University Hills Nursery UNIVERSITY HILLS NURSERY Claude W . Davis, Proprietor 470 Delgado Drive Baton Rouge, Louisiana, 70808 Amaryllis La. Native Irises Daylili es Crinums 1966-67 SEASON The following plants are offered subject to stock being unsold on receipt of the order. With the exception of imported Amaryllis bulbs all plants are guaranteed to be true to name and to arrive at destination in good condition. Prices quoted are f.o.b. shipping point. TERMS: Cash with order. POSTAGE: Repeated advances in parcel post rates have made it necessary to request payment for postage as follows: Order less than $5.00 value . 50¢ postage Value of $5.00 to $10.00 . 10% of value Value of more than $10.00 . $1.00 postage AMARYLLIS Amaryllis are one of the most spectacular and beautiful of the spring flowering bulbs. They are universally grown throughout the United States. In the Deep South they may be grown and flowered out of doors. In all parts of •he country they are suc­ cessfully grown indoors in pots for late winter and early spring flowers. Since they are perennials the purchase of an amaryllis bulb represents a long time investment in beauty and pleasure. The Ludwig Strain of named Dutch hybrids will be received from Holland in Novem­ ber. Since the Ludwig varieties will be shipped from Holland in the middle of October the final order to these exporters must leave Baton Rouge on October 1st. Every season a number of customers are disappointed in receiving the varieties which they wanted because they waited too late to order, so please order early this season. Amaryllis bulbs make nice Christmas presents to friends and relatives who are flower lovers. Send your gift card along with shipping instructions to this nursery. At the proper time your card will be mailed along with the bulbs directly to the person for whom the gift is intended. Red leaf spot or red fire, caused by the fungus Stagonospo'Y'a curtisii, has become wide-spread throughout the country and it seems to be present on many of the imported bulbs. To eliminate the bulb-borne phase of this disease it is recommended that dormant bulbs be soaked for two hours in a solution of one ounce of commercial formaldehyde to about llh gallons of water. The severity of the disease on the foliage may be lessened by spraying the plants at weekly intervals with neutral copper, "Captan" or "Fermate" at the rate of 1 ounce to 2 gallons of water. Dutch hybrid Amaryllis are of a full, fiat, rounded form. Usually there are two scapes per bulb and three to four 8" flowers on each scape. 3 NO GUARANTEE OF VARIETIES. The growers and exporters in Holland are considered to be reliable, but occasionally a few bulbs are found to be incorrectly labeled. The exporters do not guarantee their bulbs as to variety, and this obligation cannot be assumed by the retail dealer who has never seen the bulbs in flower. Orders will be scrupulously filled in accordance with the labels on the bulbs when they are received, but this nursery makes no guarantee that the bulbs were correctly labeled in Holland.

  • 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.

  • A Comparative Karyomorphological Analysis of Crinum Asiaticum L. and Crinum Latifolium L
    ISSN (Online): 2349 -1183; ISSN (Print): 2349 -9265 TROPICAL PLANT RESEARCH 7(1): 51–54, 2020 The Journal of the Society for Tropical Plant Research DOI: 10.22271/tpr.2020.v7.i1.008 Research article A comparative karyomorphological analysis of Crinum asiaticum L. and Crinum latifolium L. from Paschim Medinipur district of West Bengal, India Anushree Dolai and Asis Kumar Nandi* Cytology and Molecular laboratory, Department of Botany and Forestry, Vidyasagar University, Midnapore, West Bengal, India *Corresponding Author: [email protected] [Accepted: 28 February 2020] Abstract: Crinum asiaticum and C. latifolium are two ornamental plant species with medicinal importance. These species have a host of biomolecules of pharmaceutical uses. The chromosomal study is a very basic one in characterizing the genetic material of a species. Earlier reports on such studies have shown both of 22 and 24 to represent the diploid number of chromosomes in the somatic cell of Crinum sp. The present study confirmed the 2n number as 22 for both of the species. However, these two species differ in respect of different parameters. Chromosome types are 10 metacentric and 12 submetacentric in C. asiaticum, while 10 metacentric, 6 submetacentric and 6 subterminal chromosomes in C. latifolium. Considerable variations are also evident in the total chromosomal length of the haploid set, symmetric index, degree of karyotype asymmetry, mean centromeric asymmetry, coefficient of variation of chromosome length, coefficient of variation of the centromeric index as well as the asymmetric index. These variations provide the chromosomal identity of these two species and also the nature of the relationship in them. Keywords: Chromosome study - Karyomorphology - Ideogram - Crinum species.

  • Complete Chloroplast Genomes Shed Light on Phylogenetic
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Complete chloroplast genomes shed light on phylogenetic relationships, divergence time, and biogeography of Allioideae (Amaryllidaceae) Ju Namgung1,4, Hoang Dang Khoa Do1,2,4, Changkyun Kim1, Hyeok Jae Choi3 & Joo‑Hwan Kim1* Allioideae includes economically important bulb crops such as garlic, onion, leeks, and some ornamental plants in Amaryllidaceae. Here, we reported the complete chloroplast genome (cpDNA) sequences of 17 species of Allioideae, fve of Amaryllidoideae, and one of Agapanthoideae. These cpDNA sequences represent 80 protein‑coding, 30 tRNA, and four rRNA genes, and range from 151,808 to 159,998 bp in length. Loss and pseudogenization of multiple genes (i.e., rps2, infA, and rpl22) appear to have occurred multiple times during the evolution of Alloideae. Additionally, eight mutation hotspots, including rps15-ycf1, rps16-trnQ-UUG, petG-trnW-CCA , psbA upstream, rpl32- trnL-UAG , ycf1, rpl22, matK, and ndhF, were identifed in the studied Allium species. Additionally, we present the frst phylogenomic analysis among the four tribes of Allioideae based on 74 cpDNA coding regions of 21 species of Allioideae, fve species of Amaryllidoideae, one species of Agapanthoideae, and fve species representing selected members of Asparagales. Our molecular phylogenomic results strongly support the monophyly of Allioideae, which is sister to Amaryllioideae. Within Allioideae, Tulbaghieae was sister to Gilliesieae‑Leucocoryneae whereas Allieae was sister to the clade of Tulbaghieae‑ Gilliesieae‑Leucocoryneae. Molecular dating analyses revealed the crown age of Allioideae in the Eocene (40.1 mya) followed by diferentiation of Allieae in the early Miocene (21.3 mya). The split of Gilliesieae from Leucocoryneae was estimated at 16.5 mya.

