Fast route to successful gardening?

By DEAN FOSDICK Associated Press

Garden centers, with their vast collections of plant colors, sizes and shapes, can be intimidating to inexperienced buyers.

But you can become a discerning purchaser with a little homework and by quizzing the sales people as you shop. “Usually, when shopping, I go early before the crowds and also before the staff are worn out,� said Jack McKinnon, a garden coach from the San Francisco Bay area. “I like asking questions like, ‘What are you getting in next?’ ‘What is new?’ and ‘What is the most popular now?’ If it’s early in the season, you may learn a lot that puts you ahead of the masses in trends.�

The most important factor in plant shopping, however, is the health of the plant, McKinnon said. “As one nurseryman I trust says: ‘Don’t accept ugly plants.’ And he doesn’t give refunds.�

How can you tell if a plant is diseased, pest-ridden or beyond its prime? “Look for any unusual brown, black or gray spotting on the foliage,� said Rizanino (Riz) Reyes, a landscape designer and owner of RHR Horticulture in Shoreline, Wash., “Any dead sections that are beyond just grooming to make it look good should be avoided,� he said. Also

avoid plants “that may be unusually red or sickly yellow looking.�

It’s a good idea to check plant roots at the nursery.

It’s risky to buy plants that are root-bound, too wet or too dry, although that may mean removing them from the pot to examine them. “If you politely ask a garden center staff member, any reputable retail center should stand by their product and allow you to do it, or they may do it for you,� Reyes said.

Other plant-buying-like-apro tips: O Shop by price and shop the sales. Find out when new plants are usually delivered and displayed. “Try to have a relationship with the nursery owner or staff,� McKinnon said.

O Bare-root, container grown, or balled and burlapped? “Bare-root plats have not had a chance to get root-bound in a pot, and you can see what you’re buying,� McKinnon said. “Both are definite advantages.�

O Work from a plan. “I recommend having a general list so you avoid too many impulse buys on plants that may not end up getting planted or worse, get forgotten,� Reyes said.

O Annuals vs. perennials: “Perennials come back and can look great the year’round,� Reyes said. “Annuals provide traffic-stopping impact and remarkable

U.S. home prices dip for second month

By CHRIsTOPHeR s.

RUGABeR AP Economics Writer

WASHINGTON – U.S. home prices fell for the second straight month in December as brutally cold

weather, tight supply and higher costs slowed sales.

The Standard & Poor’s/ Case-Shiller 20-city home price index declined 0.1 percent from November to December, matching the previous month’s decline.

The index is not adjusted for seasonal variations, so the dip partly reflects slower buying as winter weather set in.

For all of 2013, however, prices rose by a healthy 13.4 percent, mostly

because of big gains earlier in the year. That was the largest calendar year gain in eight years. But the yearover-year gain slowed from November’s 13.7 percent pace. That’s only the second time that year-over-year

increases have declined since prices began recovering two years ago.

The figures come after other reports show that home sales and construction have slowed after strong gains last year. Most

economists expect the housing recovery will continue this year, though likely at a slower pace. “The market should con-

to their highest level in five years.

Other economists are even more optimistic.

Economists at IHS Global Insight are forecasting that new-home sales will hit 528,000 this year, a 23.4 percent increase over last year.

Wednesday’s brighterthan-expected news on housing helped lift spirits on Wall Street, sending the Standard & Poor’s 500 index back into record territory and sharply boosting stock prices of several home builders.

Shares of both PulteGroup and Lennar rose about 3 percent.

Lowe’s shares surged nearly 5 percent. The home-improvement retailer said its net income rose 6 percent in the most recent quarter, thanks in part to the housing recovery.

Housing indicators are especially hard to read in the winter because of the unpredictable effects of severe weather. But analysts said a variety of signs point to underlying strength that should support sales gains in the March-June spring selling season. “We expect any drop-off in housing to be a pause and not a retrenchment,� said Michael Gapen, an

economist at Barclays Research.

Economists are optimistic about further sales gains because they think the overall economy will strengthen this year as more people find jobs and last year’s drag from higher federal taxes and government spending cuts eases.

The sales gain for new homes in January was led by a 74 percent surge in the Northeast. Sales were up 11 percent in the West and 10 percent in the South. The only region where sales

Only six cities recorded higher prices in December: Dallas, Las Vegas, Miami, San Francisco, Tampa, Fla., and Washington, D.C. Home prices in all 20 cities rose compared with a year ago.

Mortgage rates are roughly a full percentage point higher than they were last spring, although they remain low by historical standards. Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said last week that the average rate on the 30-year loan is 4.33 percent.

Sales of existing homes

declined was the Midwest, where they fell 17 percent, likely a reflection of winter storms.

The median price of a new home sold in January was up 3.4 percent from a year ago to $260,100.

Home prices are forecast to rise in 2014 but more slowly than last year. The Standard & Poor’s/CaseShiller 20-city home price index rose by a healthy 13.4 percent in 2013. That was the largest calendar gain in eight years.

One assumption underly-

plunged in January to the slowest pace in 18 months. And builders broke ground on 16 percent fewer homes in January compared with December, the Commerce Department said this week. That was the second straight decline.

Builders also requested fewer permits in January for the third straight month, suggesting construction remained weak this month.

The declines came after existing home sales reached 5.1 million in 2013, the best showing in

ing economists’ expectations on housing: Even as the Federal Reserve keeps scaling backs its bond purchases, which were used to keep long-term rates low, mortgage rates will rise only gradually this year.

The average rate on a 30year mortgage rose to 4.33 percent last week, up from 4.28 percent the previous week. Rates had surged about 1.25 percentage points from May through September, peaking at 4.6 percent, but have since retreated a bit.

seven years. And builders started work on 976,000 houses and apartments last year, the most in six years.

Some economists say the CaseShiller figures overstate recent price gains because they include foreclosures. Foreclosed homes usually sell at steep discounts.

As the proportion of those sales declines, the index rises more sharply.

Other indexes that exclude foreclosures show smaller but steady increases.
