POLICE LOGS By Colette Bauer My favorite colors are yellow and blue, or de- pending on the day and my mood, blue and yel- low. Therefore, I decided that the summer plantings in the flower bed near the front door would be in yel- lows and blues, or perhaps blues and yellows. I went to work. I planted blue mound fescue, yellow dwarf bar- berry, lavender, pansies, agapanthus, allium, soci- ety garlic, and black-eyed Susans. I stood back to ad- mire the results but there was nothing to admire. The whole bed just fell flat. I couldn't figure out why I had failed. It was time to call in the big guns – so I called my friend Cathy. She took one glance at my attempt at garden design and came up with the solution, add some color. I did, and the re- sults were amazing. I added some marigolds here and there and the orange added enough pop to change the look entirely. Since that time four years ago, I have added colorful annuals to that bed every year. Sometimes I add marigolds and sometimes I add petunias in reds or pur- ples mainly, depending on what's available. All this is to get to the subject of this article – which is color in your gar- den. Not just any color but the color added by annuals. And not just any annuals but the work horses of the annuals – marigolds and pe- tunias which are often ig- nored because they are so "common," but they can be a great addition to almost any sunny garden bed. Among their attributes are the facts that they can handle the 100 plus degrees of the summer temperatures on the valley floor and that they are well mannered (noninvasive). On the negative side – they both need to be deadheaded in or- der to keep up appearances. MARIGOLDS (Tagete) – The marigold is native to Mexico and Central Amer- ica which probably explains why it does well in this area (zones 8 and 9). The mari- gold has a strong pungent smell which may be why they are helpful in pest con- trol and are good compan- ion plants to roses and veg- etables. They come in a va- riety of colors ranging from cream, to orange, to rust and some are even varie- gated and can be anywhere from six inches to six feet tall. In this area marigolds are used mainly as bedding or boarder plants. PETUNIAS (Solanaceae) – Petunias are a colorful ad- dition to your garden and are often used as ground cover or as trailing plants in pots. You can pretty much choose your color since they come in white, yellow, red, pink, lav- ender, purple and recently, I even bought a coral one. Al- though we usually use pe- tunias as annuals, they can over winter. I have one that is four years old. Speaking of color, come to the Garden Club's annual plant sale which takes place 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 16 and 17 at the Union Hall, 12889 Baker Road. There, you will be able to pick up some color as well as greenery for you garden. I hope to see you there.
