry soil, prewater the holes before planting begins, and be sure to plant the tree or shrub at the same depth it was originally growing in. Also, plant the tree so it is in the same direction, relative to the sun, that it was previously in.

Few things are anticipated more in spring than the arrival of new leaves on the trees and budding fl owers in the garden. A landscape awash with fresh colors can brighten the spirit and make anyone want to head outdoors.
There are many different plants that begin to show their col-ors in the spring. A number of perennials, annuals and trees begin to fl ower or show new sprouts come the springtime. Here are some plants that can be planted for springtime en-joyment.
Annuals
Looking for fi rst signs of col-or? Look no further than these wonderful annuals.
* Alyssum: Starting in April, this cascading bounty of tiny fl owers offers a sweet aroma that attracts butterfl ies.
* Dianthus: These vivid fl owers also attract butterfl ies and are often a cottage garden staple.
* Gypsophila: Also known as baby’s breath, these delicate fl owers can serve as fi ller in any landscape. Pink and white varieties are available.
* Impatiens: One of the best-known plants for the garden, these annuals come in scores of colors and can generally toler-
Spring Garden Timeate full sun to full shade.
* Larkspur: Belonging to the buttercup family, these fl ow-ers bloom in shades of white to violet.
* Pansy: These fl owers are some of the earliest spring bloomers, arriving alongside spring bulbs like tulips.
* Petunias: Petunias put on a show of color through the entire season, making them a popular bedding fl ower.
Perennials
These plants will come back year after year and offer spring shows.
* Cherry blossom: The fl owers that sprout on cherry trees are some of the fi rst signs of spring. Their pink or white buds are of-ten a spectacle, so much so that
towns and cities hold cherry blossom festivals.
* Columbine: These beautiful blooms attract butterfl ies and can be a nice part of a garden bed.
* Jacob’s ladder: Variegated foliage that is dappled with violet-colored fl owers can add a sweet smell and visual inter-est to the garden.
* Primrose: These fl owers come in a variety of shades, making them versatile in any garden. They also tend to attract butter-fl ies and hummingbirds.
* Sweet violet: These fragrant fl owers are edible as well as attractive. These plants can self-plant, so unless a gardener wants them to spread, they should be kept contained.

When the warm weather ar-rives, people venture out-doors and animals wake up from hibernation. Many in-sects hatch or revive from winter slumber and can be commonly seen in and around the home.
Once temperatures rise to about 60 F, many insects start their life cycles anew with eggs or larva hatch-ing and winged and webbed creatures rearing their at-tenaed heads. It can be frustrating for homeowners facing an insect infestation, especially when bugs are found in quantities inside or around the perimeter of the home.
There are many insects one might see in spring.
* Ants: Small black ants, called pavement ants, come out of dormancy and begin to forage for food and nests. Although pavement ants build their colonies outdoors, they will venture inside for easy food sources. They can be nuisance pests if not quickly tackled. Carpenter ants are large, black ants that are found in and around the home. They build nests and channels in wood, so they can be particularly trouble-some to homeowners for the potential structural damage they may cause. If they are seen in number inside of the home, there already may be an established colony inside of the walls.
* Bees: Bees and wasps may overwinter in home attics or eaves and then come out of dormancy. If a large bee
is seen inside of the home, chances are it is a queen look-ing for a good nesting area in which to lay her eggs and set up her new colony. Treat bee and wasp problems early on
before established nests can be created.
* Termites: Subterranean ter-mites swarm when it is warm or in the morning. Swarm-ing termites are those tak-ing fl ight to create new nests and colonies. Swarms can be scary for homeowners as they likely indicate a termite problem inside of the house. Consult with a professional exterminator if termite infes-tation is suspected.
* Spiders: Where there are other insects, there will be spiders to prey on them. When building a nest, spiders prefer out-of-the-way places that are dark and comfort-able. There are some spiders, like the wolf spider, that will actively attack insects instead
of lying in wait for a web to snare them. To keep spiders out of the home, make sure it is pest-free. Some homeown-ers like spiders around the home because they can pre-
vent other insects from becoming nuisances.
* Flies and gnats: Springtime may be a season when certain va-rieties of fl ies and gnats emerge from their infant stages and take fl ight. Certain fl ies and gnats bite, while others simply are buzzing nusiances.
* House centipedes: It’s likely that homeowners will encounter house cen-tipedes mostly in spring and fall because the in-sects are either coming out due to the warmer weather or retreating in-doors to fi nd a warm place
to stay. These centipedes pre-fer a cool, damp place to live, like a basement or bathroom, and generally lay 60 or more eggs at one time. They feed on many different insects, includ-ing spiders. But their alarming appearance, which includes 15 pairs of feathery legs, makes few homeowners content to share a residence with them.
As humans and other animals
become active and enjoy the
warmer weather, so, too, do
many insects and arachnids.
Springtime is a common
season to encounter many of
the “bugs” that dissapeared
when winter weather reared
its ugly head.

