Confederate States

The Confederate Jasmine has dark green leaves and fragrant white flower your sure to admire

The Confederate Jasmine plant grows prominently in South Carolina. In the central region and areas along the coast, the plant will grow in extravagant vines. In the Piedmont, it is less common due to seasonal differences. If the vine is growing along something stable, like a fence or a tree, it can reach lengths of nearly seven yards! Without an object to support it, the vine can grow along the ground as shrubbery that can get up to two feet in height and five feet in girth, or will become proliferating ground cover. Confederate Jasmine is highly appreciated by both hobby gardeners and professionals.

The Confederate Jasmine boasts gorgeous dark green leaves that shine as they ripen. Its flowers are white and approximately one inch in diameter. Growing in clusters, they emit a very strong, pleasant aroma. The flowers of the Confederate Jasmine plant attract many pollinating insects like bees, which leads to the production of jasmine honey, a product highly sought after in the southern United States, particularly in South Carolina. Jasmine grows at rapid speeds and can aid in filling empty spaces in a garden or encourage the presence of beneficial insects.

Outdoors, the vines of the Confederate Jasmine plant can provide many decorative touches that are easy to employ. It can be planted to grow along fences or decks to add a beautiful accent, or used to fill in bare patches in a yard where the sun may have damaged other plants. The Confederate Jasmine is extremely easy to care for in the right environment, as plenty of sunlight is its primary need. Though it does need water, it will not thrive if its soil is too wet. One option is adding leaf mold to its soil to help strengthen the structure of the plant's roots.

In order to encourage Confederate Jasmine to ascend fences or trees, you can simply tie its stems to the sturdiest part of the object you want it to grow along. Unfortunately, it cannot climb brick walls on its own, but it can grow along them if it is assisted with support systems. If you'd rather the plant grow as groundcover, simply pinch off the parts of the plant that try to grow upright. To grow extra plants, all you need is trimmings from the original plant's stems. For outdoor growing, temperatures should ideally be in the mid-50s during dark hours, and in the high 60s to low 70s during the daylight hours. Inside, the Confederate Jasmine must be exposed to the sunlight for an absolute minimum of four hours per day.

Wherever Confederate Jasmine is grown, it creates a lush, green addition to any home or landscape. Because the plant is so easy to care for, it can be an attractive source of shade for years to come. The only things you must be wary of are rabbits, which are drawn to this vine: if they aren't prevented from eating the plant, they can damage or even kill it.

CSA: The Confederate States of America - $14.99 American history is turned on its head in this bitterly satirical mockumentary from writer and director Kevin Willmott. Taking the form of a BBC documentary about slavery in America, C.S.A. traces the history of the Confederate States of America, beginning in 1863 as the Southern States turned the tide in the War of Northern Aggression when, with the help of British and French troops, they won a decisive victory at the Battle of Gettysburg. Two years later, Ulysses S. Grant surrendered to Robert E. Lee as the Confederacy emerged victorious against the United States of America. As Abraham Lincoln and many other supporters of the Abolitionist cause fled to Canada, the Northern States were gradually absorbed into the Confederacy, and the right to own slaves became the uncontested law of the land. Over the course of the next 150 years, the Confederate States of America grew to become the most powerful nation on Earth, and persevered through wars in Spain and Latin America that expanded Confederate territories, and stood tall against Japan thanks to an alliance with German leader Adolf Hitler. In the present day, the Confederate States of America remain a power to be reckoned with, despite foreign pressures to eliminate the slavery programs that are the economic backbone of the country, a long simmering "cold war" with Canada, and the ongoing conflict against the Muslim Menace. Featuring staged interviews with "noted historians," mock newsreel footage, and inside-out versions of present-day news and entertainment programming, C.S.A.: The Confederate States of America received an enthusiastic reception in its screenings at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

