Title: Flaming sumacs in trouble in Wimberley TX
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:I planted three flaming sumacs last fall and all leafed out this spring. Then, early this month all the leaves turned brown on one and it appears to have died. Today I noticed that a second one is doing the same. But this time I noticed at the base of the trunk weeping brown spots, possibly caused by an insect. I'm wondering what type of natural treatment I can use on the remaining tree.
Our Native Plant Database does not have a sumac with the common name "flaming sumac" so we are betting that Rhus lanceolata (prairie sumac) which also has the common name "flameleaf sumac" was sold to you with the trade name 'Flaming Sumac.' Sumacs are difficult to transplant because they are a suckering plant and making sure you get some roots along with the sucker is sometimes a problem.
In terms of what is causing the decline of your trees, the first thing that comes to mind is transplant shock. You transplanted them at the right time, and they leafed out in the Spring, but sometimes transplant shock can show up as much as 3 years later. If you purchased the plant in a pot from a nursery, it may not have been properly placed in the pot, with damage to the roots, or even have been in the pot too long and become rootbound, which would mean as the tree developed in the Spring, it needed to put roots out into the native soil around it, but the roots were running round and round in the root ball and could not break out. In our research, we learned that too much irrigation or fertilization can lead to plant decline. As with most native plants, the members of the Rhus genus do not need fertilization. The sumac does, however, need some deep watering the first year it is in place, if there are not regular rains.
On the subject of disease, we found one reference to fusarium wilt in sumacs, but when we researched fusarium wilt, we discovered that it is mostly tomatoes that are affected by this, and that cotton root rot is also a fusarium wilt. But we also found a reference to verticillium wilt in sumacs, and then found several research articles on that. It sounds much more plausible that this is the problem, considering the description of symptoms that you cited. From the USDA Forest Service on Rhus Copallina (closely related) we extracted this rather depressing quotation:
"Verticillium wilt causes wilting of individual stems, followed by death of the foliage. Eventually the entire plant dies. Prune out infected branches. Do not replant in the same spot with sumac or other susceptible plants."
Verticillium wilt is a soil-borne disease, and treatments for it are few and chancy. Usually the recommendation is to get those plants out and destroy them, and then be careful not to plant another woody plant which can also be susceptible in the same area, Here are two websites with lists of susceptible and not-so-susceptible woody plants when you are considering replacement:
Trees for You, Verticillium Wilt, a Disease that Attacks Trees from Inside Out
University of Minnesota Extension Verticillium Wilt of Trees and Shrubs
From Google, here are pictures of Verticillium Wilt in Sumac.
We are sorry we couldn't give you better news. We are not plant pathologists and can only guess, based on our research, what the real problem is. For some more information, we would suggest you contact the Texas A&M AgriLIFE Extension Office for Hays County.

Received my King-size comforter lightning fast last week - only a few days after ordering. Packaged nicely. Cover is very soft as should be expected for 800 thread count. However, this King is smaller than the King comforter it is replacing (and it's on a Queen-size bed). Sizing doesn't seem accurate to me. I didn't like how thin the cotton cover was. I can see the polyester filling right through the material. Another thing I didn't like is that the stuffing was not distributed very evenly in the comforter. I can already see the filling bulk up in certain areas. It was warm though, so that's good. Also, the color is white, unlike the picture. I was expecting more off-white. It still works though. I would say that I've had better comforters for much cheaper than this.
This this comforter is both light in weight and warm. Best of all it doesn't contain down or feathers. I'm not allergic to them but a lot of folks are, and finding a quality alternative is not always easy. Once I pop it into the duvet, nobody could tell it is not down by the feel. I am very pleased with this animal friendly product.
If you're looking for an affordable comforter that looks and feels much more expensive don't even give this a second thought - buy now. Very light so it's easy to clean and maneuver but does keep you warm and comfortable. This is not a heavy-duty warmer though - if you need some serious warmth look elsewhere. The subtle stripe highlights in the fabric give it a much classier and more expensive look than the plain ones. Washed it with no problems so far - no bunching of the inside material.
