NHESP is responsible for the conservation and protection of hundreds of species that are not hunted, fished, trapped, or commercially harvested in the state. The Program's highest priority is protecting the 176 species of vertebrate and invertebrate animals and 259 species of native plants that are officially listed as Endangered, Threatened or of Special Concern in Massachusetts. Endangered species conservation in Massachusetts depends on you! A major source of funding for the protection of rare and endangered species comes from voluntary donations on state income tax forms.

  • Alyssum) and the Correct Name of the Goldentuft Alyssum
    ARNOLDIA VE 1 A continuation of the BULLETIN OF POPULAR INFORMATION of the Arnold Arboretum, Harvard University VOLUME 26 JUNE 17, 1966 NUMBERS 6-7 ORNAMENTAL MADWORTS (ALYSSUM) AND THE CORRECT NAME OF THE GOLDENTUFT ALYSSUM of the standard horticultural reference works list the "Madworts" as MANYa group of annuals, biennials, perennials or subshrubs in the family Cru- ciferae, which with the exception of a few species, including the goldentuft mad- wort, are not widely cultivated. The purposes of this article are twofold. First, to inform interested gardeners, horticulturists and plantsmen that this exception, with a number of cultivars, does not belong to the genus Alyssum, but because of certain critical and technical characters, should be placed in the genus Aurinia of the same family. The second goal is to emphasize that many species of the "true" .~lyssum are notable ornamentals and merit greater popularity and cul- tivation. The genus Alyssum (now containing approximately one hundred and ninety species) was described by Linnaeus in 1753 and based on A. montanum, a wide- spread European species which is cultivated to a limited extent only. However, as medicinal and ornamental garden plants the genus was known in cultivation as early as 1650. The name Alyssum is of Greek derivation : a meaning not, and lyssa alluding to madness, rage or hydrophobia. Accordingly, the names Mad- wort and Alyssum both refer to the plant’s reputation as an officinal herb. An infu- sion concocted from the leaves and flowers was reputed to have been administered as a specific antidote against madness or the bite of a rabid dog.

Miller Parks & Open Space Manager www.cpnmd.org Perennials Paprika Yarrow (Achillea millefolium ‘Paprika’) Luscious apple-red and paprika colored flowers with sulphur yellow centers appear June – September. Finely textured, gray-green foliage creates a soft background for the tall flat flower heads. A proven performer in hot, dry situations with poor soil. Flower heads can be dried. Plants grown in rich soil tend to be tall and floppy. It thrives in average to poor soil that is well-drained. Mature height 24 to 36”, spread 12 to 24”. Zone 3 Full sun; deer resistant. Max. Elev. 9,500 ft. Hyssop/Agastache (Agastache spp.) Also known as Hummingbird Mint, this plant is essential to a pollinator friendly garden. This showy, fragrant group of plants prefers well drained soils with low fertility, and deep infrequent watering. ‘Blue Fortune’ – violet blue flowers, licorice scented. ‘Sonoran Sunset’ – dark pink flowers, bubble gum scented. ‘Coronado Red’ – Crimson red flowers darken as they mature. ‘Sunset’ – bronze-orange-purple flowers. Mature height and spread 15” to 36”, depending on variety. Zone 4 Full sun; deer resistant. All varieties tend to bloom July – October. Max. Elev. 8,000 ft. Pussytoes (Antennaria dioica) Soft, gray foliage is one of the best ornamental features of this spreading ground cover. A low mat of woolly, silver-gray evergreen leaves produces short stalks with compact clusters of furry flowers. Blooms occur in early summer. The flowers resemble the toes of a cat. Male flowers are white and females are pinkish. This plant sends out runners just like strawberries.

Only a few genera have their centers of distribution in the Balkans and the endemic genus Edraianthus is one of its most prominent groups. As such, Edraianthus is an excellent model not only for studying specia- tion processes and genetic diversity but also for testing hypotheses regarding biogeography, identification and characterization of refugia, as well as post-glacial colonization and migration dynamics in SE Europe.

    *Cameron 9/21/05 9:07 AM Page 72 variety information Cool Campanula Cooling and daylength can regulate flowering of some campanula species and cultivars. By Sonali Padhye, Cathy Whitman, Erik Runkle and Art Cameron he genus campanula contains more than 300 species, many of which are of Northern origins. Campanula species are com- monly referred to as bellflowers and can add a great splash of blue, white or red to any perennial garden. TMany campanulas such as C. carpatica, C. portenschlagiana and C. poscharskyana thrive in cool temperatures and high light conditions, making them very suitable for the springs and summers in Northern Europe. Therefore, it is not surprising that in Northern Europe campanulas are extremely popular and almost a staple in any perennial garden. Several campanulas, especially many noteworthy cultivars such as C. punctata ‘Cherry Bells’ and campan- ula ‘Kent Belle’ are report- edly adaptable to high heat and humidity. A few cam- panulas, including C. rotun- difolia, are native to the United States and offer great untapped potential to gardeners and plant breed- ers looking for new plant material. Smaller-sized campanulas such as C. carpatica form charming mounds of flowers in small Long days with containers and are impor- Short days Long days supplemental light tant potted flowering crops.

  • Trichome Biomineralization and Soil Chemistry in Brassicaceae from Mediterranean Ultramafic and Calcareous Soils
    plants Article Trichome Biomineralization and Soil Chemistry in Brassicaceae from Mediterranean Ultramafic and Calcareous Soils Tyler Hopewell 1,*, Federico Selvi 2 , Hans-Jürgen Ensikat 1 and Maximilian Weigend 1 1 Nees-Institut für Biodiversität der Pflanzen, Meckenheimer Allee 170, D-53115 Bonn, Germany; [email protected] (H.-J.E.); [email protected] (M.W.) 2 Laboratori di Botanica, Dipartimento di Scienze Agrarie, Alimentari, Ambientali e Forestali, Università di Firenze, P.le Cascine 28, I-50144 Firenze, Italy; federico.selvi@unifi.it * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Trichome biomineralization is widespread in plants but detailed chemical patterns and a possible influence of soil chemistry are poorly known. We explored this issue by investigating tri- chome biomineralization in 36 species of Mediterranean Brassicaceae from ultramafic and calcareous soils. Our aims were to chemically characterize biomineralization of different taxa, including metallo- phytes, under natural conditions and to investigate whether divergent Ca, Mg, Si and P-levels in the soil are reflected in trichome biomineralization and whether the elevated heavy metal concentrations lead to their integration into the mineralized cell walls. Forty-two samples were collected in the wild while a total of 6 taxa were brought into cultivation and grown in ultramafic, calcareous and standard potting soils in order to investigate an effect of soil composition on biomineralization. The sampling included numerous known hyperaccumulators of Ni. EDX microanalysis showed CaCO3 to be the dominant biomineral, often associated with considerable proportions of Mg—independent of soil type and wild versus cultivated samples. Across 6 of the 9 genera studied, trichome tips were Citation: Hopewell, T.; Selvi, F.; mineralized with calcium phosphate, in Bornmuellera emarginata the P to Ca-ratio was close to that Ensikat, H.-J.; Weigend, M.
