Deer Resistant Plants 2014 Deer are Disinclined to Eat These We cannot say “Deer Proof”... Figwort family Scrophulariaceae ...but here are a few perennials that stubbornly oppose being Snapdragon Antirrhinum spp. eaten. Some actually repel deer. Try these species first if you’re Slipperwort / Pocketbook Calceolaria falklandia on their migratory route or if you have a herd in your back yard. Turtle Head Chelone spp. Botanical taxonomy has always influenced the organization of Chinese Houses / Blue-Lips Collinsia spp. the Villager Nursery’s perennial benches. We tend to group Kenilworth Ivy Cymbalaria muralis plants by Family. Over the years we’ve derived a list of Twinspur Diascia spp. perennials which seem to have strong recalcitrance toward the Foxglove Digitalis spp. deer in this part of the Sierra. No surprise; we found certain Toadflax Linaria spp. plant families better than others at surviving predation.

  • The Phenology of an Urban Street Flora: a Transect Study C.D
    British & Irish Botany 2(1): 1–26, 2020 The phenology of an urban street flora: a transect study C.D. Preston Cambridge, England Corresponding author: [email protected] This pdf constitutes the Version of Record published on 26th February 2020 Abstract Vascular plants in flower along a fixed 3.8 km route in eight streets in a primarily residential area of urban Cambridge, U.K., were recorded at monthly intervals between January 2016 and December 2019. There was a consistent annual pattern over the four years; the number of flowering species was greatest in June or July but there were still appreciable numbers of species flowering when totals were at their lowest in February or March. Five annuals (Capsella bursa-pastoris, Euphorbia peplus, Poa annua, Senecio vulgaris, Stellaria media) and one perennial (Parietaria judaica) were very frequent and flowered from January to December. Perennial species showed greater variation through the year than annual species. In most months the number of flowering British native species exceeded the combined number of archaeophytes and neophytes, but the native total peaked earlier in the summer and then declined more rapidly than that of the introductions. The transect method appeared to be effective in identifying the main annual phenological trends and also revealed the effects of extreme weather on the patterns in some seasons. Keywords: annual; archaeophyte; Cambridge; native; neophyte; perennial; weather; weedkiller. Introduction In January 2016 I took part in the BSBI New Year Plant Hunt, in which participants were invited to spend up to three hours in the field listing the vascular plants they could find in flower (Marsh, 2016).

Beside the limitation imposed in the use of chemical tool, the whole approach in organic weed management should be substantially different. Full weed eradication shouldn’t be a goal (Blake, 1990), there are obviously conflicts between completely weed eradication and other aims of the organic system (Mattsson et al., 1990; Colquhoun & Bellinder, 1996).

  • Relative Ranking of Ornamental Flower Plants to Foraging Honey Bees (With Notes on Favorability to Bumble Bees)
    Relative Ranking of Ornamental Flower Plants to Foraging Honey Bees (With Notes on Favorability to Bumble Bees) Whitney Cranshaw Colorado State University Observations were made during the 2007-2009 growing seasons on the relative attractiveness of various flowering ornamental plants to honey bees (Apis mellifera). This information was collected so that honey bee favorability - or lack of favorability - may be considered in plant selection. The study was conducted by repeated visits to public garden plantings in Larimer, Denver, Adams, and Cheyenne counties. Gardens were chosen that had large mass plantings of numerous flowering plants so that comparisons could be made and included the Denver Botanic Garden, gardens at Colorado State University (PERC, Flower Demonstration Planting), Welby Gardens, and Cheyenne Botanic Garden. These sites also were chosen because plantings had identification labeling. Plantings were visited between 2 and 12 times between mid-June and mid-September. Evaluations were made by examining plants that were in flower for the presence of honey bees. A planting was then given a relative ranking based on honey bee numbers. A 0-3 scale was used: 3 - Heavily visited by foraging honey bees 2 - Moderately visited by honey bees and foraged 1 - Honey bees seen occasionally visiting flowers 0 - Honey bees do not forage at these flowers Data were collected from a total of 319 different plant entries durig this study. Variation in rankings between dates did occur; where this occurred from multiple ratings the final ranking was rounded up to a whole number. Numerous other bees and other insects were commonly seen on many plants.

