  • 'Ivory Silk' Japanese Tree Lilac
    Fact Sheet ST-611 October 1994 Syringa reticulata ‘Ivory Silk’ ‘Ivory Silk’ Japanese Tree Lilac1 Edward F. Gilman and Dennis G. Watson2 INTRODUCTION Although a Lilac, this member of the species is quite different in appearance than those with which gardeners are more familiar (Fig. 1). Its upright habit varies from symmetrical to irregular but is more consistent than the species. Cultivars including ‘Ivory Silk’ and ‘Summer Snow’ could be used instead of the species due to the more consistent habit and more flowers. ‘Ivory Silk’ grows well only in USDA hardiness zones 3 through six (perhaps into 7) and has an oval or pyramidal form when young but spreads to a rounded shape as it grows older. This is a very large shrub or small tree, reaching a height of about 20 to 30 feet with a 15-foot-spread. The huge clusters of creamy white flowers, borne in early summer for about two weeks, are the main ornamental feature but lack the fragrance of the spring-blooming Lilacs -- this Lilac’s fragrance is more suggestive of Privet. GENERAL INFORMATION Scientific name: Syringa reticulata ‘Ivory Silk’ Pronunciation: sih-RING-guh reh-tick-yoo-LAY-tuh Common name(s): ‘Ivory Silk’ Japanese Tree Lilac Family: Oleaceae Figure 1.

NHESP is responsible for the conservation and protection of hundreds of species that are not hunted, fished, trapped, or commercially harvested in the state. The Program's highest priority is protecting the 176 species of vertebrate and invertebrate animals and 259 species of native plants that are officially listed as Endangered, Threatened or of Special Concern in Massachusetts. Endangered species conservation in Massachusetts depends on you! A major source of funding for the protection of rare and endangered species comes from voluntary donations on state income tax forms.

This document has been submitted by Canada, on behalf of Namibia and Canada as joint leads for the Standing Committee on the issue of Annotations.* Background 2. At the 17th meeting, (CoP17; Johannesburg, 2016) the Conference of the Parties adopted Decision 16.162 (Rev. CoP17) which directs the Standing Committee to re-establish the working group on annotations, in close collaboration with the Animals and Plants Committees. At its 68th meeting (Johannesburg, 2016), the Standing Committee agreed that Canada and Namibia would lead on the issue of annotations. 4. After discussion with the Chair of the Standing Committee in February 2017 and consultation between Canada and Namibia, it was agreed to engage members of the previous Standing Committee Annotations Working Group in advance of the 69th meeting of the Standing Committee (November 2017; SC69), to continue discussions relating to the work included in the working group terms of reference contained in Decision 16.162 (Rev. CoP17). In April 2017, in response to concerns raised by the Secretariat in advance of CoP17 regarding a lack of regional diversity in the working group in its discussions during the CoP16/CoP17 intersessional period, the Chair of the CITES Plants Committee confirmed that ten members or alternate members of the Plants Committee had expressed interest in participating in the Standing Committee’s work on annotations.

Our results indicate this group has a woody habit, simple leaves, heteromorphic mericarps with lateral wings. fruits with bottle- shaped or bulging epidermal cells which have thickened and cutinized outer wall, regular vittae (one in furrow and two in commissure) and irregular vittae (short, dwarf, or branching and anatosmosing), and dispersed druse crystals. However, lateral winged mericarps, bottle-shaped epidermal cells, and branching and anatosmosing vittae are peculiar in the tribe Heteromorpheae of Apioideae sub family. Although many features share with other early-diverging groups of Apiaceae, including Annesorhiza clade, Saniculoideae sensu lato, Azorelloideae, Mackinlayoideae, as well as with Araliaceae.

Ring characteristics of mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla K.) plantation trees grown in Taiwan were explored. Significant differences in average ring width (RW) and ring density (RD) occurred among three tree-diameter classes and three radial stages of ring numbers. RW in the radial direction decreased from the pith outward to the bark and followed a distinctive three-stage variation pattern (juvenile, transition, and mature zones). RD in the radial direction increased slowly from the pith outward to the bark. Wider tree rings and lower density are associated with juvenile wood close to the pith, whereas narrower tree rings and higher density are typical for mature wood outward toward the bark. RD in overtopped trees was higher than that in dominant trees. However, RW in dominant trees was wider than that in intermediate and overtopped trees. Earlywood density, latewood density, maximum density, and minimum density were the most important factors determining overall RD. There was a weak relationship between RW and RD, indicating that it is unlikely for growth rates of mahogany plantation trees to have a significant impact on wood density.

  • Crapemyrtle Bark Scale Acanthococcus (=Eriococcus) Lagerstroemiae
    Crapemyrtle Bark Scale Acanthococcus (=Eriococcus) lagerstroemiae Jim Robbins, Univ. of Ark. CES, Bugwood.org, #5521505 The crapemyrtle bark scale (Acanthococcus (=Eriococcus) lagerstroemiae) is in the family Eriococcidae (or Acanthococcidae, as the taxonomy of this family is still being debated). This group is in the superfamily Coccoidea (scale insects) and the order Hemiptera (true bugs). The primary host in North America, crapemyrtle, Lagerstroemia spp., are deciduous flowering trees popular in ornamental landscapes. They are top-sellers in the nursery trade, with the annual wholesale value estimated to be $66 million in 2014. Based on urban tree inventories of several major cities in the southeastern U.S., crapemyrtle are among the most common landscape trees planted in this region. Resources - Cai, X., H. Dou, M. Gu, M.