Highlighting, or up lighting, is a landscaping technique in which light from below is used to accent certain focal points in a landscape. In many instances, the light is used to illuminate a particularly impressive or unique plant. When highlighting, two or more spot light fi xtures are placed at the base of a landscape component and pointed upward. While highlighting is most commonly used to illuminate plants, it can be used to draw attention to other focal points of a landscape as well, including sculptures or other garden structures. Light fi xtures are aimed away from observers as a means to preventing glare, and oftentimes the fi xtures themselves are cam-oufl aged to maintain the natural beauty of the landscape.

Potatoes are enjoyed world-over and make a versatile addition to any meal. Though many consumers purchase their potatoes at the local grocery store, potatoes can be easily grown in the home garden, too. Potatoes prefer a slightly acidic soil and full sun and will produce best in a loose, moisture-retentive soil. It is possible to get good potato yields in less-than-perfect soil, however. Home gardeners can begin planting potatoes in early spring, when the soil is able to be worked. Plants will not begin to grow until the soil temperature is at least 45 F. Plant only certifi ed seed potatoes, which are available at most qual-ity nurseries and garden centers. They are less likely to have disease than a potato you picked up at the supermarket and tried to establish. Small seed potatoes can be planted as-is. Larger seed potatoes should be cut into pieces that contain at least one or two “eyes.” Placing the seed potatoes in a warm location can entice them to bud and speed up the sprouting process once planted.

Few things are as enjoyable for parents and grandparents as watching their children and grandchildren play. As cher-ished as such playtime can be, it can quickly turn into a memory adults and children alike would prefer to forget if an injury occurs.
Playground accidents vary in severity. Some produce just a scrape or a scratch, while more drastic accidents can lead to broken bones or even death. And where those acci-dents occur might come as a surprise to parents. Ten years ago, a study conducted by the Consumer Product Safety Commission discovered more deaths occurred on backyard playground equipment than on public playgrounds. A 2009 study from the CPSC found that 40 deaths were associated with playground equipment between 2001 to 2008, the majority of which were the result of hangings or asphyxiations.
Naturally, parents aware of such statistics are concerned, particularly those who want to erect a playground for their children on their own prop-erty. When building a home playground for children, par-ents should consider the fol-lowing factors.
Location, location, location!
A home playground’s loca-tion is very important. When deciding where to put a play-ground, consider its acces-
sibility. Is the playground easily reached should an ac-cident occur? Can children be seen playing from a nearby window? Should an accident occur, is the playground with-in earshot of the home? Kids often play on a home play-ground while their parents are inside, so be sure to locate the playground close enough to the home where you can see and hear your kids from the house, and in a spot that’s easy to get to should an acci-dent occur.
Equipment
Though most parents would love to build their children a home playground that rivals the nearby amusement park, some equipment has histori-cally proven to be more dan-gerous than others. A 2009 re-port from the CPSC indicated that climbers were associated with 23 percent of all play-ground injuries while swings were associated with 22 per-cent. When installing equip-ment, be sure everything is installed in strict adherence to the manufacturer’s instruc-tions.
Surfaces
According to the CPSC, 67 percent of playground acci-dents between 2001 and 2008 involved falls or equipment failure. Most kids are going to fall once or twice when playing on the playground. Parents can plan for such falls and minimize their child’s in-
jury risk by installing impact-absorbing surfaces beneath the playground. Such surfaces are the standard at many pub-lic playgrounds and can make the difference between a sim-ple fall or one that results in broken bones or a trip to the emergency room.
Inspection
Kids often like to play rough, and as a result playgrounds commonly take quite a beat-ing. Even if equipment was sturdy at installation and was installed to the letter of the manufacturer’s instructions, parents should routinely in-spect equipment to ensure it’s holding up to the wear and tear of children. Ask kids to let you know immediately if anything feels loose or isn’t working properly.
For more information, visit the Consumer Product Safety Commission at www.cpsc.gov.

