Growing bulbs

They can be the ‘easiest of all plants’ — if you choose well and treat them right

W

By Margaret Roach

New York Times

hen she’s packing an order for a customer who has bought a lot of small bulbs, Vanessa Elms sometimes stops for a moment to jot a note on the receipt.

Put a piece of chicken wire over the planting spot, writes Elms, the owner of Old House Gardens Heirloom Bulbs, and weight it down with some bricks. Animals like to investigate recently turned soil, she knows, and may try to dig up freshly planted bulbs.

The possibility of a handwritten message from the owner isn’t the only thing that distinguishes Old House Gardens from the mass-market bulb companies whose catalogs show up in your mailbox (even if you’ve never ordered from them). Since 1993, when it was founded in Ann Arbor, Michigan, by Scott Kunst, who recently retired, it has been the only American resource devoted almost exclusively to heirloom bulbs, many available nowhere else — historic varieties handed down for their enduring value and interest.

Another distinction: Almost all of the bulbs sold through most catalogs are grown in the Netherlands, said Elms, who bought Old House Gardens in 2019. So are many that she offers, but whenever possible, Old House Gardens buys from American farmers.

Virtually all of the company’s irises, peonies and daylilies — as well as half of the dahlias

and gladiolas — come from 14 small domestic growers in 10 states. So do a third or more of the daffodils and miscellaneous bulbs.

The growers that Old House Gardens buys from share the commitment to keeping historic varieties alive, an effort that is passed along with each order into the hands of gardeners, who become part of that preservation chain.

Customers don’t come to Elms if they want to make a big splash with 250 of the latest red tulip hybrid or to buy 500 mixed daffodils for naturalizing. This is a place to find vintage treasures like the six-inch-high pixie tulip circa 1595, called Duc van Tol Red and Yellow, or Crocus angustifolius, dating to 1587, a small early bloomer and strong multiplier.

“Or people call seeking flowers from their childhood,” Elms said, noting that one popular request is the grape-scented Iris pallida Dalmatica (although it is technically not a bulb, but a rhizome). “It’s the flowers, yes, but also the memories, legacy and history that make these plants so appealing.”

Outsmarting animals (some of the time) Most flower bulbs have no major insect or disease issues.

Animal pests, however, are another story.

The best defense may be to choose animal-resistant bulbs, although that may not stop the digging, especially of new plantings.

It’s not just the small bulbs, either. Bulbs of various sizes and species can become candy or playthings for a range of animals, from voles to deer, speaking of two that often eat the underground structures or their flowers.

Other animals aren’t after lunch so much as mayhem.

The scent of that freshly turned earth is just too inviting. The result: Maybe 10 (or fewer) of the 50 bulbs you planted will rise in the spring.

“Bulbs are most vulnerable at the moment you plant them,” Elms said, “before they are rooted in and have pulled themselves down into the ground a bit over their first four to six months. The chicken wire and bricks provide a little insurance.”

A window screen, hardware cloth or even a burlap bag can be used instead of

Keeping historic varieties in stock can be a challenge for Old House Gardens, and several favorite hyacinths were unavailable this year. The soft yellow City of Haarlem, from 1893, was among those in good supply, a cheerful candidate for the garden or indoor forcing. (VANESSA ELMS VIA THE NEW YORK TIMES)

the wire; secure it in place at planting time this fall. Once the bulbs sprout, you can remove it. (The covering, unfortunately, provides protection only from aboveground

marauders, not from voles.

Moles, on the other hand, are insectivores, not herbivores, so they won’t eat the bulbs, but they may disturb them

Garlic chives: Tasty, sometimes weedy

S IT A WEED OR IS IT A garden plant? Garlic chives is among those plants — paulownia tree, Jerusalem artichoke, mint, and anise hyssop are others — that has paraded under either guise.

Garlic chives comes from a good enough family, the onion family. There is one definitely weedy member to this family, wild garlic, but so many of its other kin are valuable garden plants.

Star-of-Persia, giant onion, and lily leek are among those that light up flower gardens with starbursts of blossoms.

And the wide, purple mottled leaves of Turkestan onion add as much to a flower garden as do the flowers themselves, clustered together like fuzzy tennis balls above the leaves.

Onions of many kinds — leeks, shallots, garlic and chives — all provide delectable fare in the kitchen. Garlic and chives, of course, pretty much describes the kitchen use of garlic chives. In China, garlic chives leaves that are blanched from sunlight for a couple of weeks before harvest beneath an overturned flowerpot are a delicacy over fried noodles. They’re also tasty fermented by themselves or fermented along with bok choy and other vegetables in kim chi.

