Whether it was the highend maximalist approach of designer Mario Buatta, also known as the “Prince of Chintz,” or the cozy cot tage-style of Laura Ashley, ruffles played a starring role in the English country-in spired aesthetic of the time.

When Marcum thinks about ruffles, she draws upon the French Rococo period which roughly started in the early 1700s and lasted until the 1770s. Ruffles didn’t neces sarily adorn the curtains and shams of the time, but the era was known for using natural elements like flowers and seashells in bright, ornamen tal ways and the dresses of the time put ruffles on display.

But for people like Andrea Bernstein, the founder of Linen Salvage et Cie in Los Angeles, they are a perma nent fixture. Bernstein has long had an affinity for a soft, romantic style and creates products like the silk velvet tatter ruffle square pillow and silk velvet ruffle throws.
“I think like any trend probably, eventually, it will go away,” Bernstein said.
Ruffles have been most popular in the United States during the Gilded Age and the 1980s, Marcum said, and the common thread among these time periods is the heightened wealth gap asso ciated with both eras.

The English-country style was influenced by French Ro coco, said Marcum, and the English aesthetic has inspired much of the ruffly décor in the United States. “Some thing that I think that English countryside style does is sort of take it down to a more accessible, natural level,” Marcum said. “It makes it a lot more romantic.”

And watch for weeds that try to creep in from now until December. Gill-overthe-ground (Ground Ivy), in particular, has this habit of sneaking into the garden late in the season.

So why not begin now? The soil is in good tilth — rock-hard soils of August will be softened by autumn rains, yet the soil is not sticky and sodden, as it might be in late winter. There’s plenty of time to dig some sam pling holes (6 inches deep) for a soil test to determine if the soil is in need of fertilizer or lime.
Soil prepared now will mellow during fall and winter, through the action of the soil organisms and alternating freezing and thawing temperatures.

A heavy clay soil or a soil with an impervious layer below the surface will benefit from a thorough digging. Just turn the soil over with a spading shovel or fork, or lift it in place with a broadfork. No need to crumble the soil at this time, as would be required to prepare a seedbed in the spring. This will occur naturally over the course of the winter, and then a light raking in the spring will be all that is Whileneeded.youare at it (digging, that is), mix leaves, sawdust, compost, straw, manure or other organic material into the soil. These organic materials mitigate the tendency of clay soils to be come sticky and wa terlogged. Lime and fertilizer, as per soil test recommen dations, also are of benefit if mixed into the soil.

Q. My father, an American who was born in France, was given a series of eight prints of important events during the French Revolution. They were a gift from his great-aunt in 1938 or 1939, before he came to the United States at the outbreak of World War II. The prints were in a roll for many years, then poorly framed, and I had them reframed last year. The prints are about 14 inches high and 18 inches wide. They picture events from the French Revolu tion, including guillotine depictions of both Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. The printer’s mark is “O. Chardon, Paris.” They are flecked, some are cracked and all are a bit discolored by the years and condi tions. Can you tell me anything about the printer and age of these prints?

The survey is based on home purchase mortgages. Rates for refinances may be different. 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.The15-year fixed-rate average jumped to 4.98% with an average 0.8 points. It was 4.85% the previous week and 2.18% a year ago. The five-year adjustable rate average surged to 4.51% with an average 0.4 points. It was 4.36% the previous week and 2.43% a year Meanwhile,ago.higher rates have weakened mortgage demand, which continues to hover at its lowest level in more than two decades. The market composite index - a measure of total loan appli cation volume - decreased 3.7% from a week earlier, according to Mortgage Bankers Association data.

Heeding that wisdom (and the space restrictions of my roommate’s car), I decided to pack four medium and small plants in lightweight pots. I bought a $16 clear bin at the local dollar store, and a friend helped me drill about a dozen ventilation holes in the lid to prevent the plants from getting too hot. I nestled four of my less finicky plants — all varieties of pothos — in the bin with a bit of tape anchoring them down.

