  • Indoor Plants Or Houseplants
    Visit us on the Web: www.gardeninghelp.org Indoor Plants or Houseplants Over the past twenty years houseplants have grown in popularity. Offered in a wide variety of sizes, shapes, colors and textures, houseplants beautify our homes and help soften our environment. They have been scientifically proven to improve our health by lowering blood pressure and removing pollutants from the air we breathe. When selecting a houseplant, choose reputable suppliers who specialize in growing houseplants. Get off to a good start by thoroughly examining each plant. Watch for brown edges and spindly growth with elongated stems and large gaps between new leaves. Inspect leaves and stem junctions for signs of insect or disease problems. Check any support stakes to make sure they are not hiding broken stems or branches. Finally, make sure the plant is placed in an area that suits its optimal requirements for light, temperature and humidity. Where to Place Your House Plants With the exception of the very darkest areas, you can always find a houseplant with growth requirements to match the environmental conditions in your home. The most important factors are light intensity and duration. The best way to determine the intensity of light at a window exposure area is to measure it with a light meter. A light meter measures light in units called foot-candles. One foot-candle is the amount of light from a candle spread over a square foot of surface area. Plants that prefer low light may produce dull, lifeless-looking leaves when exposed to bright light. Bright light can also cause leaf spots or brown-tipped scorched margins.

Because of limited taxon and character sampling in previous studies, intergeneric phylogenetic relationships within this family have been poorly resolved. We conducted a molecular phylogenetic study based on four plastid loci (atpB-rbcL, rbcL, rps16, trnL-trnF) from 36 ingroup taxa, representing all ten recognized Cannabaceae genera, and six related taxa as outgroups. The molecular results strongly supported this expanded family to be a monophyletic group. All genera were monophyletic except for Trema, which was paraphyletic with respect to Parasponia. The Aphananthe clade was sister to all other Cannabaceae, and the other genera formed a strongly supported clade further resolved into a Lozanella clade, a Gironniera clade, and a trichotomy formed by the remaining genera.

  • Pilea Cadierei F
    Pilea cadierei F. Gagnepain & A. Guillaumin Aluminum Plant Other Common Names: Watermelon Pilea. Family: Urticaceae. Cold Hardiness: Plants are grown outdoors in USDA plant hardiness zones 10 (9) to 11. Foliage: Evergreen, opposite, simple, 2O to 3O long elliptic to obovate leaves have nearly entire to slightly scalloped or crenate margins, rounded to obtuse bases, and acute to acuminate tips; the glossy blades are mottled white, silver (aluminum colored), and green above; the underside of new leaves are rusty red as they initially unfold; venation is palmate with three main veins running the length of the leaf; tiny whitish linear calcium car- bonate secretions (cystoliths) form on the leaves; veins are green with mottling appearing principally between the veins; short stout petioles are yellow-green, sometimes with a reddish flush, and flattened to slightly con- cave above. Flower: The small loose axillary cymes of very small individual flowers are not ornamentally important. Fruit: The tiny achenes are not ornamental. Stem / Bark: Stems — succulent dark green stems with brown lenticels have pairs of leaves perpendicular to the next pair above and below; Buds — foliose, red-green; Bark — not applicable. Habit: Aluminum Plant is an erect herbaceous perennial which can quickly grow to a height of 12O to 18O, howev- er the most common selections in cultivation mature at a shorter height of half this size; it quickly forms a groundcover by rooting where branches touch the soil; the overall texture is medium to medium-coarse. Cultural Requirements: Aluminum Plant can be easily grown in warm climates, or as a seasonal annual, in most locations in which moderate shade, moist well drained soils, and sufficient high quality irrigation water are available; better fertility increases foliage growth which is the whole point of growing this species; a location with protection from winter freeze and wind will improve chances of plants returning from the roots out- doors in marginal USDA zone 9 locations.

  • PEST ALERT Pest Alert Created-November-2018 Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Division of Plant Industry
    FDACS-P-01916 PEST ALERT Pest Alert created-November-2018 Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Division of Plant Industry First Report of the Pilea Aphid (Myzus fataunae Shinji) in the Western Hemisphere Katherine E. O. Fairbanks, Susan E. Halbert; Bureau of Entomology, Nematology and Plant Pathology [email protected] or 1-888-397-1517 INTRODUCTION: On August 22, 2018, from Longwood, Seminole County, Florida, Jesse Krok (DPI) collected a sample of aluminum plant (Pilea cadeirei Gagnep. & Guill.) infested with all life stages of the aphid Myzus fataunae Shinji 1924 (after Takahashi 1965). Myzus fataunae is native to Japan and Korea; this represents the first record of the species in the Western Hemisphere. HOSTS: The species was described originally from Fatoua (Moraceae) (Shinji 1924), though subsequent collections have been from members of the Urticaceae: aluminum plant, Pilea cadierei Gagnep. & Guill.; Canadian or Japanese clearweed, Pilea pumila (hamaoi) (L.) A. Gray; and other ornamental Pilea, Boehmeria and Parietaria species (Takahashi 1965, Miyazaki 1971, Blackman & Eastop 2018). SURVEY: A hand lens is necessary to survey for M. fataunae. Other aphids may be present on the host and potential host plants, but the target will stand out by its small size and distinct bicoloration. Myzus fataunae appears to feed on all above- ground parts of the plant, but favors new growth and petioles. Cut potentially infested plant parts and place them in a vial of alcohol. Alternatively, separate foliage from roots (to prevent soil particles from obscuring aphids) and beat it against the side of a shallow white tray; then, tap the plant material over the tray using a pencil.

  • <I>Acanthaceae</I> and Its Effect on Leaf Surface Anatomy
    Blumea 65, 2021: 224–232 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/blumea RESEARCH ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.3767/blumea.2021.65.03.07 Distribution of cystoliths in the leaves of Acanthaceae and its effect on leaf surface anatomy N.H. Gabel1, R.R. Wise1,*, G.K. Rogers2 Key words Abstract Cystoliths are large outgrowths of cell wall material and calcium carbonate with a silicon-containing stalk found in the leaves, stems and roots of only a handful of plant families. Each cystolith is contained within a cell Acanthaceae called a lithocyst. In leaves, lithocysts may be found in the mesophyll or the epidermis. A study by Koch et al. (2009) calcium carbonate reported unique, indented features on the surface of superamphiphilic Ruellia devosiana (Acanthaceae) leaves cystolith which the authors named ‘channel cells’. We report herein that such ‘channel cells’ in the Acanthaceae are actu- leaf epidermal impression ally lithocysts containing fully formed cystoliths in which only a portion of the lithocyst is exposed at the epidermis, lithocyst forming a leaf epidermal impression. Intact leaves and isolated cystoliths from 28 Acanthaceae species (five in the non-cystolith clade and 23 in the cystolith clade) were examined using light and scanning electron microscopy and X-ray microanalysis. All 23 members of the cystolith clade examined contained cystoliths within lithocysts, but not all showed leaf epidermal impressions. In four species, the lithocysts were in the leaf mesophyll, did not contact the leaf surface, and did not participate in leaf epidermal impression formation. The remaining 19 species had lithocysts in the epidermis and possessed leaf epidermal impressions of differing sizes, depths and morphologies.
