    Iris for the Home Gardener A Rainbow of Colors in Many Shapes and Sizes Bob Lyons FEW PLANTS HAVE AS MUCH HISTORY and affection among gardeners than iris. In Greek mythology, Iris is the personification of the rainbow and messenger of the Gods, and indeed, Iris appear in many magical colors—a large and diverse genus. Some have large showy flowers, others more I. ‘Black Gamecock’ understated; some grow in clumps, others spread; some prefer I. ensata ‘Angelic Choir’ it dry, others are more partial to moist, even wet conditions; and some grow from bulbs, while others return each year from rhizomes just beneath the soil surface. How does one tell them apart and make the right choice for a home garden? Fortunately, horticulturists and iris enthusiasts have developed a system of organization to make sense out of the vast world of irises. Three groups that account for more than 75% of the commercial iris market today are the Bearded Iris, Siberian Iris, and Japanese Iris. Each group recognizes the best of the best with prestigious national awards, noted in the descriptions that follow. The Dykes Medal is awarded to the finest iris of any class.

Jean Witt noted that the Siberian parent was a yellow 40 chromosome Siberian seedling, closer in form and color to I. forrestii than to I. wilsonii. The SIGNA Checklist states that the Siberian parent was I. wilsonii. Jean reviewed her notes, and said this is incorrect, it was a forrestii seedling.

Sf. P.Movila 3, L11, III/3, Iasi, Romania Abstract The sword lily Gladiolus imbricatus L. is a clonal plant covering Central and Eastern Europe, the Mediterranean, Caucasia and West Siberia. The aforementioned species is included in numerous national Red Books or Lists due to the progressive decrease of stands. The present paper reviews the factors threatening the occurrence and condition of Gladiolus imbricatus populations in natural localities. The largest threat is connected with transformation of meadows and expansion of urban areas. Keywords: Sword lily; Natural localities; Population abundance; Threatened species; Molinion. Introduction Progressive anthropopressure is leading to huge changes in the natural environment, which are recognised at various levels of its organisation: they are both global and also locally recognised by changes in the areas covered by particular types of ecosystems, extinction of species and expansion or invasion of new species for a given area.

  • Iris Sibirica and Others Iris Albicans Known As Cemetery
    Iris Sibirica and others Iris Albicans Known as Cemetery Iris as is planted on Muslim cemeteries. Two different species use this name; the commoner is just a white form of Iris germanica, widespread in the Mediterranean. This is widely available in the horticultural trade under the name of albicans, but it is not true to name. True Iris albicans which we are offering here occurs only in Arabia and Yemen. It is some 60cm tall, with greyish leaves and one to three, strongly and sweetly scented, 9cm flowers. The petals are pure, bone- white. The bracts are pale green. (The commoner interloper is found across the Mediterranean basin and is not entitled to the name, which continues in use however. The wrongly named albicans, has brown, papery bracts, and off-white flowers). Our stock was first found near Sana’a, Yemen and is thriving here, outside, in a sunny, raised bed. Iris Sibirica and others Iris chrysographes Black Form Clumps of narrow, iris-like foliage. Tall sprays of darkest violet to almost black velvety flowers, Jun-Sept. Ht 40cm. Moist, well drained soil. Part shade. Deepest Purple which is virtually indistinguishable from black. Moist soil. Ht. 50cm Iris chrysographes Dykes (William Rickatson Dykes, 1911, China); Section Limniris, Series Sibericae; 14-18" (35-45 cm), B7D; Flowers dark reddish violet with gold streaks in the signal area giving it its name (golden writing); Collected by E.

  • SIBERIAN IRISES Don Witton
    SIBERIAN IRISES Don Witton hen we had a vote, on our 20th Anniversary, to find the South Pennine Group’s favourite perennial, the iris came out top. I’m not surprised, as there are a wealth of different forms Wand I’ve been told that it is possible to have an iris in flower every month of the year. They have very beautiful flowers. They consist of upright petals in the centre of the flower, which are often called standards. These are surrounded on the outside by three large, colourful sepals that grow outwards or down, called falls. The base of the fall, which may be a different colour or have attractive veining, is known as the signal. I’m not an expert on all forms of iris; I struggle to grow the bulbous winter-flowering reticulata varieties, and I have never grown the large, summer-flowering, bearded iris as I’m told they need space for the sun to bake the surface-growing rhizomes. I don’t do space in my garden! But the type of iris I like best, and can grow well, is the Siberian iris, and there are plenty to choose from. Iris sibirica, which comes from Europe and west Asia, likes a moisture-retentive soil, grows up to one metre tall, and has long, tapering, grass-like foliage, never broader than one centimetre. It has thinner rhizomes than the bearded iris and they grow downwards into the ground, giving plants a standard ‘clumping perennial’ look. Although my garden dries out in the summer, these iris perform well for me in sun or part-shade, and I have acquired some excellent plants over the years.

T Issued February, 1929 PLANT MATERIAL INTRODUCED BY THE OFFICE OF FOREIGN PUNT INTRODUCTION, BUREAU OF PLANT INDUSTRY, APRIL 1 TO JUNE 30, 1926 (NOS. 66699 TO 67836) CONTENTS Pag* Introductory statement - 1< Inventory - 3 Index of common and scientific names— .-._. „. ,. — 49 INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT agricultural explorers were carrying on their investigations in foreign lands during the three-month period represented by this eighty-seventh inventory. David Fairchild, in company with P. H. Dorsett, made an extended tour along the northern coast of Sumatra and also spent some time in Java and Ceylon. Their itinerary included the Sibolangit Botanic Garden, near Medan, Sumatra, and the Hakgala Botanic Garden, Newara Eliya, Ceylon. The material collected came from these botanic gardens, from the markets of the native villages visited, and from the wild. It consisted for the most part of fruit-bearing plants, ornamentals, and leguminous plants of possible value as cover crops for the warmer parts of the United States. Breeders of small fruits will be interested in the numerous species of Rubus (Nos. 67592 to 67604; 67728 to 67740) obtained mostly in Sumatra. Sev- eral species of Ficus (Nos. 67557 to 67570; 67696 to 67705) from Sumatra will be tested in southern Florida, where already a number of these wild figs have proved popular as shade trees. F. A. McClure continued to work in the general vicinity of Can- ton, China, collecting plant material largely from the native markets of the neighboring villages.

  • Low Genetic Variation in Subpopulations of an Endangered Clonal Plant Iris Sibirica in Southern Poland

Bot. Fennici 45: 186–194. The spatial genetic structure in three subpopulations of the endangered clonal plant Iris sibirica from southern Poland was investigated. The subpopulations occurred in differ- ent habitats, i.e. in a Molinietum caeruleae community, a Phragmites australis patch and in a willow brushwood. Using 13 enzymatic systems, sixteen loci were evaluated. The very low genetic diversity (P = 0%–18.7%, A = 1.0%–1.19%, HO = 0.000–0.009) observed within the subpopulations is probably due to lack of recruitment, habitat fragmentation and/or historical causes. Five distinct multilocus genotypes, detected from 148 collected samples in the subpopulations, supported this observation. This fact illustrated that only clonal growth could maintain the present low genetic variation through the domination of a single or a few clones within these sites. Moderate genetic differentiation (FST = 0.077, P < 0.001) that varies strongly between pairs of subpopu- lations, was observed, thereby suggesting substantial gene flow between populations.
