Roozengaarde's Bulb Planting Guide
15867 Beaver Marsh Road Mount Vernon, WA 98273 Frequently 360-424-8531 or 866-4TULIPS Asked www.Tulips.com / [email protected] Questions WILL BULBS GROW ANYWHERE? Yes, bulbs will grow in many different climates. Warmer climates are more challenging and may require pre-cooling each fall prior to plant- ing. The year we ship your bulbs, we do any necessary pre-cooling here on our farm prior to shipment—your bulbs will be ready to plant when you receive them! DO BULBS NEED TO BE WATERED? Yes, if Mother Nature does not take care of it for you, then water during dry spells. Be sure not to oversoak the planting area. Water just enough so that it absorbs quickly. Water after planting, during growth, and even after topping if the soil is dry. WHAT IS THE BEST TYPE OF SOIL AND FERTILIZER? Soil needs to provide adequate drainage and oxygen for the bulbs. We recommend using a slow release fertilizer specifically designed for flower bulbs - usually a N - P - K formula. DO BULBS NEED TO BE DUG IN THE SUMMER? We recommend digging tulip bulbs each year after the foliage has died down naturally. They are more prone to disease and rot if left in the ground through the summer months. Other bulbs like daffodils can typically be dug on a 3-5 year schedule. If you experience diminished results in the spring, you should dig your bulbs that summer. WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO STORE MY BULBS IF I DIG THEM? After digging, make sure to dry bulbs thoroughly.

Bulb Dormancy in Vitro—Fritillaria Meleagris: Initiation, Release and Physiological Parameters
plants Review Bulb Dormancy In Vitro—Fritillaria meleagris: Initiation, Release and Physiological Parameters Marija Marković*, Milana TrifunovićMomˇcilov , Branka Uzelac , Sladana¯ Jevremović and Angelina Subotić Department of Plant Physiology, Institute for Biological Research “Siniša Stanković“—NationalInstitute of the Republic of Serbia, University of Belgrade, Bulevar Despota Stefana 142, 11060 Belgrade, Serbia; [email protected] (M.T.M.); [email protected] (B.U.); [email protected] (S.J.); [email protected] (A.S.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: In ornamental geophytes, conventional vegetative propagation is not economically feasible due to very slow development and ineffective methods. It can take several years until a new plant is formed and commercial profitability is achieved. Therefore, micropropagation techniques have been developed to increase the multiplication rate and thus shorten the multiplication and regeneration period. The majority of these techniques rely on the formation of new bulbs and their sprouting. Dormancy is one of the main limiting factors to speed up multiplication in vitro. Bulbous species have a period of bulb dormancy which enables them to survive unfavorable natural conditions. Bulbs grown in vitro also exhibit dormancy, which has to be overcome in order to allow sprouting of bulbs in the next vegetation period. During the period of dormancy, numerous physiological processes occur, many of which have not been elucidated yet. Understanding the process of dormancy will allow us to speed up and improve breeding of geophytes and thereby achieve economic profitability, which is very important for horticulture. This review focuses on recent findings in the area of Citation: Marković,M.; Momˇcilov, bulb dormancy initiation and release in fritillaries, with particular emphasis on the effect of plant M.T.; Uzelac, B.; Jevremović,S.; growth regulators and low-temperature pretreatment on dormancy release in relation to induction of Subotić,A.

Guide to the Flora of the Carolinas, Virginia, and Georgia, Working Draft of 17 March 2004 -- LILIACEAE
Guide to the Flora of the Carolinas, Virginia, and Georgia, Working Draft of 17 March 2004 -- LILIACEAE LILIACEAE de Jussieu 1789 (Lily Family) (also see AGAVACEAE, ALLIACEAE, ALSTROEMERIACEAE, AMARYLLIDACEAE, ASPARAGACEAE, COLCHICACEAE, HEMEROCALLIDACEAE, HOSTACEAE, HYACINTHACEAE, HYPOXIDACEAE, MELANTHIACEAE, NARTHECIACEAE, RUSCACEAE, SMILACACEAE, THEMIDACEAE, TOFIELDIACEAE) As here interpreted narrowly, the Liliaceae constitutes about 11 genera and 550 species, of the Northern Hemisphere. There has been much recent investigation and re-interpretation of evidence regarding the upper-level taxonomy of the Liliales, with strong suggestions that the broad Liliaceae recognized by Cronquist (1981) is artificial and polyphyletic. Cronquist (1993) himself concurs, at least to a degree: "we still await a comprehensive reorganization of the lilies into several families more comparable to other recognized families of angiosperms." Dahlgren & Clifford (1982) and Dahlgren, Clifford, & Yeo (1985) synthesized an early phase in the modern revolution of monocot taxonomy. Since then, additional research, especially molecular (Duvall et al. 1993, Chase et al. 1993, Bogler & Simpson 1995, and many others), has strongly validated the general lines (and many details) of Dahlgren's arrangement. The most recent synthesis (Kubitzki 1998a) is followed as the basis for familial and generic taxonomy of the lilies and their relatives (see summary below). References: Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (1998, 2003); Tamura in Kubitzki (1998a). Our “liliaceous” genera (members of orders placed in the Lilianae) are therefore divided as shown below, largely following Kubitzki (1998a) and some more recent molecular analyses. ALISMATALES TOFIELDIACEAE: Pleea, Tofieldia. LILIALES ALSTROEMERIACEAE: Alstroemeria COLCHICACEAE: Colchicum, Uvularia. LILIACEAE: Clintonia, Erythronium, Lilium, Medeola, Prosartes, Streptopus, Tricyrtis, Tulipa. MELANTHIACEAE: Amianthium, Anticlea, Chamaelirium, Helonias, Melanthium, Schoenocaulon, Stenanthium, Veratrum, Toxicoscordion, Trillium, Xerophyllum, Zigadenus.

