  • Water-Wise Gardening Guide
    Water-Wise Gardening Guide Water... every drop is precious! Watering Habits A water-wise landscape can be beautiful and it can help you save water too. Do you want to be a wiser water miser? You don’t have to pull out all your plants and start over. Lets begin by examining the way you water. It may surprise you to learn that it is not necessary to water every day. In fact, watering 2-3 times per week may be enough. The key is to water deeply, allowing water to penetrate through the soil and reach plant roots. Your Irrigation System Turn on your sprinkler system and observe. Does it water your plants or the sidewalk? Does water flow into the gutter? If so, you are applying water faster than your soil can absorb it. Turn on your drip irrigation system and observe. Are the emitters clogged? Is water flowing out of the pipe where your emitter should be? Check your emitters weekly, use a filter, and use a pressure regulator on your system. Check Your Soil For lawns–after watering, take a screwdriver and probe it into the soil. If you can push it 6 inches deep, you have watered enough. If you can’t, set your timer to water longer . Then wait a few days and check it again. When the screwdriver can’t go in as deep, it is time to water. For trees and shrubs-after watering, the soil should be wet 2-3 feet deep. If you can easily dig with a shovel, you have watered enough.

NHESP is responsible for the conservation and protection of hundreds of species that are not hunted, fished, trapped, or commercially harvested in the state. The Program's highest priority is protecting the 176 species of vertebrate and invertebrate animals and 259 species of native plants that are officially listed as Endangered, Threatened or of Special Concern in Massachusetts. Endangered species conservation in Massachusetts depends on you! A major source of funding for the protection of rare and endangered species comes from voluntary donations on state income tax forms.

  • Conservation & Open Space Environment
    Conservation & Open Space Environment CONSERVATION & OPEN SPACE ELEMENT INTRODUCTION Element Purpose The purpose of the Conservation & Open Space element is to promote the conservation and public use of natural resources. These planning directives should ensure that West Melbourne’s natural resources are supported and enhanced in balance with development. West Melbourne recently celebrated its 50th year as a Florida community. The character of being a small city is supported by its natural resources and open spaces. While much of the community has been developed, the undeveloped portions of the City west of Interstate 95 continue to act as a buffer between Florida’s agricultural heartland and developed Atlantic coastal communities. West Melbourne is located on the western slope of the Atlantic Coastal Ridge, very near the plateau. Elevations range from approximately 23 feet to approximately 29 feet above the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD). The climate is subtropical, characterized by warm humid summers and dry mild winters. The average annual precipitation is 50.04 inches, mostly occurring in the rainy season from June to October. The climate has allowed tropical plant species to persist under the canopy of temperate zone trees in the hardwood areas. The City’s largest public environmental resource is Erna Nixon Park. The 52-acre park is home to a variety of native animal and vegetation. There is a large private conservation area west of I-95 which is home to wetland flora and fauna. The remainder of the City does not contain notable amounts of natural features which is due in part to the City’s agrarian roots.

  • Callicarpa Dichotoma 'Duet'
    U.S. National Arboretum Plant Introduction Callicarpa dichotoma 'Duet' The U.S. National Arboretum, in cooperation with Tennessee Technologi- cal University, presents 'Duet', a beautyberry with stable variegated foliage. In light shade or full sun, its lovely green and yellow leaves brighten the landscape throughout the summer season. Ease of propagation and low maintenance add to its symphony of charms. 'Duet' stars as a solo planting or as a mixed border or hedge, add- ing exciting contrast to your garden palette. Floral and Nursery Plants Research Unit U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, 3501 New York Ave., N.E., Washington, DC 20002 'Duet' Beautyberry Botanical Name: Callicarpa dichotoma 'Duet' (NA 72235; PI 651521) Family Verbenaceae Hardiness: USDA Zones 5-8 Development: A variegated sport of Callicarpa dichotoma 'Albifructus' was discov- ered at Tennessee Technological University in 2000 by Dr. Gary Bach- man and Mr. W. Edgar Davis. It was transferred to Dr. Sandra Reed for testing and evaluation in 2002. 'Duet' was released jointly by the U.S. National Arboretum and Tennessee Technological University on November 9, 2006. The cultivar name ‘Duet’ was registered in 2007 with the International Cultivar Registration Authority for unassigned genera. Significance: 'Duet' is the first stable variegated beautyberry. It was selected for its variegated foliage and tolerance to full sun. Like other Callicarpa, its disease and insect tolerant foliage make it an ideal plant for a low maintenance landscape. Description: Height and Width: 6 feet tall and 6.5 feet wide in 4 years. Habit: Deciduous, rounded shrub. Foliage: Medium green with distinct yellow margins.

  • Fossil Evidence of Initial Radiation of Cercidiphyllaceae L
    УДК 561.46:551.763 Палеоботаника, 2018, Т. 9, C. 54—75 https://doi.org/10.31111/palaeobotany/2018.9.54 Palaeobotany, 2018, Vol. 9, P. 54—75 FOSSIL EVIDENCE OF INITIAL RADIATION OF CERCIDIPHYLLACEAE L. B. Golovneva, A. A. Zolina Komarov Botanical Institute RAS, St. Petersburg, [email protected] Abstract. Cercidiphyllaceae-like leaves and fruits from the Lower Cretaceous deposits of Northeastern Asia were restudied. In the result one species of Jenkinsella fruits and fi ve species of Trochodendroides leaves were recognized, including Trochodendroides potomacensis (Ward) Bell, T. buorensis Golovneva, T. sittensis Golovneva, sp. nov., T. vachrameeviana (Iljinskaja) Golovneva, comb. nov., and T. denticulata (Budantsev et Kiritchkova) Golovneva, comb. nov. Two new combinations and one new species are published. These plants had very small leaves and probably were shrubs. Fruits of Nyssidium orientale Samylina from the Barremian-Aptian Starosuchan Formation (Primorye, Russia) have no follicular characters as Jenkinsella fruits. Their affi nity, not only to Cercidiphyllum-like plants, but to angiosperms in general, is doubtful. Leaves and fruits of Cercidiphyllum sujfunense Krassilov from the lower-middle Albian Galenki Formation (Primorye) also can not be assigned to Cercidiphyllaceae. Leaves have pinnate, brochidodromous venation and are comparable with those of Asiatifolium elegans Sun, Guo et Zheng, which were recorded from the Frentsevka Formation of the Partizansk coal basin, Primorye, Russia, and from the Chengzihe Formation, Northeastern China. Thus, the fi rst reliable records of the genus Trochodendroides appear in the early-middle Albian. The relationship of these leaves with Cercidiphyllaceae is confi rmed by fi nds of associated fruits Jenkinsella fi la- tovii and by signifi cant diversity of Trochodendroides in the Late Albian-Cenomanian.
