s I sat in serenity in a canyon in the desert, I pondered the Park’s mission statement; a place of serenity celebrating the trees, shrubs, plants and birds of the Yampa Valley. It

might seem a small thing, this place of serenity, but in the ever increasing hustle-bustle and technology of today, a spot to stop and get calm and peaceful may just be what is needed.

Here at the Park there are many places to stop and slow down. Try bringing lunch and find a sunny bench, one of my favorites is next to the Reflecting Pond. The sound of water can surely soothe anyone. If you need shade, try sitting on the bench at the front of the Grove. Usually there is good people watching and activity at the Turtle sculpture. I am often jealous of folks who bring a book and crash on the Green for several hours, reading or dozing off.

As to the second half of the mission, we are always working to expand the number of species we are growing in the Park. You may not know that we are a Demonstration Garden for the Plant Select organization. This means we grow many of their plants and also are a testing ground for new plants they hope to introduce. Visit their website PlantSelect.org to find out more about this great organization.

We are also greatly supported by the Rocky Mountain Chapter of the North Amer-ican Rock Garden Society (NARGS). We have received plant donations from them for several years. We keep records of survival and vigor and report back to them. This helps us know what will survive in the Yampa Valley. We will get the chance to show off the Park and our amazing valley this June 23-27 as they are bringing 250 people here for their Annual Meeting and Conference. Details of this event are on their website at NARGS.org.

The last bit of the mission involves the birds of the Yampa Valley. We have a vital spot for many birds to come and eat and roost and nest. Anytime you close your eyes the

bird orchestra is playing. Just this morning there were a pair of Mallards on Peter’s Pond and a heron flew up the

river. Chickadees sing their happy dee-dee songs and swal-lows are staking their claims on the nesting boxes. I expect to

hear a hummingbird any day now. You owe it to yourself to

stop by and let the Serenity flow over you. See you at the Shed!

GAYLE’S NEWS FROM THE SHED Article and Photo by Gayle Lehman, Park Supervisor

FEEDING THE NEIGHBORHOOD BIRDS IN THE WINTERTIME

A generous anonymous Park volun-teer feeds the birds at two large capac-ity feeders just outside the main Park gate throughout the winter months. This involves snowshoeing down Bo-tanic Walk with a bucket of black-oil sunflower seeds twice a week!

Chickadees, both Black-capped and Mountain, Dark-eyed Juncos, North-ern Flickers, Stellar Jays and Evening Grosbeaks are just some of the birds that visit and feed all throughout the snowy months in the quiet of Emer-ald Park. They fly down from the tall cottonwoods flanking the feeders for their turn on a perch. They are messy and spill seeds and shells in the deep depression that forms under the feed-ers. There was even a Red-winged Blackbird at the feeder one sunny day in late March.

A big thank you to this Park member and volunteer for a job well done through this long winter!

WHAT’S IN THE WORKS…ast summer a new garden was created from an old, tired corner garden in cooperation with Gecko Landscaping and

our Capital Development Fund. Now named the Yin Yang Gar-den, it is an interesting and fun garden for all to enjoy. Gecko will also be sponsoring the garden for the coming season. In addition, last season the Windigo Garden was expanded with a new planter and an array of bright new plants.

Coming for the 2016 season, Kae’s Sundial Garden and a small adjacent garden will be completely renovated; a new garden will be designed and planted near Trillium House where a huge ever-green was removed during the work at Fish Creek Mobile Home Park last summer; and new long lasting benches will be installed in the amphitheater inside the Children’s Garden.

None of these projects would be possible without the generosity of the donors to our Capital Development Fund. The projects are never ending because the gardens in the Botanic Park are always evolving.

Anyone who would like to add to the Capital Development Fund can do so by filling out the information in this newsletter or calling the Park at 846-5172.

JUNIOR MASTER GARDENERS AT THE PARKBy Jo Smith

uring the summer of 2015, in collaboration with Routt County Master Gardeners, the Yampa River Botanic Park hosted four Junior Master Gardening workshops for 3rd through 5th graders.

Junior Master Gardening is a program from Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service. It is modeled after the successful Master Gardener program and offers horticultural and environmental science education through fun and creative activities. The program is committed to helping young people become good gardeners and good citizens so they can make a positive contribution to their community, school and family.

Last summer, our junior gardeners enjoyed learning about the plants and animals of YRBP. They made plant collections, dissected flowers and seeds and built terrariums, herb gardens and red worm recy-clers (vermiculture). The classes were held on Saturday mornings throughout the summer. Six Routt County Master Gardeners along with Gayle Lehman, Park Supervisor, provided instruction and in-sights into gardening in our valley. Two students, Mia McNamara and Ruth Pederson attended all four workshops and are on track to become certified Junior Master Gardeners.

The Junior Master Gardening classes will be offered again in 2016. New topics to ex-plore will include planting their own raised garden in the Children’s Garden area, in-vestigating insect life in and around a garden, keeping gardens healthy and produc-tive and harvesting a garden. Each session offers a variety of activities. Registration for the Junior Master Gardening Classes is at the CSU Routt County Extension Office, 136 6th St. Steamboat Springs, CO.

“Flowers always make people better, happier and more hopeful.”

here are various definitions of “weed”… 1) a plant growing where you don’t want it; 2) a plant with a greater will to

live; 3) a plant you haven’t learned to love yet; 4) a plant deter-mined to take over the world at any cost (invasive). One thing they all have in common, however, is …5) a plant that MUST BE REMOVED.

