MONTPELIER TODAY 4 Sept.-Oct. 2011
Dear Neighbors:
Another year has flown by and the 2011 Board of Trus-
tees is winding down after a great year. We never
failed to have a meeting due to lack of a quorum which
allowed us to keep running the business of the Associa-tion. We completed all our projects in time to maxi-
mize the summertime fun in the sun.
Jim Harkins renovated the benches in front of the ten-
nis courts and replaced the wooden feet on the
benches inside, so they would not dig into our newly
resurfaced courts. One of the most noticeable projects
of the year was the cleaning up of the bushes around
the courts. Not sure if the increased use of the tennis
courts was due to the great weather, new surfaces or
the fact that we could see the courts so well now. They
just seem to be calling out to us as we drive by after
work….
The back hill of the pool also continues to improve as
we turn dirt into a nicely landscaped vista. Soon there
will be enough on the hill to reduce the demand for
weeding and we will be able to enjoy a low mainte-
nance area that will grow more beautiful every year.
The Architectural Control and Compliance Committee
volunteers, led by Michael Boddie, continue to work
through the issues with the many homes we have that
are in the hands of the banks and mortgage companies.
Neighbors have improvements that must be checkedand voted on, as well as the occasional complaints that
need to be handled. We have the luxury of having sea-
soned ACCC veterans to adjudicate their conflicts. It is
truly a thankless job and we appreciate their time and
dedication.
Finally, I would like to thank the 2011 Board of Trustees
for supporting the community with their time and en-ergy. Whether it was Lillian Fazio paying the bills while
picking up deadfall around the tennis courts and pool
back hill or Tony Fleming totally revamping our web
site and standardizing the Governing Documents, we
have a super group. My trusty VP, Jack Keating had
the tennis courts fence painted and installed new
drinking fountains at the tennis courts and pool. Tricia
Douville kept the minutes going when our tireless
keeper-of-all-information Administrative Assistant,
Mary Hughes was out of town; we sure do miss her
when she is at the beach. The facilities have been well
cared for by Richard Dengler and Dave Eisenberg while
the Yahoo messages have been kept efficiently moving
with Tim Jacobs at the helm. And last but not least,
Paul Buehler has fought the good fight with the cicada
killing sand wasps in the volleyball court while caring
for the biggest attraction and most rare of amenities,
our neighborhood pool. Thank you for letting me be a
part of it, it has truly been a great year.
Bob Derrick

Old Business:
None
New Business:
Community members discussed the desire to install
security cameras in the neighborhood. The possibility
of obtaining a grant for community development
through a “501 c3” was suggested and discussed. E.
Brown de Colstoun also suggested building a commu-
nity center with grant money. Another member with
experience in community development grants ex-
plained that the process is very competitive and it
would be more likely to obtain a grant for security
cameras than a project as large as a community cen-
ter. Trustee Derrick explained further that the com-
munity building might be open to the general public
unless funding was secured through special assess-
ments. He encouraged anyone interested in such a
project to research the idea and bring a proposal to
the board for consideration.
Several candidates for the upcoming election spoke to
the membership. Former Prince George’s County Po-
lice Chief Melvin High discussed crime and his plans for
the Sheriff’s office if elected. State Senator Doug Pe-
ters answered questions and discussed community
grants. He also introduced Geraldine Valentino-Smithwho is running for a seat in the House of Delegates.
Rosalind Johnson, District 1, PG County Public School
District, spoke about our schools.
L. Collman discussed the Marlins swim team and ex-
tended an invitation to members to sign up eligible
children and grandchildren for the next season.

June 14, 2011
Trustees in Attendance: P.Buehler, B.Derrick, J.Keating,
R.Dengler, L.Fazio, T.Douville, T.Jacobs
Trustees absent with cause: D.Eisenberg, T.Fleming
Community Members Present: Peg Steiner, Jill BuehlerPresident Derrick called the meeting to order at 7:02.
There was a quorum.
Secretary’s Report: Tricia Douville
The minutes of the May 2011 board meeting were re-
viewed. Trustee Keating made a motion to accept the
minutes as presented; Trustee Dengler seconded; there
was no discussion; the vote passed unanimously.
Treasurer’s Report: Lillian Fazio
The deposit (in question) of $175 from Trustee Jacobs
made last month has been placed in the checking ac-
count and designated as “other”. Trustee Jacobs do-
nated the money and requested it be donated for “Kids
Water Park”.