  • Phylogeography of Western Mediterranean Cymbalaria
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Phylogeography of western Mediterranean Cymbalaria (Plantaginaceae) reveals two Received: 5 December 2017 Accepted: 19 November 2018 independent long-distance Published: xx xx xxxx dispersals and entails new taxonomic circumscriptions Pau Carnicero 1,2, Peter Schönswetter2, Pere Fraga Arguimbau3, Núria Garcia-Jacas4, Llorenç Sáez1,5 & Mercè Galbany-Casals1 The Balearic Islands, Corsica and Sardinia (BCS) constitute biodiversity hotspots in the western Mediterranean Basin. Oligocene connections and long distance dispersal events have been suggested to cause presence of BCS shared endemic species. One of them is Cymbalaria aequitriloba, which, together with three additional species, constitute a polyploid clade endemic to BCS. Combining amplifed fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) fngerprinting, plastid DNA sequences and morphometrics, we inferred the phylogeography of the group and evaluated the species’ current taxonomic circumscriptions. Based on morphometric and AFLP data we propose a new circumscription for C. fragilis to additionally comprise a group of populations with intermediate morphological characters previously included in C. aequitriloba. Consequently, we suggest to change the IUCN category of C. fragilis from critically endangered (CR) to near threatened (NT). Both morphology and AFLP data support the current taxonomy of the single island endemics C. hepaticifolia and C. muelleri. The four species had a common origin in Corsica-Sardinia, and two long-distance dispersal events to the Balearic Islands were inferred. Finally, plastid DNA data suggest that interspecifc gene fow took place where two species co-occur. Islands in the Mediterranean Basin harbour both high species diversity and endemism. For instance, from the around 5000 islands scattered in the Mediterranean Sea1 all the largest ones (i.e.

  • The Flora of Old Town Centres in Europe
    © Dietmar Brandes; download unter http://www.ruderal-vegetation.de/epub/index.html und www.zobodat.at THE FLORA OF OLD TOWN CENTRES IN EUROPE DIETMAR BRANDES Technische LJniversitiit Braunschweig, Universitatsbibliothek, Pockelsstr. 13, D-38106 Braunschweig, Germany Abstract The spontaneous floras of 66 old town centres have been mapped in different regions of Europe (Germany, France, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, and Portugal). Similarity as well as geographical variability of the old town floras are studied. Our investigations show that the number of common species in old town centres of central and/or West Europe is high. Similar climatic conditions in old towns of the western part of the mediterranean area also lead to relatively uniform stocks of plant species. Differences between the floras of old cities and old villages are pointed out. 1. Introduction In the last 3 decades there have been numerous papers concerned with the flora and veg- etation of European cities (review: Sukopp 1990). Urban areas are very heterogeneous and contain a large number of different habitats, which are usually sharply separated: old town centres, young housing estates, railway sites, industrial sites, highways, cemeteries, villages, dumping sites, fields, urban forests. This paper considers the old town centres, which differ from newer quarters in their long settlement and old buildings. One can assume that the floristic similarities between old to-yvn centres are high, as climatic and geographic differences are compensated - at least partly - by the similar and long-enduring use. The botanical exploration of towns started with old town centres 140 years ago. In 1855 Deakin studied the flora of the Colosseum of Rome and found 420 taxa growing spontane- ously upon its ruins.

In the quest for information of use to bumble bee conservation the potential of our flower-rich cities has been overlooked. The overall aim of this study was to determine the status and foraging requirements of bumble bees in the urban environment provided by the city of London, U.K. My principal findings are as follows. Six common species and three rare species were identified. The greatest diversity of Bombus species was found in the east of London. Garden and wasteland habitats attracted the greatest abundance of workers and diversity of Bombus species.
