However, you can generally be successful by following the guidelines for 1 1 Brassica family members: Grow in shallow trays or 20-row flats. Broadcast seed thickly on the media surface with seeds /8– /4" apart, and cover lightly with sowing mix, vermiculite, etc. Ideal soil temperature is 75°F (24°C) until germination, then reduced to 60°F (16°C). Optimal ambient temperatures are variety-specific, but 65–75°F/18–24C° is generally a favorable range. Temperatures above 75°F can increase disease pressure and inhibit germination. Bottom water or mist to prevent sowing mix from splashing on the seedlings. Maintain even moisture and do not allow sowing medium to dry out. If fertilizing, incorporate fertilizer into the sowing mix before sowing, or use a bottom watering system for liquid applications to avoid residue on the leaves. 1 HARVEST: Once cotyledons have fully developed, or once the first true leaves begin to emerge, depending upon your market. ypically,T micros range from /2–2" in height. For most items this will be 2–4 weeks after sowing, depending on the variety, growing conditions, and final product size desired. Cut with scissors or a sharp knife and minimize handling to reduce damage. Microgreens must be washed before serving. Shelf life ranges from 5–10 days under proper storage conditions. 1 VEGETABLES — Fast-Growing Microgreen Varieties (10-15 days) H — all microgreens are suitable for hydroponic growing 5 LBS. 25 LBS.

  • Citrus Trees Grow Very Well in the Sacramento Valley!
    Citrus! Citrus trees grow very well in the Sacramento Valley! They are evergreen trees or large shrubs, with wonderfully fragrant flowers and showy fruit in winter. There are varieties that ripen in nearly every season. Citrus prefer deep, infrequent waterings, regular fertilizer applications, and may need protection from freezing weather. We usually sell citrus on rootstocks that make them grow more slowly, so we like to call them "semi-dwarf". We can also special-order most varieties on rootstocks that allow them to grow larger. Citrus size can be controlled by pruning. The following citrus varieties are available from the Redwood Barn Nursery, and are recommended for our area unless otherwise noted in the description. Oranges Robertson Navel Best selling winter-ripening variety. Early and heavy bearing. Cultivar of Washington Navel. Washington Navel California's famous winter-ripening variety. Fruit ripens in ten months. Jaffa (Shamouti) Fabled orange from Middle East. Very few seeds. spring to summer ripening. Good flavor. Trovita Spring ripening. Good in many locations from coastal areas to desert. Few seeds, heavy producer, excellent flavor. Valencia Summer-ripening orange for juicing or eating. Fifteen months to ripen. Grow your own orange juice. Seville Essential for authentic English marmalade. Used fresh or dried in Middle Eastern cooking. Moro Deep blood coloration, almost purple-red, even in California coastal areas. Very productive, early maturity, distinctive aroma, exotic berry-like flavor. Sanquinella A deep blood red juice and rind. Tart, spicy flavor. Stores well on tree. Mandarins / Tangerines Dancy The best-known Mandarin type. On fruit stands at Christmas time.

  • In Vitro Clonal Propagation of Fuchsia Magellanica Lam
    African Journal of Biotechnology Vol. 12(7), pp. 670-678, 13 February, 2013 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/AJB DOI: 10.5897/AJB11.3021 ISSN 1684–5315 ©2013 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper In vitro clonal propagation of Fuchsia magellanica Lam. Anjum Parveen* and Sadia Rasheed Department of Botany, University of Karachi, 75270, Pakistan. Accepted 1 August, 2012 Fuchsia magellanica Lam. is a famous ornamental plant which is rarely found in Pakistan. Its beauty and uniqueness made it an important candidate for tissue culture studies especially for regeneration and multiplication purposes. Here, for the very first time we report a rapid and reliable method for the regeneration of F. magellanica in vitro. Axillary buds explants from one year old F. magellanica plant were cultured on Murashige and Skoog's (MS) (1962) medium without any hormone supplementation. Multiplication was carried out by using 1 and 0.1 mg/lit., 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) and α-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA), respectively. For elongation purpose, 0.5 µM gibberellic acid (GA3) was used. 0.1 mg/lit. NAA was used to stimulate extensive root development within one month. After successful regeneration, the plantlets were acclimatized into the soil. This study is undertaken to perform in vitro clonal propagation and acclimatization of F. magellanica in order to get hundreds of F. magellanica plants in the laboratory in comparatively less time. Hence, it would be possible to regenerate F. magellanica plants in the laboratory and after successful acclimatization. Key words: Axillary buds, clonal propagation, Murashige and Skoog, 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP), α- naphthalene acetic acid (NAA), gibberellic acid (GA3), acclimatization.

