  • Alplains 2013 Seed Catalog P.O
    ALPLAINS 2013 SEED CATALOG P.O. BOX 489, KIOWA, CO 80117-0489, U.S.A. Three ways to contact us: FAX: (303) 621-2864 (24 HRS.) email: [email protected] website: www.alplains.com Dear Growing Friends: Welcome to our 23rd annual seed catalog! The summer of 2012 was long, hot and brutal, with drought afflicting most of the U.S. Most of my botanical explorations were restricted to Idaho, Wash- ington, Oregon and northern California but even there moisture was below average. In a year like this, seeps, swales, springs, vestigial snowbanks and localized rainstorms became much more important in my search for seeding plants. On the Snake River Plains of southern Idaho and the scab- lands of eastern Washington, early bloomers such as Viola beckwithii, V. trinervata, Ranunculus glaberrimus, Ranunculus andersonii, Fritillaria pudica and Primula cusickiana put on quite a show in mid-April but many populations could not set seed. In northern Idaho, Erythronium idahoense flowered extensively, whole meadows were covered with thousands of the creamy, pendant blossoms. One of my most satisfying finds in the Hells Canyon area had to be Sedum valens. The tiny glaucous rosettes, surround- ed by a ring of red leaves, are a succulent connoisseur’s dream. Higher up, the brilliant blue spikes of Synthyris missurica punctuated the canyon walls. In southern Oregon, the brilliant red spikes of Pedicularis densiflora lit up the Siskiyou forest floor. Further north in Oregon, large populations of Erythronium elegans, Erythronium oregonum ssp. leucandrum, Erythro- nium revolutum, trilliums and sedums provided wonderful picture-taking opportunities. Eriogonum species did well despite the drought, many of them true xerics.

  • Here Is a Quick Explanation of How the Seed Exchange Works
    RULES OF THE SEED EXCHANGE The rules of the seed exchange have been revised in 2014, in order to make it run more smoothly, be more cost-effective (it makes a loss, so is a cost to the Society) and offer a better service. Please ensure that you READ these new rules and follow them: they are available to all so you will be deemed to know about them! INTRODUCTION Please remember that the seed exchange is basically a free service provided by the members for the members (you only pay a small charge to cover postage, stationery etc), and all work is done by volunteers. These rules are designed to make it possible to continue offering the service on the present basis; we simply do not have enough time to deal with either donations or orders which take up more time than they ought, hence the various inducements and sanctions we offer or impose. Here is a quick explanation of how the seed exchange works. Donors collect seed in their gardens as it ripens, name and package it and send it in to me before a closing date published in the magazine each year. I put all seed of the same variety into one large envelope (checking that it's what it says it is and that the name is correct as I go along), and when all the seed is in I make a list of what I have and number the envelopes to match the list. The list then goes off to press and the seeds go to the Cheshire Group to be packeted into the small individual packets in which they are sent out - over a thousand varieties, each into an average of twenty packets, and all numbered.

In Mexico, more than 250 species with edible stems, leaves, vines and flowers, known as “quelites,” are collected or are cultivated and consumed. The assessment of the quelite composition depends on the chemical characteristics of the compounds being evaluated; the protein quality is a direct function of the amino acid content, which is evaluated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the contribution of minerals is evaluated by atomic absorption spectrometry, inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) or ICP mass spectrometry. The total contents of phenols, flavonoids, carotenoids, saponins and other general compounds have been analyzed using UV-vis spectrophotometry and by HPLC.

  • Seedling Establishment, Bud Movement, and Subterranean Diversity of Geophilous Systems in Apiaceae
    Flora (2002) 197, 385–393 http://www.urbanfischer.de/journals/flora Seedling establishment, bud movement, and subterranean diversity of geophilous systems in Apiaceae Norbert Pütz1* & Ina Sukkau2 1 Institute of Nature Conservation and Environmental Education, University of Vechta, Driverstr. 22, D-49377 Vechta, Germany 2 Institute of Botany, RWTH Aachen, Germany * author for correspondence: e-mail: [email protected] Received: Nov 29, 2001 · Accepted: Jun 10, 2002 Summary Geophilous systems of plants are not only regarded as organs of underground storage. Such systems also undergo a large range of modifications in order to fulfill other ‚cryptical‘ functions, e.g. positioning of innovation buds, vegetative cloning, and vege- tative dispersal. Seedlings should always be the point of departure for any investigation into the structure of geophilous systems. This is because in the ability to survive of geophilous plants it is of primary importance that innovation buds can reach a safe position in the soil by the time the first period hostile to vegetation commences. Our analysis of such systems thus focused on examining the development of 34 species of the Apiaceae, beginning with their germination. Independent of life-form and life-span, all species exhibit noticeable terminal bud movement with the aid of contractile organs. Movement was found to be at least 5 mm, reaching a maximum of 45 mm. All species exhibit a noticeable contraction of the primary root. In most cases the contraction phenomenon also occurs in the hypocotyl, and some species show contraction of their lateral and / or adventitious roots. Analysis of movement shows the functional importance of pulling the inno- vation buds down into the soil.

