1 Hopkins County Horticulture Newsletter Winter 2018 Erika Wood, County Extension Agent for Horticulture Hopkins County Cooperative Extension Service 75 Cornwall Drive Madisonville, KY (270) Fax: (270) hopkins.ca.uky.edu Wonderful Witchhazel Common Witchhazel (Hamamelis virginiana) is a large shrub or small tree native to Kentucky that is in the Hamamelidaceae family. Its name originates from the old English word to bend. It makes a wonderful landscape plant due to its beautiful autumn color and blooms. The plant produces beautiful fall foliage with bright yellow leaves (photo 1). It also produces fragrant blooms in the fall and winter. The flowers are yellow with four, ribbon-like petals (photo 2). The fruit is a capsule that will open and shoot its seeds several feet away, which is where the other common name, Snapping Hazel, originates. The thin bark of witchhazel is a light brown color and will peel off to show a reddish purple inner bark. Common Witchhazel grows best in moist soils with a slightly acidic to neutral ph. It can be grown in either full sun or shade and has no serious insect or disease problems. Bark from Witchhazel has been used as an astringent for sores and bruises when mixed with water and alcohol. Tannins have also been found in the bark and have been used in eye medications and in the treatment of hemorrhoids. Witchhazel extract has even been used in after-shave lotion. Shown above is photo 1 - Witchhazel. Shown below is photo 2 - Witchhazel in bloom. Interesting Fact: European species of Hamamelis were once used as divining rods to search for water.

2 Norfolk Island Pine Trees If you ve ever gone to a garden center or the garden department of a big box store around the holidays, then you ve probably seen an adorable potted tree known as a Norfolk Island Pine (Araucaria heterophylla). This festive, little tree is often used as a miniature Christmas tree in many homes but also makes a great houseplant all year round. I myself kept a lovely Norfolk Island Pine Tree as my Christmas tree for two years before it made its home in the extension office conference room (photo 1). Despite its name, this tree is actually not a pine tree, but belongs to the Araucariaceae family, an ancient group of conifers. Norfolk Island Pine Trees are native to the South Pacific where they can grow up to 200 feet tall! I was fortunate to see a lovely specimen in my travels to New Zealand (photo 2). Most likely though, your little Christmas tree will only grow four to six feet tall as a houseplant. Because the Norfolk Island Pine is considered a subtropical tree, it will not tolerate temperatures lower than 45 F, so be sure to bring your tree indoors during the winter months if you are keeping it outside during the summer. If you plan on keeping your pine tree as a houseplant be sure to put it near a window that receives bright, indirect light and water well when the soil begins to dry out. This plant is a pretty slow grower, so don t be sad if you only see it grow a few inches during the year. As for fertilizer, these plants really don t need to be fertilized very often. Fertilize your tree with a houseplant fertilizer once a month when it is actively growing. Repot every few years. If you plan on using it as a Christmas tree, keep in mind that the branches will not hold large, heavy ornaments. Use light weight ornaments and small lights and remove as soon as the holidays are over to prevent any injury. If you treat your little tree well, then it will reward you as a beautiful houseplant and may even be reused as a lovely Christmas tree for next year!

Mid-season and late-maturing varieties need to be planted 15 to 30 days earlier than latest date. Nearly all of the fall-planted garden crops will require irrigation during dry periods. Additional insect controls may be necessary for these tender young plants. *If producing your own transplants, begin two to 12 weeks earlier than these listed dates.

4 One of the many festive decorations inside our homes this holiday season is Mistletoe. But what exactly is Mistletoe? Mistletoe, whose scientific name is Phoradendron, means tree thief, which is very fitting considering that Mistletoe is a parasitic plant. It is found throughout the United States and can commonly be seen growing as round, dense bunches in the branches of trees. Mistletoe is parasitic in that it will steal water and nutrients from its host tree, which may cause harm if the infection is severe. Mistletoe can still photosynthesize, but it penetrates the bark of the tree with root-like structures and infects the tree. Mistletoe Mistletoe is a perennial plant that produces fleshy green leaves arranged oppositely on the stem. White berries are formed in the fall and are eaten by birds, who will pass on the seeds and spread to other branches. Mistletoe seeds are poisonous to humans and other animals and should not be consumed. If you find Mistletoe on your trees and would like to get rid of it, cut out infected branches as soon as you see the Mistletoe and prune the branch back beyond the original point 6 to 12 inches so that all roots inside the branch are removed. It is important to have all the roots removed because any remaining tissue can regenerate back into a whole plant. Plate it up! Kentucky Proud Recipe for the Winter Season!!
