Lilacs in Montana
Plant Guide centimeters long. The flowers are mostly white, lilac, LILAC or purple, pleasantly fragrant in long terminal panicles (Copperrider 1995). The fruiting capsules Syringa vulgaris L. are one to 1.5 centimeters long, with flat winged Plant Symbol = SYVU seeds (Bruggen 1976). Contributed by: USDA NRCS National Plant Data Distribution: Common lilac is native of Europe, Center introduced and naturalized in the United States, escapes from cultivation from New York to North Dakota, south to Georgia and Kansas (Steyermark 1963). For current distribution, please consult the Plant profile page for this species on the PLANTS Web site. Adaptation Lilac is easily grown on most soil types but prefers neutral to slightly acid soil. This species does not tolerate poorly drained soils. It performs best in a warm sunny position. Establishment Propagation by Seed: Lilac seeds should be sown in March, or as soon as they are ripe, in a cold frame. The seeds should be pre-treated for four weeks of warm stratification and then three weeks cold Conservation Trees & Shrubs for Montana stratification to improve germination. Place the USDA, NRCS, Montana State Office seedlings into individual pots when they are large enough to handle. If sufficient growth is made by the Alternative Name summer it is possible to out-plant otherwise grow common lilac seedlings in a cold frame for the first winter and out- plant in late spring the next year. Uses Economic: A green dye is obtained from the flowers Management and the leaves and a yellow-orange dye is obtained Common lilac should be planted in areas with good from the twigs (Grae 1974). -

Phytochemical fruit composition and antioxidant activity were assessed by the Folin–Ciocalteau, spectrophotometric, DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) as well as ABTS (2,20-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) method. Evaluation of antioxidant activity was referred to as the Trolox equivalent. The observed differences in the content of phenolics, flavonoids, vitamin C and antioxidant activity allowed us to select genotypes which, due to the high level of the analyzed compounds, are particularly recommended in everyone’s diet. -

Ecography ECOG-00694 Boulangeat, I., Georges, D., Dentant, C., Bonet, R., Van Es, J., Abdulhak, S., Zimmermann, N. E. and Thuiller, W. 2014. TAnticipating the spatio-temporal response of plant diversity and vegetation structure to climate and land use change in a protected area. – Ecography doi: 10.1111/ecog.00694 Supplementary material Appendix A1: Model and parameters The FATE-HD model with the same parameterization is presented and validated in Boulangeat et al. (in press). a - THE MODEL (A) In each pixel, PFG cohorts are located in height strata. The number of strata and the transition heights are free parameter that can be set according to the vegetation under investigation. The available light in each stratum is calculated according to the total abundance of the PFGs across all the upper strata and then converted to three classes (shade, half-shade, and full high) according to the respective abundance thresholds: 3,000; 7,000; 10,000. Shade tolerance is given as binary parameters for these three classes. Two other PFG specific parameters are used: (1) maximum abundance corresponds to the total shade that a PFG will produce for the lower strata, when its demography is a equilibrium (2) the relative shade of immature versus mature allows weighting the abundance of younger cohort (e.g. for trees) in the calculation of the available light. (B) Each year, the habitat suitability maps with values ranging from 0 to 1 are converted to binary filters according to a threshold randomly drawn from a uniform law. The annual variability in environmental conditions thereby affects all PFGs in the same way, representing “good” and “bad” years for the vegetation. -

