Technique for planting bare root trees In general terms, the odds of a successful tree planting can be significantly increased if the planting is done in the fall. Fall planting allows the tree time to begin to develop its root system without the stress of supplying water to rapidly growing leaves. However, as in most things plant related, there are exceptions. Bare root trees are one of those exceptions. This is not as much an optimal planting time issue as it is a plant availability issue. Bare root trees must be dug and prepared for delivery when they are dormant and kept in cold storage until delivery. This makes for a spring delivery/availability. Consider the following suggestions when planting your bare root trees: • As soon as the

new tree would not be too extreme. Be careful not to pile mulch against the trunk as this can lead to premature failure. • Concerning the addition of fertilizer or soil additives; if a soil test indicates a need (please don’t assume) for a particular nutrient, it can be incorporated into the back fill soil or applied as a top dress. Avoid piles of fertilizer as direct contact with the roots can cause problems. Additives such as peat moss or potting soil should be avoided as they can create a “flowerpot” effect. This is a situation where the plant has no need to develop roots into the surrounding soil because everything
is readily available close by. This is another potential cause of failure as the plant matures. For more information of this or any other horticultural topic, you can contact Keith Reed, the Horticulturist in the

Sansevieria is a perfect house plant By Maureen Gilmer Tribune News Service
silvery blue, a very popular choice for highbrow modern rooms. Most hybrids fall into one of two groups: upright forms like the species and “bird’s nest” dwarfs that are very short and fill a wide pot or bowl nicely. High contrast var-
iegations give the plants more presence in shaded locations where cream or yellow edges and stripes stand out in gloom. It’s not uncommon to find some of the newer forms reverting to type, particularly when grown outdoors in frost-free climates such as
New Orleans. Elsewhere Sansevieria is sold in the house plant section of the home improvement store or garden center away from freezing temperatures. Sansevieria, like so many other succulents, is eager to reproduce asexually because dry climates
limit seed germination. The original plant sends out thick roots the diameter of your thumb that travel outward to sprout leaves at intervals. These are all clones of the mother that may be severed and easily transplanted elsewhere. Dividing the rhi-
zomes is essential to repotting root-bound plants. The rhizomes are so strong they can literally crack a terra cotta pot or tear a plastic nursery pot. They also send out roots from drain holes when fully potbound to continually search for more earth and water.

Are you a houseplant killer? Do yours either turn brown and crispy or black and soggy? If so, consider growing the never-die house plant that has graced American homes since the 1800s. Sansevieria, known as snake plant or mother-in-law’s tongue, began here as a problem-solver for nature-loving Victorians. They lived in dark houses with voluminous drapes on the windows, so they couldn’t get house plants to survive. With so little natural light, they needed a plant that could live under such conditions and still look good every day. The British gathered plants like crazy and sent them to Kew, then to America. From southern Africa they brought a new fiber plant that had been traditionally called the Zulu bow string plant. The leaves are like a perennial iris in habit and shape, but wider and flat. Their tough fibrous nature is a lot like yucca or agave, both similar North American fiber-bearing succulents. Sansevieria grows a lot like marginal plants that can tolerate inundation as well as very dry conditions. That explains why you can overwater and underwater these
plants and they’re still happy. Each plant develops thick traveling rhizomes much like cattails that spread underground, sending up new sprouts around the mother. Eventually whole colonies may result because very few forms of wildlife will eat Sansevieria, even in drought. Their tissues contain unpalatable toxins to protect from big game browsers. In the wild, these plants are understory species found in savannah plant communities of very hot, inland South Africa. Here the dry season is far more challenging than maritime Cape Town. Sansevierias like to dwell under the canopies of trees amid grasses and shrubs in woodlands of varying density. The commonly grown species, Sansevieria trifasciata, demonstrates this tolerance as it was the Victorian drawing room favorite that vanished, then reappeared a century later in post-war ranch houses all over the West. Now that you know how little light and water these plants demand, you can feel good about using them to accent your home this year. Since the 1950s, breeders of Sansevieria have developed a huge range of unique hybrids that offer new colors such as

