Perennials can also be used to add fragrance and texture to gardens, as well as attract beneficial wildlife such as butterflies and hummingbirds. Planting perennials in the fall is like making a longterm investment-one that pays dividends the next year. Herbaceous perennials are plants that die back to the ground in cold weather but resume growing in spring. This feature offers gardeners a wide selection of plant sizes, flower colors and forms, and seasons of bloom to choose from. Expert Advice Explains flower specialist Venelin Dimitrov, “Fall is the ideal time to plant perennials because the cold winter months that follow are very important for dormancy. Many beautiful plants from temperate climates must experience a period of low winter temperature to initiate and accelerate flowering, which is known as vernalization. This process establishes the plant, so it starts growing earlier the next spring and produces brighter and bolder colors.” Dimitrov suggests that for most gardeners, border perennials are probably most useful in a mixed border, interplanted with low-growing shrubs that may or may not lose their foliage in winter. Mixed borders allow woody plants to add structure, height, texture and yearlong interest to the garden. out Make A Plan When determining which perennials to since 1929 the Now is Plant Time toetables g Fall Ve use, it’s important to consider the overall size of a garden, the amount of sun it gets, and the climate. To create continuity of interest, choose plants that bloom at different times during a season. Height is an important factor. Dimitrov suggests using taller plants at the FOCUS COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER • Friday, August 26, 2016 Page 19 back of a border or bed, with the lowest perennials at the front.

The experts at the Minwax Company have tips to help: • Each species of wood accepts stain differently. A dark walnut stain will look out different on pine than on cherry. Test the stain on an inconspicuous area of the wood first to see the true color. • Use a pre-stain wood conditioner to prevent streaks and blotches and ensure the wood absorbs the stain evenly. • For beautiful, even color, thoroughly stir—not shake—the can to distribute pigments that may have settled on the bottom. • If you create a custom color, measure each shade carefully and write it down so you can re-create it. • For an antique or distressed look, layer lighter and darker stain colors.

The difference between greatness & mediocrity is often how an individual views a mistake. - Nelson Boswell Happiness is not a goal; it is a by-product. - Eleanor Roosevelt Tell Them You Saw it in The Focus Page 28 FOCUS COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER • Friday, August 26, 2016 Don’t Let Your Child’s Fever Fool You (NAPS)- When your child isn’t feeling well, your main concern is to help him or her get better. However; when it come to children’s fevers, your first step should also be to determine whether or not your child actually has a fever. This can save your child from receiving unnecessary medication or even hospitalization. Fever Myth: “If your child feels warm, she must have a fever.” While he or she may feel warm, a child’s skin temperature varies with exercise, excitement, and sleep-making your hands poor thermometers. Fever Fact: Use a thermometer, so you gor, PA 18013 Little Wranglers Ranch can get an accurate temperature. Remember, the temperature for a fever depends on where you put the thermometer. A rectal temperature of 100.4 degrees or higher, an oral temperature of 100 degrees and above, and an armpit temperature of 99 degrees all mean that your child has a fever. FOCUS COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER • Friday, August 26, 2016 Page 29 Parent Education: To help educate caregivers about the nature of fevers, Pedia-Care® has partnered with father and pediatrician Dr. David Hill, author of “Dad to Dad: Parenting like a Pro,” to develop a series of videos to debunk a number of myths about kids and fevers. A Safe Treatment: PediaCare® has also developed the new Single Dose Fever Reduc-er. It’s designed to help make giving children medicine an easier and safer task.
