Ideally, works will be life-sized and 3- dimensional. Pieces should represent plants that are good for clean water and habitat and/or species that benefit from these plants like bees and butterflies. We are hopeful some participants will contribute pieces that include the root structure and depth of Minnesota native plants.

We investigated whether a root-feeding moth found closely associated with oxeye daisy in Europe could be used as a biological control agent for the plant when weedy.

Sedge – Mixed Forb Fen
Sedge – Mixed Forb Fen System: Palustrine Subsystem: Herbaceous PA Ecological Group(s): Peatland Wetland Global Rank: GNR State Rank: S1 General Description These are open, sedge-dominated wetlands that usually occur on organic substrate (sedge peat), saturated throughout most of the year by base-rich groundwater. These sites usually lack the distinct seepage areas associated with other fen types. Sedge species dominate, including prairie sedge (Carex prairea), Atlantic sedge (Carex sterilis), and/or sedge (Carex tetanica). Other species may include mountain-mint (Pycnanthemum virginianum), blue vervain (Verbena hastata), starry false Solomon's- seal (Maianthemum stellatum), common cat-tail (Typha latifolia), willow-herb (Epilobium leptophyllum), bedstraw (Galium tinctorium), sensitive fern (Onoclea sensibilis), jewelweed (Impatiens capensis), swamp thistle (Cirsium muticum), and Greek valerian (Polemonium reptans). Rank Justification Critically imperiled in the jurisdiction because of extreme rarity or because of some factor(s) such as very steep declines making it especially vulnerable to extirpation from the jurisdiction. Identification Presence of calcareous indicator plant species such as Atlantic sedge (Carex sterilis), sedge (Carex tetanica), and mountain-mint (Pycnanthemum virginianum) Peat is usually present. Dominance of grass-like plants Surface water pH is between 6.0 and 7.9 during the growing season. Characteristic Species Herbs Prairie sedge (Carex prairea) Atlantic sedge (Carex sterilis) Wood's sedge (Carex tetanica) Mountain-mint (Pycnanthemum virginianum) Blue vervain (Verbena hastata) Starflower (Maianthemum stellatum) Common cat-tail (Typha latifolia) Willow-herb (Epilobium leptophyllum) Bedstraw (Galium tinctorium) Sensitive fern (Onoclea sensibilis) Jewelweed (Impatiens capensis) Swamp thistle (Cirsium muticum) Spreading Jacob's-ladder (Polemonium reptans) Baltic rush (Juncus arcticus var. littoralis) Spotted joe-pye-weed (Eutrochium maculatum) Exotic Species Common reed (Phragmites australis ssp.

The History and Eponymy of the Common Name Joe-Pye-Weed for Eutrochium Species (Asteraceae)
2017 THE GREAT LAKES BOTANIST 177 JOE PYE, JOE PYE’S LAW, AND JOE-PYE-WEED: THE HISTORY AND EPONYMY OF THE COMMON NAME JOE-PYE-WEED FOR EUTROCHIUM SPECIES (ASTERACEAE) Richard B. Pearce James S. Pringle 1025½ 4th Street Royal Botanical Gardens Galena, Illinois 61036-2609, U.S.A. P.O. Box 399 [email protected] Hamilton, Ontario, Canada L8N 3H8 [email protected] ABSTRACT Published accounts have differed greatly with regard to the origin of the common name Joe-Pye- weed, which is applied to Eutrochium spp. (Asteraceae: Eupatorieae). Discrepancies have long ex - isted as to the race of the man for whom Joe-Pye-weed was named, the century and the part of the country in which he lived, and even whether the plant name was derived from the name of any per - son, real or fictional. Our investigation has indicated that this plant name is from the cognomen of Joseph Shauquethqueat, an 18th- and early 19th-century Mohican sachem, who lived successively in the Mohican communities at Stockbridge, Massachusetts, and New Stockbridge, New York. KEYwORDS : Eutrochium, common name, Joe-Pye-weed, Shauquethqueat INTRODUCTION The common name Joe-Pye-weed is applied collectively to a group of closely related North American species in the family Asteraceae, tribe Eupatorieae, his - torically included in Eupatorium L. but now generally segregated as Eutrochium Raf. , following studies by Schilling et al. (1999) and Lamont (2004). Several other vernacular names have been applied to these plants in the past, but, as noted by Borland (1964), the name Joe-Pye-weed is the only one that remains in common use.

Terrestrial & Palustrine Plant Communities of Pennsylvania 2Nd
Terrestrial & Palustrine Plant Communities of Pennsylvania 2nd Ed. Section 2 Palustrine Communities Palustrine Forests Coniferous Palustrine Forests Black Spruce – Tamarack Palustrine Woodland System: Palustrine Subsystem: Woodland PA Ecological Group(s): Basin Wetland Global Rank: G3G5 State Rank: S2 General Description This describes a group of wetland woodlands found mostly in glacially formed, ice-block depressions (kettleholes) of small, higher-elevation watersheds of the glaciated regions of Pennsylvania and in cold- air pockets of drainages at higher elevations of the Unglaciated Allegheny Plateau. These wetlands are dominated by a mixture of black spruce (Picea mariana) and tamarack (Larix laricina). These are trees of short stature (<30 feet) growing as a sparse overstory (<40% cover). The substrate consists of deep, poorly decomposed peat. The woodland is often found interior (i.e., closer to the middle of the wetland) to the Black Spruce-Tamarack Peatland Forest and on the edge of the low-shrub bog. There is generally very little groundwater or surface water enrichment in these systems, resulting in nutrient stressed, stunted trees. Other trees that may occur include gray birch (Betula populifolia) and red maple (Acer rubrum). The sparse woodland gives way to tall black spruce and tamarack (Black Spruce – Tamarack Peatland Forest) away from the bog mat and this peatland forest gives way to a fringe of hemlock and other tall trees at the outer edge of the wetland where organic soils thin and become mineral.
