In these crazy days and months, it’s reassuring to know that at least some things are, well, ‘sort of’ the same: the ever-popular Naturescapes Photography Contest and Exhibition is hanging at the The Walkers’ Gallery at the San Marcos Activity Center now that the building has reopened. That said, it will only be up for two more weeks. Visitors have until Dec. 4 to see it in person. Prints will also be available for purchase in time for gift-giving season. 11/29/2020 05:00 AM

Colorful storm brewing in the spring garden
There has been a storm brewing in the Eastern United States and it is one that will prove to beautify Central Texas landscapes for years to come. The Mountain Horticultural Crops Research Station in Mills River, N.C. are already horticultural heroes of sorts through their breeding. Proven Winners, through their production and marketing, are now bringing the landscape the Double Take Storm flowering quinces with the most shocking blooms you ever imagined. Flowering quinces have a long history in Central Texas and these Double Take selections. Scarlet Storm, Peach Storm, Pink Storm and Orange Storm are perfect for fall or spring planting. They are all double flowered and will cause you to first think camellia. 11/29/2020 05:00 AM