Donoghue,2 and Jianhua Li1,4 1Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University, 22 Divinity Ave, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138 U.S.A. 2Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Yale University, P.O. Box 208106, New Haven, Conneticut 06520-8106 U.S.A. 3Current Address: Plant Soil, and Insect Sciences, University of Massachusetts at Amherst, Amherst, Massachusetts 01003 U.S.A. 4Authors for correspondence ([email protected]; [email protected]) Communicating Editor: Lena Struwe Abstract—Recent phylogenetic analyses of the Dipsacales strongly support a Caprifolieae clade within Caprifoliaceae including Leycesteria, Triosteum, Symphoricarpos, and Lonicera. Relationships within Caprifolieae, however, remain quite uncertain, and the monophyly of Lonicera, the most species-rich of the traditional genera, and its subdivisions, need to be evaluated. In this study we used sequences of the ITS region of nuclear ribosomal DNA and five chloroplast non-coding regions (rpoB–trnC spacer, atpB–rbcL spacer, trnS–trnG spacer, petN–psbM spacer, and psbM–trnD spacer) to address these problems. Our results indicate that Heptacodium is sister to Caprifolieae, Triosteum is sister to the remaining genera within the tribe, and Leycesteria and Symphoricarpos form a clade that is sister to a monophyletic Lonicera. Within Lonicera, the major split is between subgenus Caprifolium and subgenus Lonicera. Within subgenus Lonicera, sections Coeloxylosteum, Isoxylosteum, and Nintooa are nested within the paraphyletic section Isika. Section Nintooa may also be non-monophyletic. -

Living Snow Fences
Living Snow Fences Species Matrix for New York State Justin P. Heavey Timothy A. Volk Forest & Natural Resource Management SUNY ESF Syracuse, NY 2012 Living Snow Fences Species Matrix for New York State Living Snow Fences Species Matrix Species selection is an important step in the design of effective and efficient living snow fences. A species matrix assists in the plant selection process for living snow fences by providing a pallete of suitable species, and a summary of relevant plant traits to compare and contrast species. Recent research at SUNY ESF has built on previous research (Tabler, 2003) and identified key plant traits for living snow fences. Twenty-eight species that possess the traits relevant to living snow fences have been identified and included in this plant matrix. These species are tolerant to a variety of roadside conditions across New York State, and possess the traits necessary to achieve adequate snow trapping and snow storage capabilities. Every plant species is unique, and this matrix is therefore intended as a selection tool to compare and contrast a variety of plants for living snow fences within the context of design goals and site conditions. Plant Traits for Living Snow Fences The morphological traits of height and stem density are the two most important factors influencing the function of living snow fences. Mature height should be at least eight feet to achieve adequate snow storage capacity. Stem density should be 40-60% to achieve optimal snow trapping efficiency and drift shape. Deciduous shrubs and evergreen trees are most suitable for expressing these traits in the landscape. -
Landscaping for Season Long Color
JANUARY 2019 HOME HORTICULTURE landscaping for season long color JayDee Gunnell, Horticulture Agent, Cache County Extension Sheriden Hansen, Extension Assistant Professor, Davis County Linden Greenhalgh, Extension Associate Professor, Tooele County Holly Christley, Horticulture Assistant, Tooele County Each season brings with it new colors and emotions. Many homeowners seek help in selecting plant material that will offer season-long interest in the landscape. Different colors can add variety and add interest to the landscape. Plants should add consistency and tie the landscape design together. Harmony in a landscape is often accomplished when the same color schemes are repeated. When planting for color, it is good to remember some general rules. Cool colors, such as shades of green, blue, and soft pastels, blend well together and have a tendency to make an area seem larger in appearance. These colors also suggest calmness or tranquility. Warm colors, such as shades of red, Tulips in early spring. orange, and yellow, jump out visually and act as colorful accents. These colors imply lively and inviting feelings. Complementary colors are those colors that most optimally accentuate each other. Yellow is considered complementary to purple. Red is complementary to green. Orange is complementary to blue. White is one of those universal colors, which complements all colors. There are many different plants which can add seasonal splendor to a landscape. Many plants display an array of flower colors throughout the season. Some plants offer different textures while others put on a spectacular show in the autumn as their colorful leaves proclaim the end of the season. When planting for color, it is important to think of the Butterfly Weed (Asclepias importance of foliage effect along tuberosa) blooms in July and offers Lilacs offer early spring color.