We really love the feel of this comforter. It is light weight, but fluffy. It also fits into the duvet cover well. The only problem I have encountered is that the filling tends to clump in some areas, so I must shake and fluff it to keep it from looking lumpy on the bed.
Although this comforter is warm and cozy it looks strange because the filler remains in lumps in each of the sections rather than appearing smooth and full. I did not return it because it was too expensive to mail back and I hoped that the lumps would go down eventually. However, it remains a bit lumpy in appearance. Even taking it to a laundry and fluffing it up in a large dryer did not help the fill to smooth out. I would have gotten another brand had I known that this was the way it would look. I also learned that not everything can be returned and somethings are extremely expensive to return. Read the reviews before you buy your comforter.
I bought it for a grandson and wife. He us used to down comforters and she could not stand down and called it prickley. I thought the alternative comforter would be a happy medium for them. It is being used and is solving that problem
This comforter is pretty and is good quality for the price; however it has been pretty hard getting wrinkles out after mulitple attempts to remove them. Packing was generic looking and there is no brand label on the comforter itself, which would be helpful in finding other bedding by the same maker.
It is a cover in the winter - not really what you'd expect from a dawn comforter at the price
Comfortable. Looks good. Doesn't quite feel like an 800 thread count comforter, but each quilted cushion has even cushioning. No pilling noted, but I have not washed this item yet.
I like it, just like others, it clumps up and needs to be fluffed, but always comfy.

Facts and Events
Antiochus III the Great (; c. 241 – 187 BC, ruled 222–187 BC) was a Seleucid Greek king and the 6th ruler of the Seleucid Empire. He ruled over the region of Syria and western Asia towards the end of the 3rd century BC. Rising to the throne at the age of eighteen in 223 BC, his early campaigns against the Ptolemaic Kingdom were unsuccessful, but in the following years Antiochus gained several military victories. His traditional designation, the Great, reflects an epithet he briefly assumed. He also assumed the title "Basileus Megas" (which is Greek for "Great King"), the traditional title of the Persian kings.
Declaring himself the "champion of Greek freedom against Roman domination", Antiochus III waged a war against the Roman Republic in mainland Greece in autumn of 192 BC only to be defeated.

- I was approached by the client to design the logo and stationary for her PR company Pigeon Post. After numerous attempts I finally figured out a way to make the monograph PP look like a pigeon which came to be the logo.
Before there was a postal system pigeons used to be messengers, delivering letters on behalf of their owners. I used the di-line of a stamp as a mechanism to apply the logo throughout the stationary. I also created the typeface for Pigeon to compliment the logo.
I was fortunate enough to have a client that loved paper and the art of letterpress printing as much as I did. We chose Stephen 330gm paper stock to letterpress and foil the business cards.

Last Friday, we as YWAM Boston started the second part of our Discipleship Training School's outreach with our show Encounter. We are taking this show all down the East Coast and bringing it as far down into the South as Mississippi and ending at YWAM Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania. We've been on the road for a week now, filling our days with ministry, setting up, tearing down, and packing ourselves into the van and driving to our next location. With this blog we are inviting you into what we are doing these next five weeks and showing you a glimpse of the work that God is doing in and through us.
Two days ago, we were in Lancaster City, Pennsylvania, at a ministry center called Teen Haven, a branch off of Water Street Missions. During our ministry time after the show, when Jeremy calls us all out and asks us to pray for individuals in the crowd, one of our students, Dominic Zinnanti, went up to a group of three twelve-year-olds. When he asked if he could pray for them, they looked up at him and said "we actually want to pray with each other." As soon as they started to pray, Dominic realized that two of the boys had just given their lives to Christ, but the amount of zeal and passion that they already had for Christ surpassed anything he could have imagined.