New budget holds hidden tax benefits WASHINGTON – Call it buried tax treasure for homeowners: Deep inside the behemoth 654-page bipartisan budget bill recently signed into law by President Trump are little-noticed extensions of key taxcode benefits that expired in 2016, but now can be used for upcoming 2017 tax filings. Potentially the most popular is aimed at millions of buyers and owners who pay mortgage-insurance premiums on conventional, FHA and VA loans. Roughly 4.1 million owners took write-offs averaging more than $1,500 during 2015, the most recent year for which statistics are available. Mortgage-insurance industry officials predict that at least that many will be able to qualify for the benefit on their 2017 tax returns – provided they learn the deduction has been revived for the year. Mortgage insurance is designed to cover a portion or all of a lender’s risk of loss in the event of default on home loans where borrowers make less than a 20 percent down payment. The coverage is especially commonplace – and important – on mortgages made to first-time purchasers and to households with
The Nation’s Housing Column KENNETH R. HARNEY moderate or lower incomes. Fees are either folded into borrowers’ monthly payments or paid in a lump sum up front. Congress first authorized tax deductions for mortgage-insurance premiums more than a decade ago, but legal authority for the write-offs lapsed at the end of 2016. The new budget bill provides for a retroactive extension for premiums paid during 2017, but it’s silent about future deductions, including for 2018. To qualify for the benefit, borrowers must pass a couple of tests: The home securing the insured mortgage must have been their principal residence during the year rather than a second home or investment property. And their adjusted gross income must have totaled less than $100,000. Deductible amounts phase down to zero for taxpayers with incomes up to $110,000. Another popular tax-code provision brought back to life retroactively for 2017 filings:
Elimination of tax liability on mortgage debt forgiven by lenders in connection with short sales, foreclosures and loan modifications. Without this special exception to the law, financially distressed homeowners would otherwise be subject to the tax code’s traditional, harsh treatment of canceled debt: Any amounts forgiven are taxed as ordinary income, at regular marginal rates – essentially hitting owners with prodigious tax bills at the very time they are least able to pay, following a foreclosure or short sale. If, for example, a lender wrote off $100,000 as part of a short-sale arrangement, the IRS could demand income taxes on that $100,000, despite the fact that the sellers had lost all their equity and were in bad financial shape already. Originally passed by Congress during the housing crisis of the last decade, the special exception benefited thousands of owners who struggled with job losses, medical bills and other financial
challenges during the Great Recession and the years following. Though foreclosures and short sales have declined steadily during the post-recession recovery, they are still a significant presence in the real estate market. According to ATTOM Data Solutions, lenders started the foreclosure process on nearly 384,000 properties during 2017. The amounts canceled by lenders often range into the tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars; some exceed $1 million. Though Congress renewed the special housing exception to the debt-forgiveness rule multiple times, it expired at the end of 2016. But under the new budget-bill agreement extension, homeowners who had mortgage debt canceled by their
lender during 2017 may be eligible for tax relief. IRS guidelines for the program are spelled out in the agency’s Publication 4681. Maximum eligible amounts of mortgage debt canceled range up to $2 million ($1 million if you’re married filing separately). Other potentially useful expired tax benefits that were revived retroactively for 2017 under the budget agreement involve energy-conserving improvements made to your home. The new extension allows you to get a tax credit of 10 percent of what you spent on certain improvements such as insulation, energy-efficient windows and doors and roofs. The cost of installing the improvements cannot be included in the calculation of the credit amount. You may also be

After extreme weather, lupine can help rebuild gardens By Maureen Gilmer Tribune News Service
even thrives, in barren ground where little else will. A perfect example is the plethora of lupine that tend to hug roadsides in dense mats of low purple flowers. These are the annual species that thrive on moisture trapped beneath the paving. It seeps out in the gravelly shoulders long after rain ceases to fall. This virtually infertile verge catches all the seed to create incredibly dense annual lupine displays flanking pavement. Another example are cliff faces where these annual lupine show up in extreme conditions. As
ephemeral annuals, seed washes down the cliff face with rain to catch in the nooks and crannies. Here they will germinate along with native monkey-flower. After maturing they leave seed to grow next year. Consider growing the big inland native sub-shrub, Lupinus albifrons, or silver lupine. They thrive on hot alluvial slopes or road base and decomposed granite on the steepest inclines imaginable. These root deeply into the granular base for anchorage and moisture deeper inside the hillside. These perennials show they enjoy
porous ground that keeps them properly wet and dry, with nothing but rainfall to become established. Along the coast the best perennial is Lupinus arboreus, which offers a similar plant that adapts to fog and maritime conditions. Such a perennial is ideal for post fire mudslide zones as well as burned over sites north of Los Angeles. Mixed lupine wildflower seed can be distributed by hand over any site to assist in revegetation. Not only will the annuals thrive in burned over earth, they may self sow and

