The period was dominated by partly cloudy days with high relative humidity. Precipitation occurred primarily on June 6 with most areas receiving just under a half inch. More rain is needed as topsoil moisture is short. Tree pollen is still abundant, primarily pine at this time. Pests/Problems: Lecanium scale females have grown into their distinctive hemispherical shape. The female scales are producing eggs and if you pop the scales off a twig a whitish powder of eggs can be seen. Some white oaks with heavy populations are showing symptoms of branch and twig dieback. A couple of small areas of defoliation on oak can still be seen in the upper Cape. The primary culprit appears to be cankerworm but there is also some winter moth damage. Winter moth appears to be done feeding. Other insect pests or damage noted over the period include black turpentine beetle damage on pitch pine, Viburnum leaf beetle defoliation on arrowwood Viburnum, rose slug sawfly larvae on rose, dogwood sawfly larvae on alternate leaf dogwood, elder shoot borer moth damage on elderberry, eriophyid mites on cherry and linden, and the first Asiatic beetle adults have been seen. Disease symptoms or signs observed over the period include sycamore anthracnose, maple anthracnose, brown rot on ornamental cherry, holly leaf spot (also natural leaf drop on holly), Exobasidium gall on Rhododendron, black spot on rose, and red thread on turf. White pine needle disease (other stresses also likely) is causing extensive needle loss on white pine. Weeds in bloom include black medic (Medicago lupulina), cypress spurge (Euphorbia cyparissias), chickweed (Stellaria media), white clover (Trifolium repens), creeping buttercup (Ranunculus repens), and Oriental bittersweet flowers are just about to open. If possible, remove Oriental bittersweet vines and roots before this invasive can offer countless berries to birds who innocently spread it everywhere. Other pests or pest damage seen include slugs on Hosta, rabbits on annuals and lots of dog ticks. Southeast Region (Dighton) General Conditions: Massive yellow clouds of white pine pollen, as well as copious quantities of sticky sap dripping on patio furniture and cars from male strobili, aiming to pollinate receptive female cones, makes one appreciate the evolution of flowering plants even more. It's well to remind frustrated clients that this season too shall pass and that pine sap can be removed with similar solvents. Cottonwood seeds are blowing on the wind, accumulating in now fluffy corners. Hay fields are getting their first mow resulting in the sweet smell of freshly cut fodder in the air. Soils are dusty dry after yet another meager rainfall total. Drought stress from the lack of rainfall can already be noticed on unirrigated turf. The first heat wave will be devastating. Where present, Poa annua already is becoming senescent and turning yellow. Despite the dry soils, humidity has remained high enough that sycamore trees have yet to fully leaf out due to anthracnose. Only the terminal leaves have emerged. The insects and other arthropods are starting to gain in numbers evidenced by the windshield test, although nothing like years ago before the use of insecticides decimated populations. Spicebush swallowtails, black swallowtails, hairstreaks, craneflies, syrphid flies and company are in the garden. Ruby throated hummingbirds can be seen feeding on columbine and catmint. The following plants are among those in flower: Medicado lupulina (black medic), Trifolium repens (white clover), T. pratense (pink clover), Silene latifolia (white campion), Celastrus orbiculatus (Oriental bittersweet), Hypericum perforatum (Saint John's wort), Dianthus deltoides (maiden pinks), Salvia nemorosa (perennial Salvia), Iris germanica (German Iris), I. siberica (Siberian Iris), I. pseudacorus (Yellow Flag), Cornus kousa (Kousa dogwood), Viburnum dentatum (arrowwood), V. plicatum (Japanese snowbell), Rhododendron spp. (Catawba Rhododendron and Delaware Valley white azalea), Chionanthus virginicus (American fringe tree), Cotinus coggygria (smoke bush), Physocarpus opulifolius (common ninebark), Linnaea amabilis, synonym Kolkwitzia amabilis (beauty bush), Weigela florida (Weigela), Deutzia spp. (Deutzia), Rosa spp., R. multiflora (the invasive Asian rambler rose), R.

