November 18, 2004 The Kings Mountain Herald Page 5B CLUBS MR.AND MRS. LINDERMAN THEN Peggy Baird gives program at Open Gate Garden Club The Open Gate Garden Club met November 10 at the Masonic Hall. Olivia Mayhew was hostess. Sixteen members and one visitor were present. Margie Bridges, president, gave the welcome and the Club Collect was read in unison. Bridges introduced Peggy Baird, who presented a program titled “Planning a Garden for Birds.” Baird stated that planning a bird garden depends on the type of lawn and geo- graphical location. Three elements are crucial in attracting birds - cover in the form of trees and shrubs, food in the form of native plants, and water for birds to drink and bathe in. Baird said shrubs for food from native plants should be the mainstay of a bird’s diet. Food put in feeders should only supplement natural for- age. Most coniferous trees attract insects and those provide food for many birds. Fruit bearing trees and - berry bearing shrubs provide food for mocking bids, robins and wax wings. Many other birds make use of these in the winter. Use only native plants in gardens and native deciduous trees like maple, oak and dogwood, which provide bet- ter forage for birds than exotic plants. Eucalyptus can even be dangerous. Many short beaked birds have trouble removing the pitch of the eucalyptus from their bills and may suffocate. Avoid using pesticides. They may not have an effect on humans but can be harmful to birds. Shrubs are useful for shelter as well as for food. Tea Vibrernum, a native of China, has radiant red berries that open in September and October. Monks in China used the leaves of the plant for brewing their tea and they used the berries for a feast for birds. Rock Cotoneaster, a ground cover, produces a crop of red berries. This does well on slopes and in poor to average soil. The rose bush produces rose hips. These are seed pods. Some rose varieties. bloom profusely and produce more hips. Rose hips are not only for birds, they are used for making tea and jelly. They are higher in Vitamin C than any citrus fruit. Berries are found in other plants like sumac, flowering dogwood, wild grape, Japanese honeysuckle, climbing bittersweet, pokeweed, nandina, hol- lies, some cedars, and many others such as white berries of poison ivy. When planting a garden for birds, shop for shrubs that provide food and color for the yard during growing time. Ask at the nursery, check plant tags, consult reference books and catalogs before purchasing. Wait until nesting has finished and berries have been eaten before pruning plants. Members were reminded that it is time to plant tulip bulbs and pansies, time to rake leaves and clean garden spots and mulch where needed. Polly Phifer gave the treasurer’s report, noting that $216 had been spent for calendars and there was a balance of $593.68 in the treasury. The arrangement was “Harvest Moon,” and a basket with mums and other fall flowers. Jessie Collins gave a report on the District III meeting held Oct. 21 in Mooresville. Six members attended the meeting, and two of them won door prizes. Bridges gave a report on the “back lot” project. Betty Alexander gave a list of plants neéded to complete the proj- ect. The City will be asked to help with the project. Jessie Collins made a motion to complete the work, Melba Boyles seconded and the motion passed.
