MAY GARDENING
T
he days are finally starting to warm up, it is easy to forget that the nights can still be quite cold producing sudden sharp frosts which can destroy delicate young foliage and flowers. Now is also the time to stop feeding birds with nuts (too many carbohydrates) and they have a much better chance with a balanced diet of insects and seeds. Preparation Clear away spring bedding and prepare the ground for summer bedding i.e. weed, rake, and add organic matter to the soil There is still time to top dress your borders with a good 3” layer of compost, but make sure it is well rotted. Compost is much easier to apply before most of the plants start poking their heads through. Propagation The best time to take cuttings for me is in late spring when there is plenty of new growth to choose from, which has a better chance of rooting than older stems. Another advantage of taking them in spring rather than in autumn is you may have the enjoyment of looking after them during the warm days of summer. If you have cuttings or seedlings already on the go keep them moist and on sunny days keep the vents open and make sure they don’t dry out. Once seedlings and cuttings are big
enough pot up into a bigger sized pot. Pruning Restrain from cutting back the remaining foliage on daffs and tulips wait till there brown and dead looking Deadhead any spent blooms on early roses, irises and other early flowers, whenever the seeds are not required Prune shrubs that have any of the three D’s: Dead, damaged or diseased stems or branches. Also prune off any wayward shoots. Planting Lift and divide primroses and polyanthus, once they have finished flowering. Replant into enriched soil. If you have not already bought your summer bedding now is the time with the frosts all but gone. With the soil starting to warm up, but still moist from the winter rains, it is a good time to plant shrubs and trees without the need for excessive watering regimes. Make up your hanging baskets but bring in to a conservatory or greenhouse if warning of frost.

Some seeds can be sown directly into the ground now such as sweet pea, cosmos, nightscent, iberis, and larkspur. However rake the ground surface into a fine tilth first and water in gently. Plant out pond plants in aquatic compost which is low in nutrients, and before submerging cover with a heavy layer of gravel. This prevents the soil from floating away and stops fish disturbing the roots. Waterlillies and other clump forming aquatic plants can be divided now. It is a good time to sow spring flowering biennial plants such as wallfowers, bellis perennis, forget me nots, sweet williams, and winter flowering pansies.

TITANIC PRICES IN DEVIZES AUCTION AS THE WORLD’S MEDIA COVER ANOTHER SUCCESFUL SALE
H
enry Aldridge and Son’s latest auction of Titanic and Liner Memorobilia on April 18th attracted the attention of media outlets all over the world ranging from The Times, Daily Mail and Daily Telegraph to Time Magazine and The Australian. The week proceeding the auction saw the volume of press coverage that Henry Aldridge and Son are synominous for, with coverage on BBC One National News, News 24 and Channel 5 amoung the numerous appearances ensuring the auction was promoted to the largest possible auction. The results spoke for themselves with the star of the show, the Nantucket Titanic Deck Chair one of only a handful of fully provenanced and documented examples in existence selling for £100000. Craig Sopin, one of the worlds leading Titanic memorobilia commented when asked about the deckchair “It isn’t often that one has the opportunity to acquire such an important part of Titanic’s story. For such a significant item to have such a meticulous chain of custody is nothing short of astonishing, its history can be traced from the auction house back to the deck of Titanic itself”. This example was owned originally by Julien Lemarteleur, a French cable ship captain working in Halifax at the time of the disaster, who stated to his friend, Captain N. Robin Lee to whom he later gave the chair that it had come from the deck of Titanic. Captain Lemarteleur had been in command of the cable ship Contre Amiral Caubet, one of at least two cable repair vessels of the French company Compagnie Francaise Des Cables Telegraphiques (CFCT), operating in Halifax. Company documents showed that as late as April 3, 1912, merely 11 days before the Titanic struck the iceberg, Captain Lemarteleur was onboard
the Mackay-Bennett completing some of the Amiral Caubet’s cable repair work for a break on the Brest, France to St. Pierre, Newfoundland cable. The probiliity was that this Titanic deck chair was given to Lemarteleur by a crew member of the Mackay-Bennett, along with the piece of cork from a Titanic lifejacket. The crew of the Minia, another of the body recovery ships similarly gave a Titanic deck chair they rescued to Rev. Henry Cunningham in appreciation for his work onboard their vessel. The indepth provenance documentation confirmed the chain of custody of the deck chair through from Captain Lemarteleur in 1912 through to the present day. Due to its fragile condition the chair was professionally but sympathetically conserved several years ago. A number of telephone bidders from all over the world battled against each other and a British collector purchased it for £100000 making the chair the fourth most expensive piece of Titanic memorobilia ever sold. One of the other stars of the show was an archive of 52 celloloid negatives of Robert Falcon Scott’s illfated Terra Nova Antarctic Expedition. Scott headed The British Antarctic “Terra Nova” Expedition, on 16 January 1912, as Scott’s party neared the Pole, Herbert Bowers, who took the photographs being sold who first spotted a black flag left at a camp made by Roald Amundsen’s polar party over a month previously. This Extremely important archive of 52 negatives was taken by Lt. Henry “Birdie Bowers”, he was born in Grennock, Scotland in 1883 and served in the Royal Indian Marine Service. Both Captain Scott and Lt. Bowers were taught to use a camera by Herbert Ponting, the Terra Nova expedition photographer and the man responsible for capturing some of the most heroic
images of the age of the Antarctic exploration. The negatives offered an incredible snapshot into one of the most famous British Antarctic expeditions of the 20th century. They sold to a bidder from London in the saleroom for £36000 against interest from a collector of Titanic memorobilia based in the UK and several collectors from the United States and Europe. Henry Aldridge and Sons next free valution days are Thursday May 7th and 21st with their next auction of Antiques and Collectables on Saturday 16th May.

Hopefully we will be blessed with some sun this summer. At which point the evening air will be rich with the smell of burning charcoal, (and quite possibly food!) as the barbecues are fired up! As no BBQ is complete without burgers, we have included this delicious recipe. If you enjoy this, I would recommend buying a burger press. They are very cheap but shape great burgers and use greaseproof paper burger discs to separate the burgers - ideal for est in a v n I freezing the extra ones. reat for
