Catalogue of Woody Plants 2011 ARBORETUM WESPELAAR and garden of HERKENRODE CATALOGUE OF WOODY PLANTS 2011 Foundation Arboretum Wespelaar, Grote Baan 63, B-3150 Haacht-Wespelaar Tel. +32-16-608.641; fax +32-16-601.353; email [email protected] www.arboretumwespelaar.be Catalogue of Woody Plants Arboretum Wespelaar and garden of Herkenrode Arboretum Wespelaar vzw, a non profit organisation, was set up in 2001 to manage the botanical collections of some 19 ha of the estate of Philippe de Spoelberch in Wespelaar situated to the North of the garden of Herkenrode. Since 2005 this task is now the responsibility of Foundation Arboretum Wespelaar. The present Catalogue of Woody Plants, lists the plants growing in Herkenrode and the Arboretum Wespelaar, both of which are open to the public, from time to time, to groups on request or to members of asbl Jardins Ouverts de Belgique – Open Tuinen van België vzw. In this printed version of the catalogue, several fields have been truncated in order to reduce to one line the relevant data. The digital database is available on the website. In 2001 werd de vereniging Arboretum Wespelaar vzw opgericht met als voornaamste doelstelling de verdere uitbouw en het onderhoud van de dendrologische verzamelingen van het arboretum van Wespelaar. Dit Arboretum is gelegen op het domein van Philippe de Spoelberch net ten noorden van de tuin “Herkenrode” en is ongeveer 19 ha groot. Sedert 2005 werd deze taak overgenomen door Stichting Arboretum Wespelaar . De raad van bestuur van de vereniging heeft tot doel gesteld het Arboretum op regelmatige tijdstippen open te stellen voor een geïnteresseerd publiek van zodra de nodige faciliteiten beschikbaar zijn. Deze ‘Catalogue of Woody Plants’ bevat de inventaris van alle houtachtige planten die men kan terugvinden te Herkenrode of het Arboretum Wespelaar. Beide domeinen zijn op welbepaalde data toegankelijk voor de leden van de vzw Open Tuinen van België. Ook groepen zijn welkom maar enkel op aanvraag. Verschillende velden van het originele gegevensbestand zijn afgekort of weggelaten in deze gedrukte versie van de catalogus. De digitale versie van de databank kan geraadpleegd worden op de website. L’association sans but lucratif Arboretum Wespelaar fut constituée en 2001 pour assurer la gestion de quelques 19 ha de collections botaniques situées sur la propriété de Philippe de Spoelberch, à Wespelaar. Depuis 2005, cette tache à été reprise par la Fondation Arboretum Wespelaar . Le conseil d'administration de la société a décidé d'ouvrir l'Arboretum pour un public intéressé, à des moments réguliers, dès que toutes les facilités sont en place. Le présent catalogue reprend l’ensemble des plantes ligneuses vivantes, dans le jardin de Herkenrode et l’Arboretum Wespelaar. Ceux-ci sont ouverts au public, aux groupes sur demande et, occasionnellement, dans le cadre des journées portes ouvertes organisées par Jardins Ouverts de Belgique asbl. La version imprimée de l’inventaire a volontairement tronqué certains champs pour permettre de ne présenter qu’une ligne par spécimen. La version numérique de la base de données peut être consultée sur le site.