Besides good enough flavor, there’s no question as to garlic chives’ beauty.

The thin leaves rise from the ground in clumps just like those of chives, except that garlic chives’ leaves are flattened and folded rather than round and hollow. And rather than being topped by fuzzy, pink heads like chives, garlic chives’ flower stalks are capped by small, star-shaped, white flowers clustered together to create a larger star. The flowering stalks are also decorative dried.

Those flowers are followed by seeds, and with those seeds an ominous cloud

begins to pass over this plant.

Garlic chives unabashedly spreads its seeds everywhere.

No problem, you may remark: cilantro and dill also are prolific self-seeders. Yes, they are. I continue to grow these two herbs, merely yanking out of the ground excess or errant seedlings of each. A quick tug removes any prob-

lem plant, roots and all.

Give garlic chives a similar yank, though, and the strappy leaves either slip through your fingers or else snap off. The thick roots — which also spread, but nothing like garlic chives seedlings — remain in the ground to merely resprout.

I planted garlic chives a

number of years ago, but became uneasy when it started to spread around the garden willy nilly. Visions of my garden given over to this plant prompted me to weed out every last trace of it.

The plant just as promptly showed up one hundred feet from the original planting.

At this site, though, against a rock wall and beneath some dense shrubs, spread of garlic chives is kept in check. A sweep of garlic chives would anyway look pretty there.

If you are bold enough to grow garlic chives, promise to rigorously cut back spent flowers before they mature seeds if you want to contain growth. Beyond that, garlic chives is an easy and pretty

plant to grow for the flower garden, the vegetable garden, or the herb garden. Like other members of the onion family, garlic chives thrives best in full sun and moderately rich soil.

One way to start a planting of garlic chives is to beg a division from a friend or neighbor’s clump. Dig up a section, replant it, and keep it moist until established.

Seed is another way to begin a planting. As you might guess, the seeds sprout readily — in about a week.

Tobacco jar made to look like man’s best friend

M

ANY FIGURAL TObacco jars were made in the late 1800s and early 1900s, marked with just the letters “JM” or the letters and the printed word “Bohemia” or “Czechoslovakia.” The jars held loose pipe tobacco, but they were not humidors made to control humidity.

The figural jars are about 18 to 20 inches high with small statues of children seated in chairs, a dog in a barrel, a man drinking beer, even Buster Brown or gnomes. Some of the jars are also marked with a city, the location of one of the many factories like Aussig, Bohemia. Most of the jars were made of terra cotta or majolica.

A telltale signed JM jar has buff colored edges showing the ceramic. The maker was Johann Maresch (1821-1914).

He worked at many different factories and probably owned some of them. Other potters also used an initial mark. The jars by Johann Maresch sell for $300 to $500. The other potters’ work sells for less than $200.

Q. I bought a silver pin

with a large pink stone in the center at an estate sale. It’s marked “Sterling, L.S.P.” Can you tell me who made it and how old it is?

A.

L.S. Peterson Co. used “L.S.P.” or “L.S.P. Co.” as a mark. The company was founded in Attleboro in about 1943. Later, it moved to Seekonk. It made sterling silver and silverplate jewelry and novelties. The company went out of business in 1994.

Q. My daughter’s name is

Kelly, and when she was a toddler, I started buying a small doll named Kelly that was Barbie’s “little sister.”

They were sold for about $5 each, if I remember correctly. I bought a dozen of them over the years, putting them immediately into a box for safekeeping.

while grub-hunting.)

Snacking after the bulbs have sprouted is another matter. In a garden where herbivorous animals — including deer, rabbits, squirrels, gophers, chipmunks, mice and voles — are active, Elms said, “There is definitely the do-not-plant list, like tulips and lilies, and also the nobody-ever-touches-these list, headed by daffodils.”

Snowflakes (Leucojum), like Narcissus, usually go untouched. The “rarely eaten” list includes hyacinths, she said, and winter aconites (Eranthis hyemalis), snowdrops (Galanthus), alliums and glory-ofthe-snow (Chionodoxa). Add to those possibilities Spanish bluebells (Hyacinthoides hispanica), grape hyacinths (Muscari), Siberian squill (Scilla siberica), autumn crocus (Colchicum), Camassia, Fritillaria, foxtail lily (Eremurus), trout lily (Erythronium), Ornithogalum, spring-planted iris and Crinum.

