Catalogue of Woody Plants 2011 ARBORETUM WESPELAAR and garden of HERKENRODE CATALOGUE OF WOODY PLANTS 2011 Foundation Arboretum Wespelaar, Grote Baan 63, B-3150 Haacht-Wespelaar Tel. +32-16-608.641; fax +32-16-601.353; email [email protected] www.arboretumwespelaar.be Catalogue of Woody Plants Arboretum Wespelaar and garden of Herkenrode Arboretum Wespelaar vzw, a non profit organisation, was set up in 2001 to manage the botanical collections of some 19 ha of the estate of Philippe de Spoelberch in Wespelaar situated to the North of the garden of Herkenrode. Since 2005 this task is now the responsibility of Foundation Arboretum Wespelaar. The present Catalogue of Woody Plants, lists the plants growing in Herkenrode and the Arboretum Wespelaar, both of which are open to the public, from time to time, to groups on request or to members of asbl Jardins Ouverts de Belgique – Open Tuinen van België vzw. In this printed version of the catalogue, several fields have been truncated in order to reduce to one line the relevant data. The digital database is available on the website. In 2001 werd de vereniging Arboretum Wespelaar vzw opgericht met als voornaamste doelstelling de verdere uitbouw en het onderhoud van de dendrologische verzamelingen van het arboretum van Wespelaar. Dit Arboretum is gelegen op het domein van Philippe de Spoelberch net ten noorden van de tuin “Herkenrode” en is ongeveer 19 ha groot. Sedert 2005 werd deze taak overgenomen door Stichting Arboretum Wespelaar . De raad van bestuur van de vereniging heeft tot doel gesteld het Arboretum op regelmatige tijdstippen open te stellen voor een geïnteresseerd publiek van zodra de nodige faciliteiten beschikbaar zijn. Deze ‘Catalogue of Woody Plants’ bevat de inventaris van alle houtachtige planten die men kan terugvinden te Herkenrode of het Arboretum Wespelaar. Beide domeinen zijn op welbepaalde data toegankelijk voor de leden van de vzw Open Tuinen van België. Ook groepen zijn welkom maar enkel op aanvraag. Verschillende velden van het originele gegevensbestand zijn afgekort of weggelaten in deze gedrukte versie van de catalogus. De digitale versie van de databank kan geraadpleegd worden op de website. L’association sans but lucratif Arboretum Wespelaar fut constituée en 2001 pour assurer la gestion de quelques 19 ha de collections botaniques situées sur la propriété de Philippe de Spoelberch, à Wespelaar. Depuis 2005, cette tache à été reprise par la Fondation Arboretum Wespelaar . Le conseil d'administration de la société a décidé d'ouvrir l'Arboretum pour un public intéressé, à des moments réguliers, dès que toutes les facilités sont en place. Le présent catalogue reprend l’ensemble des plantes ligneuses vivantes, dans le jardin de Herkenrode et l’Arboretum Wespelaar. Ceux-ci sont ouverts au public, aux groupes sur demande et, occasionnellement, dans le cadre des journées portes ouvertes organisées par Jardins Ouverts de Belgique asbl. La version imprimée de l’inventaire a volontairement tronqué certains champs pour permettre de ne présenter qu’une ligne par spécimen. La version numérique de la base de données peut être consultée sur le site.

