Please check your email address in the membership list and if it is wrong, send us the right one! 2 SEPTEMBER MEMBERS’ PLANT SALE MOVES TO SUNDAY AFTERNOON ...submitted by Janet Novak, Plant Sale Coordinator Our June members’ plant sale introduced a lot of new features: a new location, alphabetized plants, and new systems for plant pricing and checkout. In a survey on the sale, these practices proved to be popular, so we’re retaining them for the September sale. We have one further innovation for September: the sale will be held on Sunday afternoon. The second Saturday in September tends to be a busy time for plant-related events, so attendance at our September sale has been light. I’m hoping that Sunday afternoon will work for more of you. The sale is Sunday, September 12: 12:30-1:30 PM: Plant donations accepted 12:30-2 PM: Plant preview 2 PM: Sale opens The sale is open to DVC-NARGS members and their guests, so feel free to invite some friends. As always, the sale relies on your donations of plants, troughs, and related items. Especially nice items will go into a silent auction. Location: Morris Arboretum’s Bloomfield Farm (303 E. Northwestern Avenue, Lafayette Hill, PA). This is directly opposite the entrance to the public part of the Arboretum. A restroom will be available. Note that the sale will be in the open, so if the forecast calls for rain, wear a raincoat! Safety Rules: Anyone who is not fully vaccinated is required to wear a mask. Plant Pricing: We are requesting that members price their donated items themselves. We’ll provide pre-printed price stickers and a pricing guide. If you want help with pricing, a volunteer will be available. If you are donating 20 or more items, you can consider pricing them ahead of time at home. I can mail you the stickers and a pricing guide (contact me at [email protected]). Plant Preview: You can look over the plants on sale as we’re setting up. Sales Period: As usual, the sale will open with a short donor’s shopping period. Donor are entitled to buy one early-choice plant for every 10 plants donated, up to 5 early choices. Then the sale will open to everyone. Plants sell fast, so don’t be late! Plants will be arranged by first letter of the scientific name. Payment: We accept checks or cash. Exact change is appreciated. Lend us a table? Renting tables for the sale is a substantial expense for the chapter. If you can lend us some tables, we’ll be very grateful. Every table lent saves the chapter $10-$15! We’re looking for folding tables that can be used outdoors. You would need to bring the tables to Bloomfield/Morris Arb. by noon. If you’re willing to lend us one or more tables, contact me ([email protected] or 215-248-2642). IT IS NOT TOO LATE! ORDER ROCK GARDEN BULBS ...submitted by Janet Novak, Chair of Plant Sales There’s still time to order bulbs from DVC-NARGS.

  • APPROVED PLANT LIST Midtown Alliance Tree Well Adoption Program
    APPROVED PLANT LIST Midtown Alliance Tree Well Adoption Program Midtown Alliance launched the Tree Well Adoption program with the primary goal of enriching the experience of Midtown’s workers and residents while encouraging sustainability through the use of low-water, urban tolerant plant species. This list of plants was created to aid individuals and organizations in selecting plant material to plant in their adopted tree wells. This plant list is intended to encourage individual character in the tree wells, rather than restrict creativity in the selection of plants. The plants on the approved list were selected based on the following criteria: • Perennial. All plants listed are perennial, meaning they last for two or more growing seasons. Once established, these plants will require less water to maintain than annuals. • Heat tolerant. Plants in tree wells are exposed to high temperatures caused by vehicles and heat reflected from surrounding buildings, asphalt, and other urban surfaces. They must also be tolerant to high daytime temperatures, typical of Atlanta’s summer months, and cold hardy in the winter months. Atlanta is located in USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 7b/8a. • Water wise. Urban tree wells are surrounded by impervious surfaces and thus, are highly susceptible to periods of drought. Suitable plants must be able to survive periods of low rainfall. • Pollution tolerant. Vehicle exhaust may leave deposits and pollutants on plant foliage, which can kill sensitive plants. • Encourage wildlife. Flowering plants attract insects such as butterflies while others provide food sources for birds and other wildlife. • Grown locally. Many of the plants listed are native to the Atlanta area, and all can be found at local nurseries.

Address for correspondence: Nicolás García, [email protected] DOI https://doi.org/10.1002/tax.12062 Abstract A robust generic classification for Amaryllidaceae has remained elusive mainly due to the lack of unequivocal diagnostic characters, a consequence of highly canalized variation and a deeply reticulated evolutionary history. A consensus classification is pro- posed here, based on recent molecular phylogenetic studies, morphological and cytogenetic variation, and accounting for secondary criteria of classification, such as nomenclatural stability. Using the latest sutribal classification of Hippeastreae (Hippeastrinae and Traubiinae) as a foundation, we propose the recognition of six genera, namely Eremolirion gen. nov., Hippeastrum, Phycella s.l., Rhodolirium s.str., Traubia, and Zephyranthes s.l. A subgeneric classification is suggested for Hippeastrum and Zephyranthes to denote putative subclades.

