New Succulent gardens available....

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Wed, 16 Jul 2014 15:18:00 +0000

Succulents prefer bright light, such as found on a south-facing window. Watch the leaves for indications that the light level is correct. Succulents should be watered generously in the summer. The potting mix should be allowed to dry between waterings, but do not underwater. Over watered plants are soft and discolored. The leaves may be yellow or white and lose their color. A plant in this condition may be beyond repair, but you can still remove it from its pot and inspect the roots.

Best of Charleston 2014

Clowning Around

Welcome to the Charleston City Paper’s annual Best of Charleston issue. But before we get to the winners, please give us a chance to apologize. We realize that some of you out there are scared to death of clowns. In fact, you’re probably sweating right now as you read this. Heck, you might have even checked your pulse a few times. And for that, we’re dreadfully sorry (oh and breathe deep, friend, breathe deep). Right now, you can either close this week’s issue and never look at it again — although you’ll have a difficult time escaping it since it’ll be on racks all around town — or you can just slip on a pair of oversized clown shoes and a red rubber nose and try to get over your fear, because, the next hundred-plus pages are jam-packed with clowns. And they’re helping us celebrate this year’s winners, from Best Restaurant to Best Massage Therapist to Best Troublemaker. As usual, we’ve also added a few new categories, like Best Juice Bar and Best Home Security Company. So quit clowning around and get to reading.

Charleston Horticultural Society Visits Tiger Lily Florist

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Mon, 11 Nov 2013 17:34:00 +0000

Clara and Manny,

I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful workshop and tour you set up for our members on Tuesday. They were thrilled beyond belief and your generosity with the giveaways was such a wonderful touch. We are so lucky to have you be a part of our educational outreach, and I cannot wait to plan a late Feb. workshop with you. I hope you can make it to Monday’s lecture on holiday greens as well. Let your staff know how truly amazing they were and how happy we are with the outcome.

Thank you both so much!