Such entries can originate through purchase or transplanting from own nursery. The plant may have been growing for several years already (as seedlings, cuttings, etc.) in the various nurseries at Herkenrode. Plants will only receive an accession number when they definitely enter the collection. Name: THE PLANT'S BOTANICAL NAME This field contains the name for genus, species, subspecies, variety, form and cultivar, in that order. For practical reasons, it was decided to avoid splitting the denomination over several computer fields. The result is that one has a condensed listing with all relevant information in one computer field. Nomenclature has been very much simplified. Abbreviations have therefore been necessary, mostly for the named cultivars. For plants of wild origin provenance data are included and take following form: collector and number, location, country, altitude. Loc: LOCATION This 3-digit code relates to the overall plan of "Herkenrode + Arboretum Wespelaar", Garden (A - Z, 1-100, and 300 to 500), Arboretum (100 to 299). The numbering of the locations is by natural boundaries. D: DATE OF PLANTATION These 2 digits indicate the year of plantation in the stated location ("Loc"). If plants are moved within the collection after their introduction, this date will be changed accordingly. Src: SOURCE OF PLANT This 3-digit code relates to the appendix of sources. "WLD" stands for plants collected in the wild, directly or indirectly, location of collection will be found under DATA. S: STATUS This field has been expanded to describe the growth condition of living plants: "0" The plant is dead: see under data for reason, date, etc. It could have been moved to another collection or given away (dead plants are not included in this Catalogue) "1" The plant is in poor condition at the time of inventory. This may be eventually corrected in later inventories if the plant's condition improves. "2" Damaged, cut back (storms, diseases, frost etc...). "3" Lack of vigour, poorly adapted, die back. "4" Normal growth. "6" Is used for synonyms H: HARDINESS RATING AT HERKENRODE AND ARBORETUM WESPELAAR A: hardy B: leaf damage C: branch damage D: cut to the ground, recovering since E: killed outright V: VERIFICATION OF TAXONOMY T: typical V: verified C: close to the type (minor deviations) H: hybrid of the type (50 % deviation) K: hybrid of known parentage ?: requires further determination X: error to be determined and changed DATA: One may find further refinements: A+: leaf and flower bud hardy at Herkenrode and/or Arboretum A-: flower-buds frozen B+: light leaf damage (to evergreen plants) B-: heavy leaf damage, total defoliation C+: light wood damage C-: major branches die back Codes for source of plants in Herkenrode and Arboretum Wespelaar inventory ARN ARNOLD ARBORETUM: Boston Mass., USA, http://www.arboretum.harvard.edu/ AUS DAVID AUSTIN ROSES: Wolverhampton, GB, http://www.davidaustinroses.com/ BEA PETER BEALES ROSES: Attleborough Norfolk, GB, http://www.classicroses.co.uk/ BER BERTY, roseraie de: Rose nursery in Ardèche, F-07110 LARGENTIERE, http://www.roseraie-de-berty.com/ BIO BIOPLANT in vitro: Rue Eysden Mines 43a, Grand Halleux, Mr Grifsnée, BIS DE BISSCHOP: Camelia propagator in Gent, went out of business in 1987, produced up to 30.000 camellia's per annum BOD BODNANT GARDEN: Wales, GB, http://www.bodnantgarden.co.uk/index.html BRS BRESSINGHAM GARDENS, Diss, Norfolk, England, http://www.bressinghamgardens.com/ BUL BULK, Mark, specialist nursery,Boskoop, creator of Magnolia 'Leda', http://www.bulk-boskoop.nl/nl/ BUR BURNCOOSE Nurseries: Caerhays Estate, Cornwall, UK http://www.burncoose.co.uk CAS CASTEELS Roses, Putte, Belgium, http://www.casteelsrozen.be/ CEC CECE: CHOTEAU, Benoit , Pépinières CECE, 7130 Binche (Bray), http://www.cece-choteau.be/fr/index.php DBL DE BELDER: gifts or purchase from their propagation at Kalmthout or Hemelrijk, often WLD collected plants DCL Dr. DE CLERCQ: amateur propagator of rhodo etc., Nevele near Gent, http://www.pascuagarden.be/ Belgium, DDH DOMINIQUE DUHAUT: wholesale propagator of unusual plants, Aalter near Brugge, DEL DELBARD, France, roses, http://www.delbard.com/ DEV DAMIEN DEVOS: rare trees and shrubs, Anzegem, http://www.damiendevos.be/ DHO DIETRICH HOBBIE NURSERIES : Oldenburg, Germany DIV DIVERS: various suppliers, see under data for eventual name or further specification of origin, EDW EDELWEISS, roses EIS EISENHUT NURSERIES: Switserland, propagator of magnolias from Sir http://www.eisenhut.ch/ Peter Smither's at Vico Morcote, ESV ESVELD: Firma C.Esveld, Boskoop, Nederland, http://www.esveld.nl/index.html EVE ESPACE VERT ET ENVIRONNEMENT: near Fontainebleau, managed by Edouard d'Ardeev, many rhododendrons from seed open poll.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The Nothofagus genus comprises 10 species recorded in the South American subcontinent. All are important tree species in the ex- tratropical, Mediterranean, temperate and boreal forests of Chile and Argentina. This paper presents a summary of data on the phyto- coenotical behaviour of these species and relates the plant communities to the measurable or inferable thermoclimatic and ombrocli- matic conditions which affect them. Our aim is to update the phytosociological knowledge of the South American temperate forests and to assess their suitability as climatic bioindicators by analysing the behaviour of those species belonging to their most represen- tative genus.

