Inquiry: When to Order Seedlings from Extension Office? To ColumbiaMagazine.com: When is the best time to order tree seedlings from the County Extension Office and what are the varieties available? What varieties are most desired by the Commonwealth of Kentucky? s/Charles Marshburn Great question: Hope we be getting answers for you soon from the Extension Office, from our own CM contributing tree expert, Billy Joe Fudge, and others. One annual spring tree planting project which is having great success. is to plant more redbuds, a promotion of Sue Stivers and the Adair County Tourism board. You can never have have enough redbuds. Our own choices are some people often fight: Fence row Cedars, copses of papaws, Trees of Heaven, locusts, for their beauty and perfume; more mainstream and needed are dogwood, black walnut, filberts, and tulip poplars. But those are only our ideas. -CM 2008-08-17 10:55:43 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
Alan Reed IDs Shoulda Been Butterfly as The Robber Fly About: Betty Sue Jasper photograph--Insects of Adair Co KY: Should have been orange butterfly ColumbiaMagazine.com "The photo is that of a Robber Fly," writes CU biology teacher Alan Reed.

Depending upon species, they stab and suck the body fluids from certain bees, wasps spiders and other insects. Doesn't sound so appetizing, but all animals have to eat. The Robber Fly is harmless to people." Thanks.