Trustee Fazio paid Trustee Jacobs for all the money put
out for Montpelier Online. Billing for any internet service
MCA is now paying. HOWEVER – no bill so for internet
services but bills for info (telephone) line.
As of May, 2011, $171,664 has been received in 2011
assessments.
As of June 14, 2011, there is still $18,025 in uncollected
assessments which Trustee Fazio is working on.
On May 27, Trustee Fazio and Corinne Rosen (MCA attor-
ney) drove to Upper Marlboro because [a homeowner ]
filed an intent to defend that was brought for non-payment of assessment dues. [The homeowner] failed to
show up and an Affidavit Judgment was awarded for
$914.40 in favor of MCA. The judge refused to pay
Corinne for her time. The judgment allows MCA to place
liens against any of her real property. Interest continues
to grow on amount owed. Corinne will have to re-file.
M. Hughes will give Corinne the go-ahead to proceed
with the case.
Gypsy Moth Fund: Trustee Fazio contacted several peo-
ple from the USDA and they all feel there is no imminent
danger (they could see for the next 2-3 years) from an-
other gypsy moth infestation. Trustee Fazio suggested it
was time to place these funds into the reserve fund and
suggested a notice be placed in Montpelier Today about
an upcoming vote at the Annual Meeting. The funds are
currently in an interest bearing account: ($32,000.00+ in
a certificate of deposit; Feb.2012 expires). They were
collected in a special assessment years ago; Can a future
board use the $$ for other purpose – may need commu-
nity vote. Need to ask MCA attorney.
Trustee Fazio presented the balance sheet as of May 31,
2011.
Motion was made by Trustee Keating to accept the Treas-
urer’s report; seconded by Trustee Fazio; passed unani-
mously.
ACCC Committee Report: Jack Keating
ACCC met this month; few questions about foreclosed
houses and their yards, fire house being cleaned-
dumpster on driveway; no real issues.
Trustee Douville passed on a question from a neighbor
whether or not he needed to get a shed approved that
was approved by a previous board because he now wants
to change the location of the shed. Trustee Keating said
‘yes’ he does need approval again. Homeowner must
come to meeting with paperwork.
Trustee Derrick asked M. Boddie to see if the Block Cap-
tains would inventory abandoned homes to determine
how many there are. A board member or M. Hughesneeds to go to the bank/mortgage companies and “bird
dog” them to keep the yards maintained. Trustee
Keating will talk to M. Boddie to get a count of homes;
discussed at ACCC meeting how to identify them. Objec-
tive of this is to pressure the owner of the home, or the
bank, to maintain the exterior up to covenant standards.
MCA will not cut grass of these homes. There was an
approximation that there are around 15 abandoned
homes.
Communications Committee – no report
Facilities Committee: Richard Dengler
Work statement for common grounds in email: Nick Mills
picks up trash in field; inspects cans and empties if full;
each Friday empties all cans. Challenge – walking entire
property to inspect for trash.
$70.00 per quarter; Nick needs to learn property
boundaries. Trustee Dengler will supervise. Trustee Der-
rick has observed trash behind the basketball courts.
Picnic table will be moved; bench pushed over for safety;
playground and tennis court bench wood needs to be
replaced.
Feet on benches in tennis courts are digging into court
surface: Trustee Keating discussed with a neighborhood
welder what to do. Jack will see E.J. 6/15 and ask aboutrepairing.
Landscaping – master gardeners- neighbors donating
surplus plants – go to homes and dig up and replant at
pool/common grounds; best one on a volunteer day su-
pervised by master gardeners. Have to wait for Fall or
Spring now.
Volunteer day mission to weed hill and mulch. Any fu-
ture plants must wait for Fall or Spring

David and Mason Gorthy, Mary Derrick, Lucille Young,
Gloria Hynes, Ethelyn Bishop, Rilla Potter, Carmen Booker
Due to the number of new people in attendance the Trus-
tees introduced themselves.
Meeting called to order: 7:04 PM There was a quorum.
Secretary’s Report: Tricia Douville
The minutes of the June, 2011 meeting were reviewed.
Trustee Derrick called for changes/additions/deletion
there were none. Trustee Dengler moved to accept as
submitted; Trustee Keating seconded; approved unani-
mously.
Treasurer’s report: Trustee Lillian Fazio
As of June 30, 2011, we have collected $176,074 in 2011
assessments. Trustee Fazio is going to start contactinghomeowners to let them know of the monetary conse-
quences of their non-payments.