Gardening is a rewarding hobby and one that gardeners know is forever evolving. Organic gar-dening is one relatively new trend that is growing in popularity. But even trendsetters need their gardening tools, and the following tools are among the many no gardener should ever be with-out.
* Shovels: Gardening might be relaxing, but it’s no walk in the park, either. Gardeners can expect to do lots of digging, and a good shovel is essential. A round-nosed shovel is ideal for digging holes for plants, while gardeners can use the fl at blade of a square-nosed shovel to edge neatly.
* Spading fork: A spading fork helps gardeners break up soil that’s too rocky for a shovel to handle. Spading forks can loosen the soil, turn it over and even be used as a spreader.
* Wheelbarrow: A wheelbarrow helps ease some of the physical demand associated with garden-ing. Rather than carrying tools one-by-one or manually lifting heavy bags of fertilizer or soil, simply toss these items in the wheelbarrow to make it easier to garden throughout the yard. Plas-tic wheelbarrows are durable and often much ligther than their metal counterparts.
* Garden hoe: Remove weeds and work on the soil with a standard garden hoe. A Dutch hoe is ideal for larger garden areas as it’s better for breaking up the soil before planting, while a draw hoe is better for working between plants, such as when weeds need to be removed.
* Rakes: A rake is not just effective in late fall when it’s time to clear the yard of all those fallen leaves. Leaf rakes can be used to remove debris, such as grass clippings, from a garden, while a garden rake can be used to spread mulch and smooth out the soil within the garden.

Few harbingers of spring are more spectacular to look at than the variety of butterfl ies that take to the skies after they emerge from chrysalis.
Although it is widely known that butterfl ies and moths go through a metamorphosis to turn into their fi nished forms, many are unaware just how many steps it takes for a butterfl y to be ready to fl y.
1. A butterfl y begins its life as an egg, which a female butterfl y lays on a particu-lar plant that the species of butterfl y prefers to eat. This is called a host plant. But-terfl ies are very particular about the type of plant that they eat. Certain species will only eat one type of plant or closely related varieties.
2. When a butterfl y hatches from the egg, it is called a larva, or a fi rst instar cat-erpillar. The insect is very small and does nothing but eat from the host plant.
3. Caterpillars are vora-cious eaters, and they grow very quickly. The trouble is that their skin cannot grow. A new, larger skin must be formed. To do this the cat-erpillar must molt its old skin so that the new, larger skin can emerge. As it eats, a caterpillar will go through a few stages depending on the species. It may become a second, third, fourth, and
Butterfl ies Are a Spring Spectaclefi fth instar caterpillar.
4. A caterpillar that has molt-ed several times may look very different from its initial larval form. It will be much larger and may have differ-ent colors and features.
5. During the fi nal molt, the discarded skin will become part of the chrysalis that will house the caterpillar as it pu-pates. The caterpillar spins a silk girdle that attaches it to a particular location, either on a tree branch or a plant stem.
6. Contrary to popular be-lief, butterfl ies are not formed in cocoons. Their pupa is called a chrysa-lis. Only some varieties of moths transform inside of a cocoon. In the chrysalis, the caterpillar is undergo-ing a rapid transformation. The chewing mouthparts are turning into the sucking mouthparts of a butterfl y. Wings and antennae are also forming. The pupa stage is not merely a hibernation for the caterpillar. It is a time of very active growth.
7. About 10 to 14 days later the butterfl y will emerge from the chrysalis. Upon doing so the wings will be wet and small. The butterfl y then pumps fl uids through the wings to expand them. It also needs to get used to fl ying. A recently hatched
butterfl y is very vulnerable until its wings are ready and dry.
8. An adult butterfl y eats nectar and reproduces to be-gin the life cycle anew. Rel-atively speaking, a butterfl y has a short life span. Some
species live only a few days. Others may live up to a year. This can make viewing a spectacularly hued butterfl y in a spring garden even more poignant for the observer.
More than 700 species of butterfl ies are found in
North America. In order to attract them to the backyard, homeowners can plant wild-life that nurtures all stages of the metamorphosis.
Adult butterfl ies looking for nectar will seek out plants in the sunlight; rarely do they
feed in the shade. Plants should have red, yellow, orange, pink, or purple blos-soms. Flat-topped or clus-tered fl owers are preferred, as are short fl ower tubes that enable the butterfl y’s pro-boscis to fi t in easily.

