REDDING – Simpson University for Seniors is encouraging early regis- tration for the following classes, offered on Mon- days, Wednesdays and Fridays, starting the March 3: Seven Events that Shaped Christian Doc- trine: This course will trace the development of the doctrines of the Church from the time of Constantine until the split between eastern and western Christen- dom in 1054. With only a few exceptions, they are the doctrines that Roman Catholic, Ortho- dox, and Protestant churches have in com- mon. But they were hotly debated in the first Christian millennium, and required councils convened by emperors and backed by state authority to resolve. This informa- tion is vital to the under- standing of the church today. Presented by Fr. Jeffrey Smith. Understanding the Wonder of the Natural World: A look at the physics of blue skies, sunsets, rainbows, the heavens, sounds, the human body, and other things you have always marveled at.

Everyone in my small town is jubi- lant! Even the creek behind my house is merrily rolling along on its way to the river. But most of all, the greatest joy is apparent in my flowers. As you walk down the sidewalk to my front door, you are greeted by the lovely fragrance of my daphne. The sweet scent greets you even before you notice the large shrub with its understated pink and white flowers. It is called Daphne odora "Aureomarginata'. Not even the rain can dampen the lovely per- fume. Bring some cuttings inside and your entire house will smell exquisite. Before you reach the steps to my front door, you will also see gaily colored primroses dressed in bright blues, purples, yellows, pinks, magentas, oranges and even red. To me they bring cheer and hope of spring to come. They can be found in any nursery –often in six-packs which are affordable in any budget! They are easy to grow and are reli- able perennials. I have them inter- mixed with hyacinths and Virginia Blue Bells. Hellebores are another delight in my garden which have been in bloom since December. They are exceptional evergreen perennials which flower for several months in winter and spring. Usually the flow- ers are nodding. They are lovely when displayed floating in a wide bowl. My favorite is Hellebore x ballardiae called 'Pink Frost' because its flowers are outward fac- ing. They are all charming and a must for any gardener. Want a flower guaranteed to be deer resistant and require minimum care—not even summer watering?! Try the daffodil. I have many of them in my gardens. Some are early bloomers, some mid season and some late season. If you enjoy daf- fodils as much as I do you will want to extend their bloom time by buy- ing all three! They make great cut flowers but with a word of caution: they secrete a substance when freshly cut which causes other flow- ers to wilt. To avoid this soak them over night, then rinse. Then they can be used in a mixed display. And the last of my choice winter perennials is the Bergenia. Berge- nias are fabulous evergreens that are not fussy. I enjoy their rosettes of large green leaves which creates much added texture to the garden bed—a wonderful bold groundcov- er mat. Their 12 to 18 inch clusters of pink flowers add sparkle and warmth even during the chilly win- ter season. Try all five of these sensational perennials and, you too, can enjoy an early spring in winter! The Red Bluff Garden Club meets on the last Tuesday of every month. This month it is 12:30 p.m. Feb. 25 at the Union Hall on 12889 Baker Road. The speaker will be Kristina Miller and she will be speaking about Composting and Recycling.
