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. -

Cyclamen Notes by Wilhelm (Bill) Bischoff Flowers of Atlantis?

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. -

Foliar Anatomy and Micromorphology of Southern South American Alstroemeriaceae: Alstroemerieae, and Its Systematic Implications in Alstroemeria

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. -
