Flower and Tree Care Tips From a Garden Column
Plant a few trees each fall or spring to sustain fruit supply. The American persimmon is a handsome tree with dark green leaves that stay late. Carnations dislike shade and fresh manure. They grow well in good garden soil. A secret for flowers from potted plants is to keep them pot bound. When growth slows, energy shifts to flowers. Regular pruning and feeding renew shrubs each season, removing old weak wood. Ammonia is a plant stimulant not a seed. it forces bloom but must be followed by fertilizer to sustain vitality.
Antiquity of the boomerang in ancient history
The boomerang, long tied to Australian natives, is argued to be known before Christ. Pliny the Elder notes a returning wooden staff made from Aquifolia wood when thrown past the mark, implying possible misattribution to wood rather than shape.