Dr, Mac set up and we are partners with our clam collector and farmer in French Polynesia. As his exclusive distributor in the US we import thousands of these clams annually. Over the last 5 years we have handled tens of thousands of clams. All of these clams available in the US and worldwide come through our partnership.
We offer for sale wild collected and cultured clams. Generally cultured clams are easier to keep than wild collected clams. All our clams come directly from the farmer and collector, from our own collection station that we set up.
In French Polynesia Maxim clams are very abundant, found in the hundreds of millions, in the remote islands and less common to rare in other areas such as Tahiti or Bora Bora. Our clams are farmed or collected in the remote Austral islands. Dr. Mac has worked closely with the government of French Polynesia and has met with the President and other authorities to allow for the legal culturing and export of these clams!
In the wild many French Polynesian Maxima clams do not have a lot of mantle extension, some do and some do not so this is perfectly normal. All wild collected clams are freshwater dipped and held for two weeks at our collection station before export to us and we then also quarantine them here. All clams are healthy when we sell them.
Cultured clams are extremely hardy and do well in most reef aquariums, wild collected clams are hardy but more difficult to keep than the easy to keep cultured clams. Wild collected clams must have very intense lighting to survive. Many of our customers report that clams do better in their tanks that have larger fish populations that are well fed. While we do not recommend specifically feeding clams, they do better in systems were they can utilize dissolved organics in the water from feeding fish in the tank.
Water Condtions & Lighting
Tridacna Clams need strong lighting to survive long term because they receive most of their nutrition from the products of photosynthesis, we highly recommend 250 or 400 watt metal halide lighting or equivelant, such as intense LEDs. Clams, corals, and all invertebrates require saltwater that has full strength natural saltwater parameters: Specific Gravity 1.025-1.027, alkalinity 8dKH, calcium 450+, Magnesium 1300+. Clams have a better survival rate in tanks that are not the most nutrient poor. Clams do well in tanks where there is a good fish population that are well fed thus resulting in slightly higher nutrients in the water that clams then utilize.
Coloration in clams is greatly affected by viewing angle. All of our photos are 'top down shots. Color will vary in your tank especially if viewed from the side and under different lighting. Photos shown are accurate in our tanks photographed under T-5 fluorescent lighting. Due to changes in viewing angles and with so many lighting possibilities in different tanks you may see different coloration.

Pittsburgh, PA (PRWEB) December 03, 2012
The Western PA Real Estate Investors Association is proud to announce a partnership with Tambellinis Ristorante of Pittsburghs Cultural district, to bring Rich Dads Cash Flow game to the Pittsburgh Area.
The Cash Flow game is the brain child of Robert Kiyosaki, the best-selling author of the Rich Dad, Poor Dad book series. Mr. Kiyosaki created this game as a stand-alone educational tool, to teach people how to get out of the rat race and attain financial freedom. Game players choose from a variety of investment options in an attempt to replace their income with passive, investment income. The first player to purchase his or her dream property is declared the winner of the game.
There is no other game that so playfully illustrates the goals of the Pittsburgh based, Western PA Real Estate Investors Association. The local investing club has a mission statement that includes teaching ordinary people how to achieve financial freedom in any economy, just like Robert Kiyosakis products do. Club members Charlie and Janet Pelligrini are also real estate investors along with running their very successful downtown restaurant. So there is a natural synergy that ties this very popular game, to the well know restaurant, to the Pittsburgh real estate market.

Timing Gladiolus
I am trying to grow a bunch of gladiolus for my upcoming wedding on Sept 21st. Can anybody provide some insight on how well gladiolas grow in the PNW. I am located in Auburn, Wa (zone 8a) and most info says they will bloom in 75-90 days. I am wondering in our weather if that still holds true. The soil they are going in is good quality and they are going to get 6 hours full sun everyday from 10am to 4pm the rest will be partial-sun and shade.
