For decorative purposes it is eminently satisfactory, sought out and beloved by all men, as is amply proved by ‘goldenrod weddings’ and by the numerous jars, pitchers, water cans and bean pots filled with it that decorate suburban's stoops. Mabel Osgood Wright- 1901 Writer, Photographer, and Founder of CT Audubon Society Growing along our roadsides, filling vacant fields and along forest edges, the seventy-seven species of goldenrod across North America, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico make Solidago a truly American genus. There is not a single state devoid of at least one native goldenrod species, and many have multiple species growing within their boundaries. There are, in addition, a few species native to South America and 6 or 7 in Eurasia (Laphitz and Semple, 2015). Identifying species can be a challenge Within a 28 page identification Key, the genus Solidago includes an additional 5 Keys to navigate when attempting an identification—a daunting task. For example: Herbs usually rhizomatus (when short forming tufts of stems and when long often forming extensive colonies), stems erect to arching, solid. Leaves alternate, cauline, often also basal...Heads few- to many- flowered, in corymbs [often flat-topped, as in S. rigida. Ed.] or panicles. Flowers radiate and discoid, rays pistillate, yellow or white, disc flowers perfect, yellow. Involucres cylindric or, when many-flowered, campanulate, with imbricate bracts (overlapping or layered). [Weakley, 2015] Adding to the confusion are two genera of plants commonly known as goldenrod, Euthamia and Oligoneuron. A short discussion of these genera appears on page 23, giving an indication of the difficulties of identifying plants known as goldenrod. Panicles Imbricate bracts 5 Selection Criteria for a Notable Native Herb™ To bring attention to the vast selection of herbs which trace their origins to North America, The Herb Society of America’s Native Herb Conservation Committee selects a genus or species each year. Criteria for selection include usefulness (food, flavoring, beverage, medicine, fragrance, industrial, and household) whether past or present, availability, and range. At times, availability takes a back seat to the interest of study across the range of our membership. To adjust for the possibility of limited availability, an attempt is made to alternate with more widely accessible herbs with a broader range in alternate years. As a widespread genus, Solidago meets many of the criteria for selection. Its uses include nearly all of those listed, primarily medicinal uses. States in which one or more Solidago species grow naturally are shaded in green. Some Solidago species have a limited native range. Solidago albopilosa E.L. Braun, whitehair goldenrod, occurs only in three contiguous counties (Powell, Wolfe, and Menifee) in eastern Kentucky and is Federally listed as Threatened. Others (S. altissima, S. canadensis, S. gigantea, S. hispida, S. missouriensis, S. nemoralis, S. simplex, S. speciosa, and S. ulmifolia) reach across more than half of the Lower 48. This one, likely S. canadensis, wins the prize for sheer moxie, clinging to a rock at Niagara Falls, NY. It was spotted and photographed by Karen O’Brien. 6 State Flowers/Wildflowers/Herbs The following five states have awarded particular distinction to a species of goldenrod. Delaware: Adopted June 24, 1996, Sweet Golden Rod ( Solidago odora ) was named Delaware's State Herb. Members of the International Herb Growers and Marketers Association of Delaware suggested that the herb Solidago odora, commonly known as Sweet Golden Rod, because of its beautiful golden blossoms, would be especially appropriate as the designated herb. Kentucky: Solidago gigantea was named the state flower for Kentucky in 1926 and is used on the state flag where it encircles the state seal. Nebraska: Goldenrod was named the official state flower in Nebraska in 1895, identified then as S. serotina, which is now S. gigantea. South Carolina: Designated S. altissima as the state wildflower in 2003. Alabama: Schoolchildren had it right, but the ladies of a garden club lobbied to remove the children’s choice and replace it with something they found more pleasing: Goldenrod was once the state flower of Alabama but was ousted by camellia (Camellia japonica) in 1959. According to the Director of the Alabama Department of Archives and History school children had chosen goldenrod because of its ability to grow almost anywhere and its brightening of the autumn season. It was made the official state flower in 1927 but women in Butler County thought it weed-like and a wildflower so it was replaced. In 1999, Alabama named Oak Leaf Hydrangea as the State Wildflower.

