Garden-pedia Joins Seed Keeper Project<\/h2>\n

\"Garden-pediaThe 6th annual Seed Keeper Project<\/a>begins Monday,February 1, 2016.<\/strong>The purpose of the project is to recognize school gardens in all 50 states and bring attention to their usefulness as a classroom setting.
\nEach winning school garden will receive a Seed Keeper Home Farmer seed storage system<\/a>, a certificate of recognition, a Seeds of the Month Club<\/a> membership for one year, and a copy of Garden-pedia<\/em><\/a> by Maria Zampini and Pam Bennett. The person(s) nominating the school garden will be mentioned in the letter accompanying the certificate.
\nHow the Seed Keeper Project works:<\/p>\n

Yearly Plants Recognized<\/h2>\n

The Perennial Plant Association has announced their 2016 Perennial Plant of the year<\/a> winner: Anemone<\/em>‘Honorine Jobert.’
\n\"Honorine<\/a>
\nThis Japanese anemone flowers in late summer and early fall when colorful displays of most other perennials have left the landscape. It is hardy to Zone 4 and produces 2 to\u00a03 inch\u00a0pure white flowers with clusters of bright yellow stamens in the center of each blossom that last for several weeks.
\n\"Society<\/a>
\nThe Society of Municipal Arborists<\/a> has named \u2018Musashino\u2019 Zelkova as their 2016 SMA Urban Tree of the Year.<\/a> SMA focuses on \u201cThe right tree for the right place.\u201d
\nThe yearly selection must be adaptable to a variety of harsh urban growing conditions and have strong ornamental traits as a street tree.

Indoor Gardening<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re like me and live in a cold region, you\u2019re not doing much gardening outdoors but that doesn\u2019t stop you from enjoying plants indoors.
\n\"Indoor
\nAND you don\u2019t have to be a plant expert either! Goodness knows I have (and still) kill my fair share of plants accidentally. But, I seem to be getting the hang of indoor gardening in my old age!
\nSucculents – like the magnetic pots pictured above which I just got from Arizona East<\/a> – are simple since they take little water.
\n\"Magnifica\"
\nI also love my Medinilla magnifica.<\/em><\/a> I got a blooming one at the beginning of July and the bloom only now fell off. It has a new flower, too!
\nFor tips on houseplants, I suggest following my friend Lisa Steinkopf, also known as \u201cThe Houseplant Guru.\u201d<\/a> You can also find her recommendations at your finger tips on theArmitage App.<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n

Winter Reads<\/h2>\n

Despite the cold and snow, spring is less than 60 days away! Here are a couple of good books from my garden writer friends to curl up with on the couch in front of the fire.
\nJonathan Bardzik\u2019sSeasons to Taste<\/em><\/a>cookbook offers recipes by season, focusing on when ingredients will be available fresh from your garden or at farm markets.
\n\"Seasons<\/a>
\nIf you\u2019re like me, you\u2019ll have more than you can eat from your garden. So you have a choice:\u00a0don\u2019t let it go to waste but instead either give it to your family\/friends, donate it to the local food bank or preserve it for use in the off season.
\n\"Yes,<\/a>
\nPreserving, whether by canning or freezing, is not as hard as you might think and Daniel Gasteiger proves it inYes, You Can!<\/em><\/a>\u00a0The benefit of enjoying fresh foods during the off season is well worth the little time and effort it takes to capture and utilize every veggie, fruit or herb you painstakingly grew.\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
