La Rosa’s Garden Plant detectives BY FRANK LA ROSA Curiosity and a true passion for living creatures and plants go a long way in creating a Garden. My gardening friends and I always check out the “green trash cans” to make sure that no viable plants have been tossed out. After all, no living plant should be left behind—it deserves a life too. It is really amazing what can be discovered right there on top of the “green trash” Frank La Rosa or sitting on the curb. I’ve found orchids, palms, and lots of other plants. Recently, a friend found a very rare and lovely Justicia of the Acanthaceae family. Where? In the trash! It turns out after much research that it is a Justicia secunda Vahl from South America and the West Indies. It is so rare that there aren’t good photos of it in the books or on the internet. But Kew does cite it. I discovered its name by going around with a cutting to the plant experts at various nurseries. This is a great experience in itself because I get to talk with those who truly known their stuff, and they are always helpful and friendly. And, they say that they also love to go around finding and resurrecting abused and derelict plants. Justicias include the Shrimp Plant and other tropical plants of the same genus. Outdoors they need warmth, sun, loamy soil, and regular watering to get them established. Indoors, they are terrific house plants with a cast of beauty that makes us forget wintry moods.

The beauty of Justicias comes from the green, fleshy leaves, but also from spectacular bracts that surround their very small flowers. Bracts are modified leaves near the blossoms. You’ve seen them for sure: bougainvilleas, poinsettias, and even the bract “leaves” that shield the fingerling bananas on banana trees. Of course, the most dramatically flagrant bracts are those of the Anthuriums with their brilliantly colored, enameled shields. The pencil thin column of flowers, the spadix, protrudes from the shield/bract. Both bract and spadix give Anthuriums their attractive presence to the imaginative mind. These flamboyantly colored bracts also incite imaginative insect “minds” to fertilize the flowers that reproduce the plants by seeds. So, Justicias. There over 400 species. Just take a look in FLORA and you will see what I mean. They are tropically beautiful. Justicia brandegeeana aka Shrimp Plant is best known and most grown here. Justicia aurea has tufts of golden yellow “flowers”. It grows well in our zone. Justicia carnea has bright red “flowers”. I’m sure you have noticed that I put “flowers” in quotation marks because we are talking about bracts here. What would life be without a passion for plants, or for anything else? An ethos of caring for living things (with patience and work) to resurrect abused plants from the trash will sometimes lead to a rare plant winner. So, it’s best to ignore the critical observers as we look for good, viable plants, in the so-called “green” trash.

Santaluz Club members take the reigns from developer DMB The Santaluz Club is embarking on a new era of leadership as developer DMB prepares to transition all club governance, operations and financial responsibility to the membership. But the prospect of managing a world-class $43 million facility doesn’t faze board member Robert Proulx. “For the past four years, we’ve methodically worked with DMB to transition the club from a developer-run operation to a member-run organization,” said Proulx. “Each year, we’ve gotten more members involved with governance and financial issues through the board and committees. With the help of DMB, the group has matured and is ready to be responsible for the future of the club.” Evidence of their commitment is on the scoreboard: existing members have brought in one new golf member each week during 2011. “I have to give DMB a lot of credit for taking their time and guiding us with the transition,” continued Proulx, who noted that the original timetable for the transition was 2009. The new changeover date is Jan. 1, 2012. “It would have been a huge burden for us if they had left then, but they stuck it out for an additional three years. As a result, the club is in a position where it’s not only going to survive, but it’s going to thrive.” During the recent “Just One” membership campaign, club leadership enlisted the support of its 675-plus golf, spa and social members. As a result, over 100 friends and associates were nominated and are in discussion about potential golf, spa or social membership. The Santaluz Club showcases a private, 300-acre championship course designed by renowned architect Rees Jones. Director of Golf John McCook and Santaluz Golf Ambassador Tina Mickelson oversee an extensive array of programs and clinics, including a year-round junior golf program.