  • Colonial Garden Plants
    COLONIAL GARD~J~ PLANTS I Flowers Before 1700 The following plants are listed according to the names most commonly used during the colonial period. The botanical name follows for accurate identification. The common name was listed first because many of the people using these lists will have access to or be familiar with that name rather than the botanical name. The botanical names are according to Bailey’s Hortus Second and The Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture (3, 4). They are not the botanical names used during the colonial period for many of them have changed drastically. We have been very cautious concerning the interpretation of names to see that accuracy is maintained. By using several references spanning almost two hundred years (1, 3, 32, 35) we were able to interpret accurately the names of certain plants. For example, in the earliest works (32, 35), Lark’s Heel is used for Larkspur, also Delphinium. Then in later works the name Larkspur appears with the former in parenthesis. Similarly, the name "Emanies" appears frequently in the earliest books. Finally, one of them (35) lists the name Anemones as a synonym. Some of the names are amusing: "Issop" for Hyssop, "Pum- pions" for Pumpkins, "Mushmillions" for Muskmellons, "Isquou- terquashes" for Squashes, "Cowslips" for Primroses, "Daffadown dillies" for Daffodils. Other names are confusing. Bachelors Button was the name used for Gomphrena globosa, not for Centaurea cyanis as we use it today. Similarly, in the earliest literature, "Marygold" was used for Calendula. Later we begin to see "Pot Marygold" and "Calen- dula" for Calendula, and "Marygold" is reserved for Marigolds.

  • Aspects Regarding the Ornamental Value of Plants from Eryngium Genus
    LUCRĂRI ŞTIINŢIFICE SERIA HORTICULTURĂ, 60 (2) / 2017, USAMV IAŞI ASPECTS REGARDING THE ORNAMENTAL VALUE OF PLANTS FROM ERYNGIUM GENUS ASPECTE PRIVIND VALOAREA DECORATIVĂ A PLANTELOR DIN GENUL ERYNGIUM MORARU Mihaela1, CHELARIU Elena Liliana1, BRÎNZĂ Maria1, GOANŢĂ Mirela2, DRAGHIA Lucia1 e-mail: [email protected] Abstract. The Eryngium genus, of the Apiaceae family, includes plants characterized by morphological attributes that give them, in many situations, the status of decorative plants. Relatively modest ecological requirements and fairly good resistance to less favourable crop conditions (sunstroke, water deficit, poor soils and salinity etc.) contribute to the interest in these plants. This paper aims to highlight the possibilities of using for five Eryngium taxa (E. alpinum 'Superbum', E. planum 'Blue Sea Holly', E. planum 'Blue Hobbit', E. leavenworthii) with ornamental qualities, cultivated in the conditions of Iaşi, with a view to their promotion and superior exploitation in floral art and landscaping. Key words: Eryngium, morphology, ecology, ornamental value Rezumat. Genul Eryngium, din familia Apiaceae, cuprinde plante caracterizate prin însuşiri morfologice care le conferă, în multe situaţii, şi statutul de plante decorative. Cerinţele ecologice relativ modeste şi rezistenţa destul de bună la condiţii de cultură mai puţin favorabile altor specii (insolaţie, deficit de apă, soluri sărace şi cu salinitate crescută etc.) contribuie la creşterea interesului pentru aceste plante. Lucrarea de faţă îşi propune să evidenţieze posibilităţile de utilizare a cinci taxoni de Eryngium (E. alpinum ‘Superbum’, E. planum ‘Blue Sea Holly’, E. planum 'Blue Hobbit', E. leavenworthii) cu calităţi ornamentale, cultivaţi în condiţiile de la Iaşi, în vederea promovării şi valorificării superioare a acestora în arta florală şi în amenajări peisagistice.
