How to plan to plant according to the weather and climate

The other day I stopped by historic Gamble Gardens in Palo Alto. I had some free time before my eye appointment and Sherman, my dog, wanted to stretch his legs. You can mark time with the events in the botanical world and this garden is packed with good examples. School kids were tending the vegetable starts and beneficial-friendly flower beds. Volunteers were looking after the formal rose garden and tulip beds. Visitors like me and Sherman just wanted to take in all the early spring beauty.

Dear Editor,

I'm grateful to know the Banner staff did not write it, but I would like to point out some gross factual inaccuracies from the "Christmas tidbits" section in the December 4 paper.

The gospel of Luke actually says, "So they [shepherds] hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger.” Luke 2:16 NIV