O. Box 14115–336, Iran 2 Department of Horticultural Sciences, Faculty of Agriculture, Tarbiat Modares University, Tehran, Iran Received September 26, 2015; accepted March 14, 2016 Summary Five species (13 ecotypes) belonging to three subgenera of ornamental-medicinal Iranian Fritillaria were karyotypically studied, using a standard squash technique. All species were diploid (2n=2x=24) having mean chromosome lengths of 15.8 µm (15.2–16.7 µm). Their satellites varied in number (1–3 pairs) and in size (1.2–2.6 µm), mostly being located on long arms. Four chromosome types (“m”, “sm”, “st”, “T”) formed 10 dif- ferent karyotype formulas: “T” type chromosome is reported for the first time in most species (with the exception of S4, Fritillaria. reuteri Boissi). ANOVA confirmed significant intra- and inter-specific chromosomal variation across the Iranian Fritillaria species. Twelve different methods were used to assess the degree of karyotype asymmetry. Among those, one qualitative parameter (Stebbins classification) and eight quantitative (CVTL, DI, A1 & A2, AI, A, AsK%, MCA, CVCI) parameters verified that S2 (F. gibbosa Boiss.) and S5 (F. zagrica Stapf.) species represented the most asymmetrical and symmetrical karyotypes, respectively. Key words Fritillaria, Cytogenetics, New chromosome type, Karyotype, Iran. The name Fritillaria is likely based on the word “fri- Fritillaria subgenus is morphologically classified into six tullus” which means a cup in Latin (Ulug et al.

Southwest Turkey A Greentours Trip Report 21st March – 2nd April 2010 Led by Başak Gardner Day 1 Journey to Antalya 21.03.10 I met the group at the airport and directly drove to the hotel. It was around 10 pm. Day 2 Journey to Ibradı 22.03.10 With good news from the meteorology the tour started. Alpine Swifts were flying around and Yellow-vented Bulbuls were singing from the roof as we were having our breakfast by the pool. A very short visit to the bank to change and get some money gave a chance for the group to take some pictures of the castle walls and gate. We even did some botanizing. The walls of the very old houses in the old town were almost covered by Cymbalaria longipes. We were on the road before 10 am and our first stop was by a graveyard where Pyrus serikensis, which is an endangered endemic pear tree, was in full bloom. But the main plant we were looking for was a bit over, however we managed to find some fresh reticulately-patterned Iris masia. Along with these were some Muscari comosum, Anemone coronaria and a single plant of Gladiolus italicus. Val spotted our first butterfly an Eastern Festoon and both Large White and Orange Tip were also seen as well as Danford’s Lizard. We made another stop both to have lunch and to look for some Ophrys. Along an old track by the picnic site we encountered many Ophrys mammosa spikes in good flower. We had a good lunch with some Turkish tea our driver prepared for us among the Bellis annua flowers.

Narcissus Juncifolius
Report under the Article 17 of the Habitats Directive European Environment Period 2007-2012 Agency European Topic Centre on Biological Diversity Narcissus juncifolius Annex V Priority No Species group Vascular plants Regions Alpine, Atlantic, Mediterranean Narcissus juncifolius is endemic to France, occuring in Alpine, Atlantic and Mediterranean regions. The taxonomy of this taxon is not clear. According to the information on the IUCN red list website the synonym species Narcissus assoanus ssp. praelongus is present in Spain. However, Spain did not report the species. In the IUCN red list the species is assessed as Least Concern (LC) with stable population trend. It is not assessed in the French red list (2012). The overall conclusion in the Alpine region is "Unfavorable Inadequate" due to a negative population trend. It occurs with a population of 1000-5000 individuals. The main distribution area of Narcissus juncifolius is in the Mediterranean region of France. However, the population is "Unknown", but assessed as "Favorable". As in the previous report, the conservation status is "Favorable" in all components. In the French Atlantic region is assessed as "Favorable" in all components (reported for the first time). The species occurs with a population of 10000-50000 individuals Main threats (mainly low rank) are grazing, cultivation, urbanisation, modification of cultural practices and mining. No changes in overall conservation status between 2001-06 and 2007-12 reports in Alpine and Mediterranean region. The species was not reported
