Rhus continus purpurea is rare in gardens due to propagation difficulties and needs frequent pruning. Rhus succedanum shows brilliant autumn scarlet foliage and is easy to grow in warm districts. Ribes linguineum, the flowering currant, has rosy pink spring flowers with new foliage. Sambucus laleus, the golden leaved elder, bears summer foliage that may scorch in hot, dry roots. In pruning, several plant varieties are noted for foliage color and flowering. The article also covers local church memories, donations, and community notes including New Year festivities and hospital gifts, with a list of donors and workers. It closes with a brief business notice for a watchmaker and a hairdresser, and a subscription note for The Leader.
