MELAMPODIUM 'DERBY' Melampodium Divaricatum 'Derby' MELAMPODIUM 'DERBY' Melampodium divaricatum 'Derby' Characteristics Type: Annual Sun: Full sun Zone: 2 to 11 Water: Medium Height: 12 – 24 Inches Maintenance: Low Spread: 9 – 12 Inches Suggested Use: Annual, Naturalize Bloom Time: May to frost Flower: Showy Bloom Description: Yellow Culture Annual. Easily grown in average, evenly moist, well-drained soils in full sun. Needs consistent moisture, but prefers soils slightly on the dry side. Set seedlings or purchased plants out after last frost date. Although plants are quite tolerant of hot and humid summer weather, taller stems tend to flop in the heat of summer. Deadheading is not required. May self-seed in optimum growing conditions. Noteworthy Characteristics Melampodium divaricatum, commonly called melampodium or butter daisy, is an aster family annual that produces solitary daisy-like flowers (to 1” wide) with yellow rays and darker yellow centers from spring to fall on plants growing 12-24 inches tall. As the flowers fade, the stems branch to produce additional bloom. Light green, entire, oblong stem leaves on purplish stems. Nomenclature for melampodium is quite confusing. Some authorities list this plant to be synonymous with Leucanthemum paludosum (baby marguerite). However, L. paludosum is in reality a totally different plant: a 2-6 inch tall cool weather annual featuring daisy-like flowers with white rays and yellow centers and serrate foliage. 'Derby' is a compact bushy cultivar growing 12-18 inches tall, but produces an abundance of 1-inch golden-yellow daisy-like flowers throughout summer to first frost in a continuous and showy floral display. Problems No serious insect or disease problems. Susceptible to powdery mildew. Garden Uses Borders, beds, pots/containers. Cutting gardens.

  • SALT TOLERANT PLANTS Recommended for Pender County Landscapes
    North Carolina Cooperative Extension NC STATE UNIVERSITY SALT TOLERANT PLANTS Recommended for Pender County Landscapes Pender County Cooperative Extension Urban Horticulture Leaflet 14 Coastal Challenges Plants growing at the beach are subjected to environmental conditions much different than those planted further inland. Factors such as blowing sand, poor soils, high temperatures, and excessive drainage all influence how well plants perform in coastal landscapes, though the most significant effect on growth is salt spray. Most plants will not tolerate salt accumulating on their foliage, making plant selection for beachfront land- scapes particularly challenging. Salt Spray Salt spray is created when waves break on the beach, throwing tiny droplets of salty water into the air. On-shore breezes blow this salt laden air landward where it comes in contact with plant foliage. The amount of salt spray plants receive varies depending on their proximity to the beachfront, creating different vegetation zones as one gets further away from the beachfront. The most salt-tolerant species surviving in the frontal dune area. As distance away from the ocean increases, the level of salt spray decreases, allowing plants with less salt tolerance to survive. Natural Protection The impact of salt spray on plants can be lessened by physically blocking salt laden winds. This occurs naturally in the maritime forest, where beachfront plants protect landward species by creating a layer of foliage that blocks salt spray. It is easy to see this effect on the ocean side of maritime forest plants, which are “sheared” by salt spray, causing them to grow at a slant away from the oceanfront.

  • Chromosome Numbers in Compositae, XII: Heliantheae
    SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO BOTANY 0 NCTMBER 52 Chromosome Numbers in Compositae, XII: Heliantheae Harold Robinson, A. Michael Powell, Robert M. King, andJames F. Weedin SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION PRESS City of Washington 1981 ABSTRACT Robinson, Harold, A. Michael Powell, Robert M. King, and James F. Weedin. Chromosome Numbers in Compositae, XII: Heliantheae. Smithsonian Contri- butions to Botany, number 52, 28 pages, 3 tables, 1981.-Chromosome reports are provided for 145 populations, including first reports for 33 species and three genera, Garcilassa, Riencourtia, and Helianthopsis. Chromosome numbers are arranged according to Robinson’s recently broadened concept of the Heliantheae, with citations for 212 of the ca. 265 genera and 32 of the 35 subtribes. Diverse elements, including the Ambrosieae, typical Heliantheae, most Helenieae, the Tegeteae, and genera such as Arnica from the Senecioneae, are seen to share a specialized cytological history involving polyploid ancestry. The authors disagree with one another regarding the point at which such polyploidy occurred and on whether subtribes lacking higher numbers, such as the Galinsoginae, share the polyploid ancestry. Numerous examples of aneuploid decrease, secondary polyploidy, and some secondary aneuploid decreases are cited. The Marshalliinae are considered remote from other subtribes and close to the Inuleae. Evidence from related tribes favors an ultimate base of X = 10 for the Heliantheae and at least the subfamily As teroideae.

[email protected] Abstract Background: The ability of weeds to thrive in the stressful environments created by human disturbance has been explained mainly by a set of life history traits, such as short life cycles, generalist habits, as well as early and sustained reproduction. However, the evidence that these traits are better represented in weeds than in related species of other environments is mixed. To explore the relationship between weeds and the life history traits, we used the fact that plants are weedy to different degrees because of the heterogeneous nature of environments produced by disturbance. In a group of four congeners, we studied some growth and reproduction parameters in relation to the degree of synanthropy of the species, determined previously.

  • T REYISION of the GENUS ACANTHOSPERMUM
    " , • \ REYISION OF THE GENUS ACANTHOSPERMUM. By S. F. Bun. INTRODUCTION. The genus ACIlnthospem,um, a member of the Melampodioid Heli­ antheae, was established by Schrank in 1819 on the single species A. brasilum. In the following year the same species, which had been originally published by Loelling in 1758 as Melampodium aU8tralt, was again described and figured as the type of a new genus, Centro­ Bptrlnum, in the Nova Genera et Species of Humboldt, Bonpland, and Kunth, and in 1825 it became the type of the genus Orcya of Velloso; while the genus Echinodium of Poiteau, published as a synonym by Cassini in 1829, was likewise based on this species. In De Candolle's Prodromus, in 1836, four species of Acanthospermum were recognized, divided between two sections based on the shape of the fruits. With the exception of two new species described from the Galapagos Islands by Robinson and Greenman, no other species of the genus have been published. In the present revision three neW species from South America are described, bringing the total number of valid speeies in the genus to eight. All the species of Acantho8permum are natives of America, but'with t their spiny X an!hium-like fruits they are easily transported, and two have reached the Old World as widespread if scattered introductions. A. hispidum, found in SOUGh America from Colombia and VeIlezuela to Argentina, and native over at least a part of this region, occurs as a weed in the southern United States as far north as New Jersey, in Honduras, Nicaragua, and the Lesser Antilles, and in S6n6gal, Angola, Natal, and Hawaii.
