J. Int. Environmental Application & Science, Vol. 11(2): 216-222 (2016) Using Beautiful Flowering Bulbous (Geophytes) Plants in the Cemetery Gardens in the City of Tokat Kübra Yazici∗, Hasan Köse2, Bahriye Gülgün3 1Gaziosmanpaşa University Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Horticulture, 60100, Taşlıçiftlik, Tokat, Turkey; 2 Celal Bayar University Alaşehir Vocational School Alaşehir; Manisa; 3Ege University Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Horticulture, 35100 Bornova, Izmir, TURKEY, Received March 25, 2016; Accepted June 12, 2016 Abstract: The importance of public green areas in urban environment, which is a sign of living standards and civilization, increase steadily. Because of the green areas they exhibit and their spiritual atmosphere, graveyards have importance. With increasing urbanization come the important duties of municipalities to arrange and maintain cemeteries. In recent years, organizations independent from municipalities have become interested in cemetery paysage. This situation has made cemetery paysage an important sector. The bulbous plants have a distinctive role in terms of cemetery paysage because of their nice odours, decorative flowers and the ease of maintenance. The field under study is the city of Tokat which is an old city in Turkey. This study has been carried out in various cemeteries in Tokat, namely, the Cemetery of Şeyhi-Şirvani, the Cemetery of Erenler, the Cemetery of Geyras, the Cemetery of Ali, and the Armenian Cemetery. Field observation have been carried out in terms of the leafing and flowering times of bulbous plants. At the end of the study, in designated regions in the before-mentioned cemeteries bulbous plants that naturally grow in these regions have been evaluated. In the urban cemeteries, these flowers are used the most: tulip, irises, hyacinth, daffodil and day lily (in decreasing order of use). -

Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page. Basal Angiosperms (ANITA grade) Amborellales Amborellaceae, sole family, the earliest branch of flowering plants, a shrub native to New Caledonia – Amborella Nymphaeales Hydatellaceae – aquatics from Australasia, previously classified as a grass Cabombaceae (water shield – Brasenia, fanwort – Cabomba) Nymphaeaceae (water lilies – Nymphaea; pond lilies – Nuphar) Austrobaileyales Schisandraceae (wild sarsaparilla, star vine – Schisandra; Japanese -

Five Types of Bulbs the Word “Bulb” Here Is Used As a Generic Term for Plants That Grow from Five Distinct Types of Underground Structures As Follows
Five Types of Bulbs The word “bulb” here is used as a generic term for plants that grow from five distinct types of underground structures as follows: True Bulbs (Hyacinth, Tulip, Daffodil) Tiny bulblets or bulbils attach themselves to the bulb. Dig bulbs and separate gently remove tiny bulbs from basal plate. Plant bulblets in out-of-the-way spot till mature enough for bloom. Corms (Gladiolus, Crocus, Freesia) to divide separate cormels from main corm. Plant in an out-of-the-way place till corms are large enough to flower. Tubers (Anemone (most), Tuberous Begonia, Florist Cyclamen) – To divide, dig and separate large tuber into two or more sections, making sure each section has at least one or two growth points. Rhizomes (Bearded Iris, Agapanthus, Anemone [some], Canna rhizomes produce new plants from growth points along their sides. To divide, break at narrowing points which seem to divide sections. Each “break” needs at least one growing point. Tuberous Roots – (Day Lily, Ranunculus, Dahlia) to divide, dig and cut apart so that each separated root has a growth bud. NOTE: Tulips and Hyacinth need winter chill for best bloom. Purchase bulbs around Labor Day and *chill in refrigerator in vented bag for at least six weeks prior to planting. *IMPORTANT: While bulbs are being stored in refrigerator it is important that no fruits are stored in same refrigerator. Bulbs in Pots: Planting depth: Mix at home potting medium: Daffodil 5 inches 1 part peat moss Hyacinth 4 inches 1 part compost Tulip 2½ times deep as bulb is wide 1 part builder’s sand Muscari 2-3 inches Fertilizer (according to package instructions) Crocus 2 inches Growing Instructions for bulbs pot: Place in full sunlight (at least six hours each day). -