Such entries can originate through purchase or transplanting from own nursery. The plant may have been growing for several years already (as seedlings, cuttings, etc.) in the various nurseries at Herkenrode. Plants will only receive an accession number when they definitely enter the collection. Name: THE PLANT'S BOTANICAL NAME This field contains the name for genus, species, subspecies, variety, form and cultivar, in that order. For practical reasons, it was decided to avoid splitting the denomination over several computer fields. The result is that one has a condensed listing with all relevant information in one computer field. Nomenclature has been very much simplified. Abbreviations have therefore been necessary, mostly for the named cultivars. For plants of wild origin provenance data are included and take following form: collector and number, location, country, altitude. Loc: LOCATION This 3-digit code relates to the overall plan of "Herkenrode + Arboretum Wespelaar", Garden (A - Z, 1-100, and 300 to 500), Arboretum (100 to 299). The numbering of the locations is by natural boundaries. D: DATE OF PLANTATION These 2 digits indicate the year of plantation in the stated location ("Loc"). If plants are moved within the collection after their introduction, this date will be changed accordingly. Src: SOURCE OF PLANT This 3-digit code relates to the appendix of sources. "WLD" stands for plants collected in the wild, directly or indirectly, location of collection will be found under DATA. S: STATUS This field has been expanded to describe the growth condition of living plants: "0" The plant is dead: see under data for reason, date, etc. It could have been moved to another collection or given away (dead plants are not included in this Catalogue) "1" The plant is in poor condition at the time of inventory. This may be eventually corrected in later inventories if the plant's condition improves. "2" Damaged, cut back (storms, diseases, frost etc...). "3" Lack of vigour, poorly adapted, die back. "4" Normal growth. "6" Is used for synonyms H: HARDINESS RATING AT HERKENRODE AND ARBORETUM WESPELAAR A: hardy B: leaf damage C: branch damage D: cut to the ground, recovering since E: killed outright V: VERIFICATION OF TAXONOMY T: typical V: verified C: close to the type (minor deviations) H: hybrid of the type (50 % deviation) K: hybrid of known parentage ?: requires further determination X: error to be determined and changed DATA: One may find further refinements: A+: leaf and flower bud hardy at Herkenrode and/or Arboretum A-: flower-buds frozen B+: light leaf damage (to evergreen plants) B-: heavy leaf damage, total defoliation C+: light wood damage C-: major branches die back Codes for source of plants in Herkenrode and Arboretum Wespelaar inventory ARN ARNOLD ARBORETUM: Boston Mass., USA, http://www.arboretum.harvard.edu/ AUS DAVID AUSTIN ROSES: Wolverhampton, GB, http://www.davidaustinroses.com/ BEA PETER BEALES ROSES: Attleborough Norfolk, GB, http://www.classicroses.co.uk/ BER BERTY, roseraie de: Rose nursery in Ardèche, F-07110 LARGENTIERE, http://www.roseraie-de-berty.com/ BIO BIOPLANT in vitro: Rue Eysden Mines 43a, Grand Halleux, Mr Grifsnée, BIS DE BISSCHOP: Camelia propagator in Gent, went out of business in 1987, produced up to 30.000 camellia's per annum BOD BODNANT GARDEN: Wales, GB, http://www.bodnantgarden.co.uk/index.html BRS BRESSINGHAM GARDENS, Diss, Norfolk, England, http://www.bressinghamgardens.com/ BUL BULK, Mark, specialist nursery,Boskoop, creator of Magnolia 'Leda', http://www.bulk-boskoop.nl/nl/ BUR BURNCOOSE Nurseries: Caerhays Estate, Cornwall, UK http://www.burncoose.co.uk CAS CASTEELS Roses, Putte, Belgium, http://www.casteelsrozen.be/ CEC CECE: CHOTEAU, Benoit , Pépinières CECE, 7130 Binche (Bray), http://www.cece-choteau.be/fr/index.php DBL DE BELDER: gifts or purchase from their propagation at Kalmthout or Hemelrijk, often WLD collected plants DCL Dr. DE CLERCQ: amateur propagator of rhodo etc., Nevele near Gent, http://www.pascuagarden.be/ Belgium, DDH DOMINIQUE DUHAUT: wholesale propagator of unusual plants, Aalter near Brugge, DEL DELBARD, France, roses, http://www.delbard.com/ DEV DAMIEN DEVOS: rare trees and shrubs, Anzegem, http://www.damiendevos.be/ DHO DIETRICH HOBBIE NURSERIES : Oldenburg, Germany DIV DIVERS: various suppliers, see under data for eventual name or further specification of origin, EDW EDELWEISS, roses EIS EISENHUT NURSERIES: Switserland, propagator of magnolias from Sir http://www.eisenhut.ch/ Peter Smither's at Vico Morcote, ESV ESVELD: Firma C.Esveld, Boskoop, Nederland, http://www.esveld.nl/index.html EVE ESPACE VERT ET ENVIRONNEMENT: near Fontainebleau, managed by Edouard d'Ardeev, many rhododendrons from seed open poll.

