Joanne and Will Hartshorn, of Frontier Drive, have been recognized as Selection of the Month for January by The Garden Club at Palm Coast. They moved to Palm Coast in 2005.
Even with the cold weather, this front yard is planted with a variety of evergreen shrubs and palms. Two multiple trunk clumps of European fan palm and ball juniper topiaries flank the front of the house. A stately Canary Island or pineapple palm is prominent in the island bed near the street. The majority of the plantings are small bushes of Indian hawthorn, jackfrost ligustrum, holly, parson's juniper and boxwood. A New Zealand tea tree with its needle-like leaves is presently blooming with small crimson flowers, as is the bottlebrush beside the driveway.

The search is on for Florida’s Outstanding Senior Volunteers
Know a senior who gives his or her time to help the community? Here's your chance to give them a little recognition, by nominating them through the Salute to Senior Service program.
Sponsored by Home Instead Inc., Salute to Senior Service recognizes the contributions of adults age 65 and older who give at least 15 hours of their time per month to their favorite causes.
“Seniors have so much to give,” said Mary Beth Johnson, president of the Home Instead Senior Care office serving Flagler and Putnam Counties. “Senior volunteerism not only benefits others but also helps seniors stay active and socially engaged in their communities – important elements of healthy aging.”
Members of the community are asked to nominate and vote from now until March 1, at salutetoseniorservice.com. State winners will be determined by popular vote. A panel of senior care experts will then select a national Salute to Senior Service winner.
