What •((•ct will the long summer
drought have on ornamental
trees and ahruba?Tl>ia question
baa been asked many times
and there la no satisfactory
answer that can be given, some
say: prune heavily, keep watered
and fertilize and the plants
will make a quick recovery and
be as good as new. This,
simply, is not true as I will
try to point out.
Some plants have, obviously,
been killed completely and
must be replaced. On the
campus I observed 12 Hellerl
hollies dead under one redbud
tree. They could not compete
for moisture with the deeper
roots of the redbud. We also lost
five out of six Hellerls In another
location with no tree root
competition. They were In full
sun and the water loss through
the leaves by transpiration was
very high. With no soil moisture
to counter-balance the loss
of water through the leaves,
the plants could not survive. So
much for plants that have
died.
What about the plants that
were less severely damaged
by the drought? A dead shoot
or limb here and here. Onethird
of the plant affected,
etc. How to handle these plants
Is our problem.

Mrs. Thomas Hawkins spoke

Most home gardeners have
observed that some plants are
more subject to water deficiency
than others. The reason
for this is the (act that some
plants have the ability to hold
(bind) water more than others.
We should remember, too,
that we have the cold winter
temperatures ahead of us and
that the effect of freezing is
very similar to drought damage
since, in both cases, water
Is removed from the growing
tissues.
Since we do risk the chance
of cold damage to plants already
drought damaged, I
would suggest no drastic pruning
at this time. I would, however,
suggest that dead shoots
and limbs be carefully removed
from drought damaged
plants back to live
tissue and that no pruning
be done beyond this treatment
until growth starts in the spring.
The plants will do their best
to overcome the injury by
putting out new (adventitious)
buds to replace damaged areas.
When this occurs, you will be
in better position to prune intelligently.
I would lightly fertilize
the plants In the spring,
mulch, and keep them watered.

Boy Scoots to the North Caro
Expert Offers Points
On Growing Camellias
Severe cold often means the
end of pretty camellia blossoms
In North Carolina.
But an extension horticulturist
at North Carolina State University
says that this doesn't
have to be so.
The horticulturist, Henry J.
Smith, says camellia {rowers
can do two things to Increase
their chances of having good
blossoms In spite of winter
cold damage.
"First, you should be careful
in selecting varieties,"
Smith said. "Second, you should
set the plants in a location that
will give them a fighting chance
to escape winter Injury."
Smith pointed out that camellias
flower at different periods,
extending from the fall through
the spring. The chances of
having good blooms are better
if a person selects varieties
that flowers In either the fall
or In late winter or early
spring. The objective is to
avoid the severest winter cold.
Some fall-flowering, earlyblooming
varieties are: September
Morn, Dlkagura, High
Hat, Marie Shaclcleford, Morning
Glow, Mrs. K. Sawada, AreJishi,
and Yohel-Haku.
Some medium-early varieties
are: Empress, White Empress,
Latifolia, Lady Clare,
and Professor Sargent.
Some late-flowering varieties
are: Finlandia, Blood of
, China, Herme, Sara Frost,
Flame, Flame Variegated, Elegans,
and Leucantha. These varieties
produce blooms in late
winter or early spring, and they
usually perform nicely even
after the coldest winters.
Kumasaka, Vllle de Nantes,
Lady Vanslttart, and Rev. John
Drayton flower just as winter
begins to warm into spring. Pink
Champagne produces blooms
very late in the season.
Smith said that completely
double varieties, such as Pink
Perfection, are usually more
susceptible to cold Injury than
varieties with loose petal
formation.
Smith had these suggestions
for selecting a place to locate
camellias:
Always keep In mind that
plants located in full sun are
more likely to be injured by
a sudden cold spell than plants
in a semi-shaded location.
If you are using camellias as
part of your foundation planting,
locate them on the north side of
your house. This location offers
winter shade.
Plants that are protected
from the winter sun, especially
morning sun, usually withstand
more cold than those with a
southern exposure. The northern
exposure provides a more
even and constant temperature.
East or West exposures are
good if there are trees, large
shrubs, houses, a fence or wall
nearby to give some shade and
protection.
Camellias benefit II protected
from winter winds. Such cold
winds can "dehydrate" plants,
causing them to be more susceptible
to cold damage.
1 *
If there are tall pine trees
in the yard, you have an ideal
place for your camellias. They
appreciate the broken shade,
overhead canopy of protection
and you have a natural "builtin"
source of mulch.
If you have had difficulty getting
camellias to survive, try
purchasing large established
plants, two or three feet tall.
They often will transplant and
live with greater ease then
smaller plants. Smith concluded.

In memory of Robert Holt
Shear In written by his daughters,
Brenda, Kaye and Faye.
Here we stand at a familiar
grave.
And we know that this dear soul
was saved.
For the soul of this person
was good and true,
Faithful, honest, and loving too.
This great man never shed a
tear,
He was humorous. Jolly, and
full of cheer.
In spite of pain and troubles,
he'd always smile.
He loved everyone, especially
a child.
He was not wealthy or held a
famous name.
But we loved him dearly just
the same.
He always had time for our
problems and needs,
He gave us praise for all our
simple deeds.
He was a hard-working and
generous man.
His daughters are now his biggest
fans.
Yes, this man Is the greatest
friend we've evjr had,
For buried in this grave Is
our beloved dad.
He left us with memories of him
so sweet and kind,
But that's not all he left Jt>ehind.
He taught us to worship our
Father above.
He taught us how to give and
how to love,
And even though he's gone to a
better land.
We'll remember these things
and we'l 1 never forget this
man.
The greatest friend we've ever
had,
Burled here, our beloved dad.