  • Srgc Bulb Log Diary
    SRGC ----- Bulb Log Diary ----- Pictures and text © Ian Young th BULB LOG 11......................... 13 March 2013 As we expected, after the few mild sunny days, winter has returned. Last week I showed this same view with open flowers enjoying the sunshine and mild conditions now they are blanketed in snow. The snow does create a striking contrast with the deep warm yellow flowers of Crocus herbertii. Galanthus, Crocus and Corydalis are all able to withstand our erratic spring swinging as it does from sunny warm days to freezing snowy days. Despite their delicate look the reticulate Iris flowers are also tough and able to cope with being covered in snow. Galanthus ‘Elizabeth Harrison’ Galanthus ‘Elizabeth Harrison’ holds the record for fetching the highest price ever fetched by a single snowdrop bulb, a record that surely will never be beaten. This crazy price more reflects the desire for people to be among the first to own a new different form than it does the actual value of the plant. However it is a beautiful form with its striking yellow ovary contrasting so well with the green and because of that it stands out as you walk around the garden without the need to bend down and squeeze the flower open to view the interior markings. Last year I got some seeds from our plant which I sowed 5cms deep - now I am delighted to see them starting to germinate with three seed leaves visible so far. Galanthus platyphyllus Galanthus platyphyllus is not so commonly seen in gardens perhaps as it has a reputation of the flowers hiding themselves down in the leaves.

Phylogenetic hypotheses based on chloroplast data have 26 provided a backbone for the genus but a detailed phylogenetic framework is still 27 lacking. To fill this gap, we present a phylogenetic study of the genus using five 28 markers from three genomes: ndhF and matK (chloroplast DNA), cob and atpA 29 (mitochondrial DNA), and ITS (nuclear ribosomal DNA).

  • Narcissi of Iberia a Tour for the Alpine Garden Society a Greentours Tour Report
    Narcissi of Iberia A Tour for the Alpine Garden Society A Greentours Tour Report 24th February – 5th March 2012 Led by Paul Green NB - The order of this tour is the reverse of the one that we’ll do in 2020! Friday 24th February Malaga to Benaojan We had a snack in a small cafe at the airport before heading for our hotel. The palm trees looked stunning in the bright clear blue sunny skies as we headed out of Malaga, through Torremolinos, past Marbella and up the beautiful scenic route of the very twisty A397 to Ronda. Several kestrels and goldfinches were seen from the car. There were many almond trees to be seen, the sun caught the pink petal just right, making them a lovely spectacle. As we left the main road, we saw our first blue Iris planifolia. We dropped down the valley to our hotel the Molino del Santo at Benaojan. Saturday 25th February Benaojan, Montejaque, and Zahara Our first stop was by the small chapel on the rocky outcrop by the road above our hotel. Here we had a good look at Narcissus assoanus. We could look down into the valley where the gentle bells of the goats and sheep carried up to us. There were a couple of clouded yellows flitting about in the warm afternoon sun. Further up the hill we drove through Montejaque with its almond trees in full, pink bloom, to a flat area between the rocky limestone hills ‘Penon de Mures’ and ‘Cerro Tavizna’. A rocky knoll beside the road had our first Narcissus papyraceus, with its heady hawthorn-like scent and pure ‘paper-white’ blooms.

    1938 203 Karyotype Alteration and Phylogeny. IV. Karyotypes in Amaryl lidaceae with special reference to the SAT-chromosome* By Dyuhei Sato Tokyo Imperial University (With 73 figures) ReceivedJune 20, 1938 Introduction Though the estimation of chromosome numbers in plants has since the last decade of the last century attracted the intense interest of plant cytologist, not so many plant species have yet been dealt with from the view points of phylogeny and karyotype alteration. In Lycoris many chromosome numbers were found, namely L. sanguiflora 2n=22=22i, L. aurea 2n=12=10V+2i, 2n=13= 9V+4i, 2n=14=8V+6i, L. albiflora 2n=17=5V+12i, L. squamigera 2n=27=6V+21i, L. radiata 2n=33=33i. Take naka (1930) and Inariyama (1931, 1932, 1933, 1937) interpreted those karyotypes by assuming that the V-shaped chromosome may be the result of a fusion of the two rod-shaped chromosomes (the i-chromosomes). This interpretation was also applied by the present writer in Leucoju7n (Sato 1937b). Besides the fusion of chromo somes the phenomena of fragmentation, elimination, translocation and other karyotype alteration were found in Scilla (Sato 1935a, 1936a, b). In earlier reports we often find that the number of chromosomes was not exactly determined, this being partly due to the inadequate technique employed at that time and partly due to a prejudice as regards kindred taxonomic groups of plants. It will be sufficient to quote the somatic chromosome numbers of Agave and Hosta. Agave am,ericana which was reported by Muller (1912) to have 20 chromo somes instead of 120=20L+100S (cf.
