  • THE ALPINE GARDEN SOCIETY's 60Th SEED LIST 2011-12 Please Read Through These Notes and Also the Notes on the Back O
    WELCOME TO THE ALPINE GARDEN SOCIETY’S 60th SEED LIST 2011-12 Please read through these notes and also the notes on the back of the order forms before completing the forms. The main distribution will begin in December and will continue into the new year. The seeds offered originate from various sources and cannot be guaranteed true to name. Neither The Alpine Garden Society nor any official of the Society can be held responsible for what is supplied. Members are reminded that named cultivars and hybrids cannot be relied upon to come true, and plants raised from seed from cultivars should not be labelled with the names of those cultivars. Seeds of many species are in short supply and we can never have enough to meet all requests. Members who request very rare or popular species must realise that they are likely to be disappointed and are advised to spread their requests throughout a variety of seeds on the list. Surplus seeds are those remaining after all applications for main distribution seeds have been met. Please see the notes on the back of the order form for futher information. On-line ordering will again be offered this year. You will be able to view the seed list, make your selections, order and pay for your seed order on line. We will take care to ensure parity between on line ordering and postal ordering so neither system will get priority. Please go to http://www.alpinegardensociety.net/seed/exchange/ and follow the instructions on the page. Overseas Members: Members outside the UK and the EU are reminded that most countries restrict the import of some species.

  • Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
    Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page. Basal Angiosperms (ANITA grade) Amborellales Amborellaceae, sole family, the earliest branch of flowering plants, a shrub native to New Caledonia – Amborella Nymphaeales Hydatellaceae – aquatics from Australasia, previously classified as a grass Cabombaceae (water shield – Brasenia, fanwort – Cabomba) Nymphaeaceae (water lilies – Nymphaea; pond lilies – Nuphar) Austrobaileyales Schisandraceae (wild sarsaparilla, star vine – Schisandra; Japanese

  • January 2012 ---International Rock Gardener--- January 2012
    International Rock Gardener Number 25 The Scottish Rock Garden Club January 2012 ---International Rock Gardener--- January 2012 We begin the year with some “perennial favourites”: plants with lasting attraction. The late Harold Esslemont was one of the most experienced growers and exhibitors in the SRGC over a great many years and the following article was adapted from The Rock Garden journal of 1969 to showcase some plants that are as popular today as they were over forty years ago. The last cover of 2011 was of a wintry scene in the Scottish Garden of two of the IRG team so we thought we’d share this January sunset for the start of 2012. In his weekly Bulb Log Diary, now in its tenth year, Ian shares his method of taking such photos. Cover picture: January Sunset, Aberdeen. J. Ian Young ---Mountains in the Garden--- My Twelve Favourite Alpines by the late Harold Esslemont M.B.E. (adapted by M.Y.) It was the final meeting of the season of the local group. A postcard announced that two* members had been invited to show and discuss slides of their twelve favourite alpines. It appeared that I was to be one of the speakers. I forget who told me that his list of twelve favourite alpines ran to at least twenty, but I was soon to learn how right he was. My brief was twelve plants, no more, and a decision, however difficult, had to be made. The compiling of such a list is influenced by so many factors that the result may be expected to vary widely among individuals.

  • Androsace Komovensis Sp. Nov., a Long Mistaken Local Endemic from the Southern Balkan Peninsula with Biogeographic Links to the Eastern Alps
    Schönswetter & Schneeweiss • Androsace komovensis sp. nov. TAXON 58 (2) • May 2009: 544–549 Androsace komovensis sp. nov., a long mistaken local endemic from the southern Balkan Peninsula with biogeographic links to the Eastern Alps Peter Schönswetter & Gerald M. Schneeweiss Department of Biogeography and Botanical Garden, University of Vienna, 1030 Vienna, Austria. [email protected] (author for correspondence) In the course of molecular phylogeographical investigations in Androsace sect. Aretia a previously unrecog- nised entity from Crna Gora/Montenegro was identified as a genetically and morphologically clearly separated lineage and is described here as a new species, Androsace komovensis Schönswetter & Schneew. It is restricted to a single high-alpine rock-cliff in the Komovi mountain range in Montenegro. The new species morphologi- cally resembles A. mathildae Levier from the Abruzzo mountains (Italy), but differs in the persistent, dense and regular indumentum of the leaf margin. Molecular phylogenetic data indicate that A. komovensis Schöns- wetter & Schneew. is not closely related to A. mathildae Levier, but instead is sister species to the Eastern Alpine endemic A. hausmanni Leyb. KEYWORDS: Androsace komovensis, Crna Gora/Montenegro, Primulaceae, species nova Spanish mountains and the Carpathians, and one species INTRODUCTION in the French Massif Central. The genus Androsace L. (Primulaceae) comprises ca. In the course of molecular phylogeographical in- 150 species mainly distributed in extra-tropical mountain vestigations covering the European members of /Aretia ranges of the Northern Hemisphere (Mabberley, 2008).