I have 110 Green Star, 108 Plum Tart, 90 random purple (from hollandbulbfarm), and 90 random white (from hollanbulbfarm). My plan was to stagger plant them so the projected bloom date will be Sept 16th 5 days before the wedding so the buds should be mid way in flowering. So i would plant 40% on June 9th (90 days out), 40% on June 26th (82 days out), and 20% on July 4th (75 days) out).
How long will the flowers last on the plant if they bloom early (i am guessing 2 weeks), is 90/82/75 days to bloom realistic in this zone, and is targeting a bloom time of 5 days before the wedding about right? Anybody have any insights into timing gladiolas?

Tom Cruise has been at the top of his game for the past 20+ years and he is showing no signs of slowing down. Tom has a number of movie projects lined up over the coming years and he is still insistent on doing the majority of his own stunts in these films.
Next up for Tom Cruise is the movie Oblivion, which is released later this year. Oblivion sees Tom Cruise playing a man living in the unrecognisable future, whose confrontation with his past sees him heading off on a journey of redemption and discovery, in a bid to save the whole of man kind.
As well as starring Tom Cruise, Oblivion also stars Morgan Freeman, Olga Kurylenko, Andrea Riseborough, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Melissa Leo. Oblivion is directed by Joseph Kosinski, based on the screenplay by Karl Gajdusek and Michael Debruyn, and is set to be released on April 12 in the UK and April 19 in the US.
For now though, take a look at the new Oblivion trailer, starring Tom Cruise and share your thoughts on the upcoming movie with us, by sounding of in the comments section at the bottom of the page.

Some lawmakers want to create new criminals by making bad laws regarding the production of pot. Isn't it enough that the victimless crime of personal use has done such great harm to so many?
The advantage of a new war on those producing cannabis as a cash crop is small, if not altogether non-existent. Do we want more enforcement assets expended; more people arrested; more people in jail; more people losing their livelihood. The question is, is it worth it?
The Farmer's Wife
by Norm Olson
We left the plow there in the field
Where Dad died that April day.
We sold the horses and the cows
And gave the pig away.
We begged our Mother to go with us,
But she begged us there to stay.
And we found her holding the dinner bell
And buried her in May.
Is there anything good that can come out of Nikiski's crime wave? Well, yes.
The community met together on Monday evening to discuss the problems with drugs and the thefts spawned by junkies. In a packed house, many had plenty to say while others waited for answers — answers that were sparse and rather oblique.
Alaska's finest were present to give their obligatory reassurance to the group, sans any really meaty answers to the problems. They are working, but they also face our judicial system that is bent on penalizing the victim rather than the criminal.
The much-touted Nikiski Community-Against Crime meeting on Wednesday night left me angry and frustrated. On the one hand the outpouring of community support was gratifying. On the other, the same non-solutions to Nikiski's crime problem were familiar and short of any positive answers.
Need For Heed
By Norm Olson, Nikiski
Speeding down the highway, the wind against my face
With my Honda underneath me, I raced for open space.
The throttle fully open, no faster could I fly.
Telephone polls became a blur as I went roaring by.
Then all of a sudden it happened. I sensed my end of luck.
For pulling from a side road was a loaded gravel truck!
The lights went out in Georgia when I hit that load of dirt
And the doctors wouldn't tell me, just how badly I was hurt.
I think I speak for the entire peninsula when I question "where is the real time, up-to-date news" on the fire? Folks are trying to get information and the media is woefully lacking in providing it. The news provides what has happened yesterday and provides it in such a way that seems detached from the resident's real need for facts. But what is happening NOW?
OK, the parade has ended. The picnic goodies are put away, and the guys with the funny hats and flags have gone home. Memorial Day is over. Did you do your part? No, I'm not talking about turning out for a rally or watching aging veterans marching by. I'm talking about what you will do, now that you know that your veterans are left to die by the Veterans Administration. I'm talking about the neglected ones, those who grasp at empty promises that they will be cared for promptly, adequately, mercifully, and with the dignity they deserve.
Let's talk about lock downs.
My four grandchildren came home (Thursday) after the Nikiski schools locked down. Why there was a lock down isn't important.
