Hardy Fern Foundation Newsletter J-farduFtrn Foundation n ■ Tii/i m r\f ). )J_U zll 11. L Editor Sue Olsen VOLUME 4 NUMBER 1 WINTER 1994 w mmnwmkz m SPECIAL EDITION DIRECTORY OF FERN GARDENS, NURSERIES AND RESERVES IN THE UNITED STATES 1994 The first guide to fem sources, primarily nurseries, was published by Dr. Irving W. Knobloch, Professor Emeritus, Michigan State University, in an article "Ferns and Fem Allies Available in the United States" in The American Botanist VoJ. 41, 1935. Expanding Dr. Knobloch’s idea, this "Directory" lists public and private gardens which feature significant fem collections, nurseries offering ferns for sale, and some selected parks/reserves where rich pteridophyte floras can be seen in the wild. All the information has been provided by the owners, managers, curators or directors of the places listed. Every effort has been made to make the 'Directory" as complete as possible. However, some sources did not respond to the survey or the follow-up reminder. And. there are undoubtedly sources unknown to the editor or her many helpful advisors. The "Directory" does, nevertheless, offer the pteridophile a state-by-state guide to many places where ferns and allied plants may be enjoyed, studied or purchased. The editor would appreciate being notified of additions and alterations which will be included in a future revision of the Directory." A "Guide to Fem Gardens, Collections and Nurseries" also exists for British ferns. It was published in May, 1991 by The British Pteridological Society, c/o Botany Depart¬ ment, Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD, England Edited by: Joan Eiger Gottlieb 2310 Marbury Road Pittsburgh, PA 15221-3670 (412) 242-6738 ssajppv suoip3ij03 uapjeo aoj uapjeo 0|B9 »!«!A sjuaiuiuoQ exei Ajasjnrg uojssjuipv sjno|-| uado JOJ oj apJAUd 9 ujaj oiiqnd SUJ3J »sag (Bpads auiBN | ALABAMA X > * 10 0) Birminaham Bot.

  • Big Plant Nursery Guide to Choosing a Hardy Palm Palms for the UK Garden
    Big Plant Nursery Guide to Choosing a Hardy Palm Palms for the UK Garden Many of us like palms and want to grow hardy palms in our garden. Unfortunately the list of hardy palms suitable for UK gardens is fairly small. It’s also best to buy the largest palm you can afford for increased hardiness and effect, so choosing the right hardy palm is important to make the best purchase. At Big Plant Nursery we have been trialling, growing hardy exotics, hardy and not so hardy palms for over 20 years in our hot in summer but chilly in winter (frost pocket) West Sussex growing site. I’m fairly confident that if you follow our advice you won’t go far wrong. Just bear in mind it’s all about microclimates and using the warmest part of your garden to best advantage. We’ll start with hardy palms that have a realistic chance of not just surviving but growing into magnificent palms. Trachycarpus fortunei, Chusan Palm or Windmill Palm By far the easiest hardy palm growing in most parts of the UK. Trachycarpus fortunei occurs naturally in Northern China where it grows on wooded hill sides able to cope with sun and shade whilst being tolerant of heavy rain and damp soils – Perfect for the UK! Trachycarpus fortunei have big palmate leaves and a hairy fibrous trunk they are head and shoulders above all other hardy palms for growing here in the UK if you want to try a palm this is the one! Amazingly tolerant of most conditions and able to grow quite fast I think every garden should have one (or two) just bear in mind that with such big impressive leaves choose a spot where your chusan will get a little shelter from strong winds… It will grow in exposed positions but always looks better with a little shelter – Invest in one now!! We grow Chusan Palms in our heavy wet (in winter) and dry (summer!) clay.

