On May 5th, over 600 garden enthusiasts visited five fabulous gardens in the Camarillo area. The Garden Tour included musicians, artists from the Pastel Society, boutique craft vendors, refreshments (beautifully managed by volunteers from the National Charity League), and a well-curated raffle.

We’d like to thank the owners of the five magnificent gardens — The Hardy Garden, The Hipp Family Garden, The Kuehnel Garden, The Naumann Garden, and Rancho Santa Clara del Norte.

We are grateful to Las Posas Berry Farms, Nothing Bundt Cakes, and Old New York Deli & Bakery for donating delicious refreshments.

We are especially thankful for the volunteer committee who worked year-round to make this event a success: Chair Carol Weaver and members Pat Distad, Cameron Draine, Sue Murphy, Susan Naumann, Komali Nunna, Martha Poulos, Linda Ramelli, Kathy Trembley, and Ruff Smith.

All proceeds from the event—$32,000—directly support our most vulnerable neighbors: parents, grandparents, children, and friends. This support provides care, comfort, counseling, and education to those facing a life-limiting illness or grieving the loss of a loved one—all without charge.

The Gardens of Cape May Tour

Saturday, June 15, 2024 | 12-4pm

Rain date: sunday, june 16, this tour is self-guided..

Properties on Tour June 15, 2024

The clemans residence 609 seagrove ave, cape may point.

Begin at the Clemans’ sweeping grounds by entering through the spacious, light-filled gallery, featuring the private collection of Dave Clemans’ own oil paintings, many of which were inspired by the gardens and grounds. As you exit the gallery, pass a trellis of antique roses, as you wander down the brick pathway toward the pond which features blooming waterlilies and a dramatic Hakuro Nishiki willow overlooking the water. Delight in the perfume of more roses along the terrace as you make your way toward the Japanese-styled garden toward the end of the property. Before you exit, be  sure to peak into the sweet Starlight Cottage playhouse, created for the Clemans’ own grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Brick paths meander among hostas, lariope, skimmia, nandina and boxwood.  A cryptomeria, or Japanese Temple tree, stands at the front corner of the property, as do three specimen “Harry Lauder’s Walking Sticks,” with their gnarled, twisted branches.

In the side yard, a fishpond and splashing fountain are focal points, along with a seating area and sundial. Vines grow over windows and pergolas in true “picturesque” fashion. A box garden at the rear contains herbs, daisies and rudbeckia.

The Greater Cape May Historical Society Memucan Hughes Colonial House 653 1/2 Washington St.

he Greater Cape May Historical Society, steward of the Memucan Hughes Colonial House (circa 1730), is restoring the garden with authentic plants used for teas, cooking, and medicine to “cure the miseries.” The garden was researched and designed by the Garden Club of Cape May and among other flowers features yarrow, which contains flavonoids (plant-based chemicals to help improve digestion); chamomile, for chest colds, sore throat, anxiety, inflammation and abscesses; sage, a natural antibiotic, bactericidal, and antiseptic used for wound healing; and angelica “Wild Celery,” named “Herb of the Angels” after the archangel Michael, who supposedly visited a monk to inform him that this botanical could help cure the bubonic plague. Garden club members will be available to answer questions. The Colonial House will be open and decorated for spring.

The Emlen Physick Estate 1048 Washington Street, Cape May

  Tour five different gardens on the grounds of Cape May’s only Victorian house museum, the 1879 Emlen Physick Estate.

OVAL GARDEN: 700 colorful annuals of multi-colored snapdragons, marigolds, white vinca and red cardinal salvia flower for Summer. HERB GARDEN: Ornamental and culinary herbs thrive throughout the Spring, Summer and Fall seasons. FRED AND SARITA KUHNER MEMORIAL SHADE GARDEN: Enjoy a refreshing retreat on a hot summer’s day among the fountain, hydrangeas, hostas, lilies of the valley, ferns, rhododendrons and holly trees. ELVIRA TURANO MEMORIAL GARDEN: Featuring a fountain and benches that beckon guests to enjoy a respite among ferns, hollyhocks, hellebores and two fig trees. POLLINATOR GARDEN: Made up of a collection of native plants designed to create a habitat for butterflies. The intention of this garden is to showcase plants that people can use in their own garden to attract and support butterflies.