  • Native Trees of Georgia
    1 NATIVE TREES OF GEORGIA By G. Norman Bishop Professor of Forestry George Foster Peabody School of Forestry University of Georgia Currently Named Daniel B. Warnell School of Forest Resources University of Georgia GEORGIA FORESTRY COMMISSION Eleventh Printing - 2001 Revised Edition 2 FOREWARD This manual has been prepared in an effort to give to those interested in the trees of Georgia a means by which they may gain a more intimate knowledge of the tree species. Of about 250 species native to the state, only 92 are described here. These were chosen for their commercial importance, distribution over the state or because of some unusual characteristic. Since the manual is intended primarily for the use of the layman, technical terms have been omitted wherever possible; however, the scientific names of the trees and the families to which they belong, have been included. It might be explained that the species are grouped by families, the name of each occurring at the top of the page over the name of the first member of that family. Also, there is included in the text, a subdivision entitled KEY CHARACTERISTICS, the purpose of which is to give the reader, all in one group, the most outstanding features whereby he may more easily recognize the tree. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The author wishes to express his appreciation to the Houghton Mifflin Company, publishers of Sargent’s Manual of the Trees of North America, for permission to use the cuts of all trees appearing in this manual; to B. R. Stogsdill for assistance in arranging the material; to W.

  • Research Reports Response of Five Hydrangea Species to Foliar Salt Spray1
    Research Reports Response of Five Hydrangea Species to Foliar Salt Spray1 N. Barbara Conolly2, Nina L. Bassuk3, and Patrick F. MacRae Jr.4 Urban Horticulture Institute, Department of Horticulture Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853 Abstract Hydrangeas are popular seaside plants; however, other than in anecdotal reports, there are no studies measuring their relative tolerance to salt spray. We examined response of ten cultivars and one subspecies of Hydrangea representing fi ve species to foliar-applied salt solutions to recommend selections for seaside landscapes. Objectives were to determine whether there are differences in responses to salt spray among cultivars and species, and to determine whether varying concentrations of sodium chloride differentially damaged the plants. Plants were treated with a full-strength (ion concentration approximate to seawater) salt solution, a half-strength salt solution, or a control of tap water. Plants were rated after seven once-weekly applications based on percentage necrotic leaf area, an aesthetically and physiologically important symptom of damage. Cultivars of Hydrangea macrophylla and Hydrangea serrata were more tolerant of full-strength salt spray than cultivars of H. paniculata, H. anomala and H. arborescens. At half strength but not full strength, H. anomala ssp. petiolaris was most tolerant. Hydrangea macrophylla and H. serrata were the second most tolerant of half-strength applications. Hydrangea macrophylla or Hydrangea serrata should be planted where maritime salt spray will occur. Index words: seawater aerosol, NaCl, Hydrangeaceae. Species used in this study: Smooth hydrangea (Hydrangea arborescens L.) cultivars ‘Annabelle’, ‘Dardom’ White Dome®, ‘Hayes Starburst’; bigleaf hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla (Thunb.) Ser.) cultivars ‘Paris’ (Cityline™ series), ‘Nikko Blue’, ‘All Summer Beauty’; panicle hydrangea (Hydrangea paniculata Sieb.) cultivars ‘Limelight’, ‘Tardiva’; Hydrangea serrata (Thunb.) Ser.

