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.

According to previous studies, the northern species, present in Europe and the Mediterranean, form a paraphyletic, basal clade, and the southern species, present in South Africa, form a robust monophyletic group. In this work a molecular phylogenetic analysis from European and from Central and South African Erica species was performed using the chloroplast regions: trnL-trnL-trnF and 5´trnK-matK , as well as the nuclear DNA marker ITS, in order i) to state the monophyly of the northern and southern species, ii) to determine the phylogenetic relationships between the species and contrasting them with previous systematic research studies and iii) to compare the results provided from nuclear data and explore possible evolutionary patterns. All species were monophyletic except for the widely spread E. arborea , and E. manipuliflora . The paraphyly of the northern species was also confirmed, but three taxa from Central East Africa were polyphyletic, suggesting different episodes of colonization of this area.

  • Heathers and Heaths
    Heathers and Heaths Heathers and heaths are easy care evergreen plants that can give year-round garden color. With careful planning, you can have varieties in bloom every month of the year. Foliage colors include shades of green, gray, gold, and bronze; some varieties change color or have colored tips in the winter or spring. Flower colors are white and shades of pink, red, and purple. Heathers make excellent companions to rhododendrons and azaleas. They are also excellent in rock gardens or on slopes. Bees love traditional heaths and heathers; however, the new bud-bloomer Scotch heathers, whose flowers are long-lasting because they don’t open completely, do not provide good bee forage, nor do the new foliage-only series. Choose other varieties if that is a consideration. Heathers grow best in neutral to slightly acid soil with good drainage. A sandy soil mixed with compost or leaf mold is ideal. Heathers bloom best in full or partial sun. Plants will grow in a shady location but will not bloom as well and tend to get leggy. They will not do well in areas of hot reflected sunlight. To plant heather, work compost into the planting area, then dig a hole at least twice the width of the rootball. Partially fill with your amended soil and place the plant at the same level it grew in the container. Excess soil over the rootball will kill the plant. For the same reason, do not mulch too deeply or allow mulch to touch the trunks. Normally a spacing of 12-30” apart is good, depending on the variety.

Terms such as lignotuber, xylopodium and sobole, all referring to belowground bud-bearing structures, are used inconsistently in the literature. Key words: bud bank, fire-prone ecosystems, Because soil efficiently insulates meristems from the heat of fire, concealing buds below ground lignotuber, resprouting, rhizome, xylopodium. provides fitness benefits in fire-prone ecosystems. Thus, in these ecosystems, there is a remarkable diversity of bud-bearing structures. There are at least six locations where belowground buds are stored: roots, root crown, rhizomes, woody burls, fleshy

  • Heathers – Color for All Seasons
    Heathers – Color for All Seasons Written by Bob Cain, certified WSU Clallam County Master Gardener. Heathers represent one of the most versatile components in Pacific Northwest gardens. Not only are they well adapted to the climate and soil but they can also provide color in every season of the year. The term “heather” is often used to refer to several different plant types including true heathers (genus: Calluna), heaths (genus: Erica), Irish heaths (genus: Daboecia) and mountainheaths (genus: Phyllodoce). Heaths are typically lower growing and more compact than true heathers. They also spread outwards at a faster rate. Some heaths, however, can grow up to 10 to 20 feet high; these species, often called “tree heaths” due to their spectacular size, include Erica arborea, Erica lusitanica, Erica australis and Erica terminalis. Heathers (including all of the above plant types) flourish in cool, moist conditions and in soils which are slightly acidic. As a result, they are good companions to azaleas and rhododendrons which also thrive in acidic soils. Heathers grow best in peaty, acid soils but will tolerate all soils except those with high lime content. Heathers generally like full sun (at least 6 hours of sun each day); however, Irish heaths tolerate part shade and are well suited to garden areas that transition between sun and shade. The best planting times are March through May and then late September through late November. Young plants should be planted with the foliage almost touching the soil surface. Space plants 12 to 18 inches apart to allow for growth. Draw back mulch from the main stem.

In the past tenyears, thousands of two and three year old cypress trees have been killed in nursery plantings and many old establishedtrees in landscape and windbreak plantings have been lost.
