The national park was F E R N S established in 1968. In 1994, a cooperative agreement with the California Department of Parks and Recreation added Del Norte Coast, Prairie Creek, Athyriaceae – Lady Fern Family and Jedediah Smith Redwoods state parks to form a single administrative Athyrium filix-femina var. cyclosporum • northwestern lady fern unit. Together they comprise about 133,000 acres (540 km2), including 37 miles of coast line. Almost half of the remaining old growth redwood forests Blechnaceae – Deer Fern Family are protected in these four parks.

  • Anthony Chabot Plants
    Anthony Chabot Plants A photographic guide to wild plants of Anthony Chabot Regional Park Sorted by Scientific Name Photographs by Wilde Legard Botanist, East Bay Regional Park District Revision: February 23, 2007 More than 2,000 species of native and naturalized plants grow wild in the San Francisco Bay Area. Most are very difficult to identify without the help of good illustrations. This is designed to be a simple, color photo guide to help you identify some of these plants. The selection of plants displayed in this guide is by no means complete. The intent is to expand the quality and quantity of photos over time. The revision date is shown on the cover and on the header of each photo page. A comprehensive plant list for this area (including the many species not found in this publication) can be downloaded at the East Bay Regional Park District’s wild plant download page at: http://www.ebparks.org. This guide is published electronically in Adobe Acrobat® format to accommodate these planned updates. You have permission to freely download, distribute, and print this pdf for individual use. You are not allowed to sell the electronic or printed versions. In this version of the guide, the included plants are sorted alphabetically by scientific name. Under each photograph are four lines of information, based on upon the current standard wild plant reference for California: The Jepson Manual: Higher Plants of California, 1993. Scientific Name Scientific names revised since 1993 are NOT included in this edition. Common Name These non-standard names are based on Jepson and other local references.

Weeds of the future? Threats to Australia’s grazing industries by garden plants Abstract This report identifies 281 introduced garden plants and 800 lower priority species that present a significant risk to Australia’s grazing industries should they naturalise. Of the 281 species: • Nearly all have been recorded overseas as agricultural or environmental weeds (or both); • More than one tenth (11%) have been recorded as noxious weeds overseas; • At least one third (33%) are toxic and may harm or even kill livestock; • Almost all have been commercially available in Australia in the last 20 years; • Over two thirds (70%) were still available from Australian nurseries in 2004; • Over two thirds (72%) are not currently recognised as weeds under either State or Commonwealth legislation.

  • Every Spring, a Variety of Annual and Perennial Wildflowers Bloom in Sonoma County’S Parks
    Every spring, a variety of annual and perennial wildflowers bloom in Sonoma County’s parks. This guide will help you identify some of the more common flowers. Parks known for their wildflower displays include Crane Creek, Foothill, North Sonoma Mountain, Sonoma Valley and Taylor Mountain, but you will notice certain flowers in almost every park. The flowers in this guide are organized by color, and more details can be found by clicking on the “More info” link in each entry. BLUE-ISH FLOWERS (Blue to Violet) YELLOW-ISH FLOWERS (Yellow to Orange) WHITISH FLOWERS REDDISH FLOWERS (Rose to Red) BLUE-ISH FLOWERS (Blue to Violet) Baby blue eyes Nemophila menziesii March - June | Annual This flower, a common annual herb and popular garden plant, grows throughout California, with two varieties common in Sonoma County. Var. atomaria, found in the north coast, has white flowers with black dots, often with a faint blue tint or blue veins. Var. menziesii has bright blue flowers with white centers generally dotted with black (pictured). Baby blue eyes are commonly grown as an ornamental flower in native plant or water-conserving gardens. BLUE-ISH FLOWERS (Blue to Violet) Pacific hound’s tongue Cynoglossum grande / Adelinia grande February - August | Perennial This five-lobed flower ranges from pink-purple to deep blue with white centers. It is in the borage family. There are dozens of Cynoglossum species found throughout the world, but C. grande grows only west of the Cascades and Sierra. Hound’s tongue prefers shady areas in woodlands and chaparral. It is similar to the invasive Myosotis sylvatica or forget-me-not.

  • Germination Phenology of Some Great Basin Native Annual Forb Speciespsbi 289 221..230
    Plant Species Biology (2010) 25, 221–230 doi: 10.1111/j.1442-1984.2010.00289.x Germination phenology of some Great Basin native annual forb speciespsbi_289 221..230 TARA A. FORBIS USDA-ARS Exotic and Invasive Weeds Research Unit, 920 Valley Road, Reno, Nevada 89512, USA Abstract Great Basin native plant communities are being replaced by the annual invasive cheat- grass Bromus tectorum. Cheatgrass exhibits a germination syndrome that is characteristic of facultative winter annuals. Although perennials dominate these communities, native annuals are present at many sites. Germination timing is often an important predictor of competitive interactions, and might determine whether the use of annual species in restoration efforts will be successful. I used a laboratory experiment to determine whether a suite of native annuals exhibit winter or spring annual germination syndromes. Seeds of Amsinckia menziesii var. intermedia, Amsinckia tesselata, Blepharipappus scaber, Descurainia pinnata, Eriastrum sparsiflorum, Lappula occidentalis, Mentzelia veatchiana and Plagiobothrys tenellus were tested for dormancy, and for responsiveness to light, cold stratification and dry after-ripening. Species that would be expected to be most similar to cheatgrass are those that have no requirement for cold stratification and are therefore likely to germinate under autumn or winter conditions. The species that clearly met this criterion in this laboratory study were A. menziesii var. intermedia, A. tesselata, D. pinnata and L. occidentalis. In contrast, B. scaber, E. sparsiflorum, M. veatchiana and P. tenellus had their highest germination after cold stratification and would be expected to be spring germinators. Blepharipappus scaber was not coaxed out of dormancy to a great degree by any of the treatments I applied and may exhibit cue-non-responsive dormancy.

  • Leona Heights Wildflowers
    Leona Heights Wildflowers A photographic guide to showy wildflowers of Leona Heights Regional Open Space Sorted by Flower Color Photographs by Wilde Legard Botanist, East Bay Regional Park District Revision: February 23, 2007 More than 2,000 species of native and naturalized plants grow wild in the San Francisco Bay Area. Most are very difficult to identify without the help of good illustrations. This is designed to be a simple, color photo guide to help you identify some of these plants. The selection of showy wildflowers displayed in this guide is by no means complete. The intent is to expand the quality and quantity of photos over time. The revision date is shown on the cover and on the header of each photo page. A comprehensive plant list for this area (including the many species not found in this publication) can be downloaded at the East Bay Regional Park District’s wild plant download page at: http://www.ebparks.org. This guide is published electronically in Adobe Acrobat® format to accommodate these planned updates. You have permission to freely download and distribute, and print this pdf for individual use. You are not allowed to sell the electronic or printed versions. In this version of the guide, only showy wildflowers are included. These wildflowers are sorted first by flower color, then by plant family (similar flower types), and finally by scientific name within each family. Under each photograph are four lines of information, based on the current standard wild plant reference for California: The Jepson Manual: Higher Plants of California, 1993.
