Rubus idaeus ‘Caroline’ (Everbearing Raspberry) is a fall-fruit big cultivar producing high yields of large, highly flavored, red raspberries which are perfect for eating or preserves.
Raspberry plants can fruit on different types of canes, and these are categorized into primocane and floricane. Both primocane (first year) fruiting and floricane (second year) fruiting raspberries have both primocanes and floricanes growing from the plant after the first year.
Primocane fruiting raspberries, commonly called Everbearing raspberries, produce flowers and fruit on first year canes. Primocane varieties will produce a moderate crop in June and a much larger crop from late August until frost.

Echinacea Sombrero Salsa Red displays single rows of drooping, deep orange-red ray petals around a sombrero-shaped, orange-brown cone. The lightly fragrant flowers attract butterflies! They provide long lasting color in the garden.

It is also known by African Arrowroot, Arrowroot, Canna, Edible Canna, and Wild Canna Lily among a few other names.
The rhizomes of cannas are rich in starch, and have many uses in agriculture. All of the plant material has commercial value, rhizomes for starch (consumption by humans and livestock), stems and foliage for animal fodder, young shoots as a vegetable, and young seeds as an addition to tortillas.
Other interesting uses include the hard black seeds of the Arrowroot having been used in the 19th century as bullets when ammunition was limited. The seeds are also used for making jewelry and musical instruments such as rattles.

Glencairn Gardens is located in Rock Hill, South Carolina. It was started by David & Hazel Bigger in their backyard. It is now an 11 acre paradise located in the heart of Rock Hill. It is beautifully landscaped with walkways, lawns, fountains, as well as various plants and flowers. Mrs. Bigger deeded the garden to the city of Rock Hill after her husband’s passing in 1958.
The Garden was the original inspiration for Rock Hill’s annual Come See Me Festival. The festival has developed into a ten day event which is held each spring at Glencairn Gardens and various other sites throughout Rock Hill.
The Garden boasts a variety of blooms year round. They vary from Dogwoods and Wisteria to Azaleas and Camellias along with a variety of hardwood trees to be adorned by visitors strolling throughout the Gardens.
The peak blooming season is from late March to early April. With such a small window to observe and admire the various spectacular colors & the many different types of flowers in bloom — you wouldn’t want to miss visiting it. Don’t worry if you can’t make it during peak season, there is always something special to see year round. Some of which are the Crepe Myrtles and Day Lilies during the Summer, the changing of leave’s colors in Autumn. And lest you forget, there’s the daffodils and camellias, and the smell of honeysuckle to entice your senses throughout the winter.
Within Glencairn Gardens is also a Veterans Garden. The American Legion Post 34 and the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 2889 partnered with the City of Rock Hill to create this hard that honors men and women from the past, present, and future who serve in the armed forces of the United States of America.