Lammers ABSTRACT. Onagraceae are a family of 17 genera in seven tribes, with the majority of species in tribes Onagreae and Epilobieae. Despite the species-richness of these two tribes, to date no phylogenetic study has been done with suf!cient taxon sampling to examine relationships between and within these tribes. In this study, we used DNA sequence data from one nuclear region (ITS) and two chloroplast regions (trnL-trnF and rps16) to infer phylogenetic relationships among 93 taxa across the family, with concentrated sampling in the large tribe Onagreae.

  • President's Report
    No 114, Summer 2018/19 President’s Report Spring and autumn are my most favourite seasons and this year the spring flowers are particularly lush. As I walked over the bridge from the Armagh Street car park into the Gardens I was met by a loud humming. The lovely New Zealand native Carpodetus serratus (marble leaf or putaputaweta) tree was in full bloom and covered in bees. This was a super sight and a heartening sound so I stood for ages watching and trying to capture the busy bees on camera. Bees in Carpodetus serratus When I arrived home from visiting my family in Switzerland this year, Wolfgang Bopp our new Director, was already on the job and working hard to familiarise himself with his new surroundings. A hearty welcome to you and Janet, Wolfgang, it is great to have you at the helm. Since the last newsletter we have had two interesting talks; Sue Verrall of Discover Travel spoke about the Great Rift Valley of East Africa, and Paul Michael of Fern Factor, talked about how he is propagating ferns to use as nursery crops for forest plantings. This was an interesting perspective on using ferns to help the environment, particularly when we learnt that one of these ferns was Pteridium esculentum or common bracken. Both these talks were very well attended and our November speaker, Colin D Meurk, Research Associate, Manaaki Whenua Landcare will undoubtedly be just as interesting. Hopefully many of you will be able to join us for the Christmas party on 9 December and hear Wolfgang our new Director, in what I hope will be his first of many talks.

  • CBCS 059 YAMADORI (Collected Near Bass Lake in 1972)

The trunk grows upright for a small distance and then bends downwards/sidewards. Unlike the cascade style, the semi- cascade trunk will never grow below the bottom of the pot. The crown is usually above the rim of the pot while subsequent branching occurs below the rim. Donor: Howard Latimer PEDESTAL 2 1997 GSBF Magazine CBCS 2019 New pot 2021 CBCS 082 LEGACY COLLECTION Bonsai within the Collection created by Japanese immigrants and/or Japanese Americans and maintained in the style of the original artist in so far as that is possible to provide an historical spectrum in keeping with the mission of a bonsai museum. YAMADORI: literally means “collecting plants in the mountains” but is loosely translated into gathering plants from the wild. The found plant specimen is then carefully and skillfully trained into works of art also known as Bonsai. Yamadori is the most coveted type of Bonsai because of its unique characteristics. This tree won the Ben Oki International Design Award in 1998. Artist/ Maker: Sherwin Amimoto Common Name: California Juniper Botanical Name: Juniperus Californica Date Acquired: 10/30/08 Age: Estimated to be 300 years + Deciduous / Evergreen: Evergreen Style: Sharimiki/Driftwood This style portrays a tree with a significant part of its trunk bare of bark.

  • A California-Friendly Guide to Native and Drought Tolerant Gardens
    A California-Friendly Guide to Native and Drought Tolerant Gardens 1 Scale: 1/4” = 1’ 2 WELCOME to our newest edition of “A California-Friendly Guide to Native and Drought Tolerant Gardens”, a collection of plants featured in our customer newsletter, The Current Flow, plus useful information. This publication is intended to help beginning and experienced gardeners become familiar with the different varieties of plants that can help reduce water usage while providing a pleasing and attractive landscape. Native and drought tolerant plants are important for this region, not just because they are water efficient, but because they are the cornerstone of biological diversity and the foundations of the native ecosystems in our local Santa Monica Mountains environment. Using “California-friendly” plants for everything from backyard gardens to wide scale re-vegetation is a positive practice that will benefit the local habitat and all residents who live here. With our current climate conditions of increasing warmth and less moisture, more and more Californians are becoming interested in replacing high-maintenance, lawns that require a lot of water and fertilizers, with water-conserving plants. These can be anything from ground covers to a field of meadow flowers to stately oak trees – they all provide the benefits of lower water needs, reduced maintenance requirements, restored soil health, increased diversity that attracts birds and butterflies, as well as the aesthetic beauty of blending in with the natural landscapes. Visit www.LVMWD.com for conservation information including irrigation tips, how to obtain and use Community Compost, rebate programs, how to register for landscape and garden classes, controlling urban runoff, and more.
