  • May 15, 2016 Passing Peony and Iris Plants on from Generation to Generation Annette Meyer Heisdorffer Daviess County Extension Agent for Horticulture
    May 15, 2016 Passing Peony and Iris Plants on from Generation to Generation Annette Meyer Heisdorffer Daviess County Extension Agent for Horticulture After lunch on Mother’s Day, my mom and I surveyed her garden, especially the peonies. We both agreed that I needed to propagate her peonies and plant them in my garden. These are special, because I remember them growing in my grandmother’s garden. Peonies are commonly passed down from generation to generation. My goal is to someday share them with my twins. Our discussion included the irises, which are another heritage plant. Both plants are blooming beautifully in May and are spectacular in the garden. Information about these two plants will be provided in this article. Peony (Paeonia officinalis, Paeonia lactiflora, and hybrids) is a herbaceous perennial, which means at the end of the growing season it will die back to the ground. However, the plant returns year after year. Peonies grow best in full sun and well-drained soil. There are tree peonies (Paeonia suffruticosa) which have a woody stem, but those are not as common and require different growing conditions. The tree peony will not be discussed here. According to Dr. Rick Durham, Extension Specialist for Consumer Horticulture, peonies can be found in landscapes across Kentucky. Peonies have a long life span and are commonly grown in the garden. When planting the root, make sure it is not too deep. The eyes or bud should be just below the surface of the soil. If it is planted too deeply, the plants won't bloom.

Please visit https://cutflowers.ces.ncsu.edu/ to watch the webinar and hear questions answered during the presentations. Always do your own on-farm testing to validate a treatment or recommendation. Production Where are the gaps in production? Sept through late October and a small gap in January. Mention months again for harvest regions? Some higher elevation Alaska farms cut into early September In the central US we start in April in Arkansas and go until July in the UP When would we expect production for central/midwest? Late April in southern areas through early July in northern areas. About production in upstate NY and new England? New York and New England would see blooms in early June Is the peony bloom season for the southern hermisphere? Late October through January (often early January only). Number one top peony for cut flower production. (General ideas?) And why? in terms of bud production, which varieties tend to have the highest stem production? How many stems/plant should be expected? Possibly Sarah Bernhardt, due to having large fragrant flowers, high productivity, average but reliable vase life, reliable producer This really depends on the variety, the age of the plant, your management practices and environment. Jules Ellie has been our most prolific and highest gross earner Do you know how many chilling hours are demanded by variety? We don’t have chilling needs by variety.

    COST EFFECTIVE PRODUCTION OF SPECIALTY CUT FLOWERS By TODD JASON CAVINS Bachelor of Science Southwestern Oklahoma State University Weatherford, Oklahoma 1997 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE December, 1999 COST EFFECTIVE PRODUCTION OF SPECIALTY CUT FLOWERS Thesis Approved: ' 1 Thesis Advisor .. ;.; ,, ( Dean of the Graduate College 11 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The purpose of this study was to improve production methods of various specialty cut flower species. Improving production methods allows growers to reduce cost, improve plant quality and earn higher profits. This study involved three research areas of specialty cut flowers. Partial funding was provided by a S.A.R.E. grant and Bear Creek Farm, Stillwater, OK. I would like to thank my principle advisor Dr. John Dole for his encouragement, support, honesty and perseverance. I would like to thank Dr. Janet Cole and Dr. Jim Ownby for serving on my thesis committee. Dr. Cole offered valuable insight and direction towards the research. Dr. Ownby contributed with his wealth of knowledge in plant physiology. A special thanks goes to Vicki Stamback and the gang at Bear Creek Farm. Vicki's experience as a specialty cut flower grower allowed me to gain personal knowledge of the cut flower industry that would not have taken place without her. Vicki's efforts and cooperation greatly improved this study. I want to thank Randall Smith and Leah Aufill for their assistance and plant care. Tim Hooper also contributed by offering his experiences from the floriculture industry and providing stress relieving lunch breaks.

  • Fragrant Peonies

These scents range from sweet and rosy to citrusy and spicy. Surprisingly, not all peonies are fragrant. The double form white and pink peonies tend to be the most aromatic. Some semi-double and anemone formed peonies boast an attractive perfume as well. However, most single and red peonies do not have a scent—though there are a few exceptions.

  • A MOSAIC DISEASE of PRIMULA OBCONICA and ITS CONTROL' a Mosaic Disease of Primula Obconica Hance, Grown Extensively As a Potted
    A MOSAIC DISEASE OF PRIMULA OBCONICA AND ITS CONTROL' By C. M. ToMPKiNS, assistant plant pathologist, and JOHN T. MIDDLETON, junior plant pathologist, California Agricultural Experiment Station ^ INTRODUCTION A mosaic disease of Primula obconica Hance, grown extensively as a potted ornamental plant in commercial greenhouses in San Fran- cisco, was first observed in August 1937. The incidence of the disease on very young to older seedling plants ranged from 5 to 25 percent and, because infected plants could not be marketed, serious financial losses were incurred. The results of studies on transmission, experimental host range, and properties of the virus, as well as control of the disease, are presented in this paper. REVIEW OF LITERATURE That many cultivated species of the genus Primula are generally susceptible to virus infection is indicated in the literature. In addi- tion to the mosaic diseases, the aster yellows, curly top, spotted wilt, and certain tobacco viruses may cause infection. Since this paper deals with a mosaic disease, only pertinent references are listed. In Japan, Fukushi (4.y in 1932 and Hino (6) in 1933 recorded the occurrence of a mosaic disease on Primula obconica. The latter also observed a similar disease on P. denticulata Sm. Smith (13) in England, in 1935, described a virus disease of the mosaic type on Primula obconica caused by cucumber virus 1. Later, Smith (14) stated that Cucumis virus 1 sometimes caused color break- ing of the fiowers and that other species of Primula were susceptible. Cucumis virus IB, a strain, induced '^a pronounced yellow and green mottling.'' In Germany, Ludwigs (7) and Pape {8) described very briefly a virus disease of Primula obconica without apparently establishing the identity of the virus.
