The group met with the leader Paul at Malaga airport, having arrived on various flights from the UK. We made our way from the arrivals hall to the multi-storey car park, where our minibus was waiting. Leaving the airport, we drove west and then north towards Alhaurin de la Torre, stopping in an area of open Pine forest for an early inspection of the local flora, which did not disappoint. Aristolochia baetica (a Birthwort), Teucrium fruticans (Tree Germander), Ophrys tenthredinifera (Sawfly Orchid), Ophrys ciliata (Mirror Orchid) and Phlomis purpurea were all seen. In addition, Spanish Festoon was spotted and Serin was also heard. Moving on, we stopped at the top of a hill, overlooking Malaga, for our picnic, and a Hoopoe flew over as we parked. Great Tit and Blackcap were heard and several more spikes of Ophrys ciliata were found, as well as Ononis natrix (Yellow Restharrow), Gynandriris sisyrinchium (Barbary Nut) and Vinca difformis (Perriwinkle). We continued our journey on through Alhaurin el Grande, Coin and on up to El Burgo, one of the ‘White Villages’, for which Andalucia is famous. -

Maine Collection. 49. https://digitalcommons.usm.maine.edu/me_collection/49 This Book is brought to you for free and open access by USM Digital Commons. It has been accepted for inclusion in Maine Collection by an authorized administrator of USM Digital Commons. For more information, please contact [email protected]. BACKGROUND and PURPOSE In an effort to encourage the protection of native Maine plants that are naturally reduced or low in number, the State Planning Office has compiled a list of endangered and threatened plants. Of Maine's approximately 1500 native vascular plant species, 155, or about 10%, are included on the Official List of Maine's Plants that are Endangered or Threatened. Of the species on the list, three are also listed at the federal level. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. has des·ignated the Furbish's Lousewort (Pedicularis furbishiae) and Small Whorled Pogonia (lsotria medeoloides) as Endangered species and the Prairie White-fringed Orchid (Platanthera leucophaea) as Threatened. Listing rare plants of a particular state or region is a process rather than an isolated and finite event. -

Day Two: After a not too early breakfast, we get together to take a short drive high into the mountains above Aghios Nikolaos, stopping on the way to find species of interest. Look out for colchicum and crocus, especially the rare and beautiful endemic, Crocus oreocreticus. We take a delicious lunch at Zerbas tavern where there is a chance to look through a catalogue of Flowers of the Katharo and to talk to Flowers of Crete supporter Yianni, who has lived here all his life. Expect to find Sternbergia greuteriana, Colchicum cretense, Crocus oreocreticus and Scilla autumnalis. Day Three: An earlier start and a slightly longer drive will take us to the north coast to find the rare Colchicum cupanii, Crocus tournefortii and many, many more delightful flowering bulbs. We will then turn inland to admire Sternbergia, colchicum and Narcissus serotinus on the way. We will spend time on the Lassithi plateau for botanising, photography and maybe some sketching, then will take a detour to visit a little known area. Expect to find Colchicum cupanii, Crocus boryi and Crocus laevigatus. -
Descripción Del Género (Pdf)
CLXXXV. IRIDACEAE 415 2. Juno (Extra): 441-445 (1988)]. Aunque la observación de individuos aislados –pertenecientes a ambos extremos de variación– podría llevar a admitir la independencia de ambos táxones, la realidad se muestra diferente. La gran variabilidad que se observa en toda la Península Ibérica, entre las pobla- ciones e incluso en el seno de una misma población, hace que los caracteres citados sean inservibles a efectos prácticos. Son escasos los individuos o las poblaciones que se ajustan al patrón descrito, siendo lo más frecuente por toda la Península la existencia de poblaciones cuyos representantes muestran valores intermedios entre dichos extremos de variación o, por el contrario, combinan ca- racterísticas supuestamente propias de cada uno de ellos. De esta manera, la segregación taxonómi- ca se hace impracticable cuando se contempla un marco territorial suficientemente amplio. Es interesante mencionar que en el NE de España se encuentran poblaciones con solo indivi- duos típicos, de flores amarillas –que corresponden a la f. lutescens; I. lutescens subvar. luteola Rouy in Rouy & Foucaud, Fl. France 12: 81 (1910); I. chamaeiris subvar. luteola Rouy in Rouy & Foucaud, Fl. France 12: 82 (1910), nom. inval.; I. lutescens f. crocea O. de Bolòs & J. Vigo, Fl. Països Catalans 4: 158 (2001)–, y poblaciones donde éstos conviven con ejemplares de flores azul- violetas –denominados I. lutescens f. violacea (Rouy) O. de Bolòs & J. Vigo, Fl. Països Catalans 4: 158 (2001); I. chamaeiris subvar. violacea Rouy in Rouy & Foucaud, Fl. France 12: 82 (1910), ba- sión.; I. lutescens subvar. violacea Rouy in Rouy & Foucaud, Fl. France 12: 81 (1910)–; en el resto del territorio ibérico solo se han observado individuos con flores azul-violetas o purpúreo-violetas –en distinto grado de intensidad en ambos casos–, que muy ocasionalmente se entremezclan con al- gunos de flores blancas –I. -