Custom stamped concrete has many residential appli-cations. Driveways, patios, pool decks, walkways and basement floors take on the appearance of slate, cobblestone or fieldstone.

Garden compost can be a gar-den’s best friend. Compost promotes soil health and en-ables plants grow to their best ability.
Many home gardeners prefer to make their own compost. It is easily achieved with items that normally would be dis-carded, including many items that ardent gardeners may be unaware of.
Common Compost Materials
Items like eggshells, banana peels, apple cores, paper, leaves, and coffee grounds are often included in a home compost pile. These items break down by natural bacte-ria and produce a rich fertil-izer for plants.
Lesser-Known Compost Ma-terials
There are many things that can be turned into compost. Here’s a list of common items that can be turned into com-post and avoid the landfi ll.

[email protected]@[email protected]@hotmail.comChoosing a new grass for a lawn depends on more than just aesthetic appeal. Where a person lives and the type of lawn he or she has should carry more weight than how a lawn looks upon its initial installation.
Climate is often the ultimate determining factor if a grass will thrive or wilt in a given region. Because climate plays such a big role, grasses are often categorized as “cool-climate” or “warm-climate.”
Cool-climate grasses
* Kentucky bluegrass: The most popular cool-climate grass, Kentucky bluegrass is ideal for lawns that get lots of sun. Because it has shallow roots, Kentucky blue grass is not very drought-tolerant. If planting Kentucky bluegrass, it’s best to do so in fall or spring. Kentucky bluegrass is medium-textured with green to dark green turf.
* Perennial ryegrass: Peren-nial ryegrass is generally easy
Climate a Key Factor When Choosing the Right Grass
to fi nd and grows quickly from seed. Commonly mixed with Kentucky bluegrass, pe-rennial ryegrasses are shiny with a medium to dark green turn and a fi ne or medium tex-ture. It’s best to plant peren-nial ryegrass in the fall.
* Creeping bentgrass: Very low and very fi ne in texture, creeping bentgrass, like all bent grasses, is susceptible to a variety of fungal diseases, making it one of the more high-maintenance grasses. Homeowners who plant creeping bentgrass should ex-pect to mow it frequently.
* Shade tolerant fescues: As their name suggests, shade tolerant fescues handle shade very well. These fescues, which include fi ne fescues and red fescues, typically have very fi ne blades and can survive extreme cold as well as withstand hot sum-mers. Shade tolerant fescues are typically medium to dark green and perform best when planted in the fall or during
spring.
Warm-climate grasses
* Bermuda grass: Bermuda grass is a very popular warm-climate grass as it’s capable of withstanding the heat but does not do nearly as well in the shade. Common Bermuda grass can be somewhat coarse and establishes itself rapidly. Golfers would likely recog-nize Bermuda grass, as it’s commonly used on golfi ng greens. When planting Ber-muda grass, it’s best to do so in spring.
* St. Augustine grass: St. Augustine grass requires at least six hours of direct sun per day. Best planted in early summer, St. Augustine grass is fast-growing.
* Zoysia grass: Zoysia grass grows slower than most warm-climate grasses, but some Zoysia species also have a much greater cold tolerance. Zoysia grass has a medium green color and the texture is medium. The deep root sys-tem of Zoysia grass enables it to withstand most diffi cult droughts. Best planted in early summer, Zoysia grass is resistant to insect problems and disease.
* Centipede grass: Light to medium green in color, cen-tipede grass is generally low-maintenance and performs better in shade than most of its warm-weather counter-parts. Shallow roots make centipede grass susceptible to drought, but those shallow roots also make it perform better in poor soil. Centipede grass is best planted during the spring. GT114669