  • Plant Records.Pub
    Watsonia 27 : 375–387 (2009) PLANT RECORDS 375 Plant Records Records for publication must be submitted to the appropriate Vice-county Recorder (see BSBI Year Book 2008 ), and not to the Editors. Following publication of the New Atlas of the British & Irish Flora and the Vice-county Census Catalogue , new criteria have been drawn up for the inclusion of records in Plant Records . (See BSBI News no. 95, January 2004 pp. 10 & 11). These are outlined below: • First records of all taxa (species, subspecies and hybrids) included in the VCCC, designated as native, archaeophyte, neophyte or casual. • First record since 1970 of the taxa above, except in the case of Rubus , Hieracium and Taraxacum . • Records demonstrating the rediscovery of all taxa published as extinct in the VCCC or subsequently. • Newly reported definite extinctions. • Deletions from the VCCC (e.g. through the discovery of errors, the redetermination of specimens etc.) NB – only those errors affecting VCCC entry. • New 10km square records for Rare and Scarce plants, defined as those species in the New Atlas mapped in the British Isles in 100 10km squares or fewer. (See BSBI News no. 95, January 2004 pp 36–43). Records for the subdivisions of vice-counties will not be treated separately; they must therefore be records for the vice-county as a whole. However, records will be accepted for the major islands in v.cc. 100, 102–104, 110 and 113. In the following list, records are arranged in the order given in the List of Vascular Plants of the British Isles and its supplements by D.

  • NOTES Watsonia 25 (2005) NORTH WALES SPECIES of RUBUS L
    Watsonia 25: 289–298 (2005) NOTES Watsonia 25 (2005) 289 Notes NORTH WALES SPECIES OF RUBUS L. (ROSACEAE) IN THE ISLE OF WIGHT In 1982 two sizeable populations of Rubus effrenatus Newton, a species up till then (and still) otherwise known only in north-west Wales, v.cc. 46–49, were discovered in the Isle of Wight, v.c. 10, at a distance of 11 km from each other. One population is near the Island’s southernmost tip, mainly among bracken along a crescent of gravel overlying the chalk on the north face of Head Down but with an outlying patch in a deep ‘green lane’ about 1·4 km to the north-west. The other site is towards the Island’s south-east corner, along a much-frequented public footpath forming the north boundary of Sandown Golf Course, a relic fragment of a once-extensive tract of partly- wooded acid ground that constituted Blackpan and Lake Commons. The species is unrepresented in Rubus collections made in these two localities by 19th century specialists in the genus, and that negative evidence, taken together with a subjective impression that both populations have expanded slightly in the years since their discovery, could be interpreted as indicating a relatively recent arrival in each case (Allen 2003). Though the two may have had independent origins, it is equally possible that one population has been derived from the other – in which case that on Head Down seems the more likely to be the parent colony. In 2002–4 two successive finds of another Rubus species provided a near-duplicate of this very unexpected national distribution pattern.

Hypericum also displays an ample variety of other biological actions, such as hypotensive, analgesic, anti-infective, anti-oxidant, and spasmolytic abilities. However, recent investigations highlighted that this species could be advantageous for the cure of other pathological situations, such as trigeminal neuralgia, as well as in the treatment of cancer. This review focuses on the in vitro and in vivo antitumor effects of St. John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum), its derivatives, and other Hypericum species in hematologic malignancies.
