The smooth dark gray bark is extremely showy and adds significant winter interest. Landscape Attributes Tea Olive is a dense multi-stemmed evergreen shrub with a shapely form and gracefully arching branches. Its average texture blends into the landscape, but can be balanced by one or two finer or coarser trees or shrubs Tea Olive in bloom for an effective composition. Photo courtesy of NetPS Plant Finder This is a relatively low maintenance shrub, and is best pruned in late winter once the threat of extreme cold has passed.

  • Version Februar 2016 Masterplan Botanische Gärten Der Universität
    Version Februar 2016 Masterplan Botanische Gärten der Universität Bonn 2011—2018 Masterplan 2.0 – 2016 Präambel Nach der Leitungsübernahme und im Vorlauf zum 200-jährigen Gartenjubiläum erfolgt eine Generalplanung für den Zeitraum 2011 - 2018. Die Entwicklung einer kohärenten Gesamtstrategie ist die Basis einer gerichteten, inhaltlichen und ästhetischen Weiterentwicklung der Gärten. Diese Strategie umfasst die gestalterischen Planungen innerhalb der drei Gärten. Darüber hinaus werden die drei Gärten aber auch in eine Gesamtstrategie eingebettet, in der jedem Garten eigene und den anderen Gärten komplementäre Schwerpunkte zugewiesen werden. Der Masterplan ist die administrative, inhaltliche und gestalterische Umsetzung der Mission der Botanischen Gärten der Universität Bonn und dient der Weiterentwicklung der Gärten zu Sammlungen „für die Botanik in ihrem gesamten Umfange“. Als notwendige Basis für diese gärtnerische Entwicklung werden allgemeine Festlegungen zum Thema gute gärtnerische Praxis gemacht sowie eine Sammlungsstrategie formuliert. Der Masterplan gewährleistet Planungssicherheit und –effizienz und ist die Grundlage für die Priorisierung und Zeitplanung der Maßnahmen, den sinnvollen Einsatz der finanziellen Mittel sowie für die Erstellung der detaillierten und ausformulierten Umsetzungsdokumente für die individuellen Gartenbereiche. Die Festlegungen des Masterplanes sind als allgemeine Richtlinien zu verstehen. Die Details der Umsetzung werden von Gartenleitung vor, während und nach der Umsetzung an die jeweiligen Gegebenheiten

Hesperelaea is a monotypic Oleaceae genus that was collected only once, 140 years ago on Guadalupe Island, Mexico. This lineage is almost certainly extinct, and has been considered an insular paleoendemic of unknown relationship within subtribe Oleinae. Here, a genome skimming approach was attempted on the H. palmeri specimen to generate genomic data in order to interpret the biogeographic history of Hesperelaea in a phylogenetic framework. Despite highly degraded DNA, we obtained the complete plastome, the nuclear ribosomal DNA cluster (nrDNA), and partial sequences of low-copy genes. Six plastid regions and nrDNA internal transcribed spacers were used for phylogenetic estimations of subtribe Oleinae, including data from previous studies.

  • T H E P L a N T H U N T E R S Plantejægerne JAGTEN PÅ DET
    T h e P l a n t H u n t e r s Plantejægerne JAGTEN PÅ DET GRØNNE GULD Preben Escherich Holkjær Den allerførste gang, planteindsamling blev nævnt, er for hele 3.000 år siden og hænger sammen med krig og erobring. Et eksempel er den ægyptiske dronning Hatshepsut (1490-1469 f.kr.), der erobrede Nubien og som bl.a. fik sine soldater til at bringe myrra med tilbage til Ægypten. Der findes også et brev fra den assyriske konge, Tiglat Pilesar I (ca. 1100 f.kr.), hvori han stolt berettede, at han havde hjemført såvel ceder som buksbom fra de lande, han havde erobret. En anden vidt berømt feltherre var Alexander den Store. Alexander havde som ung været elev hos den navnkundige Aristoteles. Da han senere begav sig ud på erobrings- togter, skal han efter sigende have sendt bl.a. planter og dyr til sin tidligere læreme- ster. Nogle af de planter, som Alexander opdagede, var citron og banan. Romerne, som var meget havebevidste, tog også planter med hjem fra deres kolonier, ligesom de bragte hjemlige planter med sig til de lande, de erobrede og besatte. I Kina har man allerede nævnt rhododendron i det 5. århundrede. Pæonen var en vigtig plante i mytologien. Den var opkaldt efter Pæeon, der var læge for guderne på Olympen. Pæonen er blevet brugt som medicinsk plante i mindst 2000 år. Den er også blevet brugt i parfumefremstillingen. Desuden har man anvendt den under fremstilling af farvestof. De første, der fik øjnene op for pæoner, var kineserne. Man har dyrket pæoner i Kina i de sidste 1500 år.

  • The Olive Family in Cultivation
    ARNOLDIA A continuation of the BULLETIN OF POPULAR INFORMATION of the Arnold Arboretum, Harvard University VOLUME 25 JUNE 11, 19F)5 NUMBERS 3-4 THE OLIVE FAMILY IN CULTIVATION people who are interested in plants have some idea of what consti- MOSTtutes a species and are aware that in biological classifications they are grouped together into genera, but it is not so generally known that related genera are brought together to constitute families. The olive, Olea europaea, is the spe- cies europaea in the genus Olea, which, together with several closely related gen- era, make up the family Oleaceae (the suffix - aceae indicating that it is a family). Quite a number of families are readily recognizable, for example, the orchid, grass and daisy families but others are much more diverse in appearance and in- clude plants which would not, at first, be thought of as being related. Such a family is the Oleaceae, containing the lilac, ash, fringe-tree, Forsythia, Osman- thus and jasmine, to mention a few of the constituent genera. How big is this family and how is it characterized? The total number of spe- cies can only be estimated since much research yet remains to be done, not only m reviewing those species described during the last 200 years, but in examining new material gathered on expeditions to little-known areas of the world, especially in the tropics. One may safely say, however, that altogether there are between 400 and 500 species. The number of genera is even more a matter of opinion but 22 is the most likely figure, which, taken together with the species number, shows that the Oleaceae is relatively small compared with most of the families of flow- ering plants.
