Dear Friends:
Happy 2016!
When I was much younger, my grandfather used to tell me that as one grew older, one’s perception of time became compressed and the passing of days, weeks and months was a blur. With no context, that was impossible for me to fathom: it seemed like I would never grow up, let alone make it to the next summer vacation! You likely have heard the same refrain, and perhaps now are experiencing the same thing that I am when I write that I simply can’t believe it’s already January!
Being a gardener grounds me in a ritual-like observation of the passing of the seasons – not based on calendar holidays or on social media but on the natural cycles of plant growth, light, shadow and sun angle. Whether walking the grounds here or in another similar outdoor setting, I can at least temporarily slow down a bit, and savor the moment. The Japanese idiom “ichi-go ichi-e” describes a cultural concept of treasuring time spent with people. It translates roughly as “one time, one meeting” and refers to the fact that, despite seeing the same people in the same place multiple times, each meeting is unique, never to be replicated. Originating with the tea ceremony, it’s an important observation that when practiced reminds us to be “in the present.” I hope the tea masters don’t mind if I extrapolate that to encompass my “meetings” with plants, too, because I sincerely believe that a walk in the woods (or through the garden) is the perfect cure for tempus fugit. So you’ll understand when I say that it’s a lovely day to be at The Gardens. And I mean right now: today.
Project work in The Gardens proper is winding down, and work in the Garden Center is proceeding smoothly; completion should be sometime in mid-March. We’re excited about all of the positive changes and can’t wait to show them off a little to all of our members and visitors. Since the building has been closed for events during the construction, we’ve decided to push a few of our winter activities into spring. If you’ve been looking forward to our annual Members’ Celebration in January – sorry! It’s been moved. And the Spencer Lecture, usually in March? Not this year. Watch for more details about these and more in our bi-monthly email blasts and in the next issue of The Garden Dirt.
See you in The Gardens,

Dues To increase MarcH 1
The last time our basic rates were raised was in 2001. As of 2015, the economic realities have
caught up with us. While The Gardens has done a good job of keeping our costs down internally
and giving you the best services we can for your money, other factors are simply out of our control. Everyone’s costs have gone up in the
last 14 years.
For The Gardens, these include printing and postage, and many others. We have done as
much as we can to hold off an increase for over a decade, but now it is a necessity.
This step allows us to continue giving you the level of service you have come to expect and will ensure that high-quality educational programs and services will continue for all.
When does the new rate take effect?
March 1, 2016
How much are dues going up?
Trillium “Individual” level will increase from $45 to $50 per year.
Hydrangea “Family” level will increase from $60 to $70 per year.
Magnolia level will increase from $125 to $1345per year.
All other levels will not experience an increase at this time.
can i renew today and beat the price increase?
Yes, any current member can renew between January 1-February 28 and save on their 2016
dues.

You Made our night!On October 1, Birmingham Botanical Gardens kicked off Antiques at The Gardens with Stifel’s Gala in The Gardens. The annual black-tie event was reinvigorated for its tenth year, welcoming more than 500 guests to shop Alabama’s premiere antiques show. Guests made their way to Blount Plaza as the evening concluded, dancing to the sounds of the Atlanta Pleasure Band and enjoying desserts.