The Todaro-Franceschi Residence 514 Elmira Street, Cape May

A kaleidoscope of blooming color from Spring till frost, the front and rear cottage gardens were created in 2005 to support wildlife. Comprised of various host plants and nectar sources—both annuals and perennials—visiting bees, butterflies, and hummers are many, as are numerous other beneficial insects and of course birds ! In 2020 we added a small pond, which is visited by toads, birds, rabbits, and even the occasional possum. A rain garden was created in 2021, with a number of native plants to support the environment. The gardens are pesticide- free, wildlife certified and are also listed in the national Monarch way-station registry.   

The Viguers Residence 501 Broad Street, Cape May

This garden located at the corner of Bank and Broad Street keeps within the historical tradition of Cape May. The original owner of the home (Mr. F. Boerner ) was a gardener and the landscape designer/caretaker for the Physic Estate located just blocks away. The success of this garden can be attributed to the on going love of flowers. The gardening season starts with daffodils, tulips, and Siberian iris followed by a variety of asiatic lilies, heirloom roses, and mophead hydrangeas. In the fall you will find wine colored garden mum’s planted along the cypress fence line. The cypress fence was hand made by the late Howard Viguers. The garden also features a fish pond. The pond, which is a former hot tub, hosts gold fish and a variety of aquatic plants which include water lilies. Take special note to the container plantings on the porch. You will find phalaenopsis orchids, a collection of begonias, and other house plants which enjoy their time on the porch all summer long.

Pima County Master Gardener 23rd Annual Home Garden Tour

April 6, 2024.

The Pima County Master Gardeners are making plans for their upcoming Annual Home Garden Tour on April 6, 2024, from 9 am to 3 pm. This is the 23rd year that Master Gardeners have been proudly showcasing their own beautiful and diverse gardens for inspiration and education. This year the five gardens are in the Catalina Foothills and Central Tucson. The Demonstration Gardens at the Cooperative Extension will also be open, including special exhibits from the Desert Museum, Tucson Audubon Society, and the Southwest Arizona Bee Association. 

2024 FEATURED HOME GARDENS

Tomatoes ‘R’ Us

This property was purchased for the potential of growing vegetables and edibles. The homeowner's vision has created an expanded, productive, and beautiful 1,000-square-foot, in-ground vegetable garden covered with 40% shade cloth and in-ground irrigation. Come and learn how and why this edible garden is so successful.

Serendipity: Garden Design and Evolution

The homeowners of this garden have enjoyed growing plants that are beautiful, produce fruit, provide habitats for animals, help control erosion, and are successful in our harsh environment. This garden began 30 years ago and you will enjoy experiencing its evolution.

Citrus in the Southwest

Beginning with an empty canvas, the love of picking fruit to eat or cook with, and sharing with family and friends brought the homeowners to plant 18 citrus trees. This collection consists of Ponderosa Lemon, Finger Lime and Kumquat only to name a few. For pops of color, there are also geraniums and roses along with a few varieties of peppers. Be sure to see this exciting collection.

Keep it Simple

This garden was created in 2014 to go with the contemporary style of the home. They removed the Cat’s Claw vine on the back fence to reveal the view. Most of the yard is low maintenance yet very stylish and includes raised beds for growing herbs, veggies, and fragrant, colorful flowers.

Sonoran Desert Show

This garden is a beautiful example of the principles of Xeriscape! Preserving the natural native zone on the periphery allows the animals to traverse undisturbed while the homeowners enjoy watching them. The transitional area is populated with native and desert-adapted trees and native plants that benefit from a bit of shade. Adjacent to the house is the oasis zone where there are plants that are Sonoran Desert natives as well as desert-adapted plants that require more frequent irrigation. Outdoor living spaces have been added to enjoy the wonderful views of the Catalinas, Rincons, and the city lights at night.

