THE ALPINE GARDEN SOCIETY's 60Th SEED LIST 2011-12 Please Read Through These Notes and Also the Notes on the Back O 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. It is the responsibility of members from overseas to check the laws covering seed importation before ordering to make sure that anything they request is not on their country’s list of banned imports. Failure to do this could cause confiscation and destruction of all the seed within the imported packet at the point of entry to your country. Overseas members should pre-check the list of approved species by contacting their local Ministry of Agriculture. Guidance on restricted species may be found on the following sites: New Zealand: http://www1.maf.govt.nz/cgi-bin/bioindex/bioindex.pl USA: http://www.nargs.org/ USDA regulations do not permit the importation into the USA of any parasitic species, any species of the genus Lathyrus (without treatment), any member of the families Berberidaceae and Rutaceae, nor the seed of any trees or woody species. Wild Collected Seed The initials after the plant name refer to the donor, please refer to the donor pages at the back of the booklet for codes. A species with 2 or more donors is indicated by >2.

  • January 2012 ---International Rock Gardener--- January 2012
    International Rock Gardener Number 25 The Scottish Rock Garden Club January 2012 ---International Rock Gardener--- January 2012 We begin the year with some “perennial favourites”: plants with lasting attraction. The late Harold Esslemont was one of the most experienced growers and exhibitors in the SRGC over a great many years and the following article was adapted from The Rock Garden journal of 1969 to showcase some plants that are as popular today as they were over forty years ago. The last cover of 2011 was of a wintry scene in the Scottish Garden of two of the IRG team so we thought we’d share this January sunset for the start of 2012. In his weekly Bulb Log Diary, now in its tenth year, Ian shares his method of taking such photos. Cover picture: January Sunset, Aberdeen. J. Ian Young ---Mountains in the Garden--- My Twelve Favourite Alpines by the late Harold Esslemont M.B.E. (adapted by M.Y.) It was the final meeting of the season of the local group. A postcard announced that two* members had been invited to show and discuss slides of their twelve favourite alpines. It appeared that I was to be one of the speakers. I forget who told me that his list of twelve favourite alpines ran to at least twenty, but I was soon to learn how right he was. My brief was twelve plants, no more, and a decision, however difficult, had to be made. The compiling of such a list is influenced by so many factors that the result may be expected to vary widely among individuals.

By Wilhelm (Bill) Bischoff / member BC Council of Garden Clubs If you can accept that the island called Santorini in the central Mediterranean, also known as Thira / Tera, is the original Island of Atlantis; if you also can agree that this Island had a terrific volcanic explosion more than 3,000 years ago, than I can share with you an equally fantastic botanical story with you. That today’s Thira is the remnant of an exploded volcano is quite evident when one looks at a map of this region of the Mediterranean. Located as part of the Aegean Islands, just north of Crete, it shows the unmistakable shape of a water filled volcanic caldera with a center-cone island. Scientists have identified volcanic ash taken from the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea, close to the Lebanese coast, as originating from Thira. The time frame of some 3300 years ago also coincides with the beginning of a rather tumultuous time in this part of the ancient world, the end of the “Bronze Age”. The possible cause of that could well have been a natural disaster, in the very heart of the ancient world as we know it. Now that I have your attention and possibly have whetted your curiosity, let me introduce you to one of the small wonders of this very ancient world, the beautiful Cyclamen, all 22 species of them.

Nacional de La Plata, Calle 64 no. 3, 1900 La Plata, Argentina. Alstroemerieae is an exclusively Central and South American tribe belonging to Alstroemeriaceae, which comprises two large genera, Alstroemeria and Bomarea. Alstroemeria has two areas of distribution, mediterranean Chile and central southeastern Brazil. Most Bomarea species grow in forests and hedges in moist areas, however, some species are adapted to dry Andean valleys and high altitudes. Previous leaf anatomical data were obtained from a limited group of species. To assess the value of the anatomical characters for the systematics and their importance as adaptations to diff erent environments, we compared representative species from diff erent geographical areas and habitats. Data regarding leaf anatomy and micromorphology were obtained from light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy and were combined with macromorphology for 27 Alstroemerieae species.

  • Turkish Silk Road Trip Report 2019
    TURKISH SILK ROAD TRIP REPORT 2019 1 Day 1 6 May To Goreme We all arrived from various places to Cappadocia. Day 2 7 May Cappadocia I A fine clear morning revealed the remarkable convoluted landscape of Cappadocia – a blend of towers and smooth-eroded hills, some pink some cream. We met with our guide Gaye and set off for a quieter part of this popular region. Our first stop was near a small church and above this the path led to a fine lookout across the landscape including some amazing chimneys capped with dark hats of denser rock. Indeed, it is the rapid erosion of the various layers of compacted ash that have created this landscape, a legacy of the regions intensely volcanic past. There many Alpine Swifts sweeping overhead and a few interesting flowers with tufts of bluish Trigonella coerulescens, Silene conoidea, Euphorbia sp and big patches of Eruca sativa that were a magnet for the many Painted Ladies on the wing. We moved on to another site with an old monastery that still retained some very old frescoes and painted ceilings as well as a very old Seljuk mosque. Here there was plentiful Hypercoum pseudograndiflorum along the paths. Uta exchanged tips on bean cultivation with a local farmer who spoke a smattering of German before we left. Lunch was in a cherry orchard, thronging with butterflies as well as by chance, being next to a nesting Long-eared Owl which peered down at us the whole time we were there. Then it was onto see a special plant, crossing the undulating steppes and wheat fields to an innocuous-looking hill.