  • African Palms and Cycads for the Miami-Dade Landscape
    A Guide to Planting an African-American/African Focused Yard in Miami-Dade County: A Selection of African Palms and Cycads Suitable for the Miami-Dade Landscape John McLaughlin1 and Jody Haynes2 1Miami-Dade Extension Office 18710 SW 288 Street Homestead, FL 33030 2Montgomery Botanical Center, 11901 Old Cutler Road, Miami, FL 33156-424 There are a few hardy palms that will grow in those southeastern U.S. states studied by Westmacott1 in his survey of rural African American yards, most being found in milder coastal sections. Only two palms (dwarf palmetto and sabal palm) were found in African-American yards, but these were all in South Carolina. Elsewhere in the survey area, palms were not a significant feature of traditional African-American yards. As residents of south Florida, there is a far greater range of palm species from which to choose so it is not surprising that palms have become such an important feature of the Miami-Dade landscape. Whilst Africa has fewer indigenous palms, as compared to S. America or Asia, some of the most popular palms grown in Miami-Dade are native to Africa. Of these most are from Madagascar2, where 167 different species in 13 genera have been recorded as indigenous, with all but two species endemic. This translates into 99% of all palm species found on Madagascar being native, a situation found nowhere else in the world. The palms selected below are generally available in south Florida, though some may be easier to find in local nurseries that specialize in growing palms. The Following color code is used as a guide to availability: less commonly available plants are shown in light blue, whilst those that should be easiest to find are printed in violet.

Francko, Co-director _______________________________________ Dr. Susan R. Barnum, Reader _______________________________________ Dr. Nancy Smith-Huerta, Reader _______________________________________ Dr. Richard E. Lee Graduate School Representative ABSTRACT TISSUE CULTURE, GENETIC TRANSFORMATION, AND COLD TOLERANCE MECHANISMS IN COLD-HARDY PALMS By Meepa A. Lokuge Palms are a familiar and characteristic feature of tropical landscapes. Some palm species survive temperatures below -6.70C (200 F) and few survive temperatures below -17.70C (00 F). Needle palm, cabbage palm and Chinese windmill palm are very resistant to cold under USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 6 conditions. The first part of this study was undertaken to develop a tissue culture system for the clonal propagation of cold-hardy palms with desired characters and with the ultimate goal of producing a system for genetic transformation. Windmill palm was regenerated from shoot apical meristem tissues via indirect organogenesis, giving rise to viable plants that fully acclimated to greenhouse conditions. With cabbage palm 1.5 µM dicamba was optimal for the induction of somatic embryogenesis from zygotic embryos. The second part of this study was aimed at developing a genetic transformation system for cold-hardy palms. Cabbage palm was selected because it’s widespread use throughout USDA Zone 8 and previous data suggest that with minor improvement in cold tolerance this palm could be grown in even colder areas. Cabbage palm zygotic embryos were successfully transformed with the marker genes gfp and gus using the two most common plant transformation methods, biolistic and Agrobacterium-mediated transformation.

  • Shrubs Shrubs
    ShrubsShrubs forfor LouisianaLouisiana LandscapesLandscapes Shrubs for Louisiana Landscapes Plant Selection Shrubs are commonly sold in the nursery industry in two ways, container grown and ball and burlap. Container-grown plants are available in a wide array of sizes, are easy to transport and available year round. Additionally, container-grown plants don’t need to be planted right away. Ball and burlap (B-and-B) on the other hand, while not as common as they once were, can still be found for sale. B-and-B plants generally have roots that won’t survive bare-root transplanting so growers dig them up, wrap the root-ball in burlap and secure the burlap with twine. This type of plant is generally planted in late fall, winter or early spring. Once they are dug, the time frame for trans- planting is very short unless special precautions are made. Be careful not to drop the root-ball, because these plants are generally heavy and extremely delicate. Damage of this sort can shatter the root-ball, killing the plant. Don’t use trunks of these plants as handles when you are transporting or placing them. The key to a successful landscape depends largely on being highly selective when buying your plants, proper placement in both site selection and preparation, and providing short- and long-term care and maintenance. Size and Form Shrubs have definite growth habits in height, spread and form. Choose plants that will ultimately meet the design requirement. If you have the space for a 3- by-3 foot shrub, but plant one that will mature at 15 feet in all directions, chances are soon you will be dissatisfied with your selection.
