Well-Known Plants in Each Angiosperm Order
Well-known plants in each angiosperm order This list is generally from least evolved (most ancient) to most evolved (most modern). (I’m not sure if this applies for Eudicots; I’m listing them in the same order as APG II.) The first few plants are mostly primitive pond and aquarium plants. Next is Illicium (anise tree) from Austrobaileyales, then the magnoliids (Canellales thru Piperales), then monocots (Acorales through Zingiberales), and finally eudicots (Buxales through Dipsacales). The plants before the eudicots in this list are considered basal angiosperms. This list focuses only on angiosperms and does not look at earlier plants such as mosses, ferns, and conifers. Basal angiosperms – mostly aquatic plants Unplaced in order, placed in Amborellaceae family • Amborella trichopoda – one of the most ancient flowering plants Unplaced in order, placed in Nymphaeaceae family • Water lily • Cabomba (fanwort) • Brasenia (watershield) Ceratophyllales • Hornwort Austrobaileyales • Illicium (anise tree, star anise) Basal angiosperms - magnoliids Canellales • Drimys (winter's bark) • Tasmanian pepper Laurales • Bay laurel • Cinnamon • Avocado • Sassafras • Camphor tree • Calycanthus (sweetshrub, spicebush) • Lindera (spicebush, Benjamin bush) Magnoliales • Custard-apple • Pawpaw • guanábana (soursop) • Sugar-apple or sweetsop • Cherimoya • Magnolia • Tuliptree • Michelia • Nutmeg • Clove Piperales • Black pepper • Kava • Lizard’s tail • Aristolochia (birthwort, pipevine, Dutchman's pipe) • Asarum (wild ginger) Basal angiosperms - monocots Acorales -
Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page. Basal Angiosperms (ANITA grade) Amborellales Amborellaceae, sole family, the earliest branch of flowering plants, a shrub native to New Caledonia – Amborella Nymphaeales Hydatellaceae – aquatics from Australasia, previously classified as a grass Cabombaceae (water shield – Brasenia, fanwort – Cabomba) Nymphaeaceae (water lilies – Nymphaea; pond lilies – Nuphar) Austrobaileyales Schisandraceae (wild sarsaparilla, star vine – Schisandra; Japanese -

The purpose of the guide is to provide the necessary information about variety selection, planting requirements, and plant care that growers will need to make informed decisions. This guide will look at blackcurrants, red currants (including white and pink, which are of the same species as reds), and gooseberries. While not all varieties are included in this guide, we cover those that seem to have the most potential for the North American market. Common varieties such as Pixwell, Oregon Champion, Colossal (gooseberries), Consort, Ben Nevis, Crandall, Ben Lomond, Ben Alder (black currants) have been surpassed by the introduction of varieties that combine higher yields, better disease resistance and superior fruit qualities. In future editions of this guide we will discuss new and relevant varieties as they are made available, as well as updated information on yields, pests, and information from the plant trials that will be taking place across North America. -

Ilex Mucronata (Formerly Nemopanthus Mucronata) – Mountain Holly, Catberry Pretty Fruits, but Not Palatable/Edible for Humans; Eaten by Birds
Prepared by Henry Mann, Nature Enthusiast/Naturalist For the Pasadena Ski and Nature Park In late summer and in fall, some herbs, shrubs and trees will produce fleshy fruits, some of which are edible, some inedible and some toxic to humans. Because of their detailed structure they have various botanical names such as pomes, drupes, berries, etc., however, commonly we often refer to all fleshy fruits as just berries. Also many dry fruits are produced, but only a few of these will be featured because of their edibility or toxicity. Photos are from the archives of HM except where otherwise indicated. Edibility “Edibility” is a highly variable term with a range of meanings from delicious, to nourishing and somewhat tasty, to edible but not very palatable. A small number of fruits that are edible and even delicious to most, can be non- palatable or even allergenic to a few individuals. Some fleshy fruits which are not very palatable fresh make superb jams, jellies, syrups, wines, etc. when cooked or fermented. Then there are fruits that have distinct toxic properties from mild to deadly. With any food collected and eaten from the wild it is extremely important to be certain of identity. There can be similar appearing fruits that are poisonous. This presentation does not recommend consuming any of the featured fruits. The viewer takes full personal responsibility for anything he or she eats. Vaccinium angustifolium - Low Sweet Blueberry, Lowbush Blueberry. A Newfoundland favorite and staple. Vaccinium vitis-idaea – Partridgeberry, Mountain Cranberry. A commonly sought and utilized Newfoundland fruit. Fragaria virginiana – Wild Strawberry and F. -

Living in the Land of Dark Fruits
Living in the Land of Dark Fruits Presented by Karena Schmidt, Ecologist KBIC Natural Resources Department Now we turn toward the Plants. As far as the eye can see, the Plants grow, working many wonders. They sustain many life forms. With our minds gathered together, we give our thanks and look forward to seeing Plant life continue for many generations to come. (Excerpt from the Haudenosaunee Thanksgiving Address) When we look about us, we see that the berries are still here, providing us with delicious foods. The leader of the berries is the strawberry, the first to ripen in the spring. Can we agree that we are grateful that the berries are with us in the world and send our thanksgiving, love, and respect to the berries. Now our minds are one.
