Carrots are especially good to plant from seeds right now in deep, loose soil. And radishes do very well also.

Use a fan deck of paint colors, available at paint and hardward stores, to help decide your color.

art. When you put a piece of art against a white wall, it isolates the painting so it becomes like a postage stamp – a thing in a box. If you put the same painting against a colored wall, it brings the painting to life.�

Martin doesn’t like white walls, though he’ll use off-white in a ceiling. He cautions that bright white trim and a bright white ceiling will make other colors look brighter than they would if you were using an off-white. What can work, he says, “if you really like white,� is to choose a warm white for walls in a flat sheen, then high-gloss trim the same color. “It’s a very subtle thing to do,� he said.

Don’t pick colors online, advises Martin, because they can be distorted. But there is an art to studying the paper fan deck of paint colors in the store. Bring a white piece of paper with a square cut out so you can focus on the color you’re

considering without being influenced by the hues around it.

And if you’re color-challenged and unsure whether the white you’re eyeing is more on the rosy side or the orange side, follow it in the fan deck from its palest iteration to its deepest, to see its true undertone.

Warm tints include red, orange, yellow, and offshoots like peach and apricot, but if you want to cool a room off, go for colors like blue and purple. In between are the neutrals – taupe, gray, beige.

And don’t get overwrought about the choices. “I think most people have more judgment than they think they do,� Eiseman said. “You look at something, you have a doubt about it because your eye is telling you something is off here. Or you look at it and it pleases you. In the end, it’s your eye and your comfort level.�

One room can feature several different shades of white.

Here, a warmer white is on the wall inset to punctuate the classic trim detail and add to the formal feel of the space.

Blooms and bulbs that won’t please deer

By LEE REICH Associated Press

Chomping down on a rosette of freshly emerging tulip leaves is just the thing to drive away winter doldrums – for deer. Crocuses probably taste almost as good to them.

There’s no need, though, for us humans to forsake the blossoms of spring bulbs; there are plenty that don’t appeal to deer.

Daffodils, for example. Deer won’t eat them. So plant daffodils to your heart’s content without any worry that their tops will be chomped off before the flowers even unfold.

Hyacinths also don’t particularly appeal to deer. Although hyacinths were among the most fashionable flowers in the 18th century, they’re not among the most popular bulbs now. Perhaps it’s because they’re a little stiff and formal, so they don’t blend well with currently popular naturalistic landscapes. Still, if you’ve got a place for them, go ahead and plant them and don’t worry about deer upsetting your design.

Equally deer proof and, in this case, easily integrated into naturalistic plantings, are grape hyacinths, or muscari. These tiny bulbs are impervious to cold,

and spread to eventually blanket the ground with popsicle sticks packed with pure white, violet, or deep blue flowers.

MANy SMALL BULBS ARE DEERPROOF

Actually, once you segue over into the world of small bulbs, you open the door to a slew of flowers that both naturalize and are passed over by hungry deer.

Some are also the first harbingers of spring: Snowdrop and glory of the snow often bloom right through the snow, the former with white blossoms, the latter in white, pink or blue. Each of winter aconite’s yellow blossoms, also appearing in very early spring, is cradled in hand-shaped leaves, decorative in their own right well after the blossoms dry up.

After this early show subsides, striped squill, also known as puschkinia, could share the stage with muscari, both blooming fairly early. The loose, pale blue clusters of striped squill won’t do for the garden what Darwin tulips do – or would do if the deer wouldn’t eat them – but they are welcome nonetheless.

Crown imperial is a deer-proof bulb that could provide the elegance of tulips. The stalks shoot

skyward 2 to 3 feet and then are capped by a tuft of leaves encircled below by a “crown” of downward-pointing red or yellow flowers. Crown imperial’s relatives, Persian lily and guinea hen flower, are also passed over by deer and are beautiful in a more relaxed rather than regal manner.

English bluebells and wood hyacinth, both botanically squills, share midseason bloom with crown imperial. These two squills are perfect for naturalizing and brightening the dappled shade of a mid-spring woodland.

DEER ALSO DON’T ENJOy ONIONS

Even as spring rolls into summer, there are colorful bulbs that can make deer look elsewhere for a meal. Flowering onions – alliums – fill this time slot, mostly appearing as pastel pompoms atop slender stalks.

If you’re unfamiliar with the ornamental, flowering onions, take a look at chives when they come into bloom. Now imagine those blossoms in deep blue, or in pink, even yellow. And rather than golf-ball size clusters of flowers, imagine flower heads the size of volleyballs, or baseball-size clusters sending out thin streamers of male flowers like fireworks.

The Star of Persia (Allium christophii) growing in New Paltz, N.Y. Flowering onions -- alliums -- mostly appear as pastel pompoms atop slender stalks. Plant this ornamental onion for beauty and not for eating by deer or humans.

These are some of the variations on the basic allium flower theme.

This sampling of bulbs should be sufficient to convince you that deer need not reduce your spring landscape to a monochrome of green. After once watching deer

munch the leaves off a friend’s garlic plants, I do hesitate to recommend any plant as completely deer-proof. Still, planting the above-mentioned bulbs generally sends out the signal: No food here, deer.

Yellen also made clear she believes the still-subpar economic recovery will continue to need the help of low rates for some time.
