Apps That Keep Your Houseplants Alive

Houseplants bring earthy beauty to interiors, but they can quickly show signs of decline if they don’t get the correct amount of sun, nutrients and water. When your favorite plant turns into a droopy, brown mess, where can you turn for help?

Google Play or Apple might not be your first move, but they have excellent apps that can help you choose, care for, and grow healthy beautiful plants. You can use an app to help you save a sickly plant, talk to the app’s team of botanists, and set reminders for watering, fertilizing, pruning and other plant care, advises HappySprout.com.

Download PlantSnap.com or PictureThis the next time you visit a nursery to help you choose plants that will thrive in your home or garden. Use the app when you’re on a nature hike to help you identify edible plants and keep you from walking into that tangle of poison ivy. Read More.

Should You Move to a Zoom Town?

Remote workers are migrating from high-priced cities with few housing choices in search of real estate gold— larger, cheaper homes that offer a better lifestyle.

According to RocketMortgage.com, telecommuting is here to stay. Zoom towns outside of major cities like Centennial, Colorado (Denver metro); Frisco, Texas (Dallas metro); Bellevue, Washington (Seattle metro); Carlsbad, California (San Diego metro); and Fremont, California (San Francisco Bay Area) are close to big-city amenities but are more affordable. However, increasing demand is making zoom town homes more expensive.

If you telecommute, consider the following:

Your commute. Will your new home have a sequestered area where you can telecommute comfortably away from household noise and distractions? What would your commute be like if your employer wanted you in the office part of the week? Read More.

23 TALES OF WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA

LORE & LEGENDS

TRUE STORIES, HISTORY'S MYSTERIES AND THE ROAD TO NOWHERE

One of the best parts of our job is that we regularly get to introduce people to the area and share the stories behind our vibrant, one-of-a-kind communities. This year, we are showcasing a total of 23 Tales of Western North Carolina in our magazine. We hope you enjoy this story-telling series and that by the end of the year everyone feels like a local!

The White Squirrel

The legend of Brevard's white squirrels dates back to the 1940s, when a couple moved to the area from Florida and brought a pair of white squirrels with them. They intended to release the squirrels into the vast wild. However, the squirrels escaped before they could be strategically released. The pair of white squirrels bred with Brevard’s gray squirrel population, creating a new local population of white squirrels.

Over time, the white squirrels became a beloved symbol of Brevard, with locals considering them to be a good luck charm. Today, Brevard is home to one of the largest populations of white squirrels in the world, with an estimated 3 - 5,000 white squirrels living in and around the town.

The white squirrels of Brevard are not albinos, but rather a genetic variation of the gray squirrel. The white fur is caused by a recessive gene, and while white squirrels are rare in most parts of the world, they are relatively common in Brevard.

Today, the white squirrels are protected by local laws, and Brevard celebrates them each year with a White Squirrel Festival, featuring live music, food, and crafts. The festival draws thousands of visitors each year, eager to catch a glimpse of Brevard's famous white squirrels.

Cold Mountain

Cold Mountain, located in Western North Carolina, has a rich history and is the subject of many legends and stories. One of the most famous legends has it that during the Civil War, a Confederate soldier named Inman deserted his post and began a long and treacherous journey back home to Cold Mountain to be with his love, Ada Monroe.

The story of Inman and Ada's love and the hardships they endured during the Civil War was popularized in Charles Frazier's best-selling novel "Cold Mountain," which was later adapted into a critically acclaimed film. The movie was filmed in the Carpathian Mountains of Romania, which offered similar mountain vistas.

The legend of Inman and Ada has become a beloved part of the history and folklore of Cold Mountain, inspiring visitors to explore the rugged beauty of the region and imagine the struggles of those who lived there during one of the most tumultuous periods in American history.

Moon Eyed People

The Moon Eyed People

According to Cherokee legend, the Moon Eyed People were a mysterious group of lightskinned, blue-eyed people who lived in the mountains long before the Cherokee arrived. They were said to be nocturnal and to have built underground dwellings to avoid the sun.

The legend of the Moon Eyed People has been passed down through oral traditions. While there is little concrete evidence to support their existence, some archaeological evidence has been found that suggests the presence of a prehistoric people in the region. The legend goes that The Moon Eyed People were eventually driven out of the area by the Cherokee, but some people still claim to see them today, lurking in the shadows.