  • Plant Records.Pub
    Watsonia 27 : 375–387 (2009) PLANT RECORDS 375 Plant Records Records for publication must be submitted to the appropriate Vice-county Recorder (see BSBI Year Book 2008 ), and not to the Editors. Following publication of the New Atlas of the British & Irish Flora and the Vice-county Census Catalogue , new criteria have been drawn up for the inclusion of records in Plant Records . (See BSBI News no. 95, January 2004 pp. 10 & 11). These are outlined below: • First records of all taxa (species, subspecies and hybrids) included in the VCCC, designated as native, archaeophyte, neophyte or casual. • First record since 1970 of the taxa above, except in the case of Rubus , Hieracium and Taraxacum . • Records demonstrating the rediscovery of all taxa published as extinct in the VCCC or subsequently. • Newly reported definite extinctions. • Deletions from the VCCC (e.g. through the discovery of errors, the redetermination of specimens etc.) NB – only those errors affecting VCCC entry. • New 10km square records for Rare and Scarce plants, defined as those species in the New Atlas mapped in the British Isles in 100 10km squares or fewer. (See BSBI News no. 95, January 2004 pp 36–43). Records for the subdivisions of vice-counties will not be treated separately; they must therefore be records for the vice-county as a whole. However, records will be accepted for the major islands in v.cc. 100, 102–104, 110 and 113. In the following list, records are arranged in the order given in the List of Vascular Plants of the British Isles and its supplements by D.

    Fl. China 11: 516–553. 2008. 2. ACER Linnaeus, Sp. Pl. 2: 1054. 1753. 枫属 feng shu Trees or shrubs. Leaves mostly simple and palmately lobed or at least palmately veined, in a few species pinnately veined and entire or toothed, or pinnately or palmately 3–5-foliolate. Inflorescence corymbiform or umbelliform, sometimes racemose or large paniculate. Sepals (4 or)5, rarely 6. Petals (4 or)5, rarely 6, seldom absent. Stamens (4 or 5 or)8(or 10 or 12); filaments distinct. Carpels 2; ovules (1 or)2 per locule. Fruit a winged schizocarp, commonly a double samara, usually 1-seeded; embryo oily or starchy, radicle elongate, cotyledons 2, green, flat or plicate; endosperm absent. 2n = 26. About 129 species: widespread in both temperate and tropical regions of N Africa, Asia, Europe, and Central and North America; 99 species (61 endemic, three introduced) in China. Acer lanceolatum Molliard (Bull. Soc. Bot. France 50: 134. 1903), described from Guangxi, is an uncertain species and is therefore not accepted here. The type specimen, in Berlin (B), has been destroyed. Up to now, no additional specimens have been found that could help clarify the application of this name. Worldwide, Japanese maples are famous for their autumn color, and there are over 400 cultivars. Also, many Chinese maple trees have beautiful autumn colors and have been cultivated widely in Chinese gardens, such as Acer buergerianum, A. davidii, A. duplicatoserratum, A. griseum, A. pictum, A. tataricum subsp. ginnala, A. triflorum, A. truncatum, and A. wilsonii.

  • Online Na-English-Chinese Dictionary (Version 1.0)
    Online Na-English-Chinese Dictionary (version 1.0) Alexis Michaud August 5, 2015 1 GUIDE TO USING THE DICTIONARY Introduction About the language This dictionary documents the lexicon of the Na language (nɑ˩-ʐwɤ˥) as spoken in and around the plain of Yongning, located in Southwestern China, at the border between Yunnan and Sichuan, at a latitude of 27°50’ N and a longitude of 100°41’ E. This language is known locally as ‘Mosuo’. Chronology and method The author’s fieldwork on Yongning Na began in October 2006, with tone as its main focus (lexical tone, andtonalmor- phology). This required examining as many lexical items as possible to ensure that no tone category was overlooked, but lexicographic work was not in itself a priority. A list of words was begun through elicitation, and gradually expanded and corrected as narratives were recorded and transcribed; addition of new words was therefore a slow process. An advantage of placing the emphasis on text collection is that a context is available to help clarify the meaning of newly encountered words, also offering a basis for further discussion of their usage. But systematic elicitation of large amounts ofvocabulary was not carried out, hence the limited number of entries: currently slightly under 3,000. Unless otherwise stated, all the data are from one language consultant, Mrs. Latami Dashilame (lɑ˧tʰɑ˧mi˥ ʈæ˧ʂɯ˧- lɑ˩mv˩; Chinese: 拉它米打史拉么). She was born in 1950 in the hamlet called ə˧lɑ˧-ʁwɤ#˥ in Na, close to the monastery of Yongning. The administrative coordinates of this village are: Yúnnán province, Lìjiāng municipality, Nínglàng Yí autonomous county, Yǒngníng district, Ālāwǎ village (云南省丽江市宁蒗彝族自治县永宁乡阿拉瓦村).