2 Stirling 2012
The Scottish Rock Garden Club SHOW REPORTS STIRLING in Kincardine SHOW 2012 Best Plant in the Show - Forrest Medal Trillium rivale ‘Purple Heart’ shown by Cyril Lafong Fifers win in Fife! The Trillium was part of Cyril's 3 pan entry in Class 1 along with Primula 'Broadwell Milkmaid' and Tecophilaea cyanocrocus leich- tlinii. ' Broadwell Milkmaid' was judged Best Primula, taking the Spiller Trophy and also the Ben Ledi Trophy for Best European plant in the show. The Trillium was Best Non European plant and it won the Institute of Quarrying Quaich. The Bronze Medal and the Fife County Trophy for Most Points in section 2 was won by SRGC President Liz Mills. The show was held this year in Kincardine in Fife in a good venue, an old school which has been converted into a community centre. It is central in the town which is easily reached by road from most parts of Scotland as ‘all roads lead to the Kincardine Bridge’! [ the M90, M80 & M876 anyway!] When it started 30 years ago, the Stirling show was gifted the trophies from then defunct Dun- fermline show, which explains why so many of the trophies have names associated with Fife, Carnegie and min- ing. It is nice to see them being awarded in Fife once more and to Fifers, as Cyril lives in Glenrothes and Liz in Saline. As you can see the show hall was brightly lit and the benches well filled in the new venue. These pictures were taken during judging when it was nice and quiet. The yellow verticals are covers on the iron pillars in the hall. -
PB–219 Iris Tuberosa Var. Longifolia (Iridaceae) Üzerine Sistematik Notlar Ve Yeni Bir Yayılış Alanı
bornmuelleri, Gypsophila leucochlaena, Ebenus depressa, Verbascum melitenensis, Astragalus melitenensis, Astragalus scabrifolius, Reseda tomentosa, Aethionema lepidioides, Acanthophyllum oppositiflorum, Muscari discolor, Dianthus masmenaeus, Silene akmaniana, Minuartia corymbulosa var. gypsophylloides taksonlarıdır. Türlere ait bilgiler Türkiye florası ve Türkiye Bitkileri Kırmızı Kitabı’na göre incelenmiştir. Bulgular: İç Anadolu Bölgesi ile Doğu Anadolu Bölgesi arasında geçiş teşkil eden Tohma Çayı Vadisi ve çevresinde kurulu olan Darende İlçesi, bozkır bitki örtüsüyle kaplıdır. Şiddetli bir kuraklığın hüküm sürdüğü bölgede erozyon üst seviyededir ve bunun sonucunda kuraklığa dayanıklı bitkiler yaygın olarak bulunmaktadır. Aşırı otlatma ciddi habitat tahribatına neden olmakta ve bu alanlardaki bitkilerin populasyonlarını etkilemektedir. İnsan kullanımından kaynaklanan etkenlerin habitat bozulmalarını artırdığı görülmüştür. Örneğin Akçatoprak mevkiinde ağaçlandırma çalışmaları, Hekimhan yolu üzerinde çöp tesisi ve ağaçlandırma yapılması aynı alandaki birçok türün yaşamını tehlikeye atmaktadır. Önlem alınmadığı takdirde birçok türün nesli tehlike altına girebilir. Centaurea brevifimbriata 5 noktada, Fumana trisperma 3 noktada, Astragalus scabrifolius 2 noktada, Gypsophila leucochlaena, Reseda tomentosa 2 noktada, Acanthophyllum oppositiflorum, Klasea bornmuelleri ve Aethionema lepidioides 1 noktada bulunur. Bu türlerin birey sayıları 100-5000 arasında değişmektedir. Diğer türler daha geniş yayılışlıdır. Bu türlerden bazıları ilk kez fotoğraflanmıştır. -
Ulster Group Newsletter 2013.Pdf
Newsletter No:12 Contents:- Editorial Obituaries Contributions:- Notes on Lilies Margaret and Henry Taylor Some Iris Species David Ledsham 2nd Czech International Rock Garden Conference Kay McDowell Homage to Catalonia Liam McCaughey Alpine Cuttings - or News Items Show News:- Information:- Web and 'Plant of the Month' Programme 2013 -2014 Editorial After a long cold spring I hope that all our members have been enjoying the beautiful summer, our hottest July for over 100 years. In the garden, flowers, butterflies and bees are revelling in the sunshine and the house martins, nesting in our eaves, are giving flying displays that surpass those of the Red Arrows. There is an emphasis ( almost a fashion) in horticultural circles at the moment on wild life gardening and wild flower meadows. I have always felt that alpines are the wild flowers of the mountains, whether growing in alpine meadows or nestling in among the rocks. Our Society aims to give an appreciation and thus the protection and conservation of wild flowers and plants all over the world. Perhaps you have just picked up this Newsletter and are new to the Society but whether you have a window pot or a few acres you would be very welcome to join the group and find out how much pleasure, in many different ways, these mountain wild flowers can bring. My thanks to our contributors this year who illustrate how varied our interest in plants can be. Not only did the Taylors give us a wonderful lecture and hands-on demonstration last November but kindly followed it up with an article for the Newsletter, and I hope that many of you, like me, have two healthy little pots of lily seedlings thanks to their generous gift of seeds. -