Crocus tend to be animal targets, but gardeners may have better luck with the tommies, or Crocus tommasinianus.

Some gardeners try to further dissuade nibbling by sprinkling blood meal around emerging bulbs or spraying the shoots with a nontoxic repellent like Repels-All, a blend of dried blood, egg solids and garlic oil.

Some experimentation may be required to find a bulb palette that can withstand your garden’s animal pressure, Elms said.

Bulbs and annuals don’t mix Elms, a Michigan State University horticulture graduate, worked in residential landscaping before running Old House Gardens. While she is still sometimes surprised that she owns a bulb company, she finds bulbs — geophytes, with all of their resources stashed on board — endlessly fascinating.

She recalls the first time she saw a daffodil bulb cut in half: “There was like an embryonic flower tucked inside.”

Customers often ask her if they should fertilize bulbs. “A

Winter aconites (Eranthis hyemalis) are among the first bulbs to bloom, often as the snow melts in early March, even in a northern garden. Like snowdrops (Galanthus), they may take time to colonize, but will eventually seed in happily.

(VANESSA ELMS VIA THE NEW YORK TIMES)

“People call seeking flowers from their childhood... it’s the flowers, yes, but also the memories, legacy and history that make these plants so appealing.”

she said. And tulips can be extra-finicky.

“Scott Kunst liked to say to plant your tulips at the root edge of a shrub,” Elms said, “and the roots will pull moisture away from them. Or look for a sloped area in your yard to plant them, and let gravity do the work.”

Chasing elusive history Old House Gardens specializes in bulbs with history. But Vanessa Elms, owner, what counts as historic when it Old House Gardens comes to bulbs? That depends Heirloom Bulbs on which genus you’re talking about. little won’t hurt, but it is not reThe Madonna lily (Lilium quired for them to bloom,” she candidum), with its fragrant said. “If you leave the leaves white flowers, is old by any on to fade naturally after they standard.

would like.

Another obstacle: “The counterfeit thing also comes up in the bulb world — where we ordered this and got that.

We cannot accept look-alikes.”

She added, “I’m losing a couple of varieties every season,” lamenting three choice hyacinths that were unavailable this year. The apricot-colored Gypsy Queen from 1927 and the soft yellow City of Haarlem from 1893, however, were among those in good supply, cheerful candidates for the garden or indoor forcing.

“Looking at what older hyacinths are available, we’re pushed into the early 1980s, and is that old enough for us?”

Elms said. “Maybe with hyacinths, but not with daffodils.”

She is fortunate, she said, that her grower has a depth of old varieties of Narcissus. But even with a reliable supplier, the weather can intervene. “I get a third of our dahlias from one grower who had 10 inches of rain in a week this summer,” she said.

Worth the wait There is more that Elms would like to tell customers on those packing slip notes.

For instance: How your bulb season can stretch from the tiny yellow winter aconites, as the snow melts in March, to the tall, pink-flowered surprise lilies or naked ladies of August (Lycoris squamigera). Or how, even if you crave only yellow or white daffodils, you can satisfy your narrow wish over about four weeks by selecting extra-early, early, midseason and late varieties (this chart helps).

And this: Some bulbs — including those Lycoris — will make you wait for a peak performance. Unlike tulips and daffodils, which are virtually guaranteed to perform the first season they’re in the ground, snowdrops and winter aconites take time to colonize and seed in happily.

Surprise lilies won’t settle in thoroughly until a year and a half after planting, Elms said.

But be patient. They will last a lifetime, and then some after that, as all the best historic bulbs do.

After making a big jump the previous week, the 30year fixed mortgage rate — the most popular home loan product — paused as investors waited to see what the Federal Reserve had to say when the minutes from its July meeting were released.

According to the latest data released Thursday by Freddie Mac, the 30-year fixed-rate average dipped to 2.86% 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 2.87% the previous week and 2.99% a year ago. The 30-year fixed average has remained below 3% the past two months.

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. Freddie Mac conducts the survey early in the week, which means it was completed before the Fed news.

The survey is based on home purchase mortgages.

Rates for refinances may be different. As of Aug. 1, borrowers refinancing their mortgages will no longer have to pay the adverse market refinance fee. The fee, which was imposed on mortgages sold to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, added about $1,500 to a $300,000 loan. The surcharge was intended to offset COVID-related losses.
