Squak Mountain Nursery Jakobsen Mugo Pine

Jakobsen Mugo Pine* Pinus mugo 'Jakobsen' Height: 24 inches Spread: 4 feet Sunlight: Hardiness Zone: 2 Other Names: Mugho Pine, Swiss Mountain Pine Jakobsen Mugo Pine Description: Photo courtesy of NetPS Plant Finder This ground hugging variety has a spreading habit that forms in clumps, revealing grey branches that give it an ancient look; needles are short and a rich deep green; a perfect accent for the low border Ornamental Features Jakobsen Mugo Pine has dark green foliage. The needles remain dark green throughout the winter. Neither the flowers nor the fruit are ornamentally significant. Landscape Attributes Jakobsen Mugo Pine is a multi-stemmed evergreen shrub with a ground-hugging habit of growth. Its relatively fine texture sets it apart from other landscape plants with less refined foliage. This is a relatively low maintenance shrub. When pruning is necessary, it is recommended to only trim back the new growth of the current season, other than to remove any dieback. It has no significant negative characteristics. Jakobsen Mugo Pine foliage Photo courtesy of NetPS Plant Finder Jakobsen Mugo Pine is recommended for the following landscape applications; - Mass Planting - General Garden Use - Groundcover Planting & Growing Jakobsen Mugo Pine will grow to be about 24 inches tall at maturity, with a spread of 4 feet. It has a low canopy. It grows at a slow rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for 50 years or more. This shrub should only be grown in full sunlight. It prefers dry to average moisture levels with very well-drained soil, and will often die in standing water. It is considered to be drought-tolerant, and thus makes an ideal choice for a low-water garden or xeriscape application. It is not particular as to soil type or pH, and is able to handle environmental salt. It is highly tolerant of urban pollution and will even thrive in inner city environments. This is a selected variety of a species not originally from North America. * This is a 'special order' plant - contact store for details.

IHCA Recommended Plant List
Residential Architectural Review Committee Recommended Plant List Plant Materials The following plant materials are intended to guide tree and shrub ADDITIONS to residential landscapes at Issaquah Highlands. Lot sizes, shade, wind and other factors place size and growth constraints on plants, especially trees, which are suitable for addition to existing landscapes. Other plant materials may be considered that have these characteristics and similar maintenance requirements. Additional species and varieties may be selected if authorized by the Issaquah Highlands Architectural Review Committee. This list is not exhaustive but does cover most of the “good doers” for Issaquah Highlands. Our microclimate is colder and harsher than those closer to Puget Sound.

Forest and Scrub Communities with Green Alder (Alnus Viridis) in Slovenia
HACQUETIA 12/2 • 2013, 95–185 DOI: 10.2478/HACQ-2013-0012 FOREST AND SCRUB COMMUNITIES WITH GREEN ALDER (ALNUS VIRIDIS) IN SLOVENIA Igor DAKSKOBLER1,2, Andrej ROZMAN2 & Andrej SELIŠKAR3 Abstract This paper provides phytosociological tables that describe scrub and forest communities with Alnus viridis in the Slovenian Alps. We described three new associations: Rhododendro hirsuti-Alnetum viridis (a green alder community on calcareous bedrock in the Eastern and Southeastern Alps), Huperzio selagi-Alnetum viridis (a green alder community in the silicate rocks under Mt. Komen in the eastern Savinja Alps) and Alno viridis- Sorbetum aucupariae (a successional stage of mountain ash and green alder on potential beech sites in the foot- hills of the southern Julian Alps; similar stages are known also elsewhere in the Alps), and presented additional three associations (Polysticho lonchitis-Fagetum, Rhodothamno-Laricetum and Rhododendro hirsuti-Pinetum mugo) whose stands comprise green alder. Key words: phytosociology, synsystematics, Alnetum viridis, Rhododendro hirsuti-Alnetum viridis, Huperzio selagi- Alnetum viridis, Alno viridis-Sorbetum aucupariae, the Julian Alps, the Karavanke Mountains, the Smrekovec Mountains. Izvleček V članku s fitocenološkimi tabelami opisujemo grmiščne in gozdne združbe, v katerih v slovenskih Alpah uspeva vrsta Alnus viridis. Opisali smo tri nove asociacije: Rhododendro hirsuti-Alnetum viridis (združba zelene je- lše na karbonatni podlagi v vzhodnih in jugovzhodnih Alpah), Huperzio selagi-Alnetum viridis (združba zelene jelše v silikatnem skalovju pod goro Komen v vzhodnih Savinjskih Alpah) ter Alno viridis-Sorbetum aucupariae (sukcesijski stadij jerebike in zelene jelše na potencialno bukovih rastiščih v prigorju južnih Julijskih Alp, po- dobne stadije poznajo tudi drugod v Alpah) ter predstavili še tri druge asociacije (Polysticho lonchitis-Fagetum, Rhodothamno-Laricetum in Rhododendro hirsuti-Pinetum mugo), v čigar sestojih uspeva zelena jelša.

