Tree-of-heaven will just keep on growing
S IT THUMBS UP OR thumbs down for treeof-heaven (Ailanthus altissima), now in focus among the general greenery for the mops of yellowish or orangish seeds prominently capping its stout branches? With compound leaves and coarse, chubby branches, this tree could have been mistaken for staghorn sumac or black walnut earlier in the season. The peanut-y aroma of crushed tree-of-heaven leaves or stems easily distinguishes this tree from the others any time of year. Those seedheads are one thing that gets this tree into trouble. The tree is extremely fecund, each one potentially casting over 300,000 seeds to the wind. And I do mean “casting to the wind,” because wings on each seed ensure that it doesn’t drop to the ground before first riding whatever breeze is available. But there’s more that has made tree-of-heaven snubbed as a weed. Cut the plant down and it won’t go away; new sprouts enthusiastically pop up from the cut stump, even after years of recutting.
Cut the plant down and it won’t go away; new sprouts enthusiastically pop up from the cut stump, even after years of recutting. What’s more, the spreading roots also send up sprouts that eventually can grow into full-sized trees at some distance from the mother plants. “Full-sized” for tree-of-heaven means forty to sixty feet, or more. growth in decline. That’s still not all: tree-ofheaven also is among the fastest growing of trees. At three to five feet per year, it can quickly outstrip competitors, whether they are cultivated plants or weeds. Like any good weed/cultivated plant, tree-of-heaven also tolerates adversity.

Gardening CONTINUES FROM PAGE F2
Savarino was inspired by Ruth Stout (1884-1980), a Connecticut gardener who popularized no-till gardening in several books. She used hay as her mulch, but it can come with weed seeds. Straw is cheaper and more available, and it takes a little longer to break down. Savarino said she contacted the grower of the straw she uses, and he assured her that he had not used pesticides on the wheat it came from. If you want your veggie garden to resemble the groomed potager of a French chateau, no-till probably isn’t for you. This is because beds are not cleared, turned and planted with discrete crops. Rather, new seed is sown or transplants are inserted as plants are harvested, so the effect is much more integrated – or chaotic, depending on your viewpoint. “It’s a jumble,” Hopkins said. Navigating path and bed “is like a game of Twister,” Savarino said. The couple said that, since they have switched to no-till, they have grown more food with fewer insect pests, and have had less need to water and less weed pressure. Overall, the no-till approach means thinking anew about how to garden. This is not necessarily easy for a seasoned, orthodox gardener, but the reward is a system that, once established, requires less work. After heavy rains, for example, my soil crusts, and I have to break it up with a cultivator or knife while avoiding seedlings. In permaculture, though, the thick layer of mulch negates this need. Sylvia has picked up on this distinction. “For me, it’s been less about the work aspect and more about how different it is from the gardens around us,” she said. The family said the amount of its kitchen scraps going into the garbage is now a third of what it once was. About a mile to the north, in the Newark Street Community Garden, I met Marguerite Pridgen at her no-till plot. Looking at her garden sage amid summer veggies, it be-

came clear that, in this system, you can grow perennials cheek by jowl with annuals in a way you can’t in a garden where the beds are continually disturbed. “I have more and more herbs that are perennial,” she said. This palette of perennials might also extend to strawberries, horseradish, lovage and asparagus. “For the first two years, I struggled with getting it where I wanted,” she said. But now, 10 years on, “the soil is so fluffy, I really don’t have to add anything to it.” New gardeners arrive and become overwhelmed by the relentlessness of weeds, she said, especially after a summer vacation or longer hiatus. “It’s one of the main reasons for the turnover” of gardeners, she said. Pridgen uses cover crops to block weeds and feed the soil; daikon radishes work to open up the soil without digging, and legumes, such as vetch and clover, to add nitrogen to the soil. “I have had a lot of good harvests over the years,” she said. At Lederer Gardens, a communal farm and community garden in Northeast Washington, the gardeners have initiated a no-till system this year. Rows 100 feet long and more than three feet wide rise amid earthen aisles, and the beds are now full of tomatoes, winter squash, corn, okra and bush beans. To create the garden, the old beds were cultivated down 12

The tool is pressed into the ground with your foot, then rocked back and forth, opening the soil without disturbing the surface. The beds were then raised another 12 inches with a mix of topsoil and compost. Before the new system was put in place, the garden had a problem with chronic flooding, which ruined crops. New drains have helped fix that, but so, too, has the switch to a no-till system, said Josh Singer, community garden specialist with D.C.’s Department of Parks and Recreation. “Getting away from tilling has done so much to absorb the water,” he said.

others in the race skyward. (Tree-of-heaven is not alone with this ploy; other plants — including black walnut, sunflower, and rye — also produce natural compounds that inhibit growth of, or kill, other plants.) Advantages of this natural herbicide, if it could be used in gardening, are rapid biodegradation, low toxicity to nontarget organisms, and production without factories or petrochemicals. I’ll admit a soft spot for tree-of-heaven because of a serene, stately, towering grove of them that I experienced a quarter of a century ago in rural Virginia. Despite my experience and the tree’s other qualities, I’m not going so far as to suggest actually planting tree-of-heaven. It achieves elegance only when a few trees are planted and they are given plenty of space and plenty of time to grow. And even then, I might worry about the hundreds of thousands of seeds each would spread every year. Any gardening questions? Email them to me at garden@ leereich.com and I’ll try answering them directly or in this column. For online and live workshops, see leereich.com/ workshops.

