  • Root System Attributes of 12 Juvenile Indigenous Early Colonising Shrub and Tree Species with Potential for Mitigating Erosion in New Zealand M
    Marden et al. New Zealand Journal of Forestry Science (2018) 48:11 New Zealand Journal of https://doi.org/10.1186/s40490-018-0115-9 Forestry Science RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Root system attributes of 12 juvenile indigenous early colonising shrub and tree species with potential for mitigating erosion in New Zealand M. Marden1*, S. Lambie2 and D. Rowan3 Abstract Background: Restoring erosion-prone land with indigenous species, whether by managed reforestation (planting) or by passive natural reversion, is reliant on knowing which species mix is likely to provide the quickest and most effective mitigation against shallow landslides. In turn, this requires knowledge of differences in growth metrics among plant species, particularly during their formative years. This study presents data on the root development and architecture of 12 of New Zealand’s commonest early colonising indigenous shrub and tree species. These data are crucial to the development of guidelines and policy for land use conversion and future land management options where unmitigated erosion is of increasing concern. Methods: In a plot-based field trial, the growth performance of Coprosma robusta (karamū), Plagianthus regius (ribbonwood), Sophora tetraptera (kōwhai), Pittosporum eugenioides (lemonwood), Pittosporum tenuifolium (kōhūhū), Hoheria populnea (lacebark), Myrsine australis (māpou), Pseudopanax arboreus (fivefinger), Cordyline australis (cabbage tree), Knightia excelsa (rewarewa), Leptospermum scoparium (mānuka), and Coriaria arborea (tutu) was measured annually over five consecutive years. Results: Eleven species developed a heart-shaped root system and Cordyline australis, a tap-rooted system. By year 5, the root/shoot ratio ranged between 0.24 and 0.44, > 99.5% of the total root mass and root length of all species was confined to within 0.5 m of the ground surface and > 73% within 1 radial metre of the root bole.

  • Windcliff Plants Nursery
    Virtual Hortlandia 2020 Windcliff Plants Nursery www.danieljhinkley.com This week Joanne Fuller interviewed Dan Hinkley by email and edited the conversation for this article. Dan, what are some of your favorite plants that are available from the nursery right now? Hydrangea species collected from afar are one of my loves; mostly trying to figure out their identities as the taxonomy is quite muddled. Right now, we have Hydrangea serratifolia HCM 98166. It is a self-clinging climbing hydrangea from South Chile that has glossy green foliage and large white corymbs. It will take sun or shade with evenly moist soil. Hardy Begonia species are another that I am smitten by. A proven one available now is Begonia baviensis DJHV 13034. Here at Windcliff, it has been successfully cultivated outside for numerous years. It has bristly red stems, hairy leaves and large white flowers. It is best cultivated in partial shade and provided with some overstory protection. In my mind, all species of Polygonatum, Disporum, Disporopsis and Maianthemum are worth pursuing. Disporum longistylum ‘Lift Off’ is a Windcliff selection that is available right now. It has noticeably fatter stems, in spring rising to four feet carrying evergreen foliage and clusters of yellow flowers. I am a generalist however, so there are very few plants that I cannot get excited about-- except Echinaceas. I totally cannot get excited about Echinaceas. How did you get started? Being a nurseryman has been in my blood for as long as I can remember. I propagated plants in junior high school. Heronswood was the realization of my need to do it larger.