Trustee Fazio sent an email to the MCA Accountant,
Adrian Simmons, concerning the progress of our compila-
tions from 2009 and 2010 (the Audit review of those
years). Mr. Simmons has been out of town. Lillian would
like to be able to provide a report for the annual meeting.
Trustee Keating asked why in ‘fixed assets’ there is
$598.95 in this category? Trustee Fazio said the account-ant wants items tracked on balance sheet for depreciation
purposes. The assumption is that all purchases from the
past have been depreciated to zero and that we should
start now recording all new purchases.
Motion by Trustee Keating to accept treasurer’s report;
2nd
by Trustee Dengler. Unanimously approved.
Committee Reports
ACCC: Toni Byrd was asked by Michael Boddie to attend
and give the report. Ms Byrd reviewed the actions from
the last ACCC meeting. Board members requested a copy
of the ACCC minutes via e-mail.
When a home owner cannot be identified the ACCC noti-fies Dept Environmental Resources to file complaint and
they contact the mortgage/bank. Councilwoman Mary
Lehman has also been asked for assistance in tracking
down the responsible parties for foreclosed homes.
ACCC ‘block captains’ are compiling a list of abandoned
homes from surveys as well as from complaints made byneighbors. Will send current list to Trustee Derrick.
There has been some issue with feral cats and Trustee
Fleming noted that since the MCA can’t control/deal with
animals we should remind the community to call PG
County Services. This has been done and all information
needed is on the http://montpelieronline.org website.
Communications Committee: Trustee Tony Fleming
There has not been a committee meeting for a while and
one has been requested.
The montpelieronline.org website has lists seven realtors
and it was discussed that since we don’t have a way to vet
who gets on the list, we can’t list all realtors in the area
and since we now offer a way to provide advertisement
space for a fee shouldn’t we remove the list. Before re-
moving the list, Trustee Fleming will call each of them and
see if they would like to advertize on our site.
Current advertising fees seem to cover cost of running
website, approximately $25/month.
Facilities Committee: Trustee Richard Dengler
Trustee Fazio noted that she has been walking around the
tennis courts regularly picking up sticks. Trustee Dengler
has had some work done for $200.00 for clean up around
basketball courts. Trustee Derrick reminded the group
that Committee chairs must sign off on work done prior toinvoices being paid.
There is a desire to do a major clean up of the area around
the tennis courts and mulch two sides of the courts
(pathway and soccer field sides). We have one bid that
includes using the free mulch from the currently ongoing
County tree replacement program for $750 from Matt and
Adam’s. Brickman quoted $204 to pick up leaves and
branches.
An area near the old drinking fountain is washed out and
needs dirt. Since there is not a written scope of what ser-
vices we specifically are contracting for, the Board agreed
to have those interested meet and walk the site and write
up a scope so we can get a clear understanding of what isneeded and the cost.
Gloria Hynes, one of our Master Gardeners, reported that

beautification in pool area is an ongoing process. The ivy
and roses were cut back in March and new trees were
planted. Most of the roses have come back but so have
the weeds. She presented a schematic drawing of her
suggestions for additional planting on the pool hill. The
Board voted to approve liriope along the front edge of
the hill at previous meeting. It has not been planted –waiting for cooler planting season.
The Master Gardeners suggested spraying weed killer,
waiting two weeks then pulling the weeds and preparing
ground with new soil for plantings. Discussion ensued
about weeding the back hill – maybe volunteers, maybe
Brickman; weeding only now and planting groundcover
later; regular weeding throughout the summer; paying
someone to weed regularly. Facility Committee will work
with Master Gardeners to come up with plans to weed
and plant in fall.
Since some Montpelier residents have offered plantsfrom their own yards, that need thinning anyway, it was
suggested that we have a volunteer day to provide theworkforce to ‘harvest’ the plants from various home-
owner’s yards and plant them under the direction of the
Master Gardeners.
Pool committee: Trustee Paul Buehler (delayed) Trustee
Bob Derrick offered some pool updates:
A list was handed out detailing what was approved for
purchase at the previous board meetings and the status
of each item.
Pool shade options were discussed: fixed (bolted to con-
crete) year round $5,000-$8,000 approx. in baby pool;
another structure in front of brick planter in big pool
area. No action.
There has been entry after hours into pool over the new
fence near utility boxes. The wire above the fence is bro-
ken in this area. Trustee Derrick suggests barbed wire in
these locations to prevent after hours entry. Discussion
ensued concerning whether or not there has been prop-
erty damage. Noted that it is MCA’s responsibility to do
what we can to prevent entry after hours to prevent the
possibility of, not only of property damage, but more im-
portantly for the safety of people in an unsupervised
swimming pool.
