05 in the Front Line 21-09-2010 11:36 Am Page 1
05 in the front line 21-09-2010 11:36 am Page 1 In the front line Judy Harry Plants that grow in the front line perform many functions. They have to provide the first line of defence against careless invasions by mowers, feet, even livestock (fig. 1) They form at one and the same time the start and the finish of the border, leading the eye to statuesque and imposing plants at the rear, or allowing the eye to come to a comfortable stop at the front. Which all sounds rather prosaic, not to say functional. One of the pleasures of last year’s gardening for me was being able to see some of my ‘front liners’ with fresh eyes, not just as the useful plants they undoubtedly are, but also as the star performers they can be in their own right. It all started with the flowering of Jovellana violacea (fig. 2). Having bought it as a very small plant on the 2002 Autumn Weekend, I planted it where I could keep an eye on it. Each spring, in my ignorance, I cut it back to tidy it up, assuming that it would produce flowers later in the summer: exactly the wrong thing to do. This interesting little shrublet flowers on the previous year’s wood in early summer, and Addison © Twink with time will form a thicket of upright stems, bearing pale, whitish-mauve pouched flowers with spotted throats. My poor plant, of course, never had mature enough stems to produce so much as a spot, let alone whole pouches. -
H3.3 Macaronesian Inland Cliff
European Red List of Habitats - Screes Habitat Group H3.3 Macaronesian inland cliff Summary The perennial vegetation of crevices and ledges of cliff faces in Macaronesia away from coastal salt-spray is of very diverse character - some, for example, dominated by succulents, others rich in ferns and bryophytes characteristic of shaded situations - and it includes several hundreds of taxa endemic to the archipelagoes. The main threats are mountaineering and rock climbing, outdoor sports and leisure activities, and construction of infrastructures such as roads and motorways. Synthesis There is no evidence of significant past reductions, either in the last 50 years or historically, and also future prospects are good, as no serious threats are envisaged, besides touristic/leisure activities and putative faulty environmental impact assessments that may overlook this habitat as valuable. Reduction in quantity, reduction in quality and criteria of geographic distribution yield the Least Concern (LC) category. In spite of the LC category, conservation policy and management should restrict to the maximum any threat to or reduction of the habitat, as it has a very high conservation value, because of high endemism of species and communities with many local and regional variaties. Overall Category & Criteria EU 28 EU 28+ Red List Category Red List Criteria Red List Category Red List Criteria Least Concern - Least Concern - Sub-habitat types that may require further examination Four general subtypes can be distinguished based on species composition and different ecological conditions. However, at present, no data are available to carry out an individual assessment of each of them. In the future, if detailed plot sampling has been carried out, such an evaluation may be possible. -

Several reference photos courtesy of “fcbs.org” September meeting from the Secretary’s desk It was a bit of a change to have Adam in the Chair while Len was trying to get home from Melbourne after a somewhat sorrowful visit. He was not in mourning from the Crows loss. Margaret and I were giving the main talk on a visit to northern NSW and these days when we do such visits we are often asked for advice on names, never on culture. I wonder why? As such the meeting was on a querying note, where members had to have their brains in gear. -

WELCOME TO THE ALPINE GARDEN SOCIETY’S 60th SEED LIST 2011-12 Please read through these notes and also the notes on the back of the order forms before completing the forms. The main distribution will begin in December and will continue into the new year. The seeds offered originate from various sources and cannot be guaranteed true to name. Neither The Alpine Garden Society nor any official of the Society can be held responsible for what is supplied. Members are reminded that named cultivars and hybrids cannot be relied upon to come true, and plants raised from seed from cultivars should not be labelled with the names of those cultivars. Seeds of many species are in short supply and we can never have enough to meet all requests. Members who request very rare or popular species must realise that they are likely to be disappointed and are advised to spread their requests throughout a variety of seeds on the list. Surplus seeds are those remaining after all applications for main distribution seeds have been met. Please see the notes on the back of the order form for futher information. On-line ordering will again be offered this year. You will be able to view the seed list, make your selections, order and pay for your seed order on line. We will take care to ensure parity between on line ordering and postal ordering so neither system will get priority. Please go to http://www.alpinegardensociety.net/seed/exchange/ and follow the instructions on the page. Overseas Members: Members outside the UK and the EU are reminded that most countries restrict the import of some species. -

Chromatid Abnormalities in Meiosis: a Brief Review and a Case Study in the Genus Agave (Asparagales, Asparagaceae)
Chapter 10 Chromatid Abnormalities in Meiosis: A Brief Review and a Case Study in the Genus Agave (Asparagales, Asparagaceae) Benjamín Rodríguez‐Garay Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.68974 Abstract The genus Agave is distributed in the tropical and subtropical areas of the world and represents a large group of succulent plants, with about 200 taxa from 136 species, and its center of origin is probably limited to Mexico. It is divided into two subgenera: Littaea and Agave based on the architecture of the inflorescence; the subgenus Littaea has a spicate or racemose inflorescence, while plants of the subgenus Agave have a paniculate inflorescence with flowers in umbellate clusters on lateral branches. As the main conclusion of this study, a hypothesis rises from the described observations: frying pan‐shaped chromosomes are formed by sister chromatid exchanges and a premature kinetochore movement in prophase II, which are meiotic aberrations that exist in these phylogenetic distant species, Agave stricta and A. angustifolia since ancient times in their evolution, and this may be due to genes that are prone to act under diverse kinds of environmental stress. Keywords: tequila, mescal, chromatid cohesion, centromere, inversion heterorozygosity, kinetochore 1.

Aeschynanthus Pulcher Lipstick Plant LIPSTICK PLANT
The Gardener’s Resource 435 W. Glenside Ave. Since 1943 Glenside, PA 19038 215-887-7500 Aeschynanthus pulcher Lipstick Plant LIPSTICK PLANT Lipstick plants are easy indoor flowering houseplants that when given the right amount of light and water, they produce numerous red or orange small tubular flowers that resemble a tube of lipstick. Not only are the flowers colorful, the leaves can be light green, dark green or green and maroon. Light: The Lipstick vine will not bloom without adequate light. They require very bright, indirect light. Avoid placing this plant in full shade or full sun. Direct sun will burn the leaves. The plant needs bright light for a portion of the day, but not all day long. Water: If you allow the top 25% of the soil to dry out before watering, this plant will flower more frequently and more abundant. If the leaves appear soft and shriveled, give it more water. These plants will also lose green leaves TIPS: when over-watered. • Lipstick plants like warm temperatures between 75-85°F. : Fertilizer every other week in the Fertilizing • Prefers high humidity, but will do well in Spring and Summer and only monthly in the basic household humidity too. Fall and Winter with a houseplant food high in • Trim the long vines to prevent the plant phosphorous. Always dilute the fertilizer to ½ from becoming thin and straggly. the recommended strength. • Lipstick Plants are Non-Poisonous. • Keep a lipstick plant in a small pot will help it produce more flowers. When put into a large container, instead of producing flowers it grows more leaves. -