If your land has been charred, saturated, salinified, dehydrated, liquified, bulldozed and frozen by extreme weather, you may need to revegetate. The sooner it is stabilized with living things, the less soil damage will occur in the long term. Start with great looking native perennials for interest and color that chases away disaster blues. Certain plants are called colonizers because they are the first to show up in disturbed places. Lupine is the most well known, as it is a species of Western wildflowers that range from short annuals to semiwoody perennials. What makes them so special is not just their epic blue flowers, but their means of obtaining nitrogen, which allows them to survive in disaster areas. Because natural disasters can change the nitrogen content in the soil or make it unavailable to plants, many natives don’t show up in these areas until well after the event. More immediately the lupine pop up in the wreckage just
as the red poppies of France followed the damage to land suffering trench warfare. In Europe though, nitrogen was available due to the spilled blood enhancing the corn poppy, Europe’s colonizer that flourished after the Armistice. In the West, the nitrogen-deficient conditions make lupines thrive. These are among the legumes, which include peas and beans. You’ll know this by the pods that follow lupine flowers. Legumes have a unique ability to use atmospheric nitrogen in lieu of soil nitrogen due to an unusual mycorrhizal relationship in its roots. This makes lupines one of the best revegetation perennials because it will not have to struggle through the first year’s low nitrogen conditions. In the past, lupines were called “wolf flowers” because they grew where no other wildflowers dare to sprout. The ancients noticed this and believed lupines chased away all other plants around them. Modern science proved it was simply that lupine survives,

Though no injuries had been reported at the time of the January recall, the company and the CPSC agreed that the mold poses “a risk of respiratory or other infections in individuals with compromised immune systems, damaged lungs or an allergy to mold.” The comforters were sold between Aug. 24 and Oct. 17 last year at prices ranging from $70 to $110, depending on their size. Affected owners can return their comforter to any Bed Bath & Beyond location for a full refund. Visit the company’s website at www. bedbathandbeyond. com, or call 800462-3966 for more

com. More information about these and other recalls can be obtained from the Consumer Product Safety Commission’s website (www.cpsc.gov), or by calling its consumer hotline (800638-2772). *** REAL ESTATE TRIVIA: Complaints against debt-collection agencies top the list of grievances filed by consumers with the Federal Trade Commission, the FTC says, followed by scams operated by crooks who masquerade as government officials, utility representatives or other authorities. Cases of identity-theft rank third. *** DEAR MR. MYERS: Can borrowers go to jail if they don’t make their mortgage payments? ANSWER: No, unless the loan was obtained through fraud or under other illegal circumstances. ***
DEAR MR. MYERS: My fiance and I want to buy a home. I have an excellent credit rating, but my fiance’s score is crummy. I am told that when we marry, my current score will drop and that I will automatically “inherit” 50 percent of his debt on the day of our June wedding. Is this true? ANSWER: No, it’s not true. Your personal credit score won’t automatically drop on your wedding day, and you won’t be responsible for any of his premarital debt, unless you had agreed to co-sign for his previous loans or credit cards. Still, this doesn’t necessarily mean that you won’t run into problems if the two of you later decide to buy a home. When you apply for a mortgage or other joint debt, the lender will consider
both of your credit histories when making its decision to approve or reject the application. That means that his checkered credit history could require the two of you to pay a higher interest rate or larger fees, assuming you can get a loan at all. You might be able to avoid those higher charges if you earn enough money by yourself and can leverage your sterling individual credit history into getting a mortgage in your name only. You could then add your new husband’s name to the title to the property after the deal closes. The drawback: You would be the only one who’s legally responsible for paying back the money, even though your spouse would own half of the home. This is an important issue to discuss with your betrothed before making a major purchase.

Stillwater NewsPress • Friday, February 23, 2018
The federal government’s consumer watchdog agency has recently ordered several recalls of defective and potentially dangerous home-related items. DEAR MR. MYERS: You used to keep readers updated on home-related product recalls on a regular basis, but you haven’t done so for several months. Why not? ANSWER: Because, thankfully, there weren’t many major recalls of items that Americans use in or around their homes throughout most of autumn. But that all changed about the time that winter began: During the past 60 days, the federal Consumer Product Safety Commission has announced several recalls of common household products, all of which pose the risk of injury or even death to owners. Retail giant Bed Bath & Beyond recently issued a recall of 175,000 units of its popular Hudson Comfort-
