In the Garden
Not all roses are made alike S
eeing gardens awash in rose blossoms this time of year is undoubtedly what prompted my sister-inlaw to call me for suggestions on what roses to plant. We’ll see if she can sustain her enthusiasm until early fall or spring, either of which would be better times for planting. Not that you couldn’t plant roses now — if they were purchased growing in pots and were diligently watered (1 gallon of water per plant, first on a daily schedule and then tapering off to a weekly schedule). As for what type of roses to plant, that’s a matter of taste. I cautioned her to consider, above all else, disease resistance, which varies considerably among LEE REICH classes and varieties of roses. After all, why plant something that you know is going to be sick unless you douse it with pesticides? HYBRID TEA ROSES HAVE PEST PROBLEMS Fortunately for me, my least favorite roses, hybrid teas, also tend to be those most susceptible to disease. I happen not to like those pointed buds and large, high-centered blossoms in traffic-stopping colors alone atop long stalks. They’re OK for cutting, but not in the garden. Still, if someone likes hybrid tea roses — and they are the ones most commonly planted — some, such as Friendship, Paradise, Secret and Sheer Elegance, do resist disease. For that hybrid tea shape on a more landscape-worthy plant, grandiflora or floribunda roses are the ones to grow. Both bear their blossoms in clusters, with grandifloras having fewer but larger blossoms than floribundas. Some of the better grandifloras are Gold Medal, Prima Donna, and the original, making its debut in 1954, Queen Elizabeth. Floribundas include Chinatown, Escape, Dainty Maid and many more. Grandifloras and especially floribundas are generally more cold-hardy and disease-resistant than hybrid teas. ANTIQUES AND SPECIES ROSES Shrub roses are an ill-defined group that can include antique roses, species roses and even some fine new hybrids. What they all have in common is that they are full-bodied bushes — not necessarily large, but lush with leaves and blossoms. Antique roses are those cultivated before 1867, when the first hybrid tea rose, La France, entered the scene. Antique roses are grouped into families with names evocative of romantic, old gardens: Gallica, Damask, Alba, Centifolia and Moss. Variety names such as Belle Isis, Gloire de France, Maiden’s Blush and Belle Amour complete the image. Antique roses have a blowsy, casual air about them. These are roses that aren’t offended by offering support for clematis vines, or by having delphinium spires poke up through their branches. The blossoms have distinctive fragrances and pastel petals crumpled atop stems like crepe paper in a teacup. Many antique roses are coldhardy and disease-resistant. One of my favorites is a Damask rose named Rosa Ispahan with intensely fragrant, pink blooms. Species roses, another kind of shrub rose, are gardenworthy wild roses that have been moved over the centuries into gardens. Cold hardiness and disease resistance reflect their wild heritage. Blossoms of species roses usually have a single row of petals, bestowing a simple charm. Father Hugo’s rose is a species rose whose ferny foliage provides the show all season long, after the cheery, lemon-yellow blossoms have faded. MODERN SHRUB ROSES HAVE IT ALL Most antique and species roses flower but once a season, which is undoubtedly one reason why their popularity was eclipsed by hybrid tea roses. (Rosa Ispahan, the antique rose, makes up for this lapse by flowering over a long period.) Enter now modern shrub roses. Some have it all: full

RIGHT AT HOME:
Tools to make the perfect slice of toast By KIM COOK Associated Press Toast is one of life’s great comfort foods. Any amateur can make it: Put bread in toasting device, push button, wait, remove and slather with something. But it’s also trendy: In recent years, toast has found a cozy spot among and under food trends like avocado, small-batch jam, artisanal cheese and free-range proteins of various types. “Toast is popular now because it’s a versatile concept,” says Jill Donenfeld, author of “Better on Toast: Happiness on a Slice of Bread — 70 Irresistible Recipes” (William Morrow Cookbooks, March 2015). “It’s pretty. It’s single serve. And it’s portable. Bread is just not something most people dislike.” Luckily, the toaster has evolved, too. While toaster ovens are popular for thick slices and for toppings, slot toasters in their modern iterations have lots of snazzy features. Countertop space and personal preferences may drive your decision. Some style-savvy options: Williams-Sonoma has Breville’s sleek toaster, in silver or cranberry red, with presets for multiple slices and levels of browning. The appliance is also a capacious countertop oven with convection baking. The company’s Signature 4-slice toaster is equipped with self-centering guides and 7 browning settings. (www.williamssonoma.com ) Smeg’s snazzy ‘50s-style slot toaster comes in retro hues like fire-engine red, and pastel pink, blue or cream. (www.westelm.com ) Dualit’s Architect 4-slice model lets you toast up both thick and thin slices at

(www.thehut.com ) Cuisinart’s Compact 2slice stainless toaster, with a handy defrost-then-toast feature and roomy toasting slots, would fit nicely on a tiny kitchen counter. (www.cuisinart.com ) At the high end of the market, Kitchenaid’s Pro Line 4-slice toaster comes in apple red, black, medallion silver and frosted pearl. LED lights above the settings allow you to operate the appliance in low light. A thoughtful “A Little Longer” button lets
you give your bread an extra tweak of toastiness if necessary. And an automatic Keep Warm function continues to keep your toast cozy for an extra three minutes, in case someone’s late to the table. (www.kitchenaid. com) Donenfeld’s an oldschool pan toaster; the technique makes for a uniformly buttery, crispy slice, she says. Greg Lofts, deputy food editor at Martha Stewart Living, has his own twist on the pan toast: “I prefer to toast bread in a dry, cast-iron skillet. This method yields a crispy,
golden exterior and soft, chewy interior — basically everything I want a piece of toast to be.” His pro tip: “I slice bread when it’s fresh and keep it in the freezer, so I can easily toast one slice at a time and enjoy it throughout the week. No more stale bread!” Whether you use a hightech appliance or a stick over an open flame, it’s hard to argue with toast’s simple charm. As Donenfeld writes in her book, “Food tastes better when it’s eaten on a piece of hot, crispy bread. There’s something primal about it.”

