  • Deutzia John Frett and Andrew Adams
    Deutzia John Frett and Andrew Adams Deutzia is a large genus with more than 60 species and even more cultivars. It is a group of plants that is grown widely in the US, Europe and Asia primarily for its flowers. It has been popular in the US since its use in Victorian gardens, but the deutzia of today is nothing like that Deutzia ‘Mont Rose’ Deutzia ×kalmiiflora of days gone by. Old-fashioned Deutzia Photo: Andrew Adams Photo: Andrew Adams were more commonly large, 6–12 feet tall, upright shrubs frequently with vase Most of today’s popular Deutzia are smaller and more shape or arching habit. These plants were stunning with compact. Several of the selections offered in the sale grow typically white flowers in the spring garden, then fading 1–2 feet tall and wide, functioning more as a groundcover into the background during the summer and fall. Fruits are a than an individual shrub. These plants are best planted in dry capsule of little ornamental or wildlife value and foliage groups and are especially suitable for slopes. They are even becoming a dirty yellow before dropping in the autumn. They small enough to be integrated into the perennial border but were useful plants in larger gardens and shrub borders where do not cut them back in the fall as these shrubs flower in they could be combined with other shrubs to provide year- the spring. This means they flower on last year’s stems. If you round interest. want to tidy up these compact plants, cut them to the ground The traditional Deutzia are still after flowering and they will regrow and produce flowers very useful in today’s shrub the following spring.

  • Wilson's Controversial Magnolia and the Mysterious Wa Shan
    photograph © President and Fellows of Harvard College. Arnold Arboretum Archives. Wilson’s photo of Wa Shan. “The fog prevented my view of the wild and savage scenery for which this stretch is famed. I was very disappointed as I was keen on getting some photos” (Wilson’s diary 18 September, 1908); “the Mt. covered in dense cloud all day” (19 September); “Mt. Wa was clear, 52 and I took 3 photos from different positions” (20 September). Wilson’s controversial magnolia and the mysterious Wa Shan As is so often the case, what was expected to be a leisurely pursuit of magnolia study in the tranquil atmosphere of the Australian Bicentennial Arboretum, turned out to be an exciting adventure into the wilderness of China’s remote and elusive Wa Shan, a mountain shrouded in mist and mystery. This is such a tale when CHRIS CALLAGHAN and SK PNG went searching for Wilson’s controversial Magnolia sargentiana var. robusta in a quest to shed further light on its botanical status and ended up rediscovering a mountain potentially richer in flora than Emei Shan! While researching the identity of what was found to be probably the first recorded hybrid of Magnolia sargentiana var. sargentiana (see ‘Bicentennial’ – a new hybrid magnolia cultivar, in the 2008 IDS Yearbook, pp. 53 - 61), I became aware of a controversy surrounding the botanical status of Magnolia sargentiana var. robusta, the few plants of which were discovered by Ernest Wilson in woodlands and open country on Wa Shan in Sichuan province, INTERNATIONAL DENDROLOGY SOCIETY TREES photograph © Australian Bicentennial Arboretum Da-tien Chi at base of Wa Shan in October 2009.
