BURIED TREASURE Summer 2019 Rannveig Wallis, Llwyn Ifan, Porthyrhyd, Carmarthen, UK. SA32 8BP Email: [email protected] I am still trying unsuccessfully to retire from this enterprise. In order to reduce work, I am sowing fewer seeds and concentrating on selling excess stock which has been repotted in the current year. Some are therefore in quite small numbers. I hope that you find something of interest and order early to avoid any disappointments. Please note that my autumn seed list is included below. This means that seed is fresher and you can sow it earlier. Terms of Business: I can accept payment by either: • Cheque made out to "R Wallis" (n.b. Please do not fill in the amount but add the words “not to exceed £xx” ACROSS THE TOP); • PayPal, please include your email address with the order and wait for an invoice after I dispatch your order; • In cash (Sterling, Euro or US dollar are accepted, in this case I advise using registered mail). Please note that I can only accept orders placed before the end of August. Parcels will be dispatched at the beginning of September. If you are going to be away please let me know so that I can coordinate dispatch. I will not cash your cheque until your order is dispatched. If ordering by email, and following up by post, please ensure that you tick the box on the order form to avoid duplication. Acis autumnalis var pulchella A Moroccan version of this excellent early autumn flowerer. It is quite distinct in the fact that the pedicels and bracts are green rather than maroon as in the type variety. -
Iris for the Home Gardener a Rainbow of Colors in Many Shapes and Sizes Bob Lyons
Iris for the Home Gardener A Rainbow of Colors in Many Shapes and Sizes Bob Lyons FEW PLANTS HAVE AS MUCH HISTORY and affection among gardeners than iris. In Greek mythology, Iris is the personification of the rainbow and messenger of the Gods, and indeed, Iris appear in many magical colors—a large and diverse genus. Some have large showy flowers, others more I. ‘Black Gamecock’ understated; some grow in clumps, others spread; some prefer I. ensata ‘Angelic Choir’ it dry, others are more partial to moist, even wet conditions; and some grow from bulbs, while others return each year from rhizomes just beneath the soil surface. How does one tell them apart and make the right choice for a home garden? Fortunately, horticulturists and iris enthusiasts have developed a system of organization to make sense out of the vast world of irises. Three groups that account for more than 75% of the commercial iris market today are the Bearded Iris, Siberian Iris, and Japanese Iris. Each group recognizes the best of the best with prestigious national awards, noted in the descriptions that follow. The Dykes Medal is awarded to the finest iris of any class. More iris plants are described in the “Plant Descriptions: I. ×pseudata ‘Aichi no Kagayaki’ I. ensata ‘Cascade Crest’ Perennial” section.

STUDY on GROWTH, DEVELOPMENT and SOME BIOCHEMICAL ASPECTS of SEVERAL VARIETIES of Nerine
• STUDY ON GROWTH, DEVELOPMENT AND SOME BIOCHEMICAL ASPECTS OF SEVERAL VARIETIES OF Nerine by KUMALA DEWI partia,1 Submitted in,fulfilment of the requirements for the A degree of Master of Science Studies Department of Plant Science University of Tasmania May, 1993 DECLARATION To the best of my knowledge and belief, this thesis contains no material which has been submitted for the award of any other degree or diploma, nor does it contain any paraphrase of previously published material except where due reference is made in the text. Kumala Dewi ii ABSTRACT Nerine fothergillii bulbs were stored at different temperatures for a certain period of time and then planted and grown in an open condition. The effect of the different storage temperatures on carbohydrate -; content and endogenous gibberellins w Ct,5 examined in relation to flowering. Flowering percentage and flower number in each umbel was reduced when the bulbs were stored at 300 C while bulbs which received 50 C treatment possess earlier flowering and longer flower stalksthan bulbs without 5 0 C storage treatment. Carbohydrates in both outer and inner scales of N. fothergillii were examined semi-quantitatively by paper chromatography. Glucose, fructose and sucrose have been identified from paper chromatogramS. Endogenous gibberellins in N. fothergillii have been identified by GC - SIM and full mass spectra from GCMS. These include GA19, GA20 and G Al, their presence suggests the occurence of the early 13 - hydroxylation pathway. The response of N. bowdenii grown under Long Day (LD) and Short Day (SD) conditions w as studied. Ten plants from each treatment were examined at intervalsof 4 weeks. -

Current anatomical research in Liliaceae, Amaryllidaceae and Iridaceae. Telopea 2(4): 425-452, Fig.1-An annotated bibliography is presented covering literature over the period 1968 to date. Recent research is described and areas of future work are discussed. INTRODUCTION In this article, the literature for the past twelve or so years is recorded on the anatomy of Liliaceae, AmarylIidaceae and Iridaceae and the smaller, related families, Alliaceae, Haemodoraceae, Hypoxidaceae, Ruscaceae, Smilacaceae and Trilliaceae. Subjects covered range from embryology, vegetative and floral anatomy to seed anatomy. A format is used in which references are arranged alphabetically, numbered and annotated, so that the reader can rapidly obtain an idea of the range and contents of papers on subjects of particular interest to him. The main research trends have been identified, classified, and check lists compiled for the major headings. Current systematic anatomy on the 'Anatomy of the Monocotyledons' series is reported. Comment is made on areas of research which might prove to be of future significance. -