I asked them if they were frightened during that time. As expected, fear is repressed and in spite of the games they played and the engaging conversations they had, they all said yes, they were afraid. Now I wondered why. Why are my grandchildren frightened during a school lock down?
Fear is natural and has a good purpose. It makes us do the right things to protect ourselves.
Fact: Alaska's mineral industry was worth almost $3 billion in 2009, but paid less than 2 percent to state and local governments, counting all forms of taxes,
fees, and royalties. Taxes on other industries are much higher: the oil and gas industry paid about 20 percent of its market value, and the fishing industry paid around 5 percent. Coal mining also returns around 5 percent to the state. (Source: www.groundtruthtrekking.org/Issues/MetalsMining/Mining-Taxes-Revenue-Ala...)
In reference to "Young Defends States' Rights" (Clarion, Feb. 20), Congressman Don Young's words are appreciated, but actions speak louder than words. Why is Alaska treated as a federal colony, existing only to be plundered by the federal central government and its resources stolen by foreign corporations?
The Clarion quotes the Congressman as saying "... the country has lost states' rights ... a centralized monarch is governing the country. Alaska is being abused ... states' rights will be lost unless individuals speak up to preserve the republic status of the nation."

My sources for making memorials are
1. The old newspapers at Kentuckiana Digital Library Home
2. Lincoln County, Kentucky Genealogy
3. Rootsweb Presents Kentucky Death Records
4. Lincoln County, Kentucky Tombstone Inscriptions & 1850 Census by Shirley Dunn
(Memorials have been made for everyone listed in this book except for a few that had no death dates)
5. Bicentennial History of Waynesburg, Kentucky and Southern Lincoln County (Memorials have been made for everyone listed in this book except for a few that had no death dates)
6. Pulaski County KY Cemetery Records, 3 vols.
I include as much information on the memorials that I can find so others that are searching can determine if it is the correct person they are looking for. A memorial with name, birth & death dates isn't always enough information to determine if it's the right person you are looking for. Some birth dates I have taken from the age of a person in their obituary which isn't always correct and just because dates are written in stone doesn't always mean they are correct either. I have come across some obituaries that gives a different burial location than the tombstone inscription books or the cemeteries listed at Lincoln County Genealogy.
~~~~The newspaper images at Kentuckiana Digital Library are in the public domain and can be used on Find A Grave. They ask that credit be given to the Kentucky Digital Library as the source for the images. For those who want to use these newspapers go to Kentuckiana Digital Library Home and click on newspapers. ~~~
For the people that think you need a picture of the tombstone for every memorial - not everyone has a tombstone and this is not Find A "Tombstone." Sometimes the only way to Find A "Grave" is from an obituary. Many tombstones have been removed from cemeteries that were on farmland because the land was later used for farming and tombstones have been damaged or destroyed by farm animals and people. Some old cemeteries have been bulldozed so the land can be used for something else. I even read about a woman that removed a tombstone from one cemetery and put it in another cemetery. This is one of the reasons why I try to do as much research as I can on the memorials I make. Many contributors require proof of relationship before links are made. I consider birth, marriage, obituaries and family relationships that are included on my memorials as proof of relationship.
I am only notified when photo requests for tombstone pictures are fulfilled but not when others are added to the memorials and I "really appreciate" all of them BUT if they can't be read because they are covered with dirt, grass & leaves they are of little use. Please take the time to clean the bird poop, dirt, leaves & grass off so the stone can be presentable.

Beulah Morrison Messer/Beulah Sprinkles Messer
Hello Joyce, Again Thanks for all you do. I have an issue with my family tree I am confused about. I have a Great Grandmother named Beulah Sprinkles Messer, and a wife of my Great Grand Uncle named Beulah Morrison Messer. (I think) The confusion comes in because I see their births and deaths as the same in a few documents:
Name Mrs Beulah Messer
Spouse Henry Messer
Father William Sprinkles
Mother Allice Naylor aka (Alice)
Birth 30 Apr 1898 - Washington, Kentucky
Death 20 May 1926 - Jefferson - Age: 28.