ABDEL-RAHMAN 1, CHRISTIAN T. CHIMIMBA, PETER J. TAYLOR, GIANCARLO CONTRAFATTO, JENNIFER M. LAMB 1 Sudan Natural History Museum, Faculty of Science, University of Khartoum P. O. Box 321 Khartoum, Sudan Non-geographic morphometric variation particularly at the level of sexual dimorphism and age variation has been extensively documented in many organisms including rodents, and is useful for establishing whether to analyse sexes separately or together and for selecting adult specimens to consider for subsequent data recording and analysis. However, such studies have largely been based on linear measurement-based traditional morphometric analyses that mainly focus on the partitioning of overall size- rather than shape-related morphological variation. Nevertheless, recent advances in unit-free, landmark/outline-based geometric morphometric analyses offer a new tool to assess shape-related morphological variation. In the present study, we used geometric morphometric analysis to comparatively evaluate non-geographic variation in two geographically disparate murid rodent species, Aethmoys ineptus from South Africa and Arvicanthis niloticus from Sudan , the results of which are also compared with previously published results based on traditional morphometric data. Our results show that while the results of the traditional morphometric analyses of both species were congruent, they were not sensitive enough to detect some signals of non-geographic morphological variation.

Task Force on Landscape Heritage and Plant Diversity Has Determined Initial Designations
THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA AT CHAPEL HILL TASK FORCE ON LANDSCAPE HERITAGE & PLANT DIVERSITY nd 2 EDITION APPROVED BY THE CHANCELLORS BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS COMMITTEE February, 2005 This report is the product of a more than one-year-long effort from concerned members of the University of North Carolina community to ensure that the culturally, historically, and ecologically significant trees and landscaped spaces of the Chapel Hill campus are preserved and maintained in a manner befitting their beauty and grandeur. At the time of this writing, Carolina is in the middle of the most significant building and renovation period in its history. Such a program poses many significant challenges to the survival and well-being of our cherished trees and landscapes. This report attempts to identify, promote awareness, and provide guidelines for both the protection and enhancement of the grounds of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Furthermore, this report is intended to work within the framework of two earlier documents that help guide development of the campus: the 2002 UNC Master Plan and the 1997 Report of the Chancellor’s Task Force on Intellectual Climate at UNC. We hope that members of the university community as well as outside consultants and contractors will find this information both useful and pertinent.

Six Dwarf Mugo-Pine Cultivars Released, Vol.1, Issue 12
Dec. 1976- ORNAMENTALS A.N. Roberts Jan. 1977 Department of Horticulture NORTHWEST Vol. 1, Issue 12 Oregon State University ARCHIVES Pages 1-3 SIX DWARF MUGO-PINE CULTIVARS RELEASED The Mugo or Swiss Mountain pine is one of the most popular evergreen shrubs used in present day landscaping, especially the more dwarf seedlings of Pinus mugo pumilio and P. mugo mughus. The other botanical variety, P. mugo rostrata, produces quite large trees. The trade propagates Mugo primarily from seed and a great deal of variation exists in such populations in plant habit, size, needle form and color, cone-bearing tendency, etc. Research in Europe has shown P. mugo to hybridize freely with P. sylvestris making seed selection a must in this form of propagation. Our work has shown that seed selection from known parents can increase uniformity in Mugo-pine considerably and can be used as a first step in tree improvement. Selected forms of Mugo-pine have been named and propagated by grafting in Europe. At present, the only ones generally available in the trade are 'Gnom', 'Kobold', and 'Mops' in Holland and 'Hesse', and 'Kokarde' in Germany. We have grown thousands of seedlings of so-called true Tyrolean dwarf Mugo-pine, P. mugo mughus obtained from F. W. Schumacker, Sandwich, Massachusetts, at the Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station's Lewis-Brown Horticultural Farm. Seedlings of P. mugo pumilio have also been grown for comparison. Visits to nurseries and arboretums in Europe to study seed sources and seedling variation in Mugo-pine have also been helpful. Botanists and foresters in Innsbruck and Vienna, Austria have been particularly helpful in explaining seedling variation.

The pollen grains were bisaccate and monosulcate. The corpus-saccus attachment was distinct. The pollen corpus exine sculpture was verrucate-rugulate and deeply sculptured. The surface of the tectum was covered with small grana and it was perforate. The saccus sexine ornamentation was reticulate and irregularly perforate. The tectum surface characters in the proximal and distal view of the corpus and saccus were less variable and they did not provide good criteria to identify the species under study. However, some differences were observed in the size of elevation on the corpus between pollen grains of the same species and between the parental species. This study of the pollen grain morphology of the corpus and saccus provided some important new data.
