Designed to hang, the Down Under Pot allows your plants to grow from the bot- tom of the pot. One of the design features of the Down Under Pot is an internal reser- voir, at the base of the pot. Th e reservoir catches water where the root sys- tem is developing, thus feeding the plant and providing the root system with a wall upon which to anchor. It’s a simple process to plant. Start the normal way, with the pot full of “soil” and the plant at the top. Allow the pot to remain in this “nor- mal” position until you are satisfi ed that the plant is established. Th en invert the pot and hang it using the wire, which is already fi tted to the pot for the purpose. Th e plant has established its root system and is now growing in the potting mix in the Down Under Pot. It is the design of the pot and the established root sys- tem of the plant that keep both the plant and the potting mix from falling out. When the pot is in the initial posi- tion, sit it in a shallow container to keep the potting mix moist while the plant establishes. Once the pot has been in- verted and is hanging in position, water and fertilize through the top of the pot. C James Nursery has four sizes and 20 colors of Down Under Pots in addi- tion to eight diff erent colors of Martha Washington geraniums, herbs, succu- lent and other plants to be potted for a small fee. If you have a Down Under Pot, clean it out, bring your coconut fi ber and we’ll repot it for you for $7. Stop by our booth to learn more.

Celia’s Gourmet Foods It’s okay to play with your food! Go ahead — escape to the Florence Home and Garden Show and taste some of the fi nest balsamic vinegars and olive oils on the planet, then learn how to play with fl avors for easy cook- ing ideas and new ingredients. As the pioneering company of authentic Italian barrel-aged Balsamic Vinegars since 1998, Celia’s Gourmet Foods knows the importance of using only the fi nest in- gredients when we hand-craft our small batch vinegars and olive oils. We love to play with fl avors and each bottle holds an original recipe, made with all-natural ingredients. You won’t fi nd any added sugars, fi llers, colors or chemicals, and all are gluten free. Did you know that Balsamic Vinegars were fi rst noted in Rome in the 1400s, referred to as SABA? But while the vinegars have been around for centuries, they have only been in America since the 1960s. Balsamic vinegar is simply a grape must (cooked grape juice) which is ace- tifi ed to become vinegar. Th e process of making grape juice and balsamic vin- egar is intricate and time-consuming, closely regulated, monitored and con- trolled by the Consorizo Aceto Balsami- co di Modena. Th e group assess all the Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Mode- na, and only permits it to be bottled if it fulfi ls their criteria. Aft er stomping and cooking the grape must is aged for years in a series of wooden barrels made from diff er- ent woods, such as oak, chestnut, juni- per and cherry. At least three diff erent woods must be used during the ageing process. As it ages in the barrels, con- tact with the wood gives the darkness of color and fl avors, with oak an essential fl avor, cherry giving it sweetness, chest- nut for color, etc. Barrel aging also al- lows the must to evaporate very slowly through the wood, making it sweet and dense. Th e rules of the Consorzio stipulate the minimum aging periods for the Tra- ditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena be at least 12 Years. So come sample our fl avors, learn more about balsamic history, and learn about the amazing health benefi ts this elixir holds. Expand your recipe fi le, discover im- pressive drink and dessert ideas — bal- samic vinegars can be like tea or cock- tails — plus we will provide you with cooking tips so the deep, rich fl avors of all our products can enhance the recipes you prepare.