Come Say Hello Today!
Crumbling or pitting of sur-faces on bricks and concrete is called spalling, and chances are it means a repair or re-placement project is in your future.
When concrete or brick be-come too soft and porous, it can absorb water and begin to crack, chip and cause pieces to break off. In most cases spal-ling occurs in small sections at a time, so it can be an easy repair project. But if spalling is widespread, it likely means replacement or resurfacing -- and that could involve hiring a professional mason.
For a small brick job, a do-it-yourselfer can usually handle the project. First fi nd a brick that will match the color and
Spalling a Sign Replacement Is Neededpointing style of the existing work. This may take a little research, and bricks that have aged signifi cantly could be harder to match.
Next, carefully scrape at the existing mortar around the spalled brick. Use a chisel and a hammer to knock out the damaged brick. If this doesn’t work, use a masonry bit to drill several holes in the face of the brick and then chisel out the pieces, cleaning out the smaller debris.
Mix the mortar chosen and wet the area that will be patched. Add the mortar to the area and the brick and slide into place. Tap until the replacement brick is level with the others. Use a trowel
to scrap off the excess mortar and create a mortar joint that looks similar to the existing.
Allow the mortar to cure and then examine the handiwork.

Summer weather can be harsh on a lawn. Even the most lawn-conscious home-owner can be helpless against a summer heat wave.
One of the most effective ways to help a lawn combat summer heat is to water the lawn as effectively as pos-sible. This is especially true for homeowners who live in areas that frequently fall vic-tim to drought. Such areas of-ten have drought restrictions that limit how much a hom-eowner can water his or her property. These restrictions highlight the importance of watering effectively.
* Water deeply and infre-quently. Light but frequent watering will not promote strong roots. In fact, ho-meowners who water too frequently can expect the growth of weeds. When wa-
Make the Most of Wateringtering, water deeply and in-frequently. Deep water pro-motes strong, healthy roots and can signifi cantly reduce the chances of a weed infes-tation.
* Don’t waste water on the pavement. Be sure sprinklers are placed in spots where no water will be overshooting the lawn and landing on the pavement. Adjust the sprin-kler heads so all the avail-able water ends up on the grass where it belongs.
* Water early. Evaporation loss is lowest in the early morning, typically between the hours of 5 to 10 a.m. This is a better time to water than at night, when watering could lead to fungal disease.
* Water newly seeded or sod-ded lawns more frequently. Newly seeded or sodded lawns require more watering
than established lawns. This is to build strong, healthy roots. However, it’s often not a good idea to sod or seed in the height of summer, so homeowners planning to do so should consult a profes-
sional before going forward with any project.
* Choose a drought-resistant grass. For those who live in areas that frequently experi-ence drought, a grass that’s
drought-resistant could be
the best option. Grasses that
are drought-resistant include
Bermuda grass, tall fescue
and Zoysia grass. Home-
owners who want to replace
their existing grass with a more drought-resistant spe-cies should consult a local lawn care professional for advice as to which grass is most likely to thrive in that particular climate or region.

