November 2021
Along The Path November is here. We know that by the calendar, not by the weather necessarily. Well, we did it….another Bulb & Plant Mart is in the books. This was such a special time, to all be together again, in our familiar space, doing what we do best! Jan Bres and Fiona Guinn deserve all the praise that can be heaped on them; chairing BPM is not a job for sissies, that is for sure. Bulb Mart isn’t Bulb Mart without pimento cheese and deviled eggs ~ thanks Laurie Allen and Elizabeth Copeland for the bounty in the hospitality room. Thank you, also, to everyone who volunteered your time to make this a success. Not just those of us working our required (and then some) hours but also our Af liate Members who come out to volunteer, year after year. The value of your institutional knowledge, experience, and skill cannot be overstated; you are very much appreciated. Speaking of institutional knowledge, thanks to Nancy Davis Keely, Graeme Hicks, Carol Price, and Judy Lee for their repeat performances on the front end of Bulb Mart – managing our inventory and getting it where it needs to go. Thanks mom…Gay Estes created all these cute little illustrations, one for each of our venues, that are popping up in The Garden Path this year. Our November General Meeting will be our rst one of the GCH year with a speaker. Please plan on attending and if you would like for Nola to sign a copy of her book, please bring one with you to that meeting. Her bio and venue details are in this issue of The Garden Path. We’ve got a full GCH calendar for November with something for everyone, I hope. Maybe you will try something that you usually wouldn’t. The very worst that will happen is that you get to spend time with fellow GCH’ers. And of course, this month is also Thanksgiving. I hope that you and your families and friends enjoy seeing one another and can take some time to remember the many blessings that we all enjoy. I count my GCH family as one of mine. See y’all at HMNS on the 10th, and yes(!) we will have food and drinks set up for the November meeting.

You’ll really “dig” helping out at Dig it Day! Please join us in the garden at a “Dig it Day” to support our Urban Harvest – Gregory Lincoln Education Center project. You won’t regret it! Come out on Saturday, November 13 from 9:00 to 11:30 a.m. You can stay for just an hour, or the morning. This is such a fun and rewarding way to work in a garden. Pulling somebody else’s weeds while you chat with friends, discovering a new type of vegetable, admiring a butter y, learning a new gardening tip, volunteering with your kids or grandkids… these are all things you can do while volunteering at Gregory Lincoln. In case you have forgotten, Gregory Lincoln Education Center is a K-8 HISD Magnet School for the arts, including culinary arts. It is located on Taft Street near downtown. Urban Harvest supports the school’s garden, which grows all kinds of vegetables, herbs and fruits. The school has an academic program that teaches all the elementary school students about gardening, and then in the classroom they teach how to cook their harvest. It is an inspiring program that would bene t all children, but it is particularly meaningful at Gregory Lincoln since many of the students’ families have very limited resources and may otherwise not have any exposure to gardening. Bring your hat, a water bottle and your favorite pair of gloves. All tools will be provided. 1101 Taft St., Houston, TX 77019 Sign up is on the GCH website, contact Kathryn Bragan (klbragan@comcast.net) or Caroline Dannenbaum (carolinedannenbaum@gmail.com) with any questions.

THE SUNFLOWERS - PROVISIONAL UPDATE The Sun owers have been hard at work! At the end of September, they attended the GCH time honored tradition of a Horticulture Propagation Workshop. Head of gardens and landscape operations for all Museum of Fine Arts Houston campuses, Bart Brechter led this hands on workshop at Rienzi. The Sun owers along with other Members of GCH, learned all about propagating with cuttings from the Rienzi gardens and were able to take several cuttings home to watch grow them grow and eventually replant. Of course, Bulb and Plant Mart is a busy time for everyone, The Sun owers included. The Provisionals dug Crinums, helped unload trucks of plants, set up of tables, chairs and tents, counted and sacked bulbs, etc. They worked tirelessly during the week with a smile and determination to help make the B&PM a big success. Well done, ladies!!

