  • New Plantings in the Arboretum the YEAR in REVIEW
    Four new have been Four new Yoshino cherry trees have Yoshinobeen planted along planted Azalea Way. cherry trees along Azalea New Plantings in the Arboretum THE YEAR IN REVIEW T EX T B Y R AY L A R SON P HO T OS B Y N IA ll D UNNE n the five years that I have been curator, 2018 was the most active in terms of new plantings in the Arboretum. A majority of these centered around the new Arboretum Loop Trail and adjacent areas, many of which were enhanced, rehabilitated and Iaugmented. We also made improvements to a few other collection and garden areas with individual and smaller plantings. Following is a summary of some of the more noticeable new plantings you might encounter during your next visit. Winter 2019 v 3 Arboretum Entrance Perhaps the most obvious major planting occurred in March, just north of the Graham Visitors Center, with the creation of a new, large bed at the southeast corner of the intersection of Arboretum Drive and Foster Island Road. This intersection changed a lot as part of the Loop Trail construction—with the addition of new curbs and crosswalks—and we wanted to create a fitting entrance to the Arboretum at its north end. The new planting was also intended to alleviate some of the soil compaction and social trails that had developed on the east side of Arboretum Drive during trail construction. What’s more, we wanted to encourage pedes- trians to use the new gravel trail on the west side of the Drive to connect from the lower parking lots to the Visitors Center—rather than walk in the road.

Charlton Biological Sciences, Williamson Building, University ofManchester, Manchester MIS 9PL, UK SUMMARY Several appendages are attached at each node of adult shoots of Azara serrata. There is always a large ‘leaf, which is equivalent to the leaf blade of the early seedling leaf, and a small ‘leaf which is of stipular derivation. Other additional appendages of stipular derivation These can occur. are generally glandular, but in the early adult of them phase (second-season seedlings) some may be leaf-like. the and small ‘leaves’ have leaf-like vascular Only large a supply, from two traces derived from an original trilacunar nodal condition. is It suggested that A. serrata, and other species, may escape from conventional morphology by a cascade of stipular development and progressive elaboration, each stipular structure becoming accompanied by additionalstipular structures with increasing size of the apical region as the plant develops from seedling to adult, and increasing size being accompanied by an increasing tendency to develop in a leaf-like manner. As a result there is a continuum of developmental possibilities for stipular structures, from gland to ‘leaf. Key-words: Azara serrata, Azara spp., leaf, stipule, development, continuum. INTRODUCTION Adult shoots of Azara are dorsiventral, and normally give the appearance of having two leaves each a one the lower side and small at node, large at a one at the upper.

  • Development of Dorsiventrality in Seedlings of Azara Serrata R
    Acta Bot. Neerl. 43(4), December 1994, p. 359-372 Development of dorsiventrality in seedlings of Azara serrata R. & P. (Flacourtiaceae) W.A. Charlton Biological Sciences, Williamson Building, University of Manchester, Manchester MIS 9PL, UK SUMMARY Azara spp. generally have dorsiventral shoots with the appearance of a large and a small ‘leaf at each node. On morphological grounds the small ‘leaf is usually considered to be derived from an upper stipule, while the lower stipule is reduced. This interpretation is reinforced by the changes during seedling development. Seedlings usually pass through a phase where the shoot is radially symmetrical and trilacunar nodes with small, glandular, non-vascular stipular structures are formed. Then nodes become more asymmetrical with the diminutionof stipular development and lateral leaf trace development on one side, and accentuation on the other, and this until the adult is reached. process proceeds state Dorsiventrality alternation of successive nodes and depends on asymmetry at alternation may appear later than asymmetry. The changes in the seedling indicate that a recent interpretation of the adult structure of Azara based on homoeosis is not useful. The seedlings provide an interesting case in continuum morphology since they show a continuumof stipular structures from ‘gland’ through to ‘leaf but the continuum does not quite extend to the original leaf blade, which remains distinctive. Key-words: Azara serrata, seedling, dorsiventrality, leaf, stipule, development, continuum, homoeosis. INTRODUCTION The genus Azara has dorsiventral shoots which generally present the appearance of having a large and a small leaf at each node, with the larger leaf attached towards the lower side of shoot and the smaller towards the The small ‘leaf has been the upper.

  • Plants for Fragrance
    Plants for Fragrance Color, texture and form make for an interesting garden or container, no doubt, but it is incomplete without plants that add the sensual element of smell. Plants with fragrant foliage often need to be brushed against to release their scent; scented flowers are usually trying to attract pollinators by their perfume, hence release it more widely. Warmth and humidity will often increase flowers’ scent. Below are some of our favorite plants that do double duty by providing heavenly fragrance. Plants that provide fragrance at night or in winter are noted. Annuals Common Name Botanical Name Comments Flowers? Foliage? Night ? ?

  • Plants Resistant Or Susceptible to Armillaria Mellea, the Oak Root Fungus
    Plants Resistant or Susceptible to Armillaria mellea, The Oak Root Fungus Robert D. Raabe Department of Environmental Science and Management University of California , Berkeley Armillaria mellea is a common disease producing fungus found in much of California . It commonly occurs naturally in roots of oaks but does not damage them unless they are weakened by other factors. When oaks are cut down, the fungus moves through the dead wood more rapidly than through living wood and can exist in old roots for many years. It also does this in roots of other infected trees. Infection takes place by roots of susceptible plants coming in contact with roots in which the fungus is active. Some plants are naturally susceptible to being invaded by the fungus. Many plants are resistant to the fungus and though the fungus may infect them, little damage occurs. Such plants, however, if they are weakened in any way may become susceptible and the fungus may kill them. The plants listed here are divided into three groups. Those listed as resistant are rarely damaged by the fungus. Those listed as moderately resistant frequently become infected but rarely are killed by the fungus. Those listed as susceptible are severely infected and usually are killed by the fungus. The fungus is variable in its ability to infect plants and to damage them. Thus in some areas where the fungus occurs, more plant species may be killed than in areas where other strains of the fungus occur. The list is composed of two parts. In Part A, the plants were tested in two ways.

LEMKE Department ofBiology, Southwest Texas State University San Marcos , Texas 78666 ABSTRACT Flacourtiaceae are a large, mostly tropical, family containing more than 800 species. As circum­ scribed by Warburg and Gilg the family is rather heterogeneous and indeterminate. The most recent generic treatment , that of Hutchinson, represents a considerable improvement in our understanding of the family, yet Hutchinson's Flacourtiaceae still contain a number of disparate elements. This preliminary generic treatment, based upon studies ofgross morphology, wood anatomy, palynology, and phytochem istry, attempts to provide a revised framework for future stud ies ofthis diverse family. Ten tribes (Berberidopsideae, Erythrospermeae, Oncobeae, Pangieae, Homalieae, Scolopieae, Prock­ ieae, Flacourtieae, Casearieae, Bembicieae) comprising 79 genera are recognized. The tribes Abatieae, Alzateeae, Lacistemeae, Paropsieae, and Trichostephaneae are excluded from the family, as are the genera Aphloia, Asteropeia, Leth edon (=Microsemma). and Plagiopteron. Hutchinson's tribe Banareae is not recognized as a distinct taxon . Key words: Flacourtiaceae, systematics, classification. wood anatomy, pollen morphology, cyclopen­ tenyl fatty acids , cyanogenic glycosides, INTRODUCTION Flacourtiaceae are a pantropical family , comprising 79 genera and approxi­ mately 880 species, which remains relatively poorly known taxonomically.
