Fall planted bulbs topic of garden club gathering Open Gate Garden Club members heard a program on “Fall-Planted Spring and Early Summer Flowering Bulbs” at the Nov. 9 meting at Boyce Memorial ARP Church. Dot Ham, club secre- tary, was hostess and served a dessert course as 13 women arrived. Bridges stated that you should photograph your spring garden to know where you need to plant your bulbs for Fall. Also your major bulbs, Tulips, Hyacinths and Daffodils, should be planted according to the flowering season - mid February to mid May and also depending on the local weather conditions for your area. She stated that the best time to purchase bulbs is in the Fall and eriteria for bulbs is that they be firm. Be sure to buy early to get the best selections. The size and/or number of flowers is directly related to the size of he bulb. Keep bulbs cool be- fore panting. The soil for bulbs needs to have good drainage, some- times mixing soil with peat ‘moss, compost and aged bark. Soil pH is critical. Contact your county extension office for this. The bulbs must be planted in the Fall in order to develop a root system and sat- isfy the cold requirement of the bulbs. Wait until soil tem- peratures are below 60F be- fore planting and in North Carolina this is usually late October to November. Fertilization improves bulb performance. There are two fertilizer systems available for Spring flowering bulbs. The first system uses a single fall application at planting, incor- porated at planting and the second system uses bone meal with an application of 8-8-8 as soon as you see shoots break- ing in the spring. Lenora Morris, who pre- sented “Timely Tips,” said now is time to fertilize and seed lawns, pant trees and spring bulbs and mulch plants. : Joyce Ledford was wel- comed as a new member. Margie Bridges and Presi- dent Betty Grant said they would check at the downtown ‘back lot’ and with city work- ers before they began a gar- dening project. Club members signed a card for Polly Phifer and sent a flower to Dwight and Betty Alexander. Mr. Alexander, the ‘club’s “right hand man” in planting crepe myrtle, has been sick. The club will meet for lunch on Dec. 4 at 11:30 a.m. at Battleground Restaurant and receive a report of the nominating committee. Kings Mountain man arrested at church Gaston County authori- ties arrested a Kings Moun- tain man Sunday at a Gastonia church he has at- tended for 11 years. David Lineberger, 50, of 108 Brandonwood Lane, a registered sex offender, was breaking the conditions of the registry by being on the premises of a church that has an on-site nursery. Lineberger’s bond of $1 million was reduced to $50,000 by a Gastonia judge Monday. His next court date is Dec. 6. ' A caller to the Gaston . Sheriff’s Office brought two officers to the Gastonia church Sunday morning where Lineberger is active and where he said his church family knew of his criminal record. Lineberger said he never went into the nursery or on-site school areas. Lineberger was convicted of sex offense and child pornography charges in 1995 in another state and sen- tenced to more than 5 1/2 years in prison. Upon re- ‘lease, he was required to en- roll in the sex offense registry program for a mini- mum of 10 years, keep au- thorities aware, of his location and adhere to a list of off-limit places, including where children are present.