What to do in your garden in November (with all your BPM purchases!) compiled by Nancy Keely and Laura Levenson
* Continue planting trees, shrubs, rose bushes and perennials. Planting now will ensure better survival next year. * Cut back perennials and clean out dead foliage from beds. * Plant crocus, anemones, daffodils, freesia, hyacinths, ranunculus, alliums, and lycoris. Plant paperwhites in pots by Nov. 11th for blooming at Christmas. Amaryllis are 6-8 weeks for blooms; so plant accordingly for Christmas. Keep Amaryllis in a dark cool place before planting. Refrigerate tulips 6-8 weeks before planting, then start planting New Year’s Day and then every two weeks through Valentine’s Day for longer bloom time. * Plant wild ower seeds now and throughout November – bluebonnets, paintbrush, larkspur, etc. * Mulch your beds before the weather gets cold. Protect roots and maintain moisture while keeping weeds to a minimum with a 3” layer. Try pine straw, bark mulch, compost or leaves. * Move potted tropical plants to a protected area. AND buy frost cloth now before it runs out like 2021 Snowmageddon. * Keep saving your seeds! It is always fun to share seeds from our gardens with other garden club members around the Zone.

Hooked by the Stitching Sisterhood Our Season begins with GCH members and guests gathering at Rienzi to decorate for The Holidays. Our showpieces include three Christmas Trees that stand in all their glory for visitors to enjoy throughout the season – and even on Boxing Day! Together, we adorn these beauties with our ever-growing needlepoint ornament collection, as well as a stunning collection of Faberge’ style ornaments lovingly given in honor of the garden club’s rst Rienzi Decorations Chair, Betty Davis. The Needlepoint Ornament Collection for Rienzi is one of GCH’s ongoing projects. Since 2001, GCH members have been invited to share their talents to create the beautiful ornaments, many of which are garden-themed and stitched to honor and remember beloved Club members. As in many ornament collections, our treasures vary in size, color, theme, and type. You’ll nd a stitched ornament in the shape of a butter y next to an ornament double that size and shaped like angel boasting intricate stitches, beading and ribbon. Be sure not to miss the needlepoint tree skirt and two needlepoint angels atop our trees. Imagine! GCH members take an open grid mesh canvas and create three-dimensional art that astounds those of us who question if we could create one such amazing needlework gift in honor of a garden club bestie or sponsor. I rst helped decorate Rienzi as a guest of who would become my future GCH sponsor. I was immediately drawn to the close-knit group who shared a common bond – and I wanted to be a part of it. Placing the ornaments on the trees was an honor; it felt sacred. As I quietly placed these marvels (perched on a ladder), I was serenaded by the overlapping stories of who had madewhich ornaments for whom and which ornaments had former rst lady Barbara Bush stitched...that’s where I learned she had been an esteemed member of “our Club.” Speaking solely for this GCH member, I had been intimidated by the ower arranging and horticulturally inclined members, but the Rienzi experience felt like a sisterhood I wanted to join. I delighted in the oohs and ahhs and hugs and fun. It was this lovefest that hooked me. Our sisterhood and creative, needleworking artists will gather to continue this wonderful GCH tradition.

Stitched before 2002
These two Christmas ornaments were lovingly stitched by our members. These two ornaments have adorned the beautiful Christmas trees at Rienzi each year, since 2002. The provenance of these ornaments is unknown. We are in the process of re-creating the ornament book which has the history of each ornament in our collection. Please take a look at these orphans and e-mail Kim Thomas kjst1221@hotmail.com with any information that you have on them.
These two ornaments appear in a photo from 2002 of one the very rst Christmas Trees that Marianne Crain and Betty Davis did at Rienzi.

Museum of Fine Arts Houston South Lawn Since 1931 the Garden Club of Houston has maintained the South Lawn as one of the many projects that have bene ted from the Garden Club of Houston. We continue to support and maintain the South Lawn in our endeavors for the beauti cation of the city’s private and public landscapes. We work closely with Bart Brechter, head of the gardens and landscape operations at MFAH for almost 20 years. Bart keeps the Lawn healthy and beautiful as he tends the gardens as the museum's living collections. This past year the South Lawn nally came to completion with the planting for the perennial beds on either side of the south door. A beautiful collection of salvias in colors of purple and red - the red of pineapple sage (salvia elegans) and the purple (Salvia guaranitica). While the salvias provide the blooming color, the beautiful foliage of the Coleus give the beds a bold and bright impact that no other plant can. Along the back of the border are Calocasias and Canna which give height and texture. Away from the building the lawn and garden went through a total redesign. Now, the lawn is a raised oval lawn with sod walkways. Lush ground covers of sandy leaf g ivy (Ficus tikoua), Camellias (Camellia sasanqua) surround the lawn and Hollies (llex cornudta) provide privacy. The South Lawn is a welcoming and peaceful retreat to the busy Museum District area.

