Q. I'd like to know if there are any vines I can plant soon that could be blooming by early June? Several answers are below. A. I would prefer either a clamantis vine or a morning glory. A. Morning glories may be your answer. BUT once you have them, you will always have them. They reseed like crazy!! A. Eccremocarpus scaber Flame Grow 10 to 15 feet in a season. Perrenial and will flower in the first season planted from seed. Blooms June to September. Evergreen perrenial. Flower is yellow orange and red A. You can "plant" almost any ANNUAL vine which might appeal to you (some listed below). HOWEVER, and this is very important as I know from experience the hard way, i.e. losing a vine in May to the dreaded water overload, i.e. rain or a late season cold snap. Here's how you want to do this: Find the annual vine you'd like to grow. Once you get it home from the garden center, transplant it into a 1/2 to 1 gallon sized container and grow it in there until about the 3rd week of May or when the temps are averaging about 65 to 70 degrees daily. Place a small trellis in the container so the vine can start climbing. Try keeping it out of the wind, but in good light from the sun (a small greenhouse atmosphere would be ideal). It will continue to grow in the container and may even throw off some flowers. Transplant when the conditions are right into a sunny area with a trellis for it to climb up (about 4 to 5 feet in height). Black-Eyed Susan Vine Cardinal Climber Hyacinth Bean Scarlet Runner Bean Spanish Flag Morning Glory (avoid Moon Flower as it usually will not put out flowers until late summer) - Even morning glory is doubtful if you want early summer flowers, tho' it may bloom if it is confined to the small 1/2 to 1 gallon container until late May. Cup and Saucer Vine .

While all non-native alternatives have been screened against several databases to ensure they are not considered weedy, predicting future behaviour is not an exact science! The only way to be 100% sure is to use ecosourced native species. Published by: Weedbusters © 2010 ISBN: 978-0-9582844-7-9 Get rid of a weed, plant me instead! Many of the weedy species that are invading and damaging our natural areas are ornamental plants that have ‘jumped the fence’ from gardens and gone wild. It costs councils, government departments and private landowners millions of dollars, and volunteers and community groups thousands of unpaid hours, to control these weeds every year. This Plant Me Instead booklet profiles the environmental weeds of greatest concern to those in your region who work and volunteer in local parks and reserves, national parks, bush remnants, wetlands and coastal areas.

Conservationists are far from able to assist all species under threat, if only for lack of funding. This places a premium on priorities: how can we support the most species at the least cost? One way is to identify `biodiversity hotspots' where exceptional concentrations of endemic species are undergoing exceptional loss of habitat. As many as 44% of all species of vascular plants and 35% of all species in four vertebrate groups are con®ned to 25 hotspots comprising only 1.4% of the land surface of the Earth. This opens the way for a `silver bullet' strategy on the part of conservation planners, focusing on these hotspots in proportion to their share of the world's species at risk. The number of species threatened with extinction far outstrips populations and even ecological processes are not important mani- available conservation resources, and the situation looks set to festations of biodiversity, but they do not belong in this assessment. become rapidly worse1±4.

But there are many ornamental alliums that deserve a hearty welcome in your perennial gardens. Alliums are plants of exquisite beauty in both flower and leaf, with tough constitutions. These easy-to-grow bulbs come in a broad palette of colors, heights, bloom times and flower forms. They make excellent cut flowers for fresh or dried bouquets. Even crowded gardens can accommodate a few alliums because they don't take up much space. What's more, alliums are relatively resistant to deer, voles, chipmunks, and rabbits Ordinary Onions They're Not There are more than 700 different types of alliums in the world. It wasn't until the late 1800s that this vast group of plants started to intrigue plant lovers. Russian botanists began collecting some of the spectacular alliums from Central Asia and introducing them to avid horticulturists through the Imperial Botanical Garden in St. Petersburg.