Homeowner David Gorthy voiced his complaint about an
incident his pregnant wife and their son encountered at
the pool: Several young men (17-20 yr old) were playing
a rough game of basketball his wife was slammed and his
child went underwater; the individuals did not respond to
her requests to be careful and in fact ignored her and
continued rough play. She spoke to the gate attendant
who logged the complaint in the daily log. The gate at-
tendant spoke to the pool manager. Mr. Gorthy wrote an
email and had numerous responses from homeowners
some expressing similar experiences with the basketball
situation. Mr. Gorthy was concerned that the guards or
the manager did not do anything in response.
Trustee Derrick assured him that the pool manager was
authorized to maintain a safe environment and can and
does control unruly patrons. Another adult on the prem-
ises, the gate attendant, can also be consulted and asked
to assist if necessary, but ultimately it’s up to the pool
manager or assistant to enforce the rules.
The pool committee and other board members will share
concerns with the pool management company aboutrough housing and basketball playing. One option may be
to use another type of ball that’s not a real basketball.
Carmen Booker spoke about foul language used by some
patrons as well as in one incident by a life guard. Mrs.
Booker complained about youths in pool without adult
supervision. Trustee Fleming asked if there is a state law
for a minimum age allowed in pool without adult supervi-
sion? Mrs. Booker was concerned about the ability to
identify pool employees. Trustee Derrick told her that
employees wear clothing with LIFEGUARD should there
be any question.Footballs and Frisbees can be a danger in pool as well.
Mrs. Hynes witnessed an incident with these and said thelifeguard response to her complaint was that footballs
were allowed in the pool. Serious incidents should be
communicated with Lighthouse pool management imme-
diately. Trustee Keating said the board will act on these
cases by communicating these concerns to Lighthouse
Pools.
Social Committee no update
Security Committee Trustee Richard Dengler
Incidents: Trustee Dengler announced some incidents:
Groceries stolen from a homeowner unloading car; Car
stolen on Cedarbrook Lane; Garage entries.
Aug 2 is National Night out at District 6 substation in
Beltsville.
A speed clock on Montpelier Drive is scheduled for this
month but no radar. Trustee Keating again requested a
radar on Montpelier Drive where the speeding happens,
at the end of the street when people are trying to ‘make
the light’ to Rt 197.
Tennis Committee Trustee Lillian Fazio
Work has been completed on the tennis courts. Don Keis-
ter reported that after a heavy rain, there were no sub-
stantial puddles.Players leaving gate unlock when they leave; may need
sign or self- locking or spring loaded gate
Jim Harkins has been repairing the benches inside andoutside the courts. He has also replaced the warped
court edging boards at the entrance and one on the left
side of the court. Jim said he will paint the boards around
the perimeter of the fence.
In anticipation of cleanup around the tennis courts, Trus-
tee Fazio sprayed the area with Roundup.
According to MCA insurance agent Ken Lines a tennis in-
structor who is not a homeowner would not be covered

for liability in case of accident. Consequently, the in-
structor declined to instruct. A homeowner proposed
that community members do the teaching. It was sug-
gested to offer a “Tennis Clinic” as an alternative to les-
sons.
Old BusinessTrustee Fleming reported that the Governing Docu-
ments have been cleaned up: (re-typed; re-formatted by
scan) and have been re-posted to the website.
For the official archives, Trustee Derrick asked Trustee
Fleming to send the word and .pdf documents to the
MCA Administrative Assistant, Mary Hughes and Secre-
tary Douville. Mary Hughes will also re-print paper cop-
ies for re-sale packets.
Amendments to By-Laws – Trustee Fleming has collected
all the records from the efforts in 2007 to suggest up-
dates to the By-Laws. There are several copies of pro-
posed amendments. Tony needs a few people to go
over these documents to put together one master docu-ment with all proposals from 2007 for ease of reading.
These are proposed changes to By-Laws only. In the
past Member concerns were with why changes were
being made so if we attempt to make any changes in the
future we need to show a chart that lists current lan-
guage, proposed change and reason for the change.
Trustee Derrick said it was probably too late to
review changes this year, publish them in our
Newletter in time to present at the annual
meeting. Trustee Keating made the recom-
mendation that this be priority for next year’s
Board to address. Trustee Derrick mentionedthat some changes might be needed to incor-
porate technology changes. By-Law changes
only need votes of a majority of those attend-
ing an annual meeting. Trustee Fleming sug-
gested the Board agree on changes and then
take them to an annual meeting for a vote. He
will bring changes of By Laws to August meet-
ing that we’ve discussed this past year.

