    May, 1910 NOTES ON THE NORTHWESTERN CROSSBILL, 93 these lines are a few tear shaped dots of black. In all these sets there is a resem- blance to eggs of the Orchard Oriole. In several eggs there is a faint flush of sub- dued purplish stain. The flight is swift and strong, accomplisht with quick beating of the wings, there being a peculiar, pent-up energy in their movements. They will start from a perch with an almost bullet-like swiftness. Their sociable nature is markt. They even feed together during the nesting season, there seemingly being no ill will among them. The scattered breeding colonies extend far into the wilderness. The past season I located three colonies which were nesting, and they did not vary in the time chosen nor in the selection of a nesting site; always in wild, mountain places, and the nests well hidden in the high branches of-pine trees. The nest-building began about the 10th of July and finisht about the 20th. In their late nesting they resemble the goldfinch which postpones the nesting duties until July and August. One might believe that this was simply a second nesting, but the large flocks do not break up until late in June, no young birds can be found until late in summer, there are no young birds in the summer colo- nies where they nest, and that they do not settle to work until July, has been my observation. I have worn out more than one pair of “mountain” shoes looking for February and March nests in ithis country, but have learned to stay away dur- ing that portion of the year.

    EXPERT TIPS & INFORMATION GIving back ON USING BULK INGREDIENTS ABOUT CHIA SEED Chia seed (Salvia hispanica), sometimes simply called “chia,” is a desert plant native to central and southern Mexico and Guatemala. The tiny black and white seeds were grown by the Aztecs in the 14th century. Today chia is cultivated primarily in South America, western Mexico and the southwestern United States. The seed is often used as a topping on foods or, like fl axseed, mixed by the spoonful into everyday cereals, breads, yogurts and smoothies. Chia seeds are a common ingredient in granola bars and energy bars, thanks to their pleasing nutty fl avor. For vegans and others avoiding eggs, chia seed is often used as an egg substitute. For the equivalent of one egg, combine 1 tablespoon of ground seed with 3 tablespoons of water. The resulting gelatinous substance can then be used in baking bulks av v y and cooking to provide the binding properties of an egg. (This technique works — in the same ratio — with fl axseed too.) We’re committed to providing sustainably sourced bulk products Versatile chia seed has a lot more to offer than the amusement to our customers — products sourced with respect for the of a chia pet — it’s a super seed you can work into your daily environment and the people around the world who produce them. diet with little effort and big benefi ts.

  • Discrimination of Flax Cultivars Based on Visible Diffusion Reflectance Spectra and Colour Parameters of Whole Seeds

(2019): Discrimination of flax cultivars based on visible diffusion reflectance spectra and colour parameters of whole seeds. Czech J. Food Sci., 37: 199–204. Abstract: Discrimination of yellow and brown seeded flax cultivars was made based on visible (Vis) diffusion -re flectance spectra of whole seeds. Hierarchy cluster analysis (HCA) and principal component analysis (PCA) were used for the discrimination. Multivariate analyses of Vis spectra led to satisfactory discrimination of all flax cultivars of this study. The CIE L*a*b* colour parameters were calculated from the diffusion reflectance Vis spectra. The values of L* were in the range of 48.8–53.6 and 62.6–66.0% for brown and yellow seeded cultivars, respectively. Chromatic parameters a* and b* were in the range of 2.8–4.9 and 7.9–16.4%, respectively. A strong linear correlation (R2 = 0.9712) was found between a* and b* parameters for all the flaxseed samples.

  • Blueberry Flax Lily Dianella Tasmanica ‘Variegata’
    Blueberry Flax Lily dianella tasmanica ‘Variegata’ This Florida-Friendly plant is well known for its variegated color and its arching, strap-like foliage. Its foliage is showy with dark green color and contrasting ivory stripes. In the late spring and summer, the plant yields branched stems above the foliage that flower with very small, star-shaped flowers with yellow anthers in the center. These inconspicuous flowers are followed by a more visible, non-edible berry-like fruit that will remain on the plant for while and from which the plant receives its ‘blueberry’ name. The Blueberry Flax Lily is a low vertical-growing perennial ground cover that is native to Australia and can be found in warm climates across the United States, particularly in coastal areas. Indeed, it is a salt tolerant plant and is capable of enduring heat and humidity, but it also does well in the shade. It is susceptible to freeze damage, but normally recovers fine once warmer temperatures set in. It is considered a Florida-Friendly plant needing less water, having fewer pest problems and performing better under water stress then most other types of border grasses.

Linum perenne L. plant symbol = LIPE2 Erosion control/reclamation/greenstripping: All flax species are noted for their value in mixes for erosion control and beautification values. The six week LEWIS FLAX flowering period and showy blue flowers make seedings more aesthetically pleasing and increase Linum lewisii Pursh plant biodiversity. Due to the semi-evergreen nature plant symbol = LILE3 of the species, flax can also be used as a fire suppressant species in green strip plantings.

In general, flax is an annual or short-lived, semi-evergreen perennial forb, sometimes semi-woody at base with attractive flowers ranging from white to blue to yellow to red in color.

According to Cronquist et al. (1997), “the only significant difference between Linum lewisii and the Eurasian Linum perenne appears to be that the former is homostylic, and the latter Alternate Names heterostylic.” Prairie flax Flax plants have many narrow, small, alternate Uses (rarely opposite), simple and entire leaves that are Ethnobotanic: Cultivated flax (Linum usitatissimum) sessile (lacking stalks) on the stems.