  • New Zealand Plants in Australian Gardens Stuart Read
    New Zealand Plants in Australian Gardens Stuart Read Abstract: (11.6.2013): Raised in a large New Zealand garden full of native trees, plant lover Stuart Read was perhaps hard-wired to notice kiwi plants in Australian gardens. Over time he's pieced together a pattern of waves of fashion in their planting and popularity, reflecting scientific and horticultural expansionism, commercial and familial networks and connections across the Tasman. Stuart will examine a range of NZ plants found in old and younger Australian gardens, try to tease out some of the means by which they got here and why they remain popular. No cabbage, This constellation of asterisks Slaps and rustles Its tough tatters In the brisk breeze; Whispers of times past And ancient histories (Barbara Mitcalfe’s poem, ‘Ti Kouka’ (cabbage tree) catches well the distinctive skyline profile of this ubiquitous New Zealand export (in Simpson, 2000, 213) Introduction / overview New Zealand gardens have been introduced to and cultivated in Australian gardens from early in their ‘discovery’, trade and exchanges between the two colonies. Australian and other explorers, botanists, nurserymen, New Zealand settlers and others searched New Zealand’s coasts and bush, bringing plants into cultivation, export and commerce from early in the settlement’s colonization. New Zealand plants have had their ‘vogue’ periods, including as: A) - Economic plants (various timbers, kauri gum for shellacs and jewellery; flax for fibre, rope, cloth; greens for scurvy; poroporo for the contraceptive ‘the pill’); B) - Exotic ornamental imports into Australian gardens and beyond to English and European conservatories (and some warmer, southern) gardens and parks; C) - Depicted or carved as subjects of botanical and other artworks, commercial commodities.

  • Pittosporum Tenuifolium Hybrids & Cultivars
    RHS Plant Assessments Pittosporum tenuifolium hybrids & cultivars Diana M Miller Former Keeper of the RHS Herbarium, Wisley Supplementary to RHS Plant Trials and Awards Number 1 · July 2006 www.rhs.org.uk Pittosporum tenuifolium in the wild and cultivation The Woody Plant Committee, which is responsible for judging nursery exhibits and individual plants of hardy woody trees and shrubs at RHS Shows, held a special meeting on 25 November 2003 looking at the cultivars and hybrids of Pittosporum tenuifolium. The committee assembled cut material representing almost every cultivar available in Britain, contributed by committee members as well as a number of nurseries, gardens and individuals. The committee were very fortunate that Graham Hutchins of County Park Nursery, who specialises in New Zealand plants, was able to attend. He has studied Pittosporum cultivars and has been able to sort out some of the confusion of plants and their names in cultivation in this country. He described the history and characteristics of the cultivars displayed, many of which have been introduced by him as selections from plants raised from seed collected in New Zealand or from plants on his nursery. Many cultivars previously assigned to P. tenuifolium are now thought to be hybrids with other species because of the flower structure, and the hairiness of stems and leaves. After the meeting the material was photographed, and samples taken to augment the RHS Herbarium with correctly named specimens. The remainder were displayed for the public during the RHS London Show. Pittosporum tenuifolium In its native New Zealand, where it is known by the Maori names kohuhu or kohukohu, Pittosporum tenuifolium is an evergreen tree reaching to about 10m or so in height with almost black branches.

  • Plants Resistant Or Susceptible to Armillaria Mellea, the Oak Root Fungus
    Plants Resistant or Susceptible to Armillaria mellea, The Oak Root Fungus Robert D. Raabe Department of Environmental Science and Management University of California , Berkeley Armillaria mellea is a common disease producing fungus found in much of California . It commonly occurs naturally in roots of oaks but does not damage them unless they are weakened by other factors. When oaks are cut down, the fungus moves through the dead wood more rapidly than through living wood and can exist in old roots for many years. It also does this in roots of other infected trees. Infection takes place by roots of susceptible plants coming in contact with roots in which the fungus is active. Some plants are naturally susceptible to being invaded by the fungus. Many plants are resistant to the fungus and though the fungus may infect them, little damage occurs. Such plants, however, if they are weakened in any way may become susceptible and the fungus may kill them. The plants listed here are divided into three groups. Those listed as resistant are rarely damaged by the fungus. Those listed as moderately resistant frequently become infected but rarely are killed by the fungus. Those listed as susceptible are severely infected and usually are killed by the fungus. The fungus is variable in its ability to infect plants and to damage them. Thus in some areas where the fungus occurs, more plant species may be killed than in areas where other strains of the fungus occur. The list is composed of two parts. In Part A, the plants were tested in two ways.
