Kennedy's Country Gardens Jerusalem Sage

Jerusalem Sage* Phlomis fruticosa Plant Height: 3 feet Flower Height: 4 feet Spread: 3 feet Sunlight: Hardiness Zone: 6b Description: An interesting clump forming perennial with dense whorls of bright yellow flowers that rise tall on the stems; silvery gray-green woolly leaves are interesting all season; woody and evergreen in zone 8 to 9, but restarts from the ground in colder climates Jerusalem Sage flowers Photo courtesy of NetPS Plant Finder Ornamental Features Jerusalem Sage features bold spikes of yellow hooded flowers rising above the foliage from late spring to early summer. The flowers are excellent for cutting. Its serrated narrow leaves remain grayish green in color throughout the year. The fruit is not ornamentally significant. Landscape Attributes Jerusalem Sage is an herbaceous evergreen perennial with an upright spreading habit of growth. Its medium texture blends into the garden, but can always be balanced by a couple of finer or coarser plants for an effective composition. This is a relatively low maintenance plant, and is best cut back to the ground in late winter before active growth resumes. Deer don't particularly care for this plant and will usually leave it alone in favor of tastier treats. It has no significant negative characteristics. Jerusalem Sage is recommended for the following landscape applications; - Mass Planting Jerusalem Sage flowers - General Garden Use Photo courtesy of NetPS Plant Finder Planting & Growing Jerusalem Sage will grow to be about 3 feet tall at maturity extending to 4 feet tall with the flowers, with a spread of 3 feet. It grows at a medium rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 10 years. This plant should only be grown in full sunlight. It prefers dry to average moisture levels with very well-drained soil, and will often die in standing water. It is not particular as to soil type or pH. It is somewhat tolerant of urban pollution. This species is not originally from North America. * This is a 'special order' plant - contact store for details.

Phylogeny and Biogeography of the Lamioid Mint Genus Phlomis L
Photograph by Jim Mann Taylor Phylogeny and biogeography of the lamioid mint genus Phlomis L. Cecilie Mathiesen Candidata scientiarum thesis 2006 NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM UNIVERSITY OF OSLO Forord Endelig, etter en noe lengre hovedfagsprosess enn planlagt, sitter jeg her med et ferdig produkt. En stor takk rettes til min veileder, Victor og min medveileder, Charlotte. Dere har vært til stor hjelp gjennom hele prosessen. Dere dyttet meg i gang igjen da jeg slet med motivasjonen etter fødselspermisjonen, det er jeg utrolig glad for. Uvurderlig hjelp har jeg også fått fra Tine, som aldri sa nei til å lese gjennom og komme med konstruktiv kritikk til mine skriblerier. Jan Wesenberg skal også takkes for all hjelp med russisk oversettelse, og Wenche H. Johansen for stor hjelp i et virvar av russiske tidsskrifter på museets bibliotek. Many thanks to Jim Mann Taylor for his hospitality, transport and help during the material sampling in his private Phlomis garden in Gloucester. He has also been a great resource in the processing of the material and his book on Phlomis made things a lot easier for a complete stranger to the genus. Videre vil jeg takke: Kasper, som er grunnen til at denne jobben tok litt lenger tid en planlagt, Mamma og Pappa for at dere alltid stiller opp, Marte og Marianne, mine aller beste venner og Nina, for all forståelse når graviditeten tok mer plass i hodet enn Phlomis og støtte på at mye er viktigere enn hovedfaget. Og selvfølgelig en spesiell takk til Terje, for at du er den du er og for at du er Kaspers pappa.

India *Corresponding Author E-mail: [email protected] Received: 12.09.2018 | Revised: 9.10.2018 | Accepted: 16.10.2018 ABSTRACT The reniformis nematodes of the genus Rotylenchulus (Haplolaimidae: Nematoda) are sedentary semi-endoparasites of numerous crops. There are ten species out of which R. reniformis and R. parvus are important, and three species (R. amanictus, R. clavicadatus, R. leptus) are monophagous: two on monocots and one on Rosids. In general, Rotylenchulus species are capable of feeding from very primitive Magnoliids to plants of advanced category. Preference was distinctly observed towards the plants in Rosids (42.779%) followed by monocots (23.949%) and Asterids (21.755%). The SAI values were also higher for these groups of plants. The study on lineages further revealed intimate affinity to febids (25.594%), followed by commelinids (18.647%), malvids (16.088%), lamiids (11.883%), and campanulids (9.141%). Poales contribution within commelinids was 65.353%. Maximum affinity of Rotylenchulus species was observed by their association with plants from families Poaceae (7), followed by Fabaceae (6), Malvaceae (6), Asteraceae (4), Oleaceae (4), Soanaceae (4) and so on. Key words: Agiosperms, Gymnosperms, APG IV system, Reniform nemtodes, Monocots, Rosids, Asterids INTRODUCTION number of crops, whereas the other eight Plant parasitic nematodes pose a great species are of limited importance.

Jerusalem Sage – Year-Round, Resilient, Reliable Friend
Jerusalem Sage – Year-round, Resilient, Reliable Friend Herbal Remedies from the Judean Hills Jerusalem Sage – Salvia – מַרְוַת יְרוּשָׁלַיִם Hierosolymitana Boiss Printable Version Year-round, Resilient, Reliable Friend My garden teaches me that I’m not in control. From all the flowers, herbs and bushes I purchase, and all the seeds I plant, only some decide to make my garden their home. One such plant is ‘Jerusalem Sage.’ I wish that this referred to King David or to King Solomon, yet I have to accept that Jerusalem sage is an edible perennial herb with long, hairy stems covered with fuzzy, velvet-like, gray-green leaves. In mid-to-late-summer, the stalks yield beautiful, pale burgundy flowers that give off a strong pungent aroma. What now dots every nook and cranny of both my front and backyard, was, more than a decade ago, a gift from America – a small package of Organic Heirloom seeds. Whereas, the Echinacea seeds, from the same gift package, only made it for one season, the Jerusalem sage decided that it had returned from exile to its rightful home. As Dave Ehrlinger, the chief horticulturalist, notes, “True sage has been grown in Israel for thousands of years.” Not as glamorous as Echinacea flowers or as useful as kale – another plant I have not succeeded in making feel welcome – Jerusalem sage is a reliable friend, who is always there for me. It grows year round, even when no other green leaves are to be found anywhere. Although its leaves have a strong, herbaceous flavor, the entire plant is edible and can be used in smoothies, soups, stir- fries, meat dishes or stews.
