  • Camellia Sinensis • Use: Almost Everyone Drinks Tea Without Really
    Camellia sinensis Use: Almost everyone drinks tea without really thinking about it, not re- alizing that the leaves themselves are actually from a well known garden plant, the Camellia. Camellia sinensis var sinensis originates from China where it naturally grows on moist mountain slopes in fertile acidic soils. Yes you can harvest the leaves to make a refreshing cup of tea. These plants were grown using organic practices. Exposure: Prefers sheltered site, part sunny or medium shade, and any well drained neutral/acid soil. Extreme summer heat may cause leaf burn; needs some shade if planted near a white house due to reflection of sun. Growth: Moderate growing to 8-10’ tall and 6-8’ wide. Can be kept as short as 4-5’ tall for easy harvesting. Hardiness: Zone 7-10; Shrub Foliage: Evergreen, glossy. You can make both green tea or black tea the dif- ference is in how you dry the leaves. Green tea is dried right after harvesting, while black tea is crushed and allowed to oxidize. What's most exciting about those leaves, is that you can pick them and make your own tea. Flower: It blooms in late fall and winter, white flowers illuminating the sleepy You'll have a great conversation–starter with winter landscape. You can even surprise your dinner guests with fresh floral visitors, and the coolest homemade present. tablescapes. Prune only right after blooms fade if you want flowers every year. .

  • Taming the Wild Stewartia©
    1 Boland-Tim-2019B-Taming-Stewartia Taming the Wild Stewartia© Timothy M. Boland and Todd J. Rounsaville Polly Hill Arboretum, 809 State Road, West Tisbury, Massachusetts 02575, USA [email protected] Keywords: Asexual propagation, native trees, plant collections, seeds, Stewartia SUMMARY The Polly Hill Arboretum (PHA) began working with native stewartia in 1967. Our founder, Polly Hill, was devoted to growing trees from seed. In 2006, the Polly Hill Arboretum was recognized as the Nationally Accredited Collection holder for stewartia. This status has guided our collection development, particularly on focused seed expeditions, which began in 2007. The PHA has been successful growing both species from seed, however, overwintering survival and transplanting of juvenile plants has proved more challenging. New insights into winter storage of seedlings is beginning to shed light on this problem. Experimentation with overwintering rooted cuttings has revealed that plants have preferred temperature and chilling requirements. These new overwintering protocols have thus far yielded positive results. Recent work with tissue culture has also shown promising results with both species. Future work includes grafting superior clones of our native stewartia onto Asiatic species in an effort to overcome the problematic issues of overwintering, transplantability, and better resistance to soil borne pathogens. Our Plant Collections Network (PCN) development plan outlines our next phase work with stewartia over the upcoming several years. The results of this work will be shared in future years as we continue to bring these exceptional small flowering trees into commercial production. 2 INTRODUCTION The commitment to building Polly Hill Arboretum’s (PHA) stewartia collection is based on our founder Polly Hill’s history with the genus and our own desire to encourage the cultivation of these superb small-flowering trees in home gardens.

  • Delvaux Opens a New Flagship in Beijing
    DELVAUX OPENS A NEW FLAGSHIP IN BEIJING Delvaux continues its strategy of international expansion and strengthens its presence in China by opening a new boutique in Beijing. Situated in the exclusive, new-expanded China World Mall, one of the first luxury shopping centres of Beijing, it is located in the prosperous Chaoyang District. As in Brussels, Paris, London, Milan, New York or Rome, every Delvaux boutique is different from another. The boutique interior has been decorated with a pale gold metal effect, while images of the iconic Grand Place in Brussels grace the walls of the VIP room. Exotic leather pieces are beautifully showcased on a decorative black glass display and flanked by the distinctive 1960’s Angolo Armchairs by Italian designer Corrado Corradi Dell’acqua. Sense of history and contemporary aesthetics merge together to create an inimitable character imbued with Belgitude. For this brand new address, Delvaux Chairman and CEO Jean-Marc Loubier, with the support of the Milanese architectural studio Vudafieri Saverino Partners, has developed an exceptional boutique façade. Delvaux’s signature white wooden panelling has been enriched with illuminated gold metal stripes, giving a surprising warmth to the outside walls. Delvaux China World boutique will be the first Delvaux store to offer onsite personalisation, a service which allows clients to personalise purchased items by adding their initials to them. Clients can choose from two exclusive Delvaux fonts, including one which has been specially developed with Delvaux’s signature crown for each letter. Available in different sizes, clients have a multitude of choices for customising their leather designs with their own personal style and fantasy.

