RAS HORTICULTURE AWARDS PROGRAM (HAP) 2017 Program Update RAS HORTICULTURE AWARDS PROGRAM (HAP) 2017 Program Update Adapted in part from Greater Seattle Aquarium Society HAP - http://www.gsas.org/hap.html The Raleigh Aquarium Society has revised its Horticulture Award Program (HAP) to encourage more members to maintain and reproduce aquatic plants, make them more widely available and to share their knowledge, aquatic gardening experiences and aquascaping talents. The program is open to all members. Points are still awarded according to plant hardiness and general level of difficulty. In the revised program, points will now be awarded for reproducing the plant(s) or simply maintaining them in their tank for at least 3 months. Semi-aquatic (amphibious) plants grown out of water are now allowed. To illustrate and document success, the RAS member may now submit a sequence of two or more photographs of the plant(s) in their tank or growing container and are encouraged to include commentary and advice on how to keep, arrange and reproduce them. The photos can also present the beauty of individual aquarium plants and placement in an aquascape. The pictures and other submitted documentation will be shared with other aquarists through the RAS web site or social media. To receive credit and to further share with members, the plants could alternatively be donated for sale in an RAS auction. A desired outcome of the program is a database of the plants successfully grown in the local area and which may be available for sale or trade. For more information, feel free to contact Neil Frank ([email protected]). GOALS 1. Promote keeping, propagation of aquatic plants in home aquaria; 2. Gather and disseminate information about cultivation, maintenance, display and propagation methods 3. Advertise and increase the availability of plants among RAS members (for sale or trade), including rare or hard to - obtain varieties TO GET CREDIT Submit a HAP form and at least one of the following: • Two or more time-sequenced photos, spanning a period of at least one or more months, • Donate the plant to an RAS auction at a monthly meeting or weekend workshop. • Write an article on the maintenance and propagation of the plant for the monthly newsletter • Do a presentation at a monthly meeting. (The latter two may be applicable for plants whose growth in the aquarists tank can be documented, but is no longer available for entry into an auction) GUIDELINES AND REQUIREMENTS 1. The photographs of the member’s aquarium should show the progression of the plant(s) over time. For slower growing plants, photos taken at least 3 months apart may be needed. A full tank view and close-up photos are both desirable. 2. For bunch plants and floating plants, doubling of the original amount of plant material or a minimum of 3 stems are needed, 3. For plants with rhizomes that grow above the substrate (e.g. Microsorum and Anubias), at least 2 inches of new rhizome separated from the parent plant is necessary to receive credit. 4. In the case of plants with rhizomes that grow below the substrate (like Cryptocoryne), production of one self-sustaining separate plant is sufficient. 5. For plants whose small number of leaves grow from a crown and reproduce with “runners” like Vallisneria or chain swords (Helanthium spp., whose synonym is Echinodorus), production and submittal of several plants are needed, 6. Plants produced by adventitious new plants developed on leaves or submerged stems must be large enough to judged self- sustaining and identifiable as the same as the parent plant. 7. Points for flowering of plants may be awarded for either submerged or emersed specimens. 8. For propagation by seed, points will be awarded in addition to points awarded for flowering. ADDITIONAL CRITERIA 1. Points are awarded for only one reproduction of each species. 2. Seeds must have been propagated from the breeder’s own plants. 3. Photos should be submitted to the HAP chairperson or any RAS board member via email. 4. Report forms and photo commentary should be given to the HAP chairperson or any RAS board member either through the web-site, by e-mail or as paper copy at the monthly meeting. 5. The aquarist must be a member in good standing (dues paid) of the Raleigh Aquarium Society. AWARDS A certificate will be awarded to recognize your accomplishments at the following levels: Novice Plant Breeder 50 points, any class Aquatic Horticulturist 100 points, max 50 in class A Advanced Aquatic Horticulturist 200 points, at least one in class C Expert Aquatic Horticulturist 300 points, oral or written report Master Aquatic Horticulturist 400 points, present a program at a general meeting POINT CLASSIFICATION FOR PLANT SPECIES Hardiness classifications and scientific nomenclature from http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/forumapc/plantfinder/ Species with strikethrough line are noxious weeds as listed by USDA or North Carolina and are prohibited in NC and are not allowed in the RAS HAP CLASS A (VERY EASY)--- 5 POINTS • Anubias barteri var. barteri • Hydrocotyle leucocephala (penny wort ) • Anubias barteri var. nana • Hygrophila polysperma • Anubias barteri var. nana 'Marble' • Hygrophila polysperma 'Ceylon' • Anubias barteri var. nana 'Petite' • Hygrophila sp.

