Versatile Viburnum
I can’t figure out why people aren’t as smitten with viburnum as I am. It is mostly an evergreen shrub, blooms from late winter to early spring and comes in over 120 species plus numerous varieties.

Recently, we had the pleasure to tour the College of Charleston’s Avery Research Center for African American History and Culture, truly a cultural gem. The Center’s mission is to collect, preserve and promote the unique history and culture of African Americans, with an emphasis on Charleston and the South Carolina Lowcountry.

ONCE AND AGAIN
Twenty years ago, Jane Jilich stood in a historic home designed by Charleston architects Albert Simons and Samuel Lapham and remade it for a Charleston family in an elegant, understated, summery style that resonated with their easy approach to living.
WELL COLLECTED
It was a once-in-a-lifetime find—an undeveloped spit of land at Garden City Beach with a magnificent 270-degree view that includes beachfront, open marshlands and the historic seaside town of Murrells Inlet.