  • Sell Cut Flowers from Perennial Summer-Flowering Bulbs
    SELL CUT FLOWERS FROM PERENNIAL SUMMER-FLOWERING BULBS Andy Hankins Extension Specialist-Alternative Agriculture, Virginia State University Reviewed by Chris Mullins, Virginia State University 2018 Commercial producers of field-grown flower cut flowers generally have a wide selection of crops to sell in April, May and June. Many species of annual and especially perennial cut flowers bloom during these three months. Many flower crops are sensitive to day length. Crops that bloom during long days such as larkspur, yarrow, peonies and gypsophila cannot be made to bloom after the summer equinox on June 21st. Other crops such as snapdragons may be day length neutral but they are adversely affected by the very warm days and nights of mid-summer. It is much more challenging for Virginia cut flower growers to have a diverse selection of flower crops for marketing from July to September when day length is getting shorter and day temperatures are getting hotter. Quite a few growers offer the same inventory of sunflowers, zinnias, celosia and gladiolas during the middle of the summer because everything else has come and gone. A group of plants that may offer new opportunities for sales of cut flowers during mid-summer are summer-flowering bulbs. Many of these summer-flowering bulbs are tropical plants that have only become available in the United States during the last few years. The first question that growers should ask about any tropical plant recommended for field planting is, " Will this species be winter hardy in Virginia?" Many of the bulb species described in this article are not very winter hardy.

Acanthus ebracteatus Vahl. (a) Habit, (b) bud, and (c) flower. 328 Mangrove Guidebook for Southeast Asia Part 2: DESCRIPTIONS – Other ground-dwelling herbs ACANTHACEAE 52 Acanthus ebracteatus Vahl. Synonyms : Unknown. Vernacular name(s) : Sea Holly (E), Jeruju (hitam) (Mal.), Jeruju (Ind.), Ô rô (Viet.), Trohjiekcragn pkapor sar, Trohjiekcragn slekweng (Camb.), Ngueak plaamo dok muang (Thai) Description : Acanthus ebracteatus resembles Acanthus ilicifolius (see next page), but all parts are smaller. Flowers measure 2-3 cm and are (usually) white; the fruit is shorter than 2.0 cm; seeds measure 5-7 mm. Flowers have only one main enveloping leaflet, as the secondary ones are usually rapidly shed. The species described by Rumphius as the male specimen of Acanthus ilicifolius was later identified by Merrill as Acanthus ebracteatus Vahl. Some authors regard Acanthus ebracteatus, Acanthus ilicifolius and Acanthus volubilis as one highly variable species (e.g. Heyne, 1950). Note that in Acanthus young leaves or leaves on the ends of branches may be unarmed (i.e. without spines), while older specimens may be armed. Ecology : Where this species occurs together with Acanthus ilicifolius the two seem distinct in the characters used in the descriptions, but they are often confused. Flowering usually occurs in June (in Indonesia). True mangrove species. Distribution : From India to tropical Australia, Southeast Asia and the west Pacific islands (e.g. Solomon Islands).

  • Class Monocotyledonae
    ACORUS/ACORACEAE 1077 CLASS MONOCOTYLEDONAE Plants usually herbaceous—in other words, lacking regular secondary thickening (except Palmaceae, Smilacaceae, most Agavaceae, and a few Poaceae); seedlings usually with 1 seed leaf or cotyledon; stems or branches elongating by apical growth and also by growth of basal por- tion of internodes; leaves when present alternate, whorled, basal, or rarely opposite, elongating by basal growth (readily seen on spring-flowering bulbs whose leaf-tips have been frozen back); leaf blades usually with parallel or concentrically curved veins, these unbranched or with inconspicuous, short, transverse connectives (leaves net-veined or with prominent midrib and spreading side-veins parallel with each other in Alismataceae, Araceae, Smilacaceae, Marantaceae, and some Orchidaceae); perianth with dissimilar inner and outer whorls (petals and sepals), or all parts about alike (tepals), the parianth parts separate or united, commonly in 3s, less often in 2s, rarely in 5s, or perianth of scales or bristles, or entirely absent. AWorldwide, the Monocotyledonae is a group composed of ca. 55,800 species in 2,652 genera arranged in 84 families (Mabberley 1997); 25 of these families occur in nc TX. The monocots appear to be a well-supported monophyletic group derived from within the monosulcate Magnoliidae group of dicots (Chase et al. 1993; Duvall et al. 1993; Qiu et al. 1993). From the cla- distic standpoint, the dicots are therefore paraphyletic and thus inappropriate for formal recog- nition (see explantion and Fig. 41 in Apendix 6). Within the monocots, Acorus appears to be the sister group to all other monocots, with the Alismataceae (and Potamogeton) being the next most basal group (Duvall et al.
