How is Your Garden? Oak and Walnut Trees Furnish Acid Compost and Maple Leaves Neutral Reaction By LILLIE L. MADSEN THERE is a difference in leaf mould which is not always suf ficiently noted. The ordinary gar den compost made of decayed garden material, maple leaves or grass, is often neutral or even alkaline In reac- t i o n. The oak f. and walnut trees furnish the acid compost. Oak leaves are slow in decaying, tak ing from three to four years to com pletely de- C O m pose, as a XJUle H. Madsen rule. It seems the slow-decaying materials are those that furnish the acid condition. Those of you who have an azalea or rhododen dron bed will do well to accumu-, late your oak leaves. If you keep a compost heap, turn the leaves from time to time. Some fol low the practice of putting the leaves right onto the shrub bor der. If elm, maple and linden leaves are used on a border of acid-loving shrubs, aluminum sulphate can be used to retain the acid, quality of the soil. Bonemeal or Not? I have been advised against the use of bonemeal on azaleas. I am rather in favor of it still. For five years I petted along a native azalea, experimenting with this and with that. . It never bloomed, nor did it grow well. Two years ago last spring I gave it a trow elful of bonemeal and last year it grew several inches and produced several blooms. Of course, too much bonemeal may tend to neu tralize the soil. But I always use peat moss around my azaleas, and occasionally do giTe them a small dose of aluminum sulphate. From time to time some one asks if the Lake Labish soil would not be good for azaleas and rho dodendrons. It is peat, they say. Acid for Azaleas While I have not seen a chem ical analysis of this soil, I would Judge it" to be alkaline or at least neutral. If I am correct, a strict ly acid soil does not produce such good onions, celery and lettuce as does the Lake Labish ground, and a strictly acid soil is necessary for the healthy growth of rhododen drons and azalea. , Other gardeners inform me they have removed their alkaline soil and filled peat moss and sand in about their acid-loving shrubs and still these do not grow as they should. The peat moss we buy in bales, while it is splendid for acid loving plants, is often deficient in plant food as is also sand. A fer tilizer roust be added. A special acid fertilizer, recommended by blueberry and huckleberry grow ers is made up of ten pounds cot tonseed meal to four of acid phos phate and two of sulphate of pot ash. If .your soil has become alka line through the use of too hard water, it can again be remedied by the addition of aluminum sul phate. This should be used at about the rate of one pound to 10 square feet. Queries Numerous I am pleased to note the amount of questions I receive on care and culture of azaleas and rhododen drons. The Willamette valley is particularly suited to the culture of these shrubs. We are becoming noted - for their bloom daring spring. Visitors to our community haye come to taetk of "azalea blooming time" as we do of Christmas or rose time. It is a very definite period, worthy of their remembering. There are those who plan their visits to the Willamette valley for azalea time. The shrub covers a long period of OREGON BEAUTY SHOP Permanent Oil Waves 91.50 Special; $3.25 ; Supreme Oil dth Fir Ore Bldz y ' Phono B7S4 'ft 1 bloom and I believe we can do rorse than plant more and. more of them. Another shrub which has gain ed considerable attention for our section of the country and which should be used more than it is, is Daphne mezerum. One looks at it, and from its appearance Judges it belongs besides the azal leas and sets it here without fur ther investigation. When it does not thrive as it should, one won ders what is wrong with it. The location is wrong. It may look as if it belonged to the azalea ajnd rhododendron beds but it is a decided mistake to consign it to these. The Daphne likes a sunny place and an alkaline soil. This particular variety blooms very early, usually in February. It is very fragrant and grows about three feet-high. The blossoms are pjnk. Last year was a particu larly good year for the daphne and wherever they grew they at tracted wide attention. About Daphnes The Daphne may be set out In the spring even after it is in iU bloom, for it comes balled. But it is better to place it this fall if possible. Another Daphne which is very desirable is the little 18-inch cieorun, which gives pink blooms id both April and September. I Question: Will you please tell rrte again in your column the name of the evergreen Abelia? What color i3 it and when does it bloom? that kind of soil should it have, Sun or shade? j Answer: Abelia grandiflora. It iai in bloom almost throughout the entire summer. The flowers are wjiite, flushed pink. It prefers a light, peaty soil, and does not ob ject to- sira. Question: Please give me the names of a few broadleaved ever green shrubs that are no taller than three feet? Kroadleaf Shrubs Answer: The daphne, berberis Julianae, berberis darwinft. rock cotoneaster (C. horizantalis), Kal mia augustifolia. Question: My home is not far from the railroad tracks. Our soil is none too good. We can't dq much about it. Neighbors tell me that nothing will grow here. Their lawns look like it. Aren't there some shrubs which are not too particular? I'd like to try it out. We have plenty of water for summer use. Answer: By all means set an example to the neighborhood. Among the shrubs which will tol erate adverse conditions (but will' respond to all the care yoo can glfe them) are the Japanese bar berry (B. thunbergl), Ibota privet (Ligustrum Ibota), winter honey suckle (Lonciera fragrantissima), Vanhoute splrea, the common li lac, laurustinus, Deutzia Scabra.
