  • The Functional Role of Birds As Pollinators in Southern Cape Fynbos
    The functional role of birds as pollinators in southern Cape fynbos. Kellyn J. Whitehead A thesis presented in fulfilment of the academic requirements for the degree of Masters of Science in Ecological Sciences At the University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, South Africa January 2018 1 ABSTRACT Nectarivorous birds, particularly sunbirds, are important pollinators of plants in the Cape Flora of South Africa, being responsible for pollinating approximately 5% of plant species. However, interactions between plants and nectarivorous birds in the eastern part of the Cape Floristic Region have not received much attention. This study focussed on two putatively bird-pollinated plant species found within the Nature’s Valley area, namely Kniphofia uvaria and Chasmanthe aethiopica. The breeding systems were determined for each species and, due to their patchy population distribution, potential Allee effects on plant fecundity were also tested for. Flowering phenology in the area was also examined to test for associations between flowering of bird-pollinated plant species and the temporal presence of nectarivorous birds. Selective exclusion experiments showed that sunbirds were the main pollinators of K. uvaria and C. aethiopica – fruit set and the number of viable seeds were much higher for untreated (open control) individuals where birds could visit flowers freely, compared to caged individuals which only allowed for insect visitation. Very few seeds developed when plants of the two species were bagged to exclude all pollinators, indicating that the species are not capable of autonomous self-fertilization. Fruit and seed set were determined for patches of K. uvaria and C. aethiopica in order to test for potential Allee effects.

    Toll Free: (800) 438-7199 Fax: (805) 964-1329 Local: (805) 683-1561 Web: www.smgrowers.com This January saw powerful storms drop over 10 inches of rain in Santa Barbara. We are thankful for this abundant rainfall that has spared us another drought year and lessoned the threat of another horrible wildfire season. While we celebrate this reprieve, we still need to remember that we live in a mediterranean climate with hot dry summers and limited winter rainfall. California’s population, now at 36 million people and growing, is putting increasing demands on our limited water resources and creating higher urban population densities that push development further into wildland areas. This makes it increasingly important that we choose plants appropriate to our climate to conserve water and also design to minimize fire danger. At San Marcos Growers we continue to focus on plants that thrive in our climate without requiring regular irrigation, and have worked with the City of Santa Barbara Fire Department and other landscape professionals to develop the Santa Barbara Firescape Garden with concepts for fire-safe gardening. We encourage our customers to use our web based resources for information on the low water requirements of our plants, and our Firescape pages with links to sites that explore this concept further. We also encourage homeowners and landscape professionals to work with their municipalities, water districts and fire departments to create beautiful yet water thrifty and fire safe landscapes. This 2008 catalog has 135 new plants added this year for a total of over 1,500 different plants.

  • Lincoln University Campus: a Guide to Some of the Shrubs Currently Growing There”
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Lincoln University Research Archive “Lincoln University campus: a guide to some of the shrubs currently growing there” Roy Edwards Department of Agricultural Science Lincoln University May 2009 The purpose of this book is to illustrate some of the range of shrubs currently grown on the Lincoln University campus. There are also a few trees that were not covered in the 1st book. This should be read in conjunction with its companion - “Lincoln University campus - a guide to some of the trees currently growing there” (April 2008). This also is a first draft and hopefully there will be further editions that will add species to address some of the obvious gaps. ISBN 978-0-86476-213-9 Cover image: Clianthus puniceus (kaka beak) “Lincoln University campus: a guide to some of the shrubs currently growing there” Roy Edwards May 2009 As with the first book “Lincoln University campus – a guide to some of the trees currently growing there” (April 2008) the purpose of this guide is primarily to increase the awareness for those people who are interested in plants of the Lincoln University campus. At this point in time the list is incomplete and it is my intention to hopefully add others at a later date. In this second book I have largely concentrated on shrubs and in some instances have included a few trees that were not covered in the first book. Documenting what is currently growing on the campus provides some sort of historical record and possibly the basis for some thoughts around future planting options.

  • Kirstenbosch NBG List of Plants That Provide Food for Honey Bees
    Indigenous South African Plants that Provide Food for Honey Bees Honey bees feed on nectar (carbohydrates) and pollen (protein) from a wide variety of flowering plants. While the honey bee forages for nectar and pollen, it transfers pollen from one flower to another, providing the service of pollination, which allows the plant to reproduce. However, bees don’t pollinate all flowers that they visit. This list is based on observations of bees visiting flowers in Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden, and on a variety of references, in particular the following: Plant of the Week articles on www.PlantZAfrica.com Johannsmeier, M.F. 2005. Beeplants of the South-Western Cape, Nectar and pollen sources of honeybees (revised and expanded). Plant Protection Research Institute Handbook No. 17. Agricultural Research Council, Plant Protection Research Institute, Pretoria, South Africa This list is primarily Western Cape, but does have application elsewhere. When planting, check with a local nursery for subspecies or varieties that occur locally to prevent inappropriate hybridisations with natural veld species in your vicinity.

  • The Newsletter of the IRISH GARDEN PLANT SOCIETY
    The Newsletter of the IRISH GARDEN PLANT SOCIETY ISSUE NO. 91 JANUARY 2004 EDITORIAL Dear Members, What a pleasure it was to find a bloom on Iris unguicularis ‘Kilbroney Marble’ on Christmas morning. A real treat! Many thanks to whoever brought it to the plant sale some years ago. Other spring bloomers are also showing, snowdrops, hellebores and daffodils, for example. All of these prompt us to look ahead to brighter days to come. While looking ahead, why not make this the year in which you give Irish plants a place in your garden and the gardens of others – by propagating them and bringing them to the Plant Sales. This time of year inevitably involves an amount of looking back also. As I recall the past year as editor of the newsletter I realise the great debt of gratitude I owe to the many people who make the effort to provide material for each issue and wonder gratefully at the patience of some whose material has been edited perhaps a little too heavily. I would like to say a special thanks to those who have written the reports on garden visits or on winter lectures. I have not met nor corresponded with many of you and so have not thanked you personally for this vital work for the newsletter. Please continue with your work; it is truly appreciated. Above all, a very special Thank You to those who badger, sorry encourage, others to write! Finally, I hope that during this year we will be able to read more about the work and workings of our National Committee.