Extension Demonstration Garden & Special Guests

Pima County Master Gardeners Gardens are located at 4210 N Campbell Avenue Tucson. There are 14 beautiful and diverse gardens for you to tour and learn from. This year will include special guests from the Desert Museum, Tucson Audubon Society, and the Southern Arizona Beekeeping Association. This expanded event will surely excite and educate all of those who attend.

Opera Scotland

Carmen 2023 scottish opera, read more about the opera carmen.

A departure for this new production was that it was sung in English.  Last time this was done with a full scale staging was before the arrival of supertitles.  These are now applied as a matter of routine, even when the performance is sung in English.  It is quite helpful for audiences, and does not seem to encourage sloppy diction on the part of singers. The translation by Christopher Cowell was fluent and generally excellent - a great improvement on some we have heard in the past.

The opera is traditionally performed in one of two versions.  The only text prepared by Bizet is the opéra-comique form, with spoken dialogue.  To give it international exposure, where non-French singers might struggle with the speech, recitatatives were prepared by Ernest Guiraud, initially for Vienna, and it was this grand opera format that generally held the stage until quite recently, when the dialogue version has made a long overdue comeback.

The director John Fulljames made an interesting decision to ditch both versions.  A new dialogue scheme was introduced, with a succession of flashback scenes in which José was interrogated by an 'Investigator', played by the actor Carmen Pieraccini.  This generally worked quite well - she created a convincing character, and the tenor Alok Kumar was the only singer required to learn significant amounts of new dialogue and to act it out.  They remained on stage while all the other activities took place. One advantage of this scheme was perhaps that the other singers did not have to learn or rehearse the usual pages of dialogue. 

The  production was seen well into the run - the Sunday matinee in Edinburgh was the twelfth of the fifteen performances, and it ran as well as that would suggest.  There were no weak links among the soloists, and chorus and orchestra were on excellent form.

The production concept was an update to the 1970s, when the appalling Franco regime was on its last legs.  This allowed the Investigator to use a projector to cover the set with appropriate photographic material.  But otherwise the update didn't seem to be of any great importance - certainly no harm done to this masterpiece, but nothing earth-shattering.  There was no attempt to create the usual atmospheric inn for the second act or mountain pass for the third - it was all fairly abstract.

The excellent Lithuanian Carmen, Justina Gringyté, sang the role in French in the last run of the previous production.  Re-studying it in English must have been an interesting experience for a non-native speaker, even for a singer now fluent in the language.  As before, she was a thoroughly convincing actor, and this was a very different reading from the one she gave back in 2015.

Hye-Youn Lee is now a firm favourite with Scottish Opera's audiences.  Perhaps Micaëla is a less interesting character than her two Puccini roles in the autumn, but she gave a lovely performance of her solo in the third act.  She returns to the company next year for Violetta, whic is really something for us all to look forward to.

Phillip Rhodes has worked more with Opera North than in Scotland, but his last appearance as Ford was excellent and he made an effective appearance as Escamillo.  His Toreador aria delivered on a rotating table was reminiscent of Sergei Leiferkus in the old Graham Vick production thirty years ago.  The tenor Alok Kumar has sung José in a number of stagings, espcially in the USA, and seemed very comfortable in what must have been a very different approach to the part.  The four Scottish Opera Emerging Artists all did well - the 'Smugglers' Quintet' sequence went very well.  The Moralès and Zuniga also made an unusually strong impact as characters. 

Conductor Dane Lam made a positive impression in 2017 with Traviata - not an easy work with which to make a debut.  His control of this performance was generally excellent, particularly in the rousing sections.

The whole enterprise was received with huge enthusiasm by the crowded audience.  One serious reservation has to be mentioned however.  While it may just be acceptable to use amplification for sequences of spoken dialogue, it was very difficult to accept its employment throughout.  The orchestra was always loud, even the supposedly quiet sequences, and the big ensembles were overwhelming.  This meant that it was all a bit exhausting to listen to.

The 37 best things to do in D.C. this weekend and next week

Celebrate Pride Month at festivals, parades and parties, or check out outdoor movies, concerts and dance parties.