The Confederate and Neo-Confederate Reader $25 Most Americans hold basic misconceptions about the Confederacy, the Civil War, and the actions of subsequent neo-Confederates. For example, two thirds of Americans--including most history teachers--think the Confederate States seceded for "states' rights." This error persists because most have never read the key documents about the Confederacy. These documents have always been there. When South Carolina seceded, it published "Declaration of the Immediate Causes Which Induce and Justify the Secession of South Carolina from the Federal Union." The document actually opposes states' rights. Its authors argue that Northern states were ignoring the rights of slave owners as identified by Congress and in the Constitution. Similarly, Mississippi's "Declaration of the Immediate Causes " says, "Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery--the greatest material interest of the world." Later documents in this collection show how neo-Confederates obfuscated this truth, starting around 1890. The evidence also points to the centrality of race in neo-Confederate thought even today and to the continuing importance of neo-Confederate ideas in American political life. The 150th anniversary of secession and civil war provides a moment for all Americans to read these documents, properly set in context by award-winning sociologist and historian James W. Loewen and co-editor, Edward H. Sebesta, to put in perspective the mythology of the Old South.

Arizona Territory (Confederate States of America) $82.85 The Territory of Arizona was a territory claimed by the Confederate States of America during the American Civil War, between 1861 and 1865. It consisted of the portion of the New Mexico Territory south of the 34th parallel north, including parts of the modern states of New Mexico and Arizona. Its capital was Mesilla along the southern border. The Confederate territory overlapped, but was not identical to, the Arizona Territory created by the United States in 1863. The territory was officially declared on August 1, 1861, following the Confederate victory at the Battle of Mesilla. Confederate hold in the area was soon broken, however, after the Battle of Glorieta Pass, the defining battle of the New Mexico Campaign. In July, 1862, the government relocated to the town of El Paso, Texas, where it remained for the duration of the war. However, the territory continued to be represented in the Confederate Congress and Confederate troops continued to fight under the Arizona banner until the wars end.

Uniforms of the Confederate States Military Forces $74.88 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Uniforms of the Confederate States military forces were the uniforms used by the Confederate Army and Navy during the American Civil War, from 1861 to 1865. The uniform varied greatly due to a variety of reasons, such as location, limitations on the supply of cloth and other materials, and the cost of materials during the war.Confederate forces were often poorly supplied with uniforms, especially late in the conflict. Servicemen sometimes wore combinations of uniform pieces, also wearing captured Union uniforms, and items of personal clothing. They sometimes went without shoes altogether, and broad felt or straw hats were worn as often as kepis or naval caps. There are some controversies about some of the exact details of a few of the uniforms, since some of the records were lost or destroyed after the Civil War ended.

Confederate Outlaw $19.95 In the fall of 1865, the United States Army executed Confederate guerrilla Champ Ferguson for his role in murdering fifty-three loyal citizens of Kentucky and Tennessee during the Civil War. Long remembered as the most unforgivingand inglorious warrior of the Confederacy, Ferguson has often been dismissed by historians as a cold-blooded killer. In Confederate Outlaw: Champ Ferguson and the Civil War in Appalachia biographer Brian D. McKnight demonstrates how such a simple judgment ignores the complexity of this legendary character. In his fascinating analysis, McKnight insists that Ferguson fought the war on personal terms and with an Old Testament mentality regarding the righteousness of his cause. He believed that friends were friends and enemies were enemiesùno middle ground existed. As a result, he killed prewar comrades as well as longtime adversaries without regret, all the while knowing that he might one day face his own brother, who served as a Union scout. FergusonÆs continued popularity demonstrates that his bloody legend did not die on the gallows. Widespread rumors endured of his last-minute escape from justice, and over time, the borderland terrorist emerged as a folk hero for many southerners. Numerous authors resurrected and romanticized his story for popular audiences, and even Hollywood used FergusonÆs life to create the composite role played by Clint Eastwood in The Outlaw Josey Wales. McKnightÆs study deftly separates the myths from reality and weaves a thoughtful, captivating, and accurate portrait of the ConfederacyÆs most celebrated guerrilla. An impeccably researched biography, Confederate Outlaw offers an abundance of insight into FergusonÆs wartime motivations, actions, and tactics, and also describes borderland loyalties, guerrilla operations, and military retribution. McKnight concludes that Ferguson, and other irregular warriors operating during the Civil War, saw the conflict as far more of a personal battle than a political one.

After Lincolnas request for troops, the State of North Carolina officially severed relations with the United States on May 20, 1861. The citizens of Greensboro immediately went to work providing for their sons, brothers, and husbands serving in the army of the Confederate States of America.