Then we have a grave stone in Buffalo Springs Cemetery on Beulah Morrison Messer wife of Levi Hubble Messer, shows birth 1898 death 1926 the same dates. Any help you can offer would be great!

After pledging not to gamble, Barkley to play poker for charity
LAS VEGAS -- Charles Barkley is headed back to the tables in Las Vegas to play in a poker tournament about a month after pledging not to gamble. He says it's all for charity.
The former NBA star is scheduled to play in a celebrity poker tournament at the 2008 World Series of Poker on July 2.
Players in the poker tournament put up $5,000 to play, and are asked to donate at least half their winnings. The event raised more than $500,000 last year and finished with the top two players agreeing to pool their winnings and donate the full $350,000 to the cause. Of the field of 167, 18 players won money.
Barkley, now an NBA analyst for Turner Network Television, has pledged to donate all of his winnings to one of the two designated charities if he wins next month, said Sal Petruzzi, a TNT spokesman.
Barkley said on the air during the NBA playoffs he wasn't going to gamble for "the next year or two" after he was sued by a Las Vegas Strip casino in May for failing to pay $400,000 in gambling markers, or loans.
The 45-year-old Barkley repaid his debt to the Wynn Las Vegas casino along with a $40,000 district attorney's fee.
"For right now, the next year or two, I'm not going to gamble," Barkley said afterward. "Just because I can afford to lose money doesn't mean I should do it."
Dallas Mavericks point guard Jason Kidd said this week that Barkley was keeping to his word when he saw him at a May golf tournament in Palm Springs, Calif.
"We were at a casino and he said he was on the wagon," Kidd said during a conference call to promote a celebrity golf tournament. "He's strong. He didn't gamble. I think Charles, once he decides not to do something, I think he's pretty good at keeping his word."
Barkley played 16 NBA seasons for the Philadelphia 76ers, Phoenix Suns and Houston Rockets, and played on the USA Olympic "Dream Team" in 1992 and 1996. He was an 11-time NBA All-Star and league MVP in 1993.
He has talked openly about his gambling, estimating during a May 2006 interview with ESPN that he'd gambled away about $10 million over the years.

purple/red fountain grass
I have 4 containers of Rubrum on my deck which were gorgeous last year. I cut them back - maybe too early. They are still brown altho it is almost March. How long should I wait to see if they will come back before buying new ones?
I forgot to mention that we had an unusually cold wither this year - sometimes in the low to mid twenties at night. From what I'm reading her, maybe the cold killed it. But if I want to wait and see, when would new shoots normally begin to appear?
Pennisteum setaceum 'Rubrum' - purple fountain grass - is not hardy in zones below 9 or 10. It will experience dieback in temperatures much below 40F. It is considered an annual in all but the warmest areas of the country. You will need to replace them.
Hi versatilegardener,
I'm in zone 8b and have not cut my Pennisetum Rubrum back yet. I'm close to the coast, so temps are a bit better for me than even 20 minutes inland. I find that their survival is hit and miss here, but if I cut back early I almost guarantee them not surviving. If I leave purple fountain grasses up until new growth is flushing out at the base and then cut back, they often survive. Looks like they may be ok this year. Larger clumps down the street at our nearby Starbucks already have new growth coming up. They planted theirs 3 years ago and have not replaced them yet. We had temps here dipping down to 30 (even slightly below) this winter. Low 20's likely did the grasses in where you are. I've seen some neighbors bag theirs for protection, like they do with some of the lesser hardy palms in our area. That may help as well in future winters, but for now I bet you need to replant.
I also find that Pennisetum Rubrum that has survived a cold winter with borderline freezes will have a hardened off base and not as much nice fleshy growth that year. They'll push more aerials, get floppier, and just not look quite as nice. I guess it comes down to $ when deciding to replace them or not at that point.
