Fall crocus Crocus goulimyi Rating: 0.0 ( 0 votes) This description is for Fall crocus (Crocus goulimyi): Another striking deciduous perennial flowering plant, crocus goulimyi is one of the more favoured species of the genus due mainly to the warm, rounded shape of its beautiful blossoms. Commonly called the autumn or fall crocus, it flowers after the heat of summer, producing large goblet-shaped lavender or white blossoms that sit atop short stems just above its clump of slender, strap- shaped mid-green leaves. It has three large outer tepals, with three paler inner tepals, which open to reveal creamy throats and golden-yellow stamens. Ideally suited for gravel beds, rockeries and slopes, the autumn crocus thrives in poorly fertile, well-drained locations in full sun. No pruning is necessary. Find Fall crocus in our Shop!

Autumn Plants of the Peloponnese
Autumn Plants of the Peloponnese Naturetrek Tour Report 24 - 31 October 2018 Crocus goulimyi Chelmos Mystras Galanthus reginae-olgae Report& images by David Tattersfield Naturetrek Mingledown Barn Wolf's Lane Chawton Alton Hampshire GU34 3HJ UK T: +44 (0)1962 733051 E: [email protected] W: www.naturetrek.co.uk Tour Report Autumn Plants of the Peloponnese Tour participants: David Tattersfield (leader) and seven clients Day 1 Wednesday 24th October We made rapid progress along the motorway and stopped at Corinth to view the canal, which effectively makes the Peloponnese an island. Here we found our first flowers, the extremely common Autumn Squill Prospero autumnale, the striped, hooded spathes of Friar’s Cowl Arisarum vulgare, and a number of Crocus mazziaricus. A few butterflies included Long-tailed Blue, Lang’s Short-tailed Blue, Eastern Bath White, Mallow Skipper and a Pigmy Skipper. We continued along the newly-completed coast road, before turning inland and climbing steeply into the mountains. We arrived in Kalavrita around 6pm and after settling in to our hotel, we enjoyed a delicious meal of home-cooked food at a nearby taverna. Day 2 Thursday 25th October We awoke to a sunny day with cloud over the mountains. Above Kalavrita, we explored an area of Kermes Oak scrub and open pasture, where we found more white Crocus mazziaricus and Crocus melantherus. Crocus melantherus, as its name suggests can be distinguished from other autumn-flowering species by its black anthers and purple feathering on the outer tepals. Cyclamen hederifolium was common under the shade of the trees.

We have never had so many problems in fitting the range of plants we have “on our books” into the available space! We always try and keep our lists “democratic” and balanced although at times our prejudices show and one or two groups rise to the top. This year we are offering an unprecedented range of calochortus in a multiplicity of sizes, colours and flower shapes from the charming fairy lanterns of C. albidus through to the spectacular, later-flowering mariposas with upward-facing bowl-shaped flowers in a rich tapestry of shades from canary-yellow through to lilac, lavender and purple. Counterpoised to these flashy dandies we are offering an assortment of choice muscari whose quiet charm, softer colours and Tulipa vvedenskyi Tecophilaea cyanocrocus Violacea persistent flowering make them no less effective in the winter and spring garden. Standouts among this group are the deliciously scented duo, M. muscarimi and M. macrocarpum and the striking and little known tassel-hyacith, M. weissii. While it has its devotees, many gardeners are unaware of the qualities of the large and diverse tribe of “onions”, known as alliums.

The Genus Crocus (Liliiflorae, Iridaceae): Lifecycle, Morphology, Phenotypic Characteristics, and Taxonomical Relevant Parameters 27-65 Kerndorff & Al

Since 1982 when the last review of the genus was published by Brian Mathew many new taxa were found and work dealing with special parameters of Crocus, like the Calcium-oxalate crystals in the corm tunics, were published. Introducing molecular-systematic analyses to the genus brought a completely new understanding of Crocus that presents itself now far away from being small and easy-structured. This work was initiated by the idea that a detailed study accompanied by drawings and photographs is necessary to widen and sharpen the view for the important details of the genus. Therefore we look at the life-cycle of the plants as well as at important morphological and phenotypical characteristics of Crocus. Especially important to us is the explained determination of relevant taxonomical parameters which are necessary for a mistake-free identification of the rapidly increasing numbers of discovered species and for the creation of determination keys. Zusammenfassung: Die Gattung Crocus wird seit mehr als 30 Jahren von den Autoren sowohl in der Natur als auch in Kultur studiert.