    Invasive Alien Plants An Ecological Appraisal for the Indian Subcontinent EDITED BY I.R. BHATT, J.S. SINGH, S.P. SINGH, R.S. TRIPATHI AND R.K. KOHL! 019eas Invasive Alien Plants An Ecological Appraisal for the Indian Subcontinent FSC ...wesc.org MIX Paper from responsible sources `FSC C013604 CABI INVASIVE SPECIES SERIES Invasive species are plants, animals or microorganisms not native to an ecosystem, whose introduction has threatened biodiversity, food security, health or economic development. Many ecosystems are affected by invasive species and they pose one of the biggest threats to biodiversity worldwide. Globalization through increased trade, transport, travel and tour- ism will inevitably increase the intentional or accidental introduction of organisms to new environments, and it is widely predicted that climate change will further increase the threat posed by invasive species. To help control and mitigate the effects of invasive species, scien- tists need access to information that not only provides an overview of and background to the field, but also keeps them up to date with the latest research findings. This series addresses all topics relating to invasive species, including biosecurity surveil- lance, mapping and modelling, economics of invasive species and species interactions in plant invasions. Aimed at researchers, upper-level students and policy makers, titles in the series provide international coverage of topics related to invasive species, including both a synthesis of facts and discussions of future research perspectives and possible solutions.

  • Low Risk Aquarium and Pond Plants
    Plant Identification Guide Low-risk aquarium and pond plants Planting these in your pond or aquarium is environmentally-friendly. Glossostigma elatinoides, image © Sonia Frimmel. One of the biggest threats to New Zealand’s waterbodies is the establishment and proliferation of weeds. The majority of New Zealand’s current aquatic weeds started out as aquarium and pond plants. To reduce the occurrence of new weeds becoming established in waterbodies this guide has been prepared to encourage the use of aquarium and pond plants that pose minimal risk to waterbodies. Guide prepared by Dr John Clayton, Paula Reeves, Paul Champion and Tracey Edwards, National Centre of Aquatic Biodiversity and Biosecurity, NIWA with funding from the Department of Conservation. The guides will be updated on a regular basis and will be available on the NIWA website: www.niwa.co.nz/ncabb/tools. Key to plant life-forms Sprawling marginal plants. Grow across the ground and out over water. Pond plants Short turf-like plants. Grow in shallow water on the edges of ponds and foreground of aquariums. Includes very small plants (up to 2-3 cm in height). Most species can grow both submerged (usually more erect) and emergent. Pond and aquarium plants Tall emergent plants. Can grow in water depths up to 2 m deep depending on the species. Usually tall reed-like plants but sometimes with broad leaves. Ideal for deeper ponds. Pond plants Free floating plants. These plants grow on the water surface and are not anchored to banks or bottom substrates. Pond and aquarium plants Floating-leaved plants. Water lily-type plants.

  • Notes on Cryptocoryne
    Notes on Cryptocoryne BY T. Petch, B.A., B.Sc. WITH FOUR PLATES The genus Cryptocoryne (Araceae) was established by Fischer for the reception of two Indian species, Cryptocoryne spiralis and Crypto- coryne ciliata, which had been described under Ambrosinia by Roxburgh. Additional species were described by Roxburgh, Schott, and other botanists, while in Beccari, Malesia, Engler described eleven new species from Borneo and gave a conspectus of twenty-four known species. In Flora British India, Hooker enumerated sixteen species, and in Flora of Ceylon, five species. The total number of species is now over thirty, confined to the Eastern Tropics. For our knowledge of the structure of the flower we are indebted almost entirely to Griffith, who recorded the results of his examination of fresh specimens of Cryptocoryne ciliata in Trans. Linn. Soc., XX, pp. 263-276. The spadix is small, and it is not easy to determine the details of its structure from dried specimens. Consequently, very little has been added to Griffith's account, and a detailed examination of the living flower is still lacking in the case of the majority of the alleged species. In Ceylon, Cryptocoryne has been considered very rare. Crypto- coryne Thwaitesii Schott, hitherto the best-known species, occurs in the wet low-country in the south-west of the Island. C. Nevillii Trimen was described from a single collection made by Nevill in the Eastern Province. C. Beckettii Thwaites was collected in 1865 in Matale East, and there are two subsequent collections assigned to this species in Herb., Peradeniya. The record of C.

  • History and Current Status of Systematic Research with Araceae
    HISTORY AND CURRENT STATUS OF SYSTEMATIC RESEARCH WITH ARACEAE Thomas B. Croat Missouri Botanical Garden P. O. Box 299 St. Louis, MO 63166 U.S.A. Note: This paper, originally published in Aroideana Vol. 21, pp. 26–145 in 1998, is periodically updated onto the IAS web page with current additions. Any mistakes, proposed changes, or new publications that deal with the systematics of Araceae should be brought to my attention. Mail to me at the address listed above, or e-mail me at [email protected]. Last revised November 2004 INTRODUCTION The history of systematic work with Araceae has been previously covered by Nicolson (1987b), and was the subject of a chapter in the Genera of Araceae by Mayo, Bogner & Boyce (1997) and in Curtis's Botanical Magazine new series (Mayo et al., 1995). In addition to covering many of the principal players in the field of aroid research, Nicolson's paper dealt with the evolution of family concepts and gave a comparison of the then current modern systems of classification. The papers by Mayo, Bogner and Boyce were more comprehensive in scope than that of Nicolson, but still did not cover in great detail many of the participants in Araceae research. In contrast, this paper will cover all systematic and floristic work that deals with Araceae, which is known to me. It will not, in general, deal with agronomic papers on Araceae such as the rich literature on taro and its cultivation, nor will it deal with smaller papers of a technical nature or those dealing with pollination biology.
