  • Understory Plant Community Response to Season of Burn in Natural Longleaf Pine Forests
    UNDERSTORY PLANT COMMUNITY RESPONSE TO SEASON OF BURN IN NATURAL LONGLEAF PINE FORESTS John S. Kush and Ralph S. Meldahl School of Forestry, 108 M. White Smith Hall, Auburn University, AL 36849 William D. Boyer U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Southern Research Station, 520 Devall Street, Auburn, AL 36849 ABSTRACT A season of burn study· was initiated in 1973 on the EscambiaExperimental Forest, near Brewton, Alabama. All study plots were established in l4-year-old longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) stands. Treatments conSisted of biennial burns in winter, spring, and summer, plus a no-burn check. Objectives of the current study were to determine composition and structure of understory plant communities after 22 years of seasonal burning, identify changes since last sampling in 1982, arid assess the structure of the communities that stabilized under each treatment regime. There were 114 species on biennial winter~burned plots, compared to 104 on spring- and summer-burned and 84 with no burning. The woody understory biomass «1 centimeter diameter at breast height) increased with all treatments compared with 1982. Grass and legume biomass increased with winter and spring burning. Forb biomass decreased across treatments. keywords: biomass, longleaf pine, Pinus palustris, plant response, prescribed fire, south Alabama, understory. Citation: Kush, 1.S., R$. Meldahl, and W.D.

    Glass daggers cover the surface of Cnidoscolus stimulosus. Photos by Jeremy Ash. Trying to eat tread softlies It was a mistake to walk out into the field in flip flops. I wasn’t going far, so I didn’t bother with shoes or boots. I should have known that there was a nettle out there just waiting to zap me. o We try t keep the area near the house and most of the trails free of Cnidoscolus stimulosus, the plant we refer to as “stinging nettle” or “tread softlies.” Our principal control method for this nuisance native is as follows: approach the nettle warily and be-booted; grasp the stem of the nettle between the toes of your boots; and, lean back, thus breaking off the plant below ground. Repeated yankings are required to kill a plant because, below the rupture point, the taproot swells into a cigar-shaped tuber that plunges another foot into the ground. Yanked or mowed tread softlies resprout readily. If you look carefully, you may notice that defoliation By Dr. Francis Putz results in increased densities of the stinging trichomes on resprouted plants. Eventually, if you are persistent, the plants succumb. Herbicides like glyphosate Francis E. “Jack” Putz is a professor of botany also kill stinging nettles, but I found that the big poisoned plants were often at the University of Florida, Gainesville. His replaced by several small ones, perhaps germinating from buried dormant seeds. primary area of interest is in forest community Botanically our nettle is no relation to the nettle of the north, Urtica dioica.

  • Nettles, Ankle Biters, and Burning Noses Modified from Treasure Coast Natives by George Rogers
    Nettles, Ankle Biters, and Burning Noses Modified from Treasure Coast Natives By George Rogers A prominent memory from fooling around the hills of West Virginia as a kid was, “be careful about jumping down into muddy ravines.” I can still see in my mind’s eye the standard summertime ravine bottom biological community: Jewelweed (Impatiens capensis), nettles (species of Urtica and/or Laportea), and yellowjackets (or some sort of hornet with that general appearance). The yellowjackets were benign, but the nettles would sting the living beejeebers out of exposed epidermis….then you rubbed jewelweed juice on the welts in some vain hope of relief. We called it “the 15-minute itch.” Throughout most of the eastern U.S. the stingers are Laportea canadensis and Urtica dioica (and other Urtica species). Laportea has alternate leaves, Urtica distinctively has opposite leaves. Around Palm Beach and Martin counties, Urtica and Laportea are not common, but they are a little here to punish the unwary. Laportea aestuans is probably native to more tropical places, maybe making its way northward aided by Global Warming. Urtica chamaedroides (leaves opposite) is scattered around Florida. An Urtica, probably this species, inhabits the PBSC plant nursery in Palm Beach Gardens, apparently having hitchhiked on nursery plants. Given the weediness of Urtica, there would be no earth-shaking amazement in coming across additional species locally. What is astounding about Urtica and Laportea is their vengeful hairs. Plants with toxins are a dime a dozen. Plants with thorns, spines, and prickles are too. But these little stinkers smite their foes with an injection of toxin.

  • Southern Garden History Plant Lists
    Southern Plant Lists Southern Garden History Society A Joint Project With The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation September 2000 1 INTRODUCTION Plants are the major component of any garden, and it is paramount to understanding the history of gardens and gardening to know the history of plants. For those interested in the garden history of the American south, the provenance of plants in our gardens is a continuing challenge. A number of years ago the Southern Garden History Society set out to create a ‘southern plant list’ featuring the dates of introduction of plants into horticulture in the South. This proved to be a daunting task, as the date of introduction of a plant into gardens along the eastern seaboard of the Middle Atlantic States was different than the date of introduction along the Gulf Coast, or the Southern Highlands. To complicate maters, a plant native to the Mississippi River valley might be brought in to a New Orleans gardens many years before it found its way into a Virginia garden. A more logical project seemed to be to assemble a broad array plant lists, with lists from each geographic region and across the spectrum of time. The project’s purpose is to bring together in one place a base of information, a data base, if you will, that will allow those interested in old gardens to determine the plants available and popular in the different regions at certain times. This manual is the fruition of a joint undertaking between the Southern Garden History Society and the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. In choosing lists to be included, I have been rather ruthless in expecting that the lists be specific to a place and a time.
