The Following Were Collected by Carlos R United States Department of Agriculture Plant Inventory Agricultural Research Service No. 217 Plant Materials Introduced in 2008 (Nos. 652416 - 655520) Foreword Plant Inventory No. 217 is the official listing of plant materials accepted into the U.S. National Plant Germplasm System (NPGS) between January 1 and December 31, 2008 and includes PI 652416 to PI 655520. The NPGS is managed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Agricultural Research Service (ARS). The information on each accession is essentially the information provided with the plant material when it was obtained by the NPGS. The information on an accession in the NPGS database may change as additional knowledge is obtained. The Germplasm Resources Information Network (http://www.ars-grin.gov/npgs/index.html) is the database for the NPGS and should be consulted for the current accession and evaluation information and to request germplasm. While the USDA/ARS attempts to maintain accurate information on all NPGS accessions, it is not responsible for the quality of the information it has been provided. For questions about this volume, contact the USDA/ARS/National Germplasm Resources Laboratory/Database Management Unit: [email protected] The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) prohibits discrimination in its programs on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, religion, age, disability, political beliefs and marital or familial status. (Not all prohibited bases apply to all programs.) Persons with disabilities who require alternative means for communication of program information (Braille, large print, audiotape, etc.) should contact the USDA Office of Communications at (202) 720-2791.

Environmental consciousness in the early 19 th century commonly operated on two interrelated layers.

  • 2015 Citrus List Page 1 of 7
    2015 Citrus List Page 1 of 7 The following list is comprised of varieties that our favorite growers provide. The probability that we have all of them at the same time is slim. We book citrus 6 months in advance of their shipment and then bring in several loads. Once the growers are out of a variety, it may be a year before it becomes available again. Please remember that patience is a virtue. If you want a particular variety listed, call for availability or email your request, including your phone #, to [email protected]. When it comes in…we will let you know. Due to strict Department of Agriculture laws, citrus may not be brought into the State of Texas. We can only buy certified Texas-grown citrus and the tags must say where they came from. RCW will not ship citrus or any other plant via mail. We do offer delivery in the Houston area. Calamondin (Citrofortunella mitis) Attractive quarter-sized oranges on a hardy, upright, small tree rarely reaching 10 feet tall. Typically used as an ornamental and does well in a pot. Fragrant flowers add a nice scent to your garden several times a year followed by an abundance of small fruit. The fruit has a sweet rind and the pulp is tangy and seedy. Use in marmalade, add a zip to iced tea or as a flavoring. The Giant Swallowtail butterfly will lay eggs on this tree. A great source for sling shot ammo. Harvest all year long. A variegated form is often available. Citron aka Buddha Hand (Citrus medica) This small, thorny, bushy tree bears a fruit that looks like the love child of a lemon and a squid.
