I Volume 1 Hard Cultivars & European Species Part 1: A-C 1 Preamble In 1970 , The Heather Society (founded in 1963) was charged by the International Commission for the Nomenclatureof CultivatedPlants to undertakethe role of InternationalRegistration Authority for a denormnallon class comprising five generawithin Ericaceae, namelyAndromeda , Bruckenthalia, Calluna,Daboecia andEnca These plants are generally called "heathers· or "heaths" in English-speakingregions . The role of an International Registration Authority is defined by the International code of nomenclature for cultivated plants (ICNCP), the current edition being that published in 1995. This checklist of cultivar names within the denominationclass has beencompiled from a numberof sources It has its origins in the work of D. C. McClintock (Registrar1970-1994) whose card files were compiledover many decades and provided an invaluable source of information. The Heather Societyalso acknowledgesthe significant contributions of the following dedicated people; T A. Julian (Vice-president}, the late A. W. Jones (Registrar, 1994--1998), Mrs J. Julian (Registrar 1999-) and R. J. Cleevely (Honorary Secretary). Many other members of The Heather Society,as well as other botanists,horticulturists and individualswith interes1s in, and knowledgeof, these plants, have also contributed. The HeatherSociety also acknowledgesthe substantial assistance given by its affiliated societies and their members, particularlyH . Blum and J. Flecken(Netherlands ), J. Schroder and K. Kramer (Germany}, Mrs B. Johansson (Sweden)and the late A. Dome (U.S.A.). This checklist is derived directly from a computerised database that was devised and is managed by D. J. Small. The entries in the databasewere checkedand edrtedby Dr. E. C. Nelson. MrsA . Small(Administrator ofThe Heather Society), R. J. Cleevely and Mrs Maynard (Secretary to Mr McClintock) provided1nvaluabte assistance at all stages of the editing and productionof this checklist. . The research work for this checklist and its compilationwas funded, 1npart , by a generousgrant from the Stanley Smith Horticultural Trust.