The Wampus Cat

The Wampus Cat is a legendary creature that is said to roam the Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina. According to legend, the Wampus Cat was once a Cherokee woman cursed by tribal elders for spying on their sacred ceremony. As punishment, the woman was transformed into a half-human, half-cat creature, doomed to roam the mountains forever.

The Wampus Cat is said to have the body of a human and the head of a cat, with glowing red eyes and sharp claws. It is also said to emit a

terrifying scream that can be heard for miles around. The legend of the Wampus Cat has been passed down through generations of Appalachian families, and many people in the region claim to have encountered the creature. Some say that the Wampus Cat is a shape-shifter who can take on different forms, while others believe that it is a guardian spirit who protects the mountains and their inhabitants.

Great Smoky Realty Get to know us

Meet Jan Newsome

Listing Agent for 266 Lost Mine Trail, Brevard, NC 28712

My Name: Jan Newsome

I am: Known through my customer base as the agent that truly invests time & money to market a home. I design & implement many creative Marketing Promotions for each home that I list, and the marketing continues for the life of the listing.

BHHS Great Smokys Realty is: Not your ordinary, everyday franchise company. Makes you proud to be part of an organization that stands for...STRENGTH / TRUST / INTEGRITY. BHHS is known for being financially sound and being under the umbrella of Warren Buffet's Berkshire Hathaway--it doesn't get any more impressive.

Born In: Upper Darby, PA (outside Philadelphia)

Languages Spoken: English

Proudest Moment: Training a group of R.E. sailing novice gal friends to participate in a sailboat race and coming in 2nd place in the Bikini Cup Race held on Clearwater Beach, FL. Our 42' sailboat was named "Perseverance". We won 1st place for our outstanding coordinating neon Bikini's. Maybe this should be considered one of the funniest, as our youngest 'sailorette' wearing a thong bikini had to climb to the top of the mast to fix something that broke during a critical maneuver in the race. If we're speaking strictly of real estate, I'll always remember one particular sale. I had been working with an upscale Buyer interested in waterfront property along the beaches of Clearwater & Belleair, Florida. Our office (Beachcomber R.E.) had a waterfront home that had recently been reduced. I told this Buyer that he needed to see this home. His response was that he had already seen it twice with 2 different Realtors. I replied that we have now investigated new construction & lot prices, seen properties requiring lots of renovations and this home was in immaculate condition and had one of the largest lots available in the area. We scheduled a showing. The Buyer spent maybe 20 minutes going through this home and submitted an offer shortly thereafter. At the time, in the 90's, it became the first $M sale in the community of Harbor Bluffs. PS--the listing agent (with my office) told me her Seller would never accept the offer. I insisted on being present when the Offer was submitted to the owners. The rest is history.

Biggest Challenge: Keeping up with technology.

Alarm Clock: Never use one. My subconscious springs me out of bed with a guilt trip of what has to be accomplished.

Perfect Day: In days gone by--loved a sunny day on the water in our powerboat with family & friends cruising the Intracoastal waterways off the Gulf Coast from Sand Key/CLW Beach to John's Pass in Maderia Beach & tying up at a dock for fresh seafood & a frozen Pina Colada. Now, still enjoy a blue

sky day while venturing through Sonoma County in northern CA wine regions of the Russian River, Dry Creek & Alexander Valley tasting the latest wine releases.

First Job: The owner of Household Finance came to my high school asking for a gal that was exceptional in math. The teacher gave them my name. Not only did I get a job, I got a loan for my first car. Super Hero Power: Being resourceful in problem solving and ability to overcome objections while making clients/customers feel at ease & comfortable with the purchase/selling process. Not to mention my theatrical make-up skills for our community Theatre Club.

Favorite Area Neighborhood: The small towns in western North Carolina all have their own charm--cobblestone streets, boutique Arts & Craft shops, specialty stores, talented artists, music venues, live play performances, holiday parades with street vendors, food & craft vendors, woodworkers, along with lakes, golf courses, waterfalls and the best of all -- friendly people. I live in Brevard for all of the above but frequent Hendersonville, Cashiers, Highlands, Lake Lure & Highlands often.

Inspiration: I was fortunate to have an excellent mentor when I first entered Corporate Life. Having someone not only believe in your talents and capabilities but then giving you the latitude to operate independently on your own decisions afforded me an opportunity to design Company policies, be responsible for a multi-million-dollar department budget and interface daily with Corporate executives and employees in real estate related matters. That experience paved the way for my future endeavors. Read More & Connect.