What a terrific swim team season!
The Marlins brought on a new
young dynamic coaching staff:
Coach Brian Abdo, a Marlin alum-
nus, assistant coaches Joe Mills,Marlin Alumnus and Michaela
Guild, Russett Alumna. Our small, but mighty team of 54
swimmers came on board to learn and brush up on their
techniques in freestyle, breast, butterfly and backstroke.
After a few weeks of practice, the mighty Marlins sent
waves across each and every pool in their scheduled 5
dual meets, Divisionals and All Stars. Additionally, July
10, the Marlins hosted the Annual Laurel Invitationals
held at Fairlands Aquatic Center. Swimmers, parents, and
siblings came together and gave 100% of their time and
energy. The whole event ran like a well-oiled machine
and finished in a record breaking time of 3 hours!!! High
Point Trophies were awarded to Dylan Buehler-Boys (13-
14); Thomas Brown de Colstoun – Boys (11-12) and Suz-
anne Mills – Girls (11-12). While we had the smallest
membership in the Prince-Mont Swim League, we
showed our power in spirit, dedication and talent! The
coaches did a fantastic job their first season together.
After swim team practice, Brian Abdo and Michaela Guild
worked on grooming next years’ team by instructing new
swimmers in the basics and the four main strokes. Par-
ents and students were all pleased with the outcome!
Our swimmers not only looked good in the water, but out
of the water as well. We were sporting new designer T-
shirts created by our very own swimmer and “Artist of the Marlins”, Caleb Heidel and Team Parent, Jill Buehler.
Our Marlin Parents and siblings are too be recognized for
all their hard work from helping with pool set-up, timers,
Clerk of Course, Stroke and Turn Judges, Ribbon Writers
to Data Managers and much more to assure all went well.
No Marlin Meet would be complete without the Queen of
Concessions (Mary Derrick) and her Court serving up the
goodies for all to enjoy. Then there was another Marlin
alumnus livening up our meets by doing a terrific job as
“The New Voice of the Marlins” Michael Criscuoli.
The Marlin family talents are not limited just to water but
included many talented singers. We thank the talentedJulia Clemente; Caleb Heidel and the Abdo family of
Brian, Meghan and Kathleen who graced us with their
beautiful renditions of the National Anthem which sig-
naled the start of each meet and Laurel Invitational.
Each year we are delighted to see many returning swim-
mers but we are also excited to welcome new ones. This
season we welcomed several new swimmers: Beam fam-
ily – Trei and Rebecca; Emmett Garnes; Memphy Marti-
nez; Elizabeth Petit; Shannon Blau; Tiffany Perry, Nabila
Moubaran and Anya & Shaelyn Bayer. We hoped they
enjoyed their experience as a Marlin as we have enjoyed
watching them develop into fun, confident swimmers.
As we welcome the new swimmers, we have to say good-bye to those families relocating and swimmers who have
aged out. First, the Flott sisters- Ashley (7) and Hailey
(10) have been Marlin’s for the last 2 years. These two
sisters always had big smiles on their faces and gave it
their all during practice and each meet. We could always
count on their parents, Gary and Nora, to step up to vol-
unteer when needed. The military are relocating Nora
Flott and her family to Hawaii – Aloha!
Five swimmers, who over the years have given us many
exciting wins, new personal and team records, high
honors for their skills, and maturing into the delightful
young adults will be moving on. The swimmers who have
aged out this year are: Matt Derrick; Caleb Heidel; Josh
Mathis; Naomi Mills and Michael Roberts. Also
“swimming out”, after many years of dedication and ser-
vice to the Marlins, are the parents of Michael Roberts,
Sue and John. The Robert Dynasty has come to an end!!
Sue and John have served us well at each meet, usually
behind the concession stand while their 3 sons swam for
the Marlins. We also thank Sue for the many years she
kept our team supplied with ribbons, medals and tro-
phies!! You all will be missed and the Marlin family
wishes you all the best as you enter a new chapter in your
lives.

Marlin's Reach New Heights -- literally!
Our Montpelier Marlin's reached new heights this season -- literally! It was coming down to the wire, our team
needed a win and the coaches knew we had the points we needed IF one of our key swimmers, Naomi Mills, made it
to the July 9 meet against Cheverly. Unfortunately, she was getting ready to leave for camp in North Carolina early
Saturday morning.
