SALT TOLERANT PLANTS Recommended for Pender County Landscapes
North Carolina Cooperative Extension NC STATE UNIVERSITY SALT TOLERANT PLANTS Recommended for Pender County Landscapes Pender County Cooperative Extension Urban Horticulture Leaflet 14 Coastal Challenges Plants growing at the beach are subjected to environmental conditions much different than those planted further inland. Factors such as blowing sand, poor soils, high temperatures, and excessive drainage all influence how well plants perform in coastal landscapes, though the most significant effect on growth is salt spray. Most plants will not tolerate salt accumulating on their foliage, making plant selection for beachfront land- scapes particularly challenging. Salt Spray Salt spray is created when waves break on the beach, throwing tiny droplets of salty water into the air. On-shore breezes blow this salt laden air landward where it comes in contact with plant foliage. The amount of salt spray plants receive varies depending on their proximity to the beachfront, creating different vegetation zones as one gets further away from the beachfront. The most salt-tolerant species surviving in the frontal dune area. As distance away from the ocean increases, the level of salt spray decreases, allowing plants with less salt tolerance to survive. Natural Protection The impact of salt spray on plants can be lessened by physically blocking salt laden winds. This occurs naturally in the maritime forest, where beachfront plants protect landward species by creating a layer of foliage that blocks salt spray. It is easy to see this effect on the ocean side of maritime forest plants, which are “sheared” by salt spray, causing them to grow at a slant away from the oceanfront. -

The present work continues with an older theme, with works that have enjoyed a very good international appreciation. The species subject to the observations in this paper was Pittospora tobira, much appreciated for its distinctive decorative qualities. Plants, obtained by knockout, were fertilized with three different products: Osmocote, Almagerol and Atonic. The elements of growth and development of plants were studied and recorded dynamically at the macroscopic and microscopic level. For all the observation series and the monitored elements, the Osmocote fertilizer is strongly influenced. This has led to significant increases in the quantitative aspects of plant organs observed both at macroscopic and microscopic levels. Regarding the qualitative aspects of growth, it was found that Almagerol and Atonic products determined the highest values, especially at microscopic level. Key words: Pittosporum, fertilizer, growing, plants, observations. INTRODUCTION Christine L. Wiese et al.

Eryngium Yuccifolium A. Michaux Rattlesnake Master (Eryngium Synchaetum)
A. Michaux Eryngium yuccifolium Rattlesnake Master (Eryngium synchaetum) Other Common Names: Button Eryngo, Button Snakeroot. Family: Apiaceae (Umbelliferae). Cold Hardiness: With proper provenances, this species grows in USDA hardiness zones 4 to 9. Foliage: Alternate, simple, yucca-like sword-shapted blue-green foliage clasps stout stems; basal leaves to 30 long, but leaves on flower stalks much shorter; strap-like ½ to 1½ wide, margins toothed on terminal portions becoming spiny at the base; the specific epithet refers to the yucca-like foliage. Flower: Tiny individual fragrant flowers in ¾diameter ball-like clusters in open flattened clusters atop tall flower stalks in late spring to summer; clusters subtended by holly or thistle-leaf like bracts; individual flowers are numerous and tightly packed; greenish white to white flowers have five-petals and two filiform styles. Fruit: Seed heads eventually turn brown and are retained on the plant into winter until stems die back. Stem / Bark: Stems — stout, stiffly erect, somewhat swollen at the nodes; glabrous, green to bluish green; Buds — small; green to blue-green; Bark — not applicable; basal leaves and floral stalks from semi-woody base. Habit: Erect, 3 to 4 (6) tall, sparsely branched herbaceous perennials from a woody base, with the vegetative tissues sort of reminiscent of a cross between an Iris and a Yucca; over time a cluster of foliage forms at the base; the plant's texture is attractively coarse. Cultural Requirements: Sunny sites with moist well drained soils are required; drainage is particularly important as plants are grown in mesic locations, less so in more arid regions; overly fertile soils result in lodging and plants benefit from being surrounded by shorter plants that can lend support to the tall flower stalks; transplant from containers or seed in place as taproots hinder successful transplant; prickly leaves may hinder maintenance activities around the plants. -
Seeking Cold-Hardy Camellias
Seeking Cold-Hardy Camellias Anthony S. Aiello or those of us in more northern climates, ANIA trips to southern or West Coast gardens in LV early spring often result in admiration (and F ENNSY a little envy) for the range and beauty of camellias P OF (Camellia spp.) that can be grown in Zones 7 or SITY warmer. As with many plants, we always want R E those that are either too tender or too boreal for V NI U our zone; those plants well suited for a particular E H T climate are all too quickly considered prosaic OF and it is the struggling arcane plants that most ETUM of us cherish as gardeners. It was the tantalizing R possibility of finding more cold-hardy camellias BO AR that 25 years ago led to a plant hunting expedi- IS RR tion and the resulting multi-year evaluations of O a group of Camellia japonica. M Domestic and international plant explora- tion, and subsequent evaluation of plant acqui- sitions have been important missions of the Morris Arboretum in recent decades. Since the late 1970s, staff of the Morris Arboretum have participated in 20 plant collecting trips, includ- ing trips to South Korea, China, the Caucasus Mountains, and regions within the United Map of areas visited on the 1984 Korea Northwest col- States. On these expeditions, seed is collected lecting expedition. and returned to the Morris Arboretum for prop- agation.

English Holly Ilex Aquifolium L
English holly Ilex aquifolium L. Synonyms: none Other common names: none Family: Aquifoliaceae Invasiveness Rank: 67 The invasiveness rank is calculated based on a species’ ecological impacts, biological attributes, distribution, and response to control measures. The ranks are scaled from 0 to 100, with 0 representing a plant that poses no threat to native ecosystems and 100 representing a plant that poses a major threat to native ecosystems. Description English holly is a small, evergreen shrub or tree with numerous, short, erect to spreading branches. It commonly grows 2 to 5 m tall, but it can grow up to 17 m tall in its native range. Young twigs are green and develop grey bark with age. Leaves are alternate, petiolated, ovate to oblong, entire or lobed, leathery, and 2.5 to 6 cm long with glossy, dark green upper surfaces and spine-like teeth. Male and female flowers are usually found on separate plants. Flowers are 6 mm in diameter, white, and borne in few-flowered, axillary clusters. Fruits are 7 to 12 mm in diameter, red, smooth, and clustered with 2 to 8 single-seeded nutlets each. Nutlets are convex and ridged (DiTomaso and Healy Fruit and foliage of Ilex aquifolium L. Photo by F. Vincentz. 2007, eFloras 2008, Klinkenberg 2010). Ecological Impact Impact on community composition, structure, and interactions: English holly invades undisturbed forests in the Pacific Northwest (Polster 2004, King County 2010, Klinkenberg 2010), and it has escaped cultivation and become invasive in moist, coastal forests in California (DiTomaso and Healy 2007). This species is considered one of the ten most invasive garden plants for sale in Tasmania. -