Gardening enthusiasts often enjoy extending their gardens to their interior of their homes. Much like exterior plants, interior plants can succumb to dehydration and over-watering.
Many times, men and women with interior plants wait too long to ad-dress a plant that could be suffering from dehydration or overwatering. For a plant that’s dehydrated, don’t wait for the stems and leaves to be-gin wilting. If a plant has been over-watered, don’t wait to address the
Protect Interior Plants from Dehydrationissue until mold or fungi is growing on the surface of the soil. These are obvious signs of plants that are de-hydrated or have been overwatered, but they’re also late signs of those problems. There are earlier indica-tions of each of these problems that, when noticed quickly, can help save interior plants from suffering.
Signs of Dehydration
Dehydration can manifest itself in a number of ways. Plant enthusiasts should be on the lookout for the fol-
lowing signs of dehydration if they suspect their plants are suffering.
* Slower leaf growth. If the plant is taking longer than normal to grow to its full capacity, that could be due to dehydration.
* Leaves or fl owers are dropping prematurely. If the plant or fl ower’s leaves are dropping earlier than usual, this could indicate dehydra-tion.
* Leaves become translucent. If light can pass through the leaves the
plant might be dehydrated.
* Discoloration. Leaf edges become brown and dry out while lower leaves curl and yellow when a plant is dehydrated.
Signs of Overwatering
Watering a plant can be tricky. Some plant owners water too much, hurt-ing the plant as a result. If a plant is
being overwatered, it might begin to show the following signs.
* Leaves are falling off at the same time. When a plant has been overwatered, its old leaves and its young leaves will fall off at the same time.
* Root rot. The roots will soften and turn brown and possibly begin
to smell bad if a plant is overwa-tered.
* Mold forms on fl owers. Moldy fl owers have likely been overwa-tered.
* Standing water in the container’s underliner. A properly watered plant will make use of all its water. Standing water indicates it’s get-ting too much.

Homeowners remodeling their kitchen can look beyond tradi-tional appliances and add special-ty tools that may save on space and upgrade room effi ciency.
Not every kitchen is equipped with a trash compactor or wine cooler, but many homeowners are seeing the benefi ts of rethink-ing what appliances are included in their kitchen layouts and look-ing beyond the range or dish-washer.
Bonus Appliances to Add Kitchen AppealTrash Compactor
A trash compactor is a device that can be built into cabinetry or used as a stand-alone appliance wherever there is an available electrical outlet.
Compactors have advantages over traditional garbage pails and bags in the kitchen. They can hold a week or two of garbage in compressed form, reducing the need to take out the trash. Plus, they will not become as odifer-
ous as a regular pail. Compactors also take up less space than a garbage pail and can look more aesthetically pleasing in the kitchen.
Many compactors have fi lters and deodorizing holders inside the compactor. This will elimi-nate the smell that often results from decomposing foods and other debris.
Trash compactors can be es-pecially handy for individu-als who live in an apartment or where space is at a premium in the kitchen. The compactor will fl atten the garbage when a button or lever is pressed, reducing the volume of the trash. It may also be used with plastic and alumi-num recylables.
Wine Cooler
Chances are a wine cellar will not fi t in the average house. But a wine refrigerator can keep wine at the right temperature and hu-midity for optimal enjoyment.
Wine coolers are growing in popularity as more wine affi cio-nados understand how the fl avor of wine can benefi t from proper storage. A refrigerator will hold wine bottles and insulate them from outside temperature fl uc-tuations. They will also be handy and ready for use when the time comes.
Drawer Dishwashers
Most households are already equipped with a dishwasher, but the majority are a single wash area models. It is well known that for a dishwasher to oper-ate effi ciently, the entire washer should be fi lled before running the cycle. For many people this can take days of dishes sitting
soiled in the dishwasher.
Drawer dishwashers split the cleaning area into two unique zones. This enables a smaller load to be washed. However, this isn’t the only advantage. Drawer dishwashers can be more ergonomic, reducing the need for bending over to load the washer. Furthermore, because the two
drawers work independently of one another, one drawer can be used on a light cycle for mini-mally soiled dishes, while the other runs for heavily dirtied dishes -- all simultaneously.
Their unique look also makes drawer dishwashers coveted sim-ply from a design perspective.