…Now, what do we do?????
We activated the Montpelier Marlin Air Express! Yes, we DID!
With some creative thinking by Paul Buehler, we ap-
proached one of our swim team parents to activate
Marlin Air Express! As crazy as this idea sounds, Paul
Buehler, Lynne Collman and Naomi’s parents, Jane and
Charlie and the pilots all helped put the plan into action.
To cover the cost of fuel many of our parents willingly
donated funds.
Naomi was able to participate in the Saturday meet! By
winning all 3 of her individual events and anchoring the
girls relay team for a win; she added those last few criti-
cal points needed to give the Marlins a victory over Che-
verly.
Very early Sunday morning, with a few butterflies in her tummy (she has never flown before), Naomi was whisked off
to Tipton Airport in Fort Meade where she met her pilots, Brad Gimbert and Larry Branche. Naomi and her mom,
Jane, took off for Wilmington, North Carolina where Naomi spent a week at camp. Naomi even picked up the nick-
name at camp – “The Flying Marlin!” She com-
mented that, “My trip was great – only 2 ½
hours flying versus 10 hours on a bus! It made
me realize how committed our team parents
really are! Thank you!”
And, if this was not enough, the pilots and Jane
Mills jumped back in their plane and made itback to Maryland with enough time to help out
at the Laurel Invitationals.
This is why the Montpelier Marlin's ROCK! We
have great swimmers and creative parents who
will literally reach any HEIGHT for the Team!

MONTPELIER TODAY 21 Sept.-Oct. 2011
Hi neighbor,
We have come through a hot dry summer with almost
two weeks in a row of temperatures in the high nineties
and very little rain for most of June and July. This is
what I call a Stressful Summer not only in the stock
market, but in my garden.
Let me explain “Stress” — when the temperature
changes suddenly as it did in June to being hot with no
significant rain for long periods of time, the trees and
shrubs undergo “stress.” Symptoms of drought injury
to trees can be sudden or may take up to two years to
be revealed. Drought injury symptoms on tree leaves
include wilting, curling at the edges and yellowing. De-
ciduous leaves may develop scorch and browning, Ev-
ergreen needles turn yellow or brown. In continued
drought leaves may be smaller, drop prematurely or
stay brown.
Often, drought stress may not kill a tree outright, but
weaken it so that in the Spring of the following year it
will be vulnerable to insect borers which will invade the
bark and eat the integument between the bark and
inside trunk and kill the tree.
For two years in a row, I have witnessed my Queen
Anne Magnolia drop its leaves in mid-summer then
produce new small leaves and a few flowers, but no
flowers in the Spring when that tree is usually a show
stopper. So I need to make a mental note not to just
water for a few minutes, but soak the soil for twenty
minutes twice a month from June through September if we haven't had significant or heavy rainfall.
Another aspect of tree maintenance is mulching
around your trees with four inches of organic mulch to
reduce moisture loss. Put bark mulch 6 inches from the
trunk of the tree. Do not fertilize a tree that is under
drought stress. Salts in fertilizer may burn roots where
there is insufficient water.
Fall watering is so important because it may allow the
tree to survive. Trees can not absorb the snow water
when they are dormant. You might be thinking water
costs money, but consider the beauty that a tree or
plant gives you when it is blooming in all its glory and
the expense of cutting down or digging up the roots of
a diseased and dying specimen.
If you have a new tree planted by the county this sum-
mer, it must be watered deeply twice a month or it will
not survive the winter and “let’s be real” the county
isn't going to replace it. They have about $1500 in-
vested in the replacement project per tree.
Planting for next Spring:
There is nothing like visualizing your garden plots filled
with yellow and white daffodils, followed by tulips in all
the colors of the rainbow. These bulbs let you know
Spring is here. You can purchase bags of bulbs for as
little as $13.00 for eighty bulbs. After you have dug the
hole for the bulb, add one teaspoon of bone meal per
bulb. If you are bothered by squirrels, place a plastic
basket that tomatoes or berries come in upside down
over the bulbs. The bulbs will grow through the holes.
Use lots of mulch to cover the bulbs. Plant three, five
or seven bulbs to a hole and make sure the tip of the
bulb is pointing up.
Rose:
The warm muggy nights of Summer causes the roses to
battle black spot but come the cool nights and breezy
days of Fall many roses will bloom as they did in June.
This will be the last time to fertilize. Make sure to dis-
card any leaves with black spot, spray with fungenex
alternating with dacinal. Remember roses "need their
own space" so leave space between them and other
specimens.