Pride Month arrives with parades, festivals, block parties, concerts, beers and even a yappy hour. The Fiesta Asia street festival, which was rained out in mid-May, gets a second chance on Pennsylvania Avenue. There are a wide variety of events happening this weekend: opera outdoors at the Lincoln Memorial, movies outdoors at the Kennedy Center and people in sundresses outdoors in Columbia Heights to mark Wonderland’s 20th annual Sundress Fest. Dance parties celebrate Beyoncé, Stevie Wonder and Lana Del Rey. Sample barbecue from top pitmasters, or try dishes from a restaurant that hasn’t even opened yet.

CJM After Sunset: Deli Nights at the Capital Jewish Museum

Pickleback shots will be on hand during an after-hours party celebrating the Capital Jewish Museum’s exhibit “‘I’ll Have What She’s Having’: The Jewish Deli.” Tour the exhibition to learn about the history behind your favorite deli dishes before making your own pickling seasoning. Refreshments include soup shooters from Prescription Chicken and black and white cookies to take home from Call Your Mother, as well as a cash bar with even more food available for purchase. Watch out for gallery talks during the evening: Ted Merwin, author of “Pastrami on Rye: An Overstuffed History of the Jewish Deli,” discusses the history of cured meats and the deli as a gathering space, while Michaele Weissman, who wrote “The Rye Bread Marriage,” and “Industry Night” podcaster Nycci Nellis also share their knowledge. At 2 p.m., Nellis is recording her food-focused podcast on-site at the museum, and you can listen in free as she chats with Weissman and the team behind Beresovsky’s Deli, the recently opened Jewish deli in Navy Yard. 6 to 9 p.m. $15; 21 and older only.

Pints for a Purpose at Bluejacket

To mark Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, D.C. breweries Bluejacket and Lost Generation collaborated on a saison called Briefly Gorgeous, which gets its citrusy sweetness from yuzu and Buddha’s hand, and a tingle in the finish from a mix of red and green peppercorns. The Navy Yard brewpub hosts a fundraiser for the social justice group Chefs Stopping AAPI Hate featuring dishes from Moon Rabbit chef Kevin Tien (hot honey curry fish and chips) and Any Day Now chef Tim Ma (mapo tofu poutine). Proceeds from the food and Briefly Gorgeous will be donated to Chefs Stopping AAPI Hate. 5 p.m. Free .

Showtime’s 11th anniversary

Great music, cheap drinks, a space regulars want to come back to — that’s the formula at Showtime, and it’s why the one-room Bloomingdale bar is celebrating its 11th year in business this weekend. Join the crowds for a stellar selection of DJs, including Baby Alcatraz and Boy Howdy, dropping dusty soul, R&B and rock records, while grabbing beer-and-a-shot combos. (And hey, did you know Washington Post readers nominated Showtime as one of the best dive bars in the D.C. area ? Take a look at the list and vote for your favorite.) 4 p.m. to 2 a.m. Free .

‘Jurassic Park’ at the Kennedy Center

The Kennedy Center’s Extraordinary Cinema series is back for another summer, with movies shown outdoors on the Reach’s video wall. Arrive early to find a spot in the grass for “Jurassic Park.” Picnics, blankets and low chairs are welcome. Films begin around 8:30 p.m. Free; no registration required .

Lana Del Rey dance party at DC9

The songwriter might be known for her glitzy melancholia, but that doesn’t mean fans don’t get down to it. Dance to hits like “Summertime Sadness” and “West Coast,” plus songs off her Grammy-nominated 2023 album “Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd,” at DC9’s “Lust for Lana” night. Coquette attire is encouraged. 8 p.m. $15-$20.

Wonder-Full at the Black Cat

DJ Spinna is an icon in underground hip-hop and deep house, spinning in clubs around the world. Beyond his remixes and rare tracks, he is best known for Wonder-Full, a traveling dance party celebrating the genius of Stevie Wonder, from the days of Little Stevie Wonder through “Songs in the Key of Life,” “Hotter Than July” and “Jungle Fever.” For fans of funk and soul, it doesn’t get better than this — and you won’t be able to stop singing along. 9 p.m. $25-$30 .
