Papal garden to open to public, David Clark profile, more

Hi all! Busy busy…a short one this week.

• Western New York Horticulturalist David Clark the the subject of a nice write up in the Buffalo News recently.

• The latest Upstate Gardeners’ Journal is out, and fabulous, and you can read it online!

• Let’s hear it for this cool Pope! Yay Pope! From the Huffington Post: “Pope Francis Opens Castel Gandolfo Barberini Gardens To The Public.” Check out the slide show—it’s a beautiful garden. 

• New type of plant intelligence? According to this article, the villainous (according to many) Berberis vulgaris has a complex survival strategy that its cousin Mahonia aquifolium lacks. Maybe this is part of the reason the barberry is so…successful? Competitive? Invasive?

• More of our favorite weed/street art, just for fun. (Sara Tambascio, especially for you.) Cheers!