18th-century artist depicts saints in wooden figures
RA ANDREAS GARcia was an 18th-century Mexican Franciscan friar and folk artist who worked in what is now New Mexico. He carved and painted wooden figures of saints, called bulto, that were about 12 to 18 inches high. The figures were used as devotional images as well as artistic objects. A polychromed wood bulto made by Fra Garcia between 1748 and 1778 representing San (Saint) Rafael the Archangel sold at a Cottone auction for $9,600. An archangel is a messenger of God, higher ranking than an angel. San Rafael is a patron saint of travelers, often depicted holding a staff; the blind; and physicians, from an Old Testament story in which he healed a blind man with fish’s gall.
Q. I love Coca-Cola ad-

A.
Coca-Cola was first served in 1886 in Atlanta, Georgia. John Pemberton, an Atlanta pharmacist, invented Coca-Cola when he combined a mysterious, dark liquid with carbonated water. Coca-Cola advertising pieces have been hot for years, popular with both collectors and businesses with vintage decor. Coke started making serving trays in 1897. Vintage Coca-Cola trays have black backs, while reproductions may have yellow, white or other colored backs. Telltale signs of a reproduction include barcodes and any evidence that the back has been painted black.

CURRENT PRICES Current prices are recorded from antiques shows, flea markets, sales and auctions throughout the United States. Prices vary in different locations because of local economic conditions.
A.
James W. Tufts, the owner of three pharmacies, made equipment for soda fountains, including silver-plated parts. By 1875, he was also making silver-plated tableware. He held several patents, including one for “Ornamental Designs on Britannia and other Soft Metals” granted in 1885. Designs were made by pressing the soft metal into a hand-carved mold or die to produce a design that imitated more expensive engraving. Tufts died in 1902, and the company was out of business before 1915. The pattern number indicates you have a fruit basket. These were sometimes called “bride’s baskets,” because they were often given as wedding presents. Most had glass liners to protect the silver from the acid in fruit. Some silver plate bride’s baskets sell for about $25.

Ronson lighters were first made in 1913 by Art Metal Works of Newark, New Jersey, a company founded by Louis V. Aronson in 1886. The company originally made gold-plated metal.

“Ronson,” derived from Aronson’s last name, was used on lighters beginning in the 1920s. The company also made lighter fluid called “Ronsonol.” The company name became Ronson Art Metal Works in 1945 and was changed to Ronson Corporation in 1954. Varaflame Windlite lighters were introduced in 1959 and were advertised as windproof. Zippo Manufacturing Company bought Ronson in 2010 and continues to make Ronson brand lighters, fuel and accessories. Ronson Varaflame Windlite Slim Line lighters sell for $10 to $15.

Mortgage rates showed little change this week, waiting for the outcome of the Federal Reserve meeting. According to the latest data released Thursday by Freddie Mac, the 30-year fixed-rate average ticked up to 2.8% with an average 0.7 point. (Points are fees paid to a lender equal to 1% of the loan amount. They are in addition to the interest rate.) It was 2.78% a week ago and 2.99% a year ago. The 30-year fixed average has remained below 3% the past five weeks. Freddie Mac, the federally chartered mortgage investor, aggregates rates from around 80 lenders across the country to come up with weekly national averages. It uses rates for high-quality borrowers with strong credit scores and large down payments. Because of the criteria, these rates are not available to every borrower. The 15-year fixed-rate average slipped to 2.1% with an average 0.7 point. It was 2.12% a week ago and 2.51% a year ago. The five-year adjustable rate average fell to 2.45% with an average 0.3 point. It was 2.49% a week ago and 2.94% a year ago. “Mortgage rates often stand still in the week leading up to Federal Reserve monetary policy meetings, waiting to hear what the Fed has to say,” said Holden Lewis, home and mortgage specialist at NerdWallet. “In addition, two forces canceled each other out: high inflation and the spread of covid’s delta variant. The former pushes upward on mortgage rates, while the latter pulls them downward.”

Cedar chest isn’t just for brides

But cedar chests aren’t just for brides anymore. This do-it-yourself version features solid construction and handsome styling that make it a natural for almost any room of the house. And although cedar chests can be pretty expensive to buy, almost any woodworker can build this heirloom-quality chest for a fraction of the cost.
