  • Mountains of the Moon
    MOUNTAINS OF THE MOON Some names just resonate with mystery and one such place that does that for me is the Rwenzori or Mountains of the Moon, a spectacular equatorial range that straddles Uganda and the DRC. It has that ‘heart of Africa’ appeal, truly somewhere off the beaten path - and given the effort required to get there it’s no surprise so few tourists come here. Without doubt it is the domain of the serious trekker and climber, the trails penetrate dense mossy forests and climb steeply to breathless heights above the treeline, where the reward is some of the most remarkable alpine flora to be found anywhere. I undertook my own journey with a university friend. We walked first through sweaty sub-tropical forests where the striking orange tubes of Scadoxus cyrtanthiflorus stood out from the dense undergrowth. Heavy bamboo dominated above this and then it was into the subalpine zone where the otherworldly stuff began. Gorgeous broad corymbs of Helichrysum formosissimum appeared, with silvery phyllaries blushed pink - surely the ultimate everlasting daisy. Then we reached the alpine zone. Dendrosenecio adnivalis Interestingly, as with the Espletia of the Scadoxus cyrtanthiflorus northern Andes, the alpine equivalent here also belongs to Asteraceae. The dominant species in the Rwenzori (with similar species in other east African mountains) Dendrosenecio adnivalis, a magnificent plant that formed dense forests in places, clothing whole mountainsides. The most obvious difference between the two genera is Dendrosenecio branch and Espletia do not. I remember seeing a specimen of a Dendrosenecio at Kew, sitting beneath a strong sunlamp.

Although this year has thrown many obstacles our way, we feel that the “show must go on.” In response to the COVID-19 situation, this year will look a little different. For the safety of our members and our customers, this year will be an online pre-order only sale. Our mission stays the same: to support our community’s green spaces, and to educate our community in the areas of gardening, horticulture, conservation, and related topics. GCH members serve as volunteers, and our profits from the Bulb Mart are given back to WELCOME the community in support of our mission. In the last fifteen years, we have given back over $3.5 million in grants to the community! The Garden Club of Houston’s first Plant Sale was held in 1942, on the steps of The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, with plants dug from members’ gardens. Plants propagated from our own members’ yards will be available again this year as well as plants and bulbs sourced from near and far that are unique, interesting, and well suited for area gardens.

  • Newsletter No. 4 Autumn 2005
    The Southern African Bulb Group Newsletter No. 4 Autumn 2005 The Southern African Bulb Group was initiated by a group of enthusiasts on April 4th 2004. The objective of the group is to further the understanding of the cultivation of Southern African bulbs, where `bulbs' is used in the broad sense to encompass bulb-, corm- and tuber- possessing Southern African plants, including `dicots' such as Oxalis. In the first instance the group will be run on an informal basis, with an initial subscription of £5 invited from participants. Committee: Robin Attrill (Membership secretary and Newsletter editor), Margaret Corina (Treasurer), Stefan Rau and Terry Smale Editorial This issue of the newsletter contains a report of the meeting of the group held at Rupert Bowlby's Nursery on April 9th 2005, an article on Crinum moorei by David Corina, information on recent literature of interest to growers of Southern African bulbs, and an updated list of suppliers of seed and bulbs/corms of Southern African geophytes. In addition a balance sheet covering the first year of operation of the group is attached. With respect to the supplier list, please let me know if you are aware of other sources which should be included. As I have previously stated the group welcomes articles, and suggestions, for inclusion in future newsletters. Contributions (hand/typewritten and electronic are acceptable!) are urgently required and should be sent to the newsletter editor at 17 Waterhouse Moor, Harlow, Essex, CM18 6BA (Email [email protected] ) Publication of the next issue is scheduled for December 2005. Report on visit to Rupert Bowlby - Saturday 9 th April 2005 by David Corina About 20 members attended the event, and the Group would like to thank Rupert for his hospitality at the event and for opening his collection to the public gaze.

  • A Molecular Phylogeny of the Genus Scadoxus Raf. (Amaryllidaceae)
    Fireball lilies of Africa: a molecular phylogeny of the genus Scadoxus Raf. (Amaryllidaceae) Kine Hals Bødker Master of Science Thesis Natural History Museum, University of Oslo Centre for Ecological and Evolutionary Synthesis, Department of Biosciences, University of Oslo June 15th 2020 © Kine Hals Bødker 2020 Fireball lilies of Africa: a molecular phylogeny of the genus Scadoxus Raf. (Amaryllidaceae) Kine Hals Bødker http://www.duo.uio.no/ Print: Reprosentralen, University of Oslo II Illustration: Aasne Aarhus, 1976. III IV Acknowledgements It has been an exciting journey working with the most beautiful plant genus of this world. There are many people I would like to thank for being a part of this journey. First and foremost, I want to thank my wonderful supervisors for all their help and support over the past two years. I could not have had a better team. My main supervisor, Charlotte - for your enthusiasm, knowledge, support and the most amazing field trips. In the 1970’s, before I was even born, Inger (and colleagues) worked with Scadoxus, which set the stage for this master thesis. I would like to thank Inger for being my additional supervisor and ultimately giving me this opportunity, and helping me understand more of Scadoxus morphology. Anne – for helping with the analyses, and especially for the incredibly helpful checking of spelling, grammatical errors and also helping me discourse my occasionally overwhelming results. Prof. Clemence Zimudzi and Dr. Tesfaye Awas – for fantastic field work experiences in Zimbabwe and Ethiopia, respectively. I would also like to thank the little kids in Ethiopia who helped us find Scadoxus specimens in places we never would have found without them.