THE INFLUENCE of SELECTED GROWTH REGULATORS on DEVELOPMENT, DECORATIVE VALUE and YIELD of CORMS of EASY POT FREESIA (Freesia Eckl
Acta Sci. Pol., Hortorum Cultus 12(1) 2013, 55-64 THE INFLUENCE OF SELECTED GROWTH REGULATORS ON DEVELOPMENT, DECORATIVE VALUE AND YIELD OF CORMS OF EASY POT FREESIA (Freesia Eckl. ex Klatt). PART I. GIBBERELLIN A3 Piotr ĩurawik, Monika Placek West Pomeranian University of Technology in Szczecin Abstract. Freesias of Easy Pot group are very interesting complement to an assortment of flowering potted plants. However , there is a lack of information about their requirements and cultivation methods. Experiments were carried out in the years 2006–2007 in the un- heated plastic tunnel. Cormlets of three cultivars: ‘Gompey’, ‘Popey’ and ‘Suzy’ were the plant material. Corms were soaked in solution of gibberellic acid in concentration of 10, 20, 40, 80 or 160 mg dm-3 for 24 hours just before planting, in a dark room with air tem- perature 28–30oC. Corms soaked in water were served as the control. During the vegeta- tion season measurements of vegetative and generative traits of plants were conducted. After the end of vegetation period, coefficients of corm weight and number increase were calculated. It was found that cormlets of Easy Pot Freesia can be recommended for culti- vation in pots. Cultivar had a significant effect on vegetative and generative parameters of plants. Among evaluated cultivars ‘Gompey’ was characterized by the greatest decorative value. Plants of this cultivar had the longest inflorescence shoots with the greatest number of lateral shoots and the greatest number of flowers. Irrespective of cultivar, gibberellic acid increased plant height, total number of leaves, length of inflorescence shoots and de- creased flower diameter. -

SUMMARY Developmental constraints have been proposed different characteristics of microsporogenesis, only cell to interfere with natural selection in limiting the available wall formation appeared as constrained. We show that set of potential adaptations. Whereas this concept has constraints may also result from biases in the correlated long been debated on theoretical grounds, it has been occurrence of developmental steps (e.g., lack of successive investigated empirically only in a few studies. In this article, cytokinesis when wall formation is centripetal). We document we evaluate the importance of developmental constraints such biases and their potential outcomes, notably the during microsporogenesis (male meiosis in plants), with an establishment of intermediate stages, which allow emphasis on phylogenetic patterns in Asparagales.

Brodiaea Orcuttii) – Category SO
Volume 2D: Goals and Objectives for Species Focus Management Species 1.0 Plants 1.9 Orcutt’s Brodiaea (Brodiaea orcuttii) – Category SO Management Units with Known Occurrences Orcutt’s brodiaea is known from San Bernardino, Orange, and Riverside Counties south to San Diego County and Baja California, Mexico (Reiser 2001). The species’ preferred habitat consists of vernally moist grasslands, mima mound topography, and the periphery of vernal pools. It is occasionally found growing on streamside embankments. Orcutt’s brodiaea grows in soils of old terraces and alluvial fans, which are characterized as gravelly with or without a hardpan (Niehaus 1971). On Otay Mesa, soils include Stockpen gravelly loam, and on Mira Mesa, spoils include Redding gravelly loam (Reiser 2001). At vernal pool locations, Orcutt’s brodiaea usually grows in swales leading into more developed pools and on the lower flanks of small mima mounds. Within the MSPA, there are 7 large (≥1,000 plants since 2010) occurrences, 11 small occurrences (<1,000 plants since 2010), and 5 occurrences of unknown size (see Table of Occurrences or online map: http://arcg.is/2kFIdjS). The large occurrences are on MU2 (General Dynamics East); MU4 (Simon Preserve, Elliot Preserve); and MU6 (Carroll Canyon Vernal Pool Preserve, Daley Ranch, Del Mar Mesa, Lopez Ridge). The small occurrences are on MU2 (Nobel Drive); MU3 (Otay Mountain, Otay Ranch Preserve, Copper Canyon); MU4 (Boulder Oaks Preserve, Oak Creek); MU6 (Escondido Creek Preserve, Rancho La Costa, Santa Fe Valley); and MU8 (Mount Olympus Preserve). The occurrences of unknown size are found on MU3 (Cedar Canyon, North San Ysidro Parcel); MU4 (North and West of El Capitan Reservoir on the Cleveland National Forest); and MU7 (Water’s End). -
