2004 Cultivar Trials of Bedding Plants
2004 Cultivar Trials of Bedding Plants Barbara A. Laschkewitsch, M.S. Trial Garden Coordinator Ronald C. Smith, Ph.D. Extension Horticulturist – Department of Plant Sciences Introduction The Plant Sciences Department at NDSU conducted performance trials on over 300 annual bedding plants during the 2004 growing season. The main research garden is located in Fargo, on the west edge of campus. Trial gardens are also located at the research extension centers in Dickinson and Williston, ND. Official entries (usually 150-200) are grown at all three locations while an additional 150-200 cultivars are also grown at the Fargo site. The display gardens are for educational and research purposes. They are open to the public throughout the growing season and guided tours are available upon request. The trial garden is an official display garden of both All-America Selections and the American Hemerocallis Society. Currently, there are over 1100 cultivars of daylilies in the collection with plans for more. The majority of the daylily cultivars are considered historic (pre-1970). There are also over 300 miscellaneous perennials and ornamental grasses in the garden. An extensive iris collection, courtesy of the Art Jensen family, was also added in 2003. New Fargo trial gardens are currently being constructed on the corner of 18th street and 12th avenue north. The move into the new beds should be completed by fall 2005. Culture Plants were seeded in the horticulture and forestry greenhouses on the NDSU campus from January through April, 2004. When at the proper stage, seedlings were transplanted into cell packs containing a peat-based growing medium. -

Starting with the employment of the present curator of the Botanical Collections in 2003, a DNA lab has been established in order to ac- count for the recent developments in systematic re search, which largely employs DNA sequencing and other genetic and molecular techniques to de scribe and validate taxa in many areas of systematic and taxonomic research. This review focuses on the activities of the DNA lab, which understand itself not only as a facility to assist in systematic and taxonomic research, but also actively engages in presenting cutting edge scien- ce and lab tutorials to the public.

The species peony collection is also growing and we hope Iris Double Lament Lilium Friso to have sufficient to offer more varieties soon. Things never stand still and one of the consequences of not doing Chelsea is that we no longer need some of the large show plants so this year we are able to offer the evergreen Dianella tasmanica (page 12) with its extraordinary blue berries. Some of our plants did not enjoy the wonderful summer as much as we did but the Schizostylis were an eye opener. They are stream side plants from southern Africa so we think of them as wanting dampish soils but forget that The youngest grandson - but Eucomis pole-evansii is winning! they experience seasonal rainfall and very hot summers.

It is at first sight related to Massonia jasminiflora Burch. ex Baker, M. wittebergensis U.Müll.-Doblies & D.Müll.-Doblies and M. saniensis Wetschnig, Mart.-Azorín & M.Pinter, but differs in vegetative and floral characters, as well as in its allopatric distribution.

This list cancels all previous lists . We hope that you will find something of interest. We grow alpines & rock garden plants (including some dwarf shrubs, acid loving plants, and ferns) as well as various other interesting plants from time to time. We grow only p lants that we like and find interesting, and tend not to be constrained by categories! All of our plants are grown on the nursery site, sometimes in small numbers per variety. As a result the stock situation can change suddenly. Some listed items can sell out quickly and unlisted varieties often become available throughout the year. Most of our plants are offered in 6cm to 9cm pots as appropriate for the needs of the plant. All plants are offered from the nursery subject to their remaining available . Plan ts can be ordered in advance for collection at the nursery. A few days notice of collection would be helpful, so that we can collect the plants together, especially if the order is large. There is no need to send payment with the order. Payment can be made on collection. We do not supply plants by mail order. Please ask if you cannot find what you are looking for. -

Patterns of flammability across the vascular plant phylogeny, with special emphasis on the genus Dracophyllum A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of philosophy at Lincoln University by Xinglei Cui Lincoln University 2020 Abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of philosophy. Abstract Patterns of flammability across the vascular plant phylogeny, with special emphasis on the genus Dracophyllum by Xinglei Cui Fire has been part of the environment for the entire history of terrestrial plants and is a common disturbance agent in many ecosystems across the world. Fire has a significant role in influencing the structure, pattern and function of many ecosystems. Plant flammability, which is the ability of a plant to burn and sustain a flame, is an important driver of fire in terrestrial ecosystems and thus has a fundamental role in ecosystem dynamics and species evolution. However, the factors that have influenced the evolution of flammability remain unclear.