  • Disease and Insect Resistant Ornamental Plants: Viburnum
    nysipm.cornell.edu 2018 hdl.handle.net/1813/56379 Disease and Insect Resistant Ornamental Plants Mary Thurn, Elizabeth Lamb, and Brian Eshenaur New York State Integrated Pest Management Program, Cornell University VIBURNUM Viburnum pixabay.com Viburnum is a genus of about 150 species of de- ciduous, evergreen and semi-evergreen shrubs or small trees. Widely used in landscape plantings, these versatile plants offer diverse foliage, color- ful fruit and attractive flowers. Viburnums are relatively pest-free, but in some parts of the US the viburnum leaf beetle can be a serious pest in both landscape and natural settings. Potential diseases include bacterial leaf spot and powdery mildew. INSECTS Viburnum Leaf Beetle, Pyrrhalta viburni, is a leaf-feeding insect native to Europe and Asia. In North America, the beetle became established around Ottawa, Canada in the 1970’s and was first detected in the United States in Maine in 1994 and in New York in 1996. It has since spread through much of the northeastern US (15). Reports of viburnum leaf beetle in the Midwest include Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin and Illinois (1) and Washington and British Columbia, Canada in the Pacific Northwest (7). The beetle is host-specific and feeds only on Viburnum, but there are preferences within the genus (6). Species with thick leaves tend to be more resistant and feeding is more likely to occur on plants grown in the shade (17). Feeding by both larvae and adults causes tattered leaves and may result in extensive defoliation – repeated defoliations can kill the plant.

  • Conservation & Open Space Environment
    Conservation & Open Space Environment CONSERVATION & OPEN SPACE ELEMENT INTRODUCTION Element Purpose The purpose of the Conservation & Open Space element is to promote the conservation and public use of natural resources. These planning directives should ensure that West Melbourne’s natural resources are supported and enhanced in balance with development. West Melbourne recently celebrated its 50th year as a Florida community. The character of being a small city is supported by its natural resources and open spaces. While much of the community has been developed, the undeveloped portions of the City west of Interstate 95 continue to act as a buffer between Florida’s agricultural heartland and developed Atlantic coastal communities. West Melbourne is located on the western slope of the Atlantic Coastal Ridge, very near the plateau. Elevations range from approximately 23 feet to approximately 29 feet above the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD). The climate is subtropical, characterized by warm humid summers and dry mild winters. The average annual precipitation is 50.04 inches, mostly occurring in the rainy season from June to October. The climate has allowed tropical plant species to persist under the canopy of temperate zone trees in the hardwood areas. The City’s largest public environmental resource is Erna Nixon Park. The 52-acre park is home to a variety of native animal and vegetation. There is a large private conservation area west of I-95 which is home to wetland flora and fauna. The remainder of the City does not contain notable amounts of natural features which is due in part to the City’s agrarian roots.

  • Maple-Leaf Viburnum (Viburnum Acerifolium)
    Information Sheet – Maple-leaf Viburnum (Viburnum acerifolium) Maple-leaf Viburnum (Viburnum acerifolium) is a low, densely branched shrub that grows to 4-6 feet tall and 3-4 feet wide. This attractive native shrub is often planted as an ornamental due to its bright to dark green, deciduous foliage that turns a colorful purplish-pink in the fall. In addition, showy flat-topped clusters of white flowers in spring are followed by blue-black berries in the late summer and fall. Maple-leaf Viburnum is adaptable to a wide range of light and soil conditions. This adaptability makes it a useful plant in home landscapes that have areas with dry soil and deep shade. This outstanding native shrub is also often planted for its high wildlife value – its berries are eaten by birds and its flowers are nectar sources for bees and butterflies. This plant is also a larval host to several butterfly and moth species, to include the Spring Azure. Care of your shrub or small tree: It is important to get your shrub off to a good start by planting it properly in accordance with the instructions on the reverses of this sheet. After planting, maintain a grass and weed-free area around the base of the young shrub. Use organic mulch around the base of the trees approximately three feet out from the trunk. Pine bark and pine needle mulches are very good, straight wood mulch is not. Avoid the use of non-organic mulches, which can cause the soil around the shrub to stay excessively wet.

Willaman & Martha Haas Valentine Endowed Plant Protection Intern (2016-2017) This paper is posted at ScholarlyCommons. https://repository.upenn.edu/morrisarboretum_internreports/10 For more information, please contact [email protected]. Management of the Viburnum Leaf Beetle at the Morris Arboretum Abstract Pyrrhalta viburni (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), or the viburnum leaf beetle (VLB), is an invasive pest on viburnums in North America, where native species of the plant have little natural resistance. Resistance can be conferred by leaf texture, leaf chemistry, or a wound response that crushes VLB eggs. The beetle does not immediately kill host plants, but repeated defoliation is fatal after several years. Because viburnum is a common forest and landscape plant in the eastern United States, VLB is a serious concern. The Morris Arboretum has a large collection of viburnums, including many native and non-native species. While VLB had already been observed in passing, this project included a thorough baseline survey of VLB damage throughout the Arboretum. Data were collected for the number of twigs infested with VLB, the number of cavities on each twig, and whether a wound response had been produced.