Since the opening of YRBP there has been a need to weed and a group of volunteers willing to take on this task. Jan Serafy, orig-inal volunteer coordinator, set Wednesday and Saturday from 9am to 11am as “social gardening” days. Social gardeners needed only bring garden gloves, a hat, water and a can-do attitude. Tools and training were provided.

In 1999, new to town, living in a condo, wanting to get my hands in the soil, I dis-covered social gardening at YRBP. Every Wednesday and Saturday morning we got to-gether to pull weeds, plant flowers, mend paths or do whatever else Gayle Lehman requested. Mostly weeding.

There was Gayle Beugler who got great satisfaction out of pulling the largest weeds (usually dandelions) she could find (more bang for the buck). There was Carol Fox who refused to pull “tweezer weeds” (small, fine grass blades protruding from a sea of ground cover). There was Emily Seaver and Barbara Siek who washed all the rocks in the Member’s Rock Garden after Denver Botanic Garden personnel had planted it. There was Carol Fox and Car-

ol Dowden who moved plugs of established Ajuga from the east berm to Kerry’s Garden in order to soften the humongous rocks of the new stairway to the top bench. There was Carol Fox who brought in City staff to maintain the City Garden on Friday af-ternoons…and treated them to beer in the parking lot when they were finished.

But there was more than that. Social gar-dening was where you discovered the real scoop behind Steamboat Today headlines; where you learned which restaurants to try in town and where to buy wine in Denver; where you learned about Karen Vail’s wild-flower hikes, which opened up the rest of the Yampa Valley and led you to move here full-time; where you were warned to “be careful about the men in this town. They’re crazy”; where you learned you didn’t have to lock your house if you were going out for the day,

but you’d better lock up your toys. Social gardening was where you made good friends, laughed and found great satisfaction caring for a beautiful, public garden.

These days social gardening happens on Wednesdays, from 9am to 11am, when staff and volunteers work side by side doing whatever Gayle wants done. For those not free on Wednesdays, volunteers are welcome anytime. Let Gayle know and she can set you to work. Just remember to bring garden gloves, hat, water and a can-do attitude! See you at the Park!

BIRDS IN THE PARK: CASSIN’S FINCHArticle and Photos by Bob Enever

hree small finches with males that have red heads and chests are seen here: the Purple Finch, an eastern bird, is rare here; the Cassin’s Finch, quite com-

mon here, has a pinkish back and a red brush-head; the House Finch, which is less common above 6,000 feet, has a round head, is a brighter orange-red color and has brown streaks on its sides. All three females are brown-striped and hard to dis-tinguish, except for the somewhat pointed head and slight brush of the Cassin’s.

The Cassin’s Finches are native to the coniferous forests of the western mountains above 6,500 feet elevation. Small flocks leave the valleys for higher elevations in May and June when trees bud and the insects become abundant. Colonies of Cas-sin’s nest in trees. Only the female incubates the eggs, but she is fed by the male, who also helps feed the chicks. Later in the summer the flocks move closer to tree line to find fresh buds and more insects.

Some Cassin’s live year-round in the mountains, some go as far north as British Columbia to breed and some winter as far south as Arizona and New and Old Mexico.

As with the Cassin’s Finch, our knowledge of the activities of many birds is sketchy. It is mostly based on observations by enthusiastic amateur birders and is slowly being consolidated by many

organizations, including Cornell University’s “Cornell Lab of Ornithology”, the Audubon Society’s “Guide to North American Birds” and in Colorado by the “Colorado Bird Atlas Partnership”, which is a collaboration of private individuals, bird groups and governmental agencies, State and Federal.

A GARDEN TO SPONSORAre you contemplating sponsoring a garden here at YRBP? Have we got a garden for you!

t has the only Pinyon Pine in the Park. The native Yucca glauca at the top is the best specimen in the Park. There are a lot of ornamen-

tal grasses, which people tend to overlook as garden plants. It is one of the biggest gardens. The wind sculpture in it was the second sculpture put in the Park, donated by Mary Ann and John Duffey. Being the highest spot in the Park, it has one of the best views.

This is the Waterwise Garden. Located in the Wind Neighborhood along the loop road to the east of The Green, it is bordered by the Sensory Gar-den to the north and the September Charm Garden to the south. It has evolved from its original concept to be more of a rock garden (this is Col-orado, people…rocks are us). The beautiful volcanic rocks are all from our local Flattop Mountains. Many of the plants are from the North American Rock Garden Society (whose annual meeting is being held in Steamboat this June).

Some of the beautiful plants in this garden include: Indian Rice Grass, Rock Jasmine, Colorado Manzanita, Pink Sandwort, Rose Valerian, Sea Holly, Coralflower, Sunflower, various Penstemons, Russian Sage, Gold-strum Black-eyed Susan and Alpine Primrose.

Waterwise gardening is an opportunity for proactive stewardship of a pre-cious natural resource. In areas affected by periodic watering restriction, landscapes that can get by with reduced irrigation, or even without irri-gation, are more attractive. Plants don’t waste water. People do. We in the dry Rocky Mountain region need to change our attitudes and habits. Sponsor and love this garden. You won’t regret it.

I
