What to grow in the winter

January 30, 2018

I had to wait a couple years for my variegated winter daphne to settle in before setting flowers but this year it’s making up for lost time. There’s something special about a plant that will bloom in the depth of winter, hold up to rain and scent the garden all at the same time. With beautiful rosy-pink flower clusters and attractive yellow-margined variegated foliage, daphne make a great foundation plant for dappled shade gardens. They are deer resistant and have low water requirements during the summer. What’s not to love?

We had so much fun at our Virtual Read to Achieve Assembly last Thursday, that we have decided to introduce our Virtual Math Warriors program, as well! Join us this Thursday, April 23 at 3:00PM PST on Facebook Live, as Santa Cruz Warriors In-Arena Host, Jon Root, leads us through a Virtual Math Warriors Assembly, presented by Kaiser Permanente. Jon will show his work to find the correct answers to two basketball related math problems, starting off with a question for the younger grades and working his way up to complete a question for the older grades. Math Warriors is a creative educational program that utilizes basketball to build excitement for math problems among students. Coupling hoops and numbers in the classroom provides students with a fresh and positive perspective on mathematics!