LATVIA /fax +371 – 41-33-223 +371 - 941-84-40, 41-00-326 All prices for single bulb E-mail: [email protected] in EURO Dear friends! New Year and new gardening season comes and my new catalogue goes to you. It is a little shorter than usually - not for shortage of items includable (with pain in heart I striped out many names) but this summer I want to rebuild my bulb shed and it will limit my possibilities to harvest bulbs and to work with them. Last summer was very busy year. I rebuilt one of my greenhouses - it was very nervous process due shortage of workers (three teams were changed), I was forced to dig out all bulbs, to change soil - but now working in it is much more comfortable. I and my wife Guna organized for the first time “Open door days” and we had 18 visitors from Britain, arranged programm including lectures, visits of gardens, museum, nature, Opera etc. All visitors were very satisfied with visit. Sorry, this season we can’t to arrange OPEN DOOR DAYS due my lecture tour in North America and expedition plans. But I’m planning repeat such days in future, too. Last season Mrs. Kristl Walek from Canada (Gardens North – Seeds from the world) in her catalogue revealed the fact that I had been bearing in my mind an idea about a book on bulbs and my experience with them.

We made good progress along the motorway and stopped at Corinth to view the canal. On the sandy banks, along its edge, we found Sea Squill Drimia maritima, Autumn Squill Prospero autumnale and our first Crocus Crocus mazziaricus. Beyond the Gulf of Corinth, we followed the new road, before turning inland and climbing steeply into the mountains. We arrived in Kalavrita at 5.45pm and after discussing the plans for the week, went for a delicious meal of home-cooked food at a nearby taverna. Day 2 Thursday 26th October After overnight rain, the morning remained cool with mist and occasional drizzle. Above Kalavrita we explored an area of Kermes Oak scrub and open pasture, where we found white Crocus mazziaricus and Crocus melantherus, both now raised to the level of species. Crocus melantherus, as its name suggests, can be distinguished from other autumn-flowering species by its black anthers and purple feathering on the outer tepals. We drove upwards, through forest of Graecian Fir Abies cephalonica to the car park below the ski resort.

Report on Species of Plants Requiring Protection in Greece and Measures for Securing Their Protection
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by I-Revues REPORT ON SPECIES OF PLANTS REQUIRING PROTECTION IN GREECE AND MEASURES FOR SECURING THEIR PROTECTION BY Const. GOULIMIS 21, rue Hippocrate Athens (Greece) This report has been divided in three parts. The first part deals with a list of species and other taxa of the Greek flora requiring protection. The second part deals with the destruction of rare plants and its causes and the third part deals with suggested remedies. PART 1. A list of species and other taxa of the Greek flora requiring protection. A list of the species and other taxa of the Greek flora which, in my opinion, require protection is annexed to this report. ln order to explain the comparatively great number of plants which appear in this list, 1 would mention that the flora of this country is one of the richest of Europe. containing about 6,000 taxa, a number consid� erably larger than that of France, Belgium and Switzerland put together, in spite of the fact that the total expanse of these countries is more than six times that of Greece. ln addition, as mentioned below, this country has a very large number of endemics, in fact, in proportion to her size, Greece has more endemics than any other European country. For the compilation of this list, 1 have reviewed the flora of the following districts of Greece : l. Continental Greece ( Sterea He lias). 2. Peloponnese. 3. Thessaly. 4. Epirus. 5. The island of Euboea (including the Sporades islands).

Peloponnese in Autumn
Peloponnese in Autumn A Greentours Trip Report 20th October to 27th October 2019 Led by Kurt Vickery and Paul Green Daily Reports & Systematic Lists by Paul Day 1 Sunday 20th October Arrival to Peloponnese Kurt was already at Athens airport as he had dropped off the group from the Delphi trip. Jane and Michael who were on that trip continued onto this trip. The majority of the group flew in from Heathrow. As my flight arrived a little later from Dublin, and Kurt couldn’t take everybody in his vehicle, Brenda, Gail and Jacqueline waited with me, for Walter to arrive in from Chania as he had been on the Crete trip. We all meet up at the hotel at Kefalari, where we went to a nearby taverna for our evening meal, enjoying one of the many Greek Salads we were to eat, along with other delights. Day 2 Monday 21st October Mycenae & journey to Gythio We woke to clear blue skies. Hanging out of a wall in the village was Ballota nigra (Black Horehound), and by a small stream grew Epilobium hirsutum (Great Willowherb), both in flower. A Great Spotted Woodpecker was heard calling. We admired a very large Platanus orientalis (Oriental Plane Tree), pondering over how old it might be, in the centre of Kefalari. With our suitcases loaded back into the vehicles, we said our farewells and headed off. Our first stop was on the roadside in the hope of finding our first Crocus, which after a little searching I managed to find, these were Crocus cancellatus mazziaricus, small white stars dotted about in the bare earth between the many well eaten spiny shrubs.
