  • December 2010 ---International Rock Gardener
    International Rock Gardener Number 12 + Index The Scottish Rock Garden Club December 2010 ---International Rock Gardener--- December 2010 With this issue IRG completes its first year in existence – we hope you have enjoyed our efforts. The IRG Team thanks you for your words of advice and encouragement and invites you to submit ideas, articles and photographs for future editions. We in the IRG Team are greatly indebted to a former SRGC President, T. Glassford Sprunt for his preparation of an Index for the 12 issues of IRG for 2010, which is appended to this edition. A reminder that you may make any feedback in the Forum of the SRGC. The Forum is, like the main website of the SRGC, available to all to read. To make a post, of text or photos, a simple process of registration is all that is required. The Forum is also a huge resource of information and photographs of thousands of plants and places. It has a search facility to help you find what you are looking for. Currently there are over 170 thousand posts in around 5300 topics! In this season where many gardeners in the northern hemisphere are experiencing cold and snowy weather it seems appropriate to have this photo of Paeonia ‘Joseph Rock’ and the Karlik Church, taken by ZZ, as the IRG cover picture. Wherever you are in the world, may you find peace and happiness now and in the year to come. ---Gardens in the Mountains--- Lallemantia canescens by Prague PEPiPEDIA Lallemantia canescens (syn. Dracocephalum canescens) grows in Turkey, Armenia and Iran at altitudes of 1500- 3300 m.

  • Sensitive and Rare Plant Species Inventory in the Salt River and Wyoming Ranges, Bridger-Teton National Forest
    Sensitive and Rare Plant Species Inventory in the Salt River and Wyoming Ranges, Bridger-Teton National Forest Prepared for Bridger-Teton National Forest P.O. Box 1888 Jackson, WY 83001 by Bonnie Heidel Wyoming Natural Diversity Database University of Wyoming Dept 3381, 1000 E. University Avenue University of Wyoming Laramie, WY 21 February 2012 Cooperative Agreement No. 07-CS-11040300-019 ABSTRACT Three sensitive and two other Wyoming species of concern were inventoried in the Wyoming and Salt River Ranges at over 20 locations. The results provided a significant set of trend data for Payson’s milkvetch (Astragalus paysonii), expanded the known distribution of Robbin’s milkvetch (Astragalus robbinsii var. minor), and relocated and expanded the local distributions of three calciphilic species at select sites as a springboard for expanded surveys. Results to date are presented with the rest of species’ information for sensitive species program reference. This report is submitted as an interim report representing the format of a final report. Tentative priorities for 2012 work include new Payson’s milkvetch surveys in major recent wildfires, and expanded Rockcress draba (Draba globosa) surveys, both intended to fill key gaps in status information that contribute to maintenance of sensitive plant resources and information on the Forest. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS All 2011 field surveys of Payson’s milkvetch (Astragalus paysonii) were conducted by Klara Varga. These and the rest of 2011 surveys built on the 2010 work of Hollis Marriott and the earlier work of she and Walter Fertig as lead botanists of Wyoming Natural Diversity Database. This project was initially coordinated by Faith Ryan (Bridger-Teton National Forest), with the current coordination and consultation of Gary Hanvey and Tyler Johnson.

  • Landscape Plants Rated by Deer Resistance
    E271 Bulletin For a comprehensive list of our publications visit www.rce.rutgers.edu Landscape Plants Rated by Deer Resistance Pedro Perdomo, Morris County Agricultural Agent Peter Nitzsche, Morris County Agricultural Agent David Drake, Ph.D., Extension Specialist in Wildlife Management The following is a list of landscape plants rated according to their resistance to deer damage. The list was compiled with input from nursery and landscape professionals, Cooperative Extension personnel, and Master Gardeners in Northern N.J. Realizing that no plant is deer proof, plants in the Rarely Damaged, and Seldom Rarely Damaged categories would be best for landscapes prone to deer damage. Plants Occasionally Severely Damaged and Frequently Severely Damaged are often preferred by deer and should only be planted with additional protection such as the use of fencing, repellents, etc. Success of any of these plants in the landscape will depend on local deer populations and weather conditions.
