Do this pruning in late winter or early spring while plants are dormant (Horticulture magazine) 4. Coppicing is a pruning technique that shrubs to ground level, causing new shoots to grow rapidly from the base during growing season.

  • County Line Nursery Fiesta St. John's Wort
    Fiesta St. John's Wort Hypericum calycinum 'Fiesta' Height: 12 inches Spread: 3 feet Spacing: 30 inches Sunlight: Hardiness Zone: 4 Description: A stoloniferous groundcover variety with stunning lemon-yellow and blue-green variegated foliage, that takes on peachy tones in cool weather; yellow flowers in mid-summer; a versatile shrub, that is a fantastic addition to the color garden; adaptable Fiesta St. John's Wort foliage Photo courtesy of NetPS Plant Finder Ornamental Features Fiesta St. John's Wort has masses of beautiful yellow buttercup flowers at the ends of the branches from early to mid summer, which are most effective when planted in groupings. The flowers are excellent for cutting. It has attractive lemon yellow-variegated deciduous bluish-green foliage with hints of peach throughout the season. The oval leaves are highly ornamental but do not develop any appreciable fall color. The fruit is not ornamentally significant. Landscape Attributes Fiesta St. John's Wort is a dense multi-stemmed deciduous shrub with an upright spreading habit of growth. Its relatively fine texture sets it apart from other landscape plants with less refined foliage. This shrub will require occasional maintenance and upkeep, and should only be pruned after flowering to avoid removing any of the current season's flowers. 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. Fiesta St. John's Wort is recommended for the following landscape applications; - Mass Planting - General Garden Use - Groundcover - Container Planting Planting & Growing Fiesta St. John's Wort will grow to be about 12 inches tall at maturity, with a spread of 3 feet.

  • Deciduous Woody Groundcovers, Page 1
    Deciduous Woody Groundcovers, page 1 Deciduous Woody Groundcovers Low-growing shrubs and woody plants provide attractive, protective cover for gardens, slopes and many difficult sites. When most people think of groundcovers, they think of low-growing perennials, such as periwinkle (Vinca minor), Bugleweed (Ajuga reptans), Sweet Woodruff (Gallium odoratum) or Lily-of-the-Valley (Convalaria majallis). But deciduous woody shrubs growing up to 4 feet tall can also fill the groundcover niche in a variety of soil and sun conditions, according to research at Cornell University’s Urban Horticulture Institute. Good reasons to plant Matching the right deciduous woody species to the site – and carefully planting and caring for them – can provide many benefits: • Reduced mowing expenses when used to replace turfgrasses, • Better erosion control when used to replace species poorly adapted to shady sites, steep slopes or other challenging locations. • Reduced competition from turfgrasses and less damage from foot traffic, mowers and string trimmers when used around trees. • Transpirational cooling and more porous ground surfaces to improve drainage when used as an alternative to pavement. • Habitat and food for wildlife. Also, many deciduous woody groundcovers perform best in full sun and grow up to 4 feet tall, while many of the common herbaceous perennial groundcovers are low- growing and perform better in part shade or shade. Many of the species best-suited for deciduous woody groundcover plantings would never be considered spectacular specimen plants. Up close or planted singly, some are rather plain. But planted in masses and viewed from a distance, well-designed plantings can be aesthetically quite pleasing.

Common St. Johnswort & Aaron’s Beard Prepared by Marian McCoy, Melica Environmental, Victoria, BC for the Garry Oak Ecosystems Recovery Team January 2012 Funds for this project were provided by the Habitat Stewardship Program for Species at Risk of the Government of Canada Peer-reviewed journal articles Briese, D.T. 1996. Biological control of weeds and fire management in protected natural areas: are they compatible strategies? Biological Conservation, Vol. 77, Issue 2-3, pp. 135–141. Author’s abstract: Biological control of weeds has been traditionally associated with pastoral or cultivated land-use systems. Recently though, there has been increasing discussion of the possibility of biological control of weeds that have invaded national parks and native forests. However, a completely different set of management strategies applies in such land-use systems, the aims of which may conflict with those of classical biological control. In Australia, one such practice is the use of regular prescription burning to control the incidence and severity of wild fires. This paper reports data collected between 1981 and 1987 on an infestation of St John's wort (Hypericum perforatum), and its biological control agent, Chrysolina quadrigemina, in eucalypt forest that was burnt twice during the study period. The fires both promoted development of the weed population and retarded that of the control agent. However, a subsequent indirect effect of fire was to favour population build-ups of C. quadrigemina and a recently released agent, Aphis chloris, through increased plant nutrient levels.

(St. John’s wort, Hypericaceae) includes more than 480 species that occur in temperature or tropical mountain regions of the world. Monographic work on the genus has resulted in the recognition and description of 36 taxonomic sections, delineated by specific combinations of morphological characteristics and biogeographic distribution. The Mediterranean Basin has been recognized as a hot spot of diversity for the genus Hypericum, and as such is a region in which many endemic species occur. Species belonging to sections distributed in this area of the world display considerable morphological and phytochemical diversity. Results of a cladistic analysis, based on 89 morphological characters that were considered phylogenetically informative, are given here. In addition, a brief overview of morphological characteristics and the distribution of pharmaceutically relevant secondary metabolites for species native to this region of the world are presented. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