US homebuilder sentiment edges lower in June By ALEX VEIGA AP Business Writer U.S. homebuilders are feeling slightly less optimistic, a shift that follows a big drop in sales of new homes in April. The National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo builder sentiment index released Thursday declined to 67 this month. That’s down two points from a downwardly revised reading of 69 in May. Readings above 50 indicate more builders view sales conditions as good rather than poor. The index has been above 60 since September. The June index fell short of analyst predictions, which called for a reading of 69, according to FactSet. Readings gauging builders’ view of sales now and over the next six months also fell from last month. A measure of traffic by prospective buyers also edged lower. Sales of new homes registered the biggest monthly drop in more than two years in April, sliding to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 569,000. The April decline followed a sharp increase in March. May newhome sales data are due out next week. Despite the April sales slowdown, homebuilders have been benefiting this year from increased demand for homes, which has sales are running ahead of last year’s pace. More Americans are in a buying mood as job security has improved with low unemployment. But even with construction running ahead of last year’s pace, the supply of new and existing homes across much of the country remains tight, which limits sales. Construction of new homes fell for a second straight month in April, pushing activity to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.17 million units. That’s the lowest point in five months. Builders continue to grapple with a shortage of skilled construction workers and land parcels cleared for home construction. “As the housing market strengthens and more buyers enter the market, builders continue to express their frustration over an ongoing shortage of skilled labor and buildable lots that is impeding stronger growth in the single-family sector,” said Robert Dietz, the NAHB’s chief economist. This month’s builder index was based on 252 respondents. A measure of current sales conditions for single-family homes fell two points to 73, while an outlook for sales over the next six months slid two points to 76. Builders’ view of traffic by prospective buyers declined two points to 49.

Rare and unusual plant sale’s a draw for Nova Scotia town By KIM COOK Associated Press ANNAPOLIS ROYAL, Nova Scotia — They’re lined up three deep after lunch, eagerly awaiting the 1 o’clock opening. A bright yellow rope barrier holds everyone back. An outdoor concert? Black Friday at Walmart? No — these folks are at the Annapolis Royal Farmer’s Market for the Atlantic Canada Rare and Unusual Plant Sale. Nova Scotia is full of keen gardeners, and the late-spring sale has come to mark the unofficial start to gardening season here. Now in its eighth year, the sale was started by horticulturalist Jill Covill, who runs Bunchberry Nurseries just outside town. She spearheaded a community magnolia tree planting project 20 years ago, with 30 different cultivars and over 100 trees, turning Annapolis Royal into a magnolia capital. “We were getting lots of highseason and earlyfall visitors, but we wanted to draw people here in the shoulder season,” Covill says. Nestled beside the Annapolis River and Bay of Fundy waters, the valley town is protected from the
fiercest Atlantic weather by a gently ridged mountain. Locals refer to the area, which lies in USDA hardiness zone 5A, as the province’s “banana belt”; its relatively extended warm, sunny and robust growing season attracts many green thumbs. Rare plant sales are popular in many places where conditions make for avid gardening. The Atlantic Canada sale focuses on unusual flora. About 20 vendors now take part, and hundreds of people attend, from as far away as Ontario. “It’s now an integral part of the spring season in Annapolis Royal,” says Jane Nicholson, who owns an interior decor store in town and is a long-time member of the local business council. “It contributes immeasurably to the business and cultural life of the area.” This year, on a cool but sunny Sunday in late May, Peter Davies, the town crier charged with announcing pretty much anything official, was in his bright red, yellow and black period costume. He grandly called the sale open with a countdown.
MARQUETTE — Walt Maki of Select Realty has completed 90 hours of training and passed necessary testing to acquire his Graduate Realtor Institute designation. He is also a member of the Michigan Association of Realtors, the National Association of Realtors and Upper Peninsula Realtors.

By JOSH BOAK Associated Press WASHINGTON — Americans shopping for a house are facing an intensifying set of pressures: Fewer and fewer homes are being listed for sale, while prices are climbing at a pace that most incomes can’t possibly match. The May sales rereleased port Wednesday by the National Association of Realtors shows a housing market unable to meet the demand from would-be buyers. Sales edged up 1.1 percent in May to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.62 million, a decent gain amid a relatively stable job market with a robust 4.3 percent unemployment rate. But many possible buyers are finding their ambitions thwarted because there aren’t enough homes for sale. Sales listings have
plummeted 8.4 percent over the past 12 months to 1.96 million. On an annual basis, the number of homes for sale has declined for the past 24 months. Homes are staying on the market for a median of just 27 days, the briefest period since the Realtors began tracking the measure in 2011. The sales growth in these circumstances is a “testament to just how strong the draw of homeownership is right now,” said Svenja Gudell, chief economist at the real estate firm Zillow. “It’s no exaggeration to say that current buying conditions in many markets are terrible, with sellers in complete control and buyers forced to contend with cutthroat competition and intense pressure to make a deal,” Gudell said.
