  • Marion Garden Rose Garden
    Marion Garden Rose Garden The Rose Garden is a work in constant change to demonstrate how to grow and maintain a variety of roses that are suitable for home gardens in the Willamette Valley. Selection of plants has been based on suitability for landscape use, resistance to disease, repeat blooming, and availability to the home gardener. If we find that a rose bush has a lot of disease problems or does not bloom well it is removed. The visitor will find mostly hybrid teas but also floribundas, grandifloras, shrub roses and an English (Austin) rose. There is also one upright climbing rose named ‘Antique’. Two clematis vines (Viola and Asso) have been planted on either side of the climbing rose trellis. Clematis are a good compliment to large climbing roses and add interest and color to the garden. All the rose bushes have ID tags which include the name of the rose, type, any awards it has received, name of the hybridizer, and the year the rose was introduced. There are a couple of roses that do not have ID tags because they were donated and names were not known. They are good disease resistant plants with a good bloom habit so are used for cuttings for rose propagation workshops. There is also a Lonicera fragrantissima (winter honeysuckle, January jasmine, or Chinese honeysuckle) growing on the northwest corner of the rose garden. It has fragrant white flowers in January and February. It was there when this garden was started and is a nice shrub for the home garden. It is pruned in the spring after it finishes blooming.

Also, the paper provides information about the hayfields floral richness, a great scientific value for Romania and Europe. The study of the flora was carried out in several stages: 2005-2008, 2013, 2017-2018. In the studied area, 397 taxa were identified, distributed in 82 families with therapeutic potential, represented by 164 medical taxa, 37 of them being in the European Pharmacopoeia 8.5. The study reveals that most plants contain: volatile oils (13.41%), tannins (12.19%), flavonoids (9.75%), mucilages (8.53%) etc. This plants can be used in the treatment of various human disorders: disorders of the digestive system, respiratory system, skin disorders, muscular and skeletal systems, genitourinary system, in gynaecological disorders, cardiovascular, and central nervous sistem disorders. In the study plants protected by law at European and national level were identified: Echium maculatum, Cephalaria radiata, Crambe tataria, Narcissus poeticus ssp. radiiflorus, Salvia nutans, Iris aphylla, Orchis morio, Orchis tridentata, Adonis vernalis, Dictamnus albus, Hammarbya paludosa etc. Keywords: Fărăgău, medicinal plants, human disease, Mureş County 1.

  • Variation in the Grass Pea (Lathyrus Sa Tivus L.' and Wild Species
    Euphytica 33 (1984) 549-559 VARIATION IN THE GRASS PEA (LATHYRUS SA TIVUS L.' AND WILD SPECIES M. T. JACKSON and A. G. YUNUS1 Department of Plant Biology, University of Birmingham, Bl5 2Tr, England Received 21 September 1983 .DEX WORDS Lathyrus sativus,grass pea, wild species,variation, multivariate analyses. SUMMARY Forty-nine accessionsof Lathyrus sativuswere studied for morphological variation. Data were analysed using Principal Components Analysis and Cluster Analysis. The variation in 14 speciesof SectionLathyrus was also evaluated in order to ascertainaffinities betweenL. sativusand other species. L. sativus is a highly variable species,and there is a clear distinction betweenthe blue-flowered fonns from south-west Asia, Ethiopia and the Indian subcontinent, and the white and white and blue flowered fonns with white seedswhich have a more westerly distribution. Differences in vegetative parts may be due to selectionfor forage types. L. sativus appears to be closely related to L. cicera and L. gorgoni, and this relationship needs further investigation. INTRODUCTION The genus Lathyrus is large with 187 speciesand subspeciesrecognised (ALLKIN et al., 1983).Species are found in the Old World and the New World, but clearly there are centres of diversity for Old World speciesin Asia Minor and the Mediterranean region (ZEVEN& DE WET,1982). A number of speciesare usedas animal fodder plants including L. hirsutusand L. palustris, and some are valued as ornamentals, especially L. odoratus,the sweetpea. Only one species,L. sativus,the grasspea, khesari or chick- ling pea is widely cultivated as a food crop, and this pulse is a dependable cropper in drought conditions (SMARTT,1976).

  • Diseases of Specific Florist Crops Geranium (Pelargonium Hortorum)
    Diseases of Specific Florist Crops Keeping florist crops free of disease requires constant care and planning. Prevention is the basis of freedom from disease and should be an integral part of the general cultural program. The symptoms of the diseases of major florist crops are described individually by crop in a series of fact sheets. Geranium (Pelargonium hortorum) • Bacterial blight (Xanthomonas campestris pv. pelargonii): Tiny (1/16 in. diameter) round brown leaf spots, often surrounded by a chlorotic zone. Spots form when bacteria have been splashed onto the leaf surface. Subsequent systemic invasion of the plant leads to the development of a yellow or tan wedge-shaped area at the leaf edge and then to wilting of the leaf. Further progression of the disease may lead to brown stem cankers at nodes, brown to black vascular discoloration inside the stem, and tip dieback or wilting of all or part of the plant. Roots usually remain healthy-looking. Disease symptoms develop most readily under warm (spring) greenhouse temperatures. Spread is rapid during the handling and overhead irrigation associated with propagation. Only geraniums are susceptible to bacterial blight. P. hortorum (zonal) and P. peltatum (ivy) both show symptoms; P. domesticum (Martha Washington or Regal) is less likely to show symptoms. Hardy Geranium species may also be a source of infection; these will show leaf spot but not wilt symptoms. Infested plants should be destroyed; there are no chemical controls. Although culture- indexing procedures should have eliminated this disease from modern geranium production, it remains all too common in the industry today, causing large financial losses to geranium growers.
