Plant Dogwoods
Now For Beauty
?...?..0 ...? ?...7 jp.lllg ?
flowering trees, the flowering
dogwood is one of the most
beautiful either in its natural
woodland habitat or in
cultivated landscape plantings.
The tree often reaches 15 to 20
feet in height with a low, broad
head and tiers of horizontal
branches. It can also be trained
in the form of a large broad
shrub with multiple branches
from the base.
The four large bracts
surrounding each cluster of
tiny yellow flowers opening in
early spring produce the showy
display of white for which the
tree is famed. In autumn, the
leaves turn to gorgeous shades
of orange, Scarlett and crimson
The bright red fruit borne in
small clusters adds to the
colorful autumn effect. In
winter, the button ? shape buds
are prominent on the tips of
the greenish or redish ? brown
twigs.
The dogwood grows best in
light shade, but will tolerate
full sun. The most favorable
soil is moist, fertile loam,
slightly acid to neutral. The
addition of peat or leafmold
improves nearly all garden soils
for the dogwood. A mulch of
leaves or other coarse material
is especially beneficial to
dogwoods. It keeps the soil
moist near the surface where
their roots are most active
The best time to transplant
dogwoods is the fall and winter
through March. Plant them
very shallow -- no deeper than
they came out of the ground.
Nursery ? grown tiees that have
been root ? pruned and grown
in full sunlight are far superior
to those dug up on the woods.
Small trees, even seedlings, live
much better than large trees

Finally, a recap on hair
care. Good draping of the
hair it the primary
consideration. NEVER
attempt this yourself and
choose your hairdresser
with care, as you should
have as much confidence
in your beautician as you
do your doctor...
Point number two...
remember a slight change
in your hair color can add
body and brilliance while
giving your spirits a lift
also. Point three... a good
dtempoo and prolonged
rinsing... Point four... use
your hair brurti night and
morning... i -