  • Camel/A Sinensis L. (Cultivated Tea) and Its Wild Relatives Based on Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA and Organelle-Specific STS
    Heredity 78(1997)603—611 Received 11 July 1996 An assessment of genetic diversity among Camel/a sinensis L. (cultivated tea) and its wild relatives based on randomly amplified polymorphic DNA and organelle-specific STS FRANCIS N. WACHIRA, WAYNE POWELL & ROBBIE WAUGH* Department of Cell and Mo/ecu/ar Genetics, Scottish Crop Research Institute, lnvergowrie, Dundee DD2 5DA, Scotland, U.K. Membersof the genus Camellia interbreed relatively freely and several natural species hybrids exist. Species introgression into the cultivated germplasm of tea, Camellia sinensis L. (0. Kuntz), from related Camellia species has been postulated, and it is thought that teas currently under cultivation are not archetypal varieties. Randomly amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs) and organelle-specific polymerase chain reactions were used to establish the affin- ities among cultivated tea and its wild relatives. The measures of similarity obtained indicated that RAPDs were taxonomically informative in Came/ha, and the species relationships revealed were generally consistent with those obtained using morphological, compatibility and terpenoid affinities. Species-specific RAPD products and products potentially diagnostic of introgressive hybridization into the cultivated gene pool were identified. The organellar genomes were remarkably conserved, with polymorphism detected in only one of four noncoding regions in the chioroplast and mitochondrial genomes. Keywords: Camelliaspp., gene introgression,phenetics, randomly amplified polymorphic DNA, similarity.

  • The Making of a Delvaux Bag: a Legacy of Artisanal Craftsmanship
    The making of a Delvaux bag: A legacy of artisanal craftsmanship Delvaux, inventor of the handbag If Delvaux is renowned and celebrated for the quality of its creations, it is in large part thanks to the meticulous, skilled craftsmanship that is at the heart of the company’s legacy and strategy. Founded in 1829 and official supplier to Belgium’s royal family since 1883, Delvaux was the first leather maker to file patents for handbags, as early as 1908. More than 3,000 handbag designs are recorded in Le Livre d’Or, including timeless and iconic pieces which are constantly reinvented, such as the Brillant (1958), the Mutin (1962), the Tempête (1967), the Pin (1972) or the Madame (1977). Exceptional savoir-faire At Delvaux, the making of all its products is entrusted to artisans possessing a rare level of expertise. With passion and precision, these skilled craftspeople are dedicated to la maison’s heritage which is continually reaffirmed with the creation of the finest contemporary classics—genuine works of art. Specialized in handling fine leathers,la maison’s artisans find fertile ground for expressing their expertise: they work with hides coming from the best French and Italian tanneries. These selected hides are reworked and assembled in Delvaux’s European ateliers. Selected according to the strictest criteria, rare leathers such as alligator, galuchat, ostrich, lizard and python are a Delvaux specialty. Only the highest quality skins are chosen as the foundation for crafting unique and precious designs. A unique site Entering the Arsenal in Brussels—the historic building that houses Delvaux—one has a sense of being immersed in a singular world.

This deal, still known today as “the contract of the BELGIUM AND THE century” not only brought money and employment to the sector, but more importantly, the latest technology and AEROSPACE INDUSTRY know-how. The number of fighter jets bought by Belgium exceeded that of any other country at that moment, except for the United States. In total, 1,811 fighters were sold in this batch. 1.1 Belgium’s long history in the aeronautics industry This was good news for the Belgian industry, since there was Belgium’s first involvement in the aeronautics sector was an agreement between General Dynamics and the European related to military contracts in the twenties.

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. Characterization of incompatible and compatible Camellia-Ciborinia camelliae plant-pathogen interactions A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Plant Biology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand Matthew Denton-Giles 2014 Abstract Many Camellia species and cultivars are susceptible to infection by the host-specific fungal phytopathogen Ciborinia camelliae L. M. Kohn (Sclerotiniaceae). This necrotrophic pathogen specifically infects floral tissue resulting in rapid development of host-cell death and premature flower fall. C. camelliae is considered to be the causal agent of ‘Camellia flower blight’ and is an economically significant pest of both the Camellia floriculture and Camellia oil seed industries. This study sought to identify molecular components that contribute to incompatible and compatible interactions between C. camelliae and Camellia petal tissue. Microscopic analyses of incompatible C. camelliae-Camellia lutchuensis interactions revealed several hallmarks of induced plant resistance, including papillae formation, H2O2 accumulation, and localized cell death. Extension of resistance analyses to an additional 39 Camellia spp. identified variable levels of resistance within the Camellia genus, with Camellia lutchuensis, Camellia transnokoensis and Camellia yuhsienensis exhibiting the strongest resistance phenotypes. Collectively, Camellia species of section Theopsis showed the highest levels of incompatibility. Based on this observation, a total of 18 Camellia interspecific hybrids with section Theopsis species in their parentage were tested for resistance to C.
