Gardening Tips:
Don't forget your indoor 'garden'! Your houseplants, like their outdoor relatives, will not need to be watered as much in the winter. Larger pots will not need as much water as smaller ones. The top of the soil doesn't reveal much about what's going on down around the roots. The best way to tell is to: become familiar with the particular species & it's needs & use a moisture meter-only $14.98.Note: Before attempting to diagnose or treat any problem, be sure to either bring in a sample of the plant (or email us a photo) or a soil sample for verification with our Garden Pros. Also, please remember that we can't see it over the phone!
Green Tip:
Save your egg cartons & donate them to us so we can pass them on to Kari (see ad for eggs below).
Feature Plant
Poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima)
Poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima)
Until the 1990's, the Ecke family of Encinitas, CA had a virtual monopoly on poinsettias owing to a technological secret that made it difficult for others to compete. The key to producing more desirable poinsettias is to create a fuller, more compact plant. A poinsettia left to grow on it's own will naturally take an open, somewhat weedy look. The Ecke's technique, which involved grafting two varietietechnique, but it was Paul Ecke, Jr. that was really responsible for cultivating the association between the plant & the winter holidays. Besides changing the market s together, made it possible to get every seedling to branch, resulting in a bushier plant. Albert Ecke emigrated from Germany to LA in 1900, opening a dairy & orchard in the Eagle Rock area. He became intrigued by the plant & sold them from street stands. His son, Paul Ecke developed the grafting from mature plants shipped by rail to cuttings sent by air, he sent free plants to television stations like The Tonight Show & Bob Hope's Christmas specials to market the plants. However, in the 1990's, a university researcher discovered the method & published it, opening the door for competitors to flourish. The Ecke family, now led by Paul Ecke III, no longer grows any on farms in the US, but as of 2008, they still control about 70% of the domestic & 50% of the worldwide market.Here I've chosen to highlight 3 more varieties that we're growing for the Festival.
