  • Postharvest Storage and Handling of Ranunculus Asiaticus Dried Tuberous Roots
    POSTHARVEST STORAGE AND HANDLING OF RANUNCULUS ASIATICUS DRIED TUBEROUS ROOTS A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Christopher Brian Cerveny January 2011 © 2011 Christopher Brian Cerveny POSTHARVEST STORAGE AND HANDLING OF RANUNCULUS ASIATICUS DRIED TUBEROUS ROOTS Christopher B. Cerveny, Ph. D. Cornell University 2011 Ranunculus asiaticus is an ornamental flowering plant with potential to be more widely used by the floriculture industry. Unfortunately, growers are faced with many challenges when producing these plants from their dry tuberous roots following storage; including poor sprouting, non-uniform growth, disease issues upon planting, as well as inconsistent cultural recommendations and lack of proper storage and handling protocols. Several experiments were conducted to determine the influence of temperature and relative humidity during storage on growth and quality of R. asiaticus plants. From our experiments it can be concluded that R. asiaticus tubers store best under low relative humidity and cool temperatures (above freezing). Also important from a storage perspective, unlike other flower bulbs, we show that R. asiaticus tuberous roots are not susceptible to ethylene damage while in the dry state. Prior to planting, tubers should be submerged in room-temperature water at around 20 oC, for 24 h, and then provided a fungicide treatment. We have shown that proper hydration temperature for R. asiaticus tuberous roots is critical for optimal growth. By following the protocol generated from our experiments, many of the production challenges associated with R. asiaticus tuberous roots may be avoided.

    Southwest Turkey A Greentours Trip Report 21st March – 2nd April 2010 Led by Başak Gardner Day 1 Journey to Antalya 21.03.10 I met the group at the airport and directly drove to the hotel. It was around 10 pm. Day 2 Journey to Ibradı 22.03.10 With good news from the meteorology the tour started. Alpine Swifts were flying around and Yellow-vented Bulbuls were singing from the roof as we were having our breakfast by the pool. A very short visit to the bank to change and get some money gave a chance for the group to take some pictures of the castle walls and gate. We even did some botanizing. The walls of the very old houses in the old town were almost covered by Cymbalaria longipes. We were on the road before 10 am and our first stop was by a graveyard where Pyrus serikensis, which is an endangered endemic pear tree, was in full bloom. But the main plant we were looking for was a bit over, however we managed to find some fresh reticulately-patterned Iris masia. Along with these were some Muscari comosum, Anemone coronaria and a single plant of Gladiolus italicus. Val spotted our first butterfly an Eastern Festoon and both Large White and Orange Tip were also seen as well as Danford’s Lizard. We made another stop both to have lunch and to look for some Ophrys. Along an old track by the picnic site we encountered many Ophrys mammosa spikes in good flower. We had a good lunch with some Turkish tea our driver prepared for us among the Bellis annua flowers.

  • Trecanna Nursery Is a New Plant Nursery Set on Cornish Slopes of The
    Trecanna’s Choice Trecanna Nursery is a family-run plant nursery owned by Mark & Karen Wash and set on Cornish slopes of the Tamar Valley, specialising in unusual bulbs & perennials, Crocosmias and other South African plants, and Sempervivums. Each month Mark will write a feature on some of his very favourite plants. NEW OPENING HOURS - Trecanna Nursery is now open from Wednesday to Saturday, plus Bank Holidays throughout the year, from 10am to 5pm, (or phone to arrange a visit at other times). There are currently over 160 varieties of potted less- usual bulbs plus over 80 varieties of Crocosmia ready for sale – this is the best time to pick up the rarer varieties. Trecanna Nursery is located approx. 2 miles north of Gunnislake. Follow the Brown signs from opposite the Donkey Park on the A390, Callington to Gunnislake road. Tel: 01822 834680. Email: [email protected] ‘Bring On The Anemones’ I would guess that somewhere or other, all of us have at least one form of Anemone tucked away in our garden, whether we know it or not. In all, there are around 120 species and they vary enormously from tiny rock-garden plants to the tall herbaceous perennials and can flower as early as February or as late as October. In the wild they come from a wide range of habitats mainly in the Northern Hemisphere but a few also come from further South. There is some doubt as to where the name “Anemone” originally comes from. Some believe that is derived from the Greek word “Anemos”, meaning Wind – this eludes to the way that the flowers tend to shake in the gentlest of breezes.

  • ANKARA– TURKEY FLORA of SOĞUKSU NATIONAL PARK Fragaria Vesca (Wild Strawberry- Yabani Çilek)
    SOĞUKSU NATIONAL PARK ANKARA– TURKEY FLORA OF SOĞUKSU NATIONAL PARK Fragaria vesca (Wild Strawberry- Yabani Çilek) Wild strawberry is a common creeping plant that grows spontaneously in forests, fields, lawns, forest edges, and streamsides (just about anywhere). Wild strawberries bloom from April to June. As a difference it is smaller than garden strawberry. Kingdom :Plant Division :Magnoliophyta Order :Rosales Family :Rosaceae Genus :Fragaria Species :vesca ssp. brekteata Rubus fruticosus (European Blackberry- Adi Böğürtlen) Blackberry bush is the common name for perennial species. It reveals itself next to the forests and heathlands. Some types of them grow like an ivy or with running stem on ground. Kingdom :Plantae Division :Angiosperms Class :Rosids Order :Rosales Family :Rosaceae Genus :Rubus Species :Rubus fruticosus Campanula ekimiana (Bellflower-Çan Çiçeği) It got its name with the reference of its bell-shaped blossoms. It can be come across in the meadow. The blooming time of this plant is from July through September. The blossoms can be seen in violet-blue and white colors. The leaves look narrow and toothed. Kingdom:Plantae Phylum :Angiosperms Class :Asterids Order :Asterales Family :Campanulaceae Genus :Campanula Species :Campanula ekimiana Digitalis lamarckii (Foxglove- Yüksük Otu) It is an unusual plant, originating from Northern Turkey. Much shorter than the other average foxglove. It is perennial and the blooming time of this plant May to late summer. It can’t grow in shaded areas so it likes sun. Caution! All plant parts toxic if eaten.

  • Southern Garden History Plant Lists
    Southern Plant Lists Southern Garden History Society A Joint Project With The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation September 2000 1 INTRODUCTION Plants are the major component of any garden, and it is paramount to understanding the history of gardens and gardening to know the history of plants. For those interested in the garden history of the American south, the provenance of plants in our gardens is a continuing challenge. A number of years ago the Southern Garden History Society set out to create a ‘southern plant list’ featuring the dates of introduction of plants into horticulture in the South. This proved to be a daunting task, as the date of introduction of a plant into gardens along the eastern seaboard of the Middle Atlantic States was different than the date of introduction along the Gulf Coast, or the Southern Highlands. To complicate maters, a plant native to the Mississippi River valley might be brought in to a New Orleans gardens many years before it found its way into a Virginia garden. A more logical project seemed to be to assemble a broad array plant lists, with lists from each geographic region and across the spectrum of time. The project’s purpose is to bring together in one place a base of information, a data base, if you will, that will allow those interested in old gardens to determine the plants available and popular in the different regions at certain times.
