  • Propagation of Colorado Natives at Little Valley©
    224 Combined Proceedings International Plant Propagators’ Society, Volume 58, 2008 Propagation of Colorado Natives at Little Valley © Brian Core Little Valley Wholesale Nursery, 13022 E. 136th Ave., Brighton, Colorado 80601 U.S.A. Email: [email protected] INTRODUCTION Little Valley Wholesale Nursery was established in 1979 with 15 acres of field and container stock and a staff of four people. Over the years, it has expanded to en- compass 141 acres and a peak-season staff of more than 150 people. The plant palette now includes more than 500 taxa of perennials, 275 taxa of shrubs, and over 130 taxa of trees. The area served by Little Valley’s distribution system includes Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona. Little Valley’s motto “The Rocky Mountain Standard” expresses the commitment to be the best wholesale plant dis- tributor in the western region. Native plants have been an important part of Little Valley’s plant mix for many years. Native plants are ideal for low-input sustainable landscapes. The Denver Metro area receives 8–15 inches of rain per year; in contrast, many eastern cities receive 50 or even 60 inches of annual precipitation. Colorado has a rapidly expanding population that threatens to deplete the water supply within a few decades. Many native plants require no supplemental water when established in the landscape; water that is not wasted on bluegrass lawns is water that can be used for human consumption. Native plants also require less frequent fertilizer and pesticide appli- cations; overuse of fertilizer and pesticide can lead to contamination of groundwater supplies with carcinogens.

  • Greg Butler-Bling on the Wing
    Bling on the Wing: 12 Months of Flowers for Hummingbirds Greg Butler, BLA, ATA Email: [email protected] Northwest Flower and Garden Festival 2020 Washington species: Anna’s, Rufous, Calliope, Black-Chinned Anna’s: Year-round resident, our largest hummer (4”). Males have bright red/pink gorget, females iridescent green Rufous: Migrate from Southern U.S./Mexico to Alaska. Smaller than Anna’s, about 3-3.5”. Males tawny orange with orange gorget, females green with orange highlights. Recently sighted as far east as Florida and as far north as New Brunswick. Calliope: Primarily found in Eastern WA, occasionally seen on W. slope of Cacades, rare in Puget lowlands. Our smallest hummer, about 2.5-3”. Migrates from Central Mexico as far North as Central BC and Alberta. Males have magenta gorget, females green on back with peachy chest. Black-chinned: primarily found in E Washington, migration pattern similar to Calliope. About same size as Rufous, a bit more slender. Males have black chin/hood with purple gorget, females dull green on back with white chest. Fun facts: Wings can beat up to 80 x per second; diving speeds of up to 50 mph; horizontal speed up to 35 mph; can fly upside down for short distances. Can go from 35 mph to full stop in 6”; can go into state of torpor in cold weather or when hungry. Best eyesight of any bird; amazing pollinators, flowers don’t have to be tubular or red. Can be fiercely territorial (especially Rufous); “hawking” behavior when defending territory, hunting Diet Primarily nectar, insects, and occasionally sap; females have been observed eating ash during nesting season Mating: Males perform impressive courtship dives; females do all of the work of nest building, incubation, and feeding young.

SHASTA SNOW-WREATH CESA PETITION Today’s Item Information ☐ Action ☒ Consider and potentially act on the petition, DFW’s evaluation report, and comments received to determine whether listing Shasta snow-wreath (Neviusia cliftonii) as a threatened or endangered species under the California Endangered Species Act (CESA) may be warranted. Summary of Previous/Future Actions • Received petition Sep 30, 2019 • FGC transmitted petition to DFW Oct 10, 2019 • Published notice of receipt of petition Nov 22, 2020 • Public receipt of petition Dec 11-12, 2019; Sacramento • Received DFW 90-day evaluation report Feb 21, 2020; Sacramento • Today, determine if petitioned action Apr 15-16, 2020; Teleconference may be warranted Background A petition to list Shasta snow-wreath as endangered under CESA was submitted by Kathleen Roche and the California Native Plant Society on Sep 30, 2019 (Exhibit 1). On Oct 10, 2019, FGC staff transmitted the petition to DFW for review. A notice of receipt of petition was published in the California Regulatory Notice Register on Nov 22, 2019. California Fish and Game Code Section 2073.5 requires that DFW evaluate the petition and submit to FGC a written evaluation with a recommendation, which was received at FGC’s Feb 21, 2020 meeting. The evaluation report (Exhibit 2) delineates each of the categories of information required for a petition, evaluates the sufficiency of the available scientific information for each of the required components, and incorporates additional relevant information that DFW possessed or received during the review period. Today’s agenda item follows the public release and review period of the evaluation report prior to FGC action, as required in Fish and Game Code Section 2074.