Bats and Bloodies!
CONSERVATION FIELD TRIP WAUGH DRIVE BRIDGE BAT COLONY On Tuesday, November 9th, The Garden Club of Houston members and their families are invited to gather at sunset at the Waugh Drive Bridge to see the Mexican free-tailed bats emerge into the skies as they spread out all over the Houston area. The ¼ million Waugh Bat Colony eats an estimated 2½ tons of insects nightly. Diana Foss, TPWD Urban Biologist, and members of the Houston Bat Team will be there to show and tell us about this wonderful bat colony.
Photo – Diane Humes
Although most Mexican free-tailed bats in Texas spend their winters in Mexico, the colony living under the Waugh Drive Bridge is here year-round. Residents rst began noticing bats here in 1993 after the bridge was rebuilt, making it more “bat-friendly.” Similar in construction to the world-famous Congress Avenue Bridge in Austin, crevices between concrete beams in Waugh Drive Bridge provide ideal shelter and protection for the bat colony. When the temperature at sunset is above 50F, Mexican free-tailed bats leave the bridge in spiraling columns and can travel up to 100 miles round-trip in search of insects. The bats leave around sunset and often return just before sunrise. Parking in the area can be a challenge. The nearby parking lot that has a Subway sandwich shop usually has available spaces. There are numerous other stores there; most would be closing close to when we would be parking. If you park in front of one of them, consider purchasing something. The bat colony viewing deck is directly diagonal to the shopping center with the Subway sandwich shop. (Other parking options are The Lost Lake Visitors Center (where The Dunlavy was), street parking along Allen Parkway, or Whole Foods—a little farther down on Waugh Drive, still within walking distance). Arrive around 5:00pm. If you would like to sit on the grassy slope, bring a small blanket. Bloody Marys will be set up on a table below the viewing deck!

Houston Hospice Garden - Project Update A certain calm and wholeness falls over visitors as they encounter gardens at Houston Hospice. Perhaps it’s simply the contrast from the bustle and sterility of the Medical Center but more likely it’s the trees and the lifetimes coming together in roots and branches. Whatever it is, the past GCH chairs of the gardens at Houston Hospice have done an amazing job at making this healing space accessible to all the guests and patients most in need. While the historic gardens oozed the charm of decades of care, they also showed the decades of wear and of old handicapped codes. In 2019, Jenny Kempner, Isabel Lummis and Sue White, realized it was time to update the gardens and make them accessible to the patients and families of Houston Hospice and their neighbors. A comprehensive master plan was developed to make this possible. Last year, The Garden Club of America awarded this GCH Project a $10,000 Founders Fund Grant. These funds went toward installing two new handicapped accessible viewing areas in the garden, one with the ability to seamlessly accommodate a gurney. Further, grass has almost all been replaced and the trees trimmed to allow a little more light to shine through.

As with all Houston gardens, this garden was devastated by Uri in February. Fortunately the newest plantings were replaced but the established plants around the historic fountain and many of the other formal shrubs fell victim to the freeze. The loss was tremendous and GCH is working to replace as much as our budget allows. Our January work day is always a good time for GCH members to steward this lovely garden. This post-freeze year, GCH volunteers are most appreciated. Please mark your calendar to join us in the gardens on Tuesday, January 18th, at 10am. Further, Houston Hospice is looking to add a new tradition this year with a holiday gathering in the garden for those who’ve lost loved ones. If you nd yourself in the medical center and know a garden will help, please don’t hesitate to walk on in - everyone is welcome to this beautiful space — it’s open to the public.