I’m Terry Breen, owner of Country Acres. I am a graduate of Albany State, where I studied business and sociology. I have lived in the area for more than 18 years after growing up in Yorktown Heights, Westchester County. I have started several other local businesses including a pet grooming shop and a property management corporation.
We are a retail farm and pet center for all your animal needs. We have the best service and most knowl-edgeable staff anywhere. Along with farm and pet supplies we have a huge wild bird and wildlife section. We now sell propane and we are the largest Muck Boot retailer in the area.
Our services include: Doggie’s Daycare - Where your pet will romp and play all day under the watchful eye of our professionally trained staff. Pet Grooming - Our pet stylist, Gloria, is the best around at making your pet look and feel great. We have the most reasonable rates too! Dog Obedience - From puppy classes to advanced, we train all dogs to be the perfect companion. We also do Canine’s Good Citizen and Therapy Dog testing. Self Service Pet Wash - Washing your pet doesn’t have to be a chore. Avoid the mess at home by bathing your pet here.
We have an extremely exciting store. With a huge variety of brands and products, we always have something for everyone. Also, for the past few years we have been the new home of Harvest Time (formerly McKenna’s Greenhouse). For all your plants, pumpkins, Christmas Trees and more, they are the ones to see.
Our philosophy is: One stop shopping for all your pet, animal and wildlife needs. We concentrate on helping pet owners give their pets the best care possible. We strive to be the best, most knowledgeable and most helpful staff you will nd anywhere.

A Fresh Cabin Air Filter Creates ‘Breathing Room’ Inside Your Vehicle(MS) -- Let’s say you are about to take a long road trip. It’s one thing to have to clean out your car ahead of time to create enough space for you and your family to be comfortable inside. But did you know that you could also help them breathe more comfortably -- especially if some of them suffer from seasonal allergies or asthma? Breathing in dirty roadside air that enters through the vents affects everyone, par-ticularly the most vulnerable -- those that are susceptible to respiratory illnesses.
“If breathing clean air is
a concern for any reason, checking and replacing the cabin air fi lter should be on every vehicle owner’s list be-fore taking a long trip,” said Chuck Kerrigan, Director of Marketing for Purolator. Pu-rolator is a major supplier of BreatheEasy(R) cabin air fi l-ters (www.BreatheEasycabi-nfi lters.com) to the North American aftermarket.
A new cabin air fi lter is de-signed to protect the vehi-cle’s occupants from breath-ing in air that is contaminated with roadside dust, pollen, dirt, soot and mold spores and even noxious gases and
odors.
Most motorists are not aware that more than 80 percent of new domestic and import vehicles sold in the United States today come equipped with cabin air fi lters, says the Car Care Council (www.car-care.org/node/354), an auto-motive consumer group.
“And, it is even less likely that they know about the im-portant function these cabin air fi lters perform, and yet, they are inexpensive and usually quite easy to re-place,” said Kerrigan.
“Just ask your automotive technician to show you an old, dirty one,” said Purola-tor’s Kerrigan. “One look at a clogged cabin air fi lter will convince you that there’s a great deal of dust, dirt, and other contaminants fl oating around in your car’s cockpit. Breathing in that debris can be damaging to the health of anyone, especially those that suffer from allergies or breathing problems.”
Purolator BreatheEasy cabin
air fi lters come in two designs de-pending on the ve-hicle. One is a par-ticulate fi lter, the other is an activat-ed charcoal fi lter which also has the ability to fi lter out unpleasant odors. You can replace a used cabin air fi lter with either type, regardless of which was installed by the vehicle’s manufac-turer. The folks at Purolator advise that a cabin air fi lter be changed once every year or every 12,000 to 18,000 miles for maximum benefi t.
Replacement is usually sim-ple for do-it-yourselfers or professional technicians and many Purolator BreatheEasy cabin air fi lters come with detailed vehicle-specifi c in-stallation instructions. Most can be installed in about 15 minutes. The cabin air fi lter
may be located behind the glove box, under the hood near the windshield, or under the dash.
Refer to your owner’s man-ual to see if your vehicle has one. And if you fi nd it clogged, Purolator recom-mends you change it. Infor-mation: www.BreatheEasy-cabinfi lters.com. EL116985
If you are planning a long road trip and are particularly concerned about road-side dust aggravating asthma or seasonal allergies in you or your passengers, check your vehicle’s cabin air fi lter to see if it is clogged. Clean cabin air fi lters protect everyone -- especially those with breath-ing problems -- by keeping environmental pollutants from entering a vehicle’s inte-rior through the vents. Automotive fi lter supplier, Purolator, recommends replac-ing a vehicle’s cabin air fi lter every 12,000 to 18,000 miles for maximum benefi t.