items. For the first round, I decided to take three plants: a small monstera, a polka dot begonia and a white butterfly arrowhead.Ichoseto pay the $30 fee to check my other luggage (so I wouldn’t be carrying too much)
S I PLANNED MY move from Brook lyn to Los Angeles, I found myself awake at 3 a.m. on certain nights, frantically googling, “how to move your houseplants a long distance.”“Don’tbother,” a few commenters in online forums warned. “Most long-distance moving companies won’t take even them.”
culture and Natural Resources division, said that it’s never worth the risk of harming your future home by importing pests, diseases or something invasive.Onceyou’re clear on those ends, you can consider other factors, such as how challeng ing the move would be. Any thing taller or wider than about 3 feet seemed too intimidating and expensive for me to move, so I chose to stick with smalland medium-sized plants that would do well in a warmer climate.When preparing to move your plants, Borel suggests, keep a close eye on them.
“For the last couple of months before you make the move, concentrate on making sure that your plants are healthy and well watered — not over watered — and they’re fertil ized and have no visible pests anywhere,” she said.
Here’s what I learned along the way.
But the way plants are wrapped for the car or truck also matters. A larger plant that’s traveling in a nearly empty vehicle will still need its foliage wrapped in pro tective paper, such as brown kraft paper or newspaper, and
Visiting the dollar store yet again, I bought a $5 plastic container that fit my airline’s size restrictions for personal
To prepare for the low clearance of overhead carry-on bins, I’d recommend packing plants that are shorter than 12 inches or ones that have flexi ble and strong leaves.
For my largest plant — a nearly 4-foot-tall money tree — I took clippings off the top and gave them away to friends so it would fit in my box. I cut a piece of cardboard to fit the width and depth of the box, cutting a hole in the middle so I could wedge the ceramic pot inside the box with no chance of movement. I added tape on the bottom of the pot and the edges of my cardboard wedge, filling the remaining space in the box with more brown paper.Allof the experts I spoke with recommended watering each plant several days in advance, wrapping foliage in brown kraft paper or newspaper and sending them via UPS (rather than the United States Post al Service or FedEx). But no matter which mail carrier you
“It is natural for live plants to show minor signs of stress after being shipped,” said Maureen Newman and Erin Marino in an email.“Removing damaged foliage gives the plants back energy for new, healthy growth,” they continued. “Having a little patience, as your plant bounces back and settles into its new home, helps Ultimately,too.”Imoved 15 of my plants from New York to L.A.: four in the car, eight via plane and three through the mail. I preferred flying with them over the other options because it was the quickest, most straightfor ward process, but the plants that traveled via car seemed to arrive healthier and happier than the rest.

For the last couple of months before you make the move, concentrate on making sure that your plants are healthy and well watered — not over watered — and they’re fertilized and have no visible pests anywhere.
Compared to flying or driv ing, mailing plants is the most expensive and stressful way to get them to your destination. I paid a total of $122 to ship three plants — a money tree and two types of pothos — in two boxes.
“You basically have to imagine that at any point, someone is going to drop kick the box over a fence,” Horst said.
Considering the cost of the bin and the space needed, this was certainly the cheapest option. Ultimately, all four of my plants made it from Brook lyn to Minneapolis (where my roommate stopped to visit family) with no spillage or signs of stress. The rest of the trip to L.A. was similarly smooth, and though I wish there’d been space for another plant or two, I’d be wary of packing larger plants alongside heavy boxes.
choose, it’s worth stuffing all of the extra space in each plant’s box very thoroughly.
“I generally find paper is best as a packing material,” Horst said, suggesting any paper larger than a standard 8-by-11inch sheet. “Slightly fluffy, but you don’t want it to be easily crushable either.”
and brought extra newspaper and tape with me in case I had to rewrap my plants on the other side of security.
more rigid protection might be necessary for a car filled with boxes and moving miscellany. Horst warned that it’s more difficult to move taller plants on their side if they’re already in large, heavy ceramic pots.
Packing plants
On the plane
I flew back and forth from Brooklyn to L.A. twice during the month of my move, so I decided to bring several plants in a carry-on bag both times.
This project also didn’t stop me from buying a large fiddle leaf fig and bird of paradise at Ikea before I even bought a couch, and seeing all of my favorite plants truly made my new L.A. house feel more like home.

I chose to wrap each of my plants’ foliage in newspaper and brown paper, padding the soil down in each pot with damp paper towels.
When I mentioned the dilemma to a friend’s mom, she told me her new neighbors had pulled up to their home in a van rented specifically to transport their houseplants, which they call “their babies.” I could re late. I mean, it’s hard to not feel attached to a plant when you’ve cheered every time a new leaf unfurled.SoIdecided to find out how, exactly, I could move house plants a long distance — for me, it would be about 2,500 miles.
“I generally find anything 6 feet and under is actually a breeze to fit in the back of a Prius,” Horst said.
When Danae Horst moved to Los Angeles from Seattle a decade ago, she knew she couldn’t bring all of her be lovedNow,plants.sheestimates that she has more than 100 plants at her home in Pasadena, and her plant nursery, Folia Collective, has figured out its own ways of transporting plants both locally and nationally.
I contemplated whether it was worth the hassle to move any of the 50 or so houseplants that filled my oddly shaped corner apartment. Surely I could find some monsteras, begonias and birds of paradise in sunny California. But I just couldn’t surrender to the sad ness of leaving behind my most sentimental plants, like those grown from my mom’s cuttings.

How to move your houseplants 2,500 miles
Figure out what’s worth moving
Some of my houseplants were obviously not going to make the cut, like the street rescues and the propagations that never quite flourished, but others took more consideration.

Folia Collective often chooses to tape plants down to the box to keep them in one spot, filling the dead space in the rest of the box to prevent any shifting.