Good Things Growing…In The Gardens Fred Spicer, chief executive officer
Edgeworthia chrysantha, Chinese paperbush is a daphne relative (both are in the Thymeleaceae) that excels in the winter garden with fragrant cream-yellow flowers, but it’s a terrific specimen all year. My first exposure was in 2002 – I smelled it 100’ away – and I quickly bought a few for The Gardens: they have never disappointed.
In season, the plant sports 3-7” long, slightly drooping leaves that are a pale, matte-blue, owing to a coat of silky hairs. In early to mid-November decent pale yellow fall color can occasionally be seen [below right]. Leafless, the plant reveals a curious branching pattern where at each “break” three thick stems are typically produced, the longest distinctly horizontal and the shorter two upright. Numerous green, hazelnut-sized flower buds dangle at the tips of the smooth, reddish-brown stems. The effect is a strikingly coarse texture (I’d say “bold” when in leaf) on a beautifully-layered shrub that is wider (by half+) than tall. The oldest ones here are 6x10’.
The flower clusters can open as early as late January but really get going in early to mid-February, lasting a month or more, depending on the weather. The inside of each small floret
is bright yellow, the outside creamy-white [below top left]. A mature plant in bloom is stunning, the essentially cream-colored, golf ball-sized blooms appear to float across the top of the plant [below bottom left]. The fragrance is heavy, sweet-musky (not cloying) and carries a good distance. Unopened, flowers withstood a low of 6-7°F in January ‘14 with no injury. However, 8°F blasted off all open flowers in February ’15 (unopened flowers bloomed normally). Site in a shady location in rich, well-drained soils; water in summer if it flags. This is an easy and rewarding plant to grow.
Edgeworthia is relatively new and because several forms were introduced at about the same time, their names and their attributes were confused. E. chrysantha (possibly a tetraploid) has thicker stems, larger leaves, earlier flowers and abundant fragrance. Cultivar names include ‘Snow Cream’, ‘Winter’s Gold’ and ‘Nanjing Gold’ and indicate large-flowered forms. A sister species, E. papyrifera (possibly a diploid) is a bit smaller in all respects; it also flowers later and with scant fragrance. ‘Akebono’ (‘Red Dragon’ and ‘Jitsuko’s Red’ are likely synonyms) is worth checking out for its red-orange flowers [top]. Chinese paper bush stems are used to make calligraphy paper. Plants in public places in China, where the plant is known as lovers’ bush, are full of knots: people tie up the supple stems and believe that as the stems grow and the knots tighten, the love they represent strengthens.

Edgewood Garden Club members preparing tree seed for germinationThe Edgewood Garden Club has championed The Gardens’ Centennial Tree Program, making it an official on-going project in fulfillment of one of its primary objectives, “To protect and preserve native woodlands, trees, plants and birds for future generations.” For the last two years, club member Chris Underwood has coordinated about a dozen volunteers. Members of the club have cleaned, organized and labeled seed lots; placed seed in moist-chilling and monitored them for germination; selected and planted germinating seed in containers; and transplanted, weeded and fertilized seedlings. Club president and Perennial Society member Suzanne Clisby recently drove eighty miles round-trip to a planting site on an abandoned strip mine overlooking the Cahaba River, where about a hundred locally-sourced native upland oak seedlings were planted by ten
volunteers. Club members had sown the seed for these seedlings in the fall of 2014. Thank you, Edgewood Garden Club for supporting the Centennial Tree Program as it has grown in for the last two years, bringing the total number of seedlings produced and planted to 2,000 since the program began in 2009. Special thanks to Chris Underwood for coordinating this important work between the Edgewood Garden Club and the Gardens.

The Women’s auxiliary of birmingham
botanical gardens
Fifty years ago, Mrs. Virginia Black, secretary of Birmingham Botanical Society and Mr. William R. J. Dunn, Jr., president, saw the need to have a group of women, interested in The Gardens, aid the Society in various projects and to raise funds. Virginia wrote to members of the Brooklyn Botanic Women’s Auxiliary and modeled ours after theirs. At a founder’s luncheon in 1967, the Women’s Auxiliary was formed. The Auxiliary started the first Garden Fiesta held under “the big tent” in May of 1969 and raised $6,500 to go to the building fund. They also helped establish the Gatehouse Gift Shop at The Gardens in 1973. Throughout the years they served as docents and ambassadors for the gardens. Later, in 1989, they started Glorious Gardens. In June 1997, the Society and the Auxiliary restructured and merged into one support group. For more than 30 years the Auxiliary supported The Gardens with their time, energy and resources.