Karen O’Brien. 7 Species of Note Solidago altissima is the tallest of the goldenrods, topping out at six feet or more. It grows in all states except Alaska, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, Nevada, Utah, and Puerto Rico. It makes a great structural statement at the back of a wildflower garden, but within two years displays its aggressive habit. The stoloniferous plants send runners just above or below the soil, forming large colonies. It is here recommended for use in large meadows that can handle a growing population. Solidago bicolor, silverrod or white goldenrod, is the only one with white flowers. From a bit of a distance, the flowers may appear yellowish, but on close inspection you will see that the petals are white and it is the stamens that are yellow. The plant usually has a single stem and does not form dense clumps as do most goldenrods. It grows in the eastern part of the country. Solidago gigantea is a runner-up for tallest, also reaching six feet in good soil. Solidago odora is a sweet, anise-scented plant. The leaves are fragrant when crushed and have been used to create beverages, and in medicines to make them taste better. It has been explored for use in the perfume industry. Solidago nemoralis, gray goldenrod, can reach nearly 24” tall, but in lean soil reaches only 6”, giving it recognition one of the smallest of the genus. Solidago bicolor. Kathy Schlosser 8 Solidago (S. caesia here) in the Fall garden serves as an accent for the mauve, purple, burgundy, red, and gold of seasonal flowers or as a stand-alone focal point.

  • Bee-Friendly Flowers: Aster
    Bee-Friendly Flowers: Aster Like fireworks to celebrate the coming of fall, the vibrant pinks, purples, and whites of the star flowers burst into bloom just as summer flowers fade. They are ubiquitous, lighting up meadows, woodlands, river bottoms, salt marshes, sand dunes, roadsides, and waste places. There are many native species of asters in North America, but it’s hard to put a precise number on them. The problem is that asters used to be classified with their own genus, but recent strides in DNA analysis have made scientists rethink where to put them. Plants that used to be lumped into the genus Aster are now split into Symphiotrichum, Eurybia, Solidago, and Machaeranthera just to name a few. Not all taxonomists are onboard with the change, so many botanical New England aster sources list more than one name for the same plant. Despite the confusion about what to call them, the variety of asters is enormous. Hybridization between species frequently occurs in the wild and there are a plethora of human-created hybrids and cultivars. Some have clouds of tiny flowers and some have blossoms as large as daisies. What they all have in common is that each aster flower is a composite of numerous disc and ray florets, which collectively give the appearance of a single large flower. The center holds the disc florets, which are tubular, house the nectar, and are usually yellow, orange, or brownish in color. Those near the bullseye location have both stamens and pistils and can provide pollen to visiting insects. The outer discs are all females and only have pistils to receive pollen.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

    Literature Cited Robert W. Kiger, Editor This is a consolidated list of all works cited in volumes 19, 20, and 21, whether as selected references, in text, or in nomenclatural contexts. In citations of articles, both here and in the taxonomic treatments, and also in nomenclatural citations, the titles of serials are rendered in the forms recommended in G. D. R. Bridson and E. R. Smith (1991). When those forms are abbre- viated, as most are, cross references to the corresponding full serial titles are interpolated here alphabetically by abbreviated form. In nomenclatural citations (only), book titles are rendered in the abbreviated forms recommended in F. A. Stafleu and R. S. Cowan (1976–1988) and F. A. Stafleu and E. A. Mennega (1992+). Here, those abbreviated forms are indicated parenthetically following the full citations of the corresponding works, and cross references to the full citations are interpolated in the list alphabetically by abbreviated form. Two or more works published in the same year by the same author or group of coauthors will be distinguished uniquely and consistently throughout all volumes of Flora of North America by lower-case letters (b, c, d, ...) suffixed to the date for the second and subsequent works in the set. The suffixes are assigned in order of editorial encounter and do not reflect chronological sequence of publication. The first work by any particular author or group from any given year carries the implicit date suffix “a”; thus, the sequence of explicit suffixes begins with “b”. Works missing from any suffixed sequence here are ones cited elsewhere in the Flora that are not pertinent in these volumes.
