    www.ficuswww.suncoastnps.org.usf.edu/orgs/suncoast The Suncoast Grapevine Newsletter of the Suncoast Native Plant Society, Inc. Volume 33 Number 8 August 2016 AUGUST CHAPTER MEETING At the Hillsborough County Extension Office Wild Orchids of Florida Presented by Wally Wilder Wednesday, August 17, 7 PM Wally Wilder, a self-educated horticulturalist, is an expert on Florida orchids and is sought after by people such as Roger Hammer when they want to know where to find orchids. Wilder will discuss his wild orchid adventures and share more than 60 photographs of orchids, ranging from common varieties, such as the SNPS logo orchid, Encyclia tampensis, to those that are more rare, including one he discovered in the Ocala National Forest last year. Florida is home to 110 native orchid species, and Wilder seen 80 or 90 of them. He is highly regarded as a leading ex- pert on orchids by horticulturalists throughout the world. Wally became interested in orchids when he went rambling in the woods where he was raised in Apopka, Florida. Dis- covering unusual plants – especially orchids – “gave me something to look at instead of just walking,” he said. He re- calls discovering his first orchid in the mid-1970s, and he hasn't stopped. In Florida, Wilder has worked with the Fakahatchee Strand Preserve in its efforts to restore native orchid species. He is also providing equipment to the Soroa Botanical Gardens in Cuba to enable them to grow orchids from seed. Light refreshments are served and a native plant auction follows the presentation. - submitted by Donna Bollenbach & Janet Bowers The Florida Native Plant Society was organized in 1980 to promote the preservation, conserva- tion, and restoration of the native plants and native plant communities of Florida.

  • Xue Susu (1573-Ca.1650) Was a Courtesan Who Lived in the Final Years of the Ming Dynasty
    ESTEEMED LINK: AN ARGUMENT FOR XUE SUSU AS LITERATI A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI’I IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN ART HISTORY MAY 2011 By Cordes McMahan Hoffman Thesis Committee: Kate Lingley, Chairperson John Szostak Paul Lavy Xue Susu (1573-ca.1650) was a courtesan who lived in the final years of the Ming dynasty (1368-1644). She was a multi-faceted artist, known for her painting, poetry and heroic personal- ity. An active participant in literati culture for most of her life, Xue’s body of work contains sev- eral outstanding paintings which demonstrate her grasp of the artistic concerns of literati painting practice at that time. Modern scholarship of Chinese women artists is a growing field, and it is now unthinkable to exclude women in the broad category of Chinese painting. However, examinations of individual artists, have been limited. For example, Xue Susu has been the subject of articles by Tseng Yu- ho (Betty Ecke); she was featured in an encyclopedic exhibition of Chinese women painters titled Views from Jade Terrace: Chinese Women Artists 1300-1912, and she is listed in several survey texts of Chinese art history.1 These considerations of Xue Susu demonstrate that modern scholarship acknowledges her as a talented painter. However, Xue is usually only considered in aggregate with other women painters with the grouping, gender being the primary identifier for artistic identity. The problem at hand then becomes that the majority of Xue Susu’s surviving work is dissimilar in stylistic choice to the general group of female painters of her era.

The case is presented principally through the testimony of two witnesses: Linda McLaughlin, an economist with the National Economic Research Associates ("NERA"), who has prepared an estimate of the minimum value of all types of retransmitted broadcast signals for satellite operators; and John Wilson, a programming executive with PBS, who discusses the reasons that public television signals have substantial and unique value for the satellite operators who retransmit them. PBS requests that the royalty rates for satellite carrier retransmission of network and superstation signals be set at the level of 35 cents per subscriber per month for 1997, 36 cents per subscriber per month for 1998, and 38 cents per subscriber per month in 1999.

  • Of Irvington, New York, 1849,1860 by Rohit T
    The Hudson River Railroad and the Development of Irvington, New York, 1849,1860 By Rohit T. Aggarwala Introduction Close by Sunnyside is one of those marvelous villages with which America abounds: it has sprung up like a mushroom, and bears the name Irvington, in compliment to the late master of Sunnyside. A dozen years ago, not a solitary house was there .... Piermont, directly oppos ite, was then the sole terminus of the great New York and Erie Railway, and here seemed to be an eligible place for a village, as the Hudson River Railway was then almost completed. Mr. Dearman had one surveyed upon his lands; streets were marked out, village lots were measured and defined; sales at enormous prices, which enriched the owner, were made, and now upon that farm, in pleas­ ant cottages, surrounded by neat gard ens, several hundred inhabi­ tants are dwelling .... Morning and evening, when the trains depart for and arrive from New York, many handsome vehicles can be seen there. This all seems like the work of magic. O ver this beautiful slope, where so few years ago the voyager upon the Hudson saw only woodlands and cultivated fields, is now a populous town. The own­ ers are chiefl y business in [sic] of N ew York, whose counting rooms and parlours are within less than an hour of each other. - Benson J. Lossing, The Hudson, 18661 Tht Hudson River Rail road and the Development of Irvington, New York, 1849- 1860 51 Irvington, New York, was created by the coming of the Hudson River Railroad.

  • The Number Is Counterintuitive, but Arizona Ranks Third in the Nation in Terms of Plant Diversity, with Nearly 5,000 Different Species
    Hooded lady’s tresses (Spiranthes romanzoffiana) are one of several orchid species known to grow in the San Francisco Peaks area. WHERE THE WILD ORCHID GROWS The number is counterintuitive, but Arizona ranks third in the nation in terms of plant diversity, with nearly 5,000 different species. Of that number, more than 800 grow in the San Francisco Peaks, including Franciscan bluebells, mountain monardellas, monkeyflowers, graceful buttercups and an orchid commonly known as hooded lady’s tresses. There’s a lot to see in the mountains, so we sent our writer and photographer out to have a look. BY ANNETTE MCGIVNEY PHOTOGRAPHS BY EIRINI PAJAK 38 AUGUST 2017 LENN RINK IS A GUERRILLA BOTANIST. While more traditional scientists are in their labs, staring at computer screens and study- ing DNA models and species databases, Rink is out in the wild, in search of the real thing. He has a reputation among naturalists in the Southwest for hiking far and fast — and for disproving widely accepted assumptions about Arizona’s plants. Rink’s old-school, boots-on-the-ground approach to botany has led to the discovery of new plant species and expanded known ranges for others. And he doesn’t just study plants; he experiences them. “I hike to look at plants,” Rink says as photographer Eirini Pajak and I traipse behind him.