  • Garden Wise Non-Invasive Plants for Your Garden
    Garden Wise Non-Invasive Plants for Your Garden Western Washington Guide Voluntary codes of conduct For the gardening public (annotated): In an effort to reduce the spread of invasive plants used for horticultural purposes, experts have created the “Voluntary Codes of Conduct,” a series of steps that nursery professionals, landscape architects, gardeners, and others can take to help curb the spread of invasive horticultural plants. ◊ Ask for only non-invasive species when you acquire plants. Plant only environmentally safe species in your gardens. Work towards and promote new landscape design that is friendly to regional ecosystems. ◊ Seek information on which species are invasive in your area. Sources could include botanical gardens, horticulturists, conservationists, and government agencies. Remove invasive species from your land and replace them with non-invasive species suited to your site and needs. ◊ Do not trade plants with other gardeners if you know they are species with invasive characteristics. ◊ Request that botanical gardens and nurseries promote, display, and sell only non-invasive species. ◊ Help educate your community and other gardeners in your area through personal contact and in such settings as garden clubs and other civic groups. For the full Gardening Codes of Conduct, or to learn about the Codes of Conduct for Government, Nursery Professionals, Landscape Architects, and Botanic Gardens and Arboreta, please go to the Invasive.org, TNC’s Global Invasive Species Team webpage: www.invasive.org/gist/horticulture/using-codes.html. Garden Wise is dedicated to Ann Lennartz Garden Wise Non-Invasive Plants for Your Garden While most exotic plants are not problematic, a few have become invasive in Washington State.

Reed Section Editor and Moderator 623 SNA RESEARCH CONFERENCE - VOL. 47 - 2002 ‘Summer Cascade’ River Birch Thomas G. Ranney1, John D. Allen2, Daniel A. Allen2, and Myron O. Fountain3 1Mountain Horticultural Crops Research and Extension Center, North Carolina State University, 455 Research Drive, Fletcher, NC 28732 2Shiloh Nursery, 164 Allen Road, Harmony, NC 28634 3North Carolina Foundation Seed Producers, 3709 Hillsborough St., Room 3A, Raleigh, NC 27607 Index Words: Betula nigra L., New Introduction, Nursery Crop Nature of Work: River birch (Betula nigra L.) are important landscape plants for much of the United States and are valued for their desirable ornamental characteristics (4), heat tolerance (2), tolerance to poor drainage (1), and pest resistance (3). Identification and evaluation of new forms of river birch can expand the utility of this tree for diverse landscape applications. Results and Discussion: ‘Summer Cascade’ river birch (PPAF) is a new, weeping form of river birch that was discovered by John and Daniel Allen at Shiloh Nursery in Harmony, NC. The tree is unique in its pendu- lous habit, with graceful arching branches, that creates an ideal speci- men plant or focal point in the landscape (Figure 1). Detailed character- istics of the tree include: Habit. If untrained, the plant forms a mounded shrub or small tree with successive layers of arching branches. Alternatively, the plant can be staked/trained with a central trunk and pendulous branches. Flexible new growth also makes the tree ideal for use in topiary. Growth Rate. Growth is fast.

    Expression and Function of the Chloroplast-encoded Gene matK. Michelle Marie Barthet Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Biological Sciences K. W. Hilu, Chair E. Beers G. Gillaspy J. Sible R. A. Walker February 9, 2006 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: MatK, chloroplast, maturase, fast-evolving, Orchidaceae Copyright 2006, Michelle Marie Barthet Expression and Function of the chloroplast-encoded gene matK. Michelle Marie Barthet ABSTRACT The chloroplast matK gene has been identified as a rapidly evolving gene at nucleotide and corresponding amino acid levels. The high number of nucleotide substitutions and length mutations in matK has provided a strong phylogenetic signal for resolving plant phylogenies at various taxonomic levels. However, these same features have raised questions as to whether matK produces a functional protein product. matK is the only proposed chloroplast-encoded group II intron maturase. There are 15 genes in the chloroplast that would require a maturase for RNA splicing. Six of these genes have introns that are not excised by a nuclear imported maturase, leaving MatK as the only candidate for processing introns in these genes. Very little research has been conducted concerning the expression and function of this important gene and its protein product. It has become crucial to understand matK expression in light of its significance in RNA processing and plant systematics. In this study, we examined the expression, function and evolution of MatK using a combination of molecular and genetic methods. Our findings indicate that matK RNA and protein is expressed in a variety of plant species, and expression of MatK protein is regulated by development.
