  • Tamarack (Larix Laricina) by Joyce Tuharsky
    Natives to Know: Tamarack (Larix Laricina) By Joyce Tuharsky One of our northernmost trees, the hardy Tamarack is a slender-trunked, conical tree that grows 50-75 feet tall. The needles are a bright blue-green and surprisingly soft. They grow in tight spirals around short knobby spurs along the twigs. Tamaracks are among the few conifers that lose their needles in autumn. Just before the needles drop, the needles turn a beautiful golden-yellow. Tamarack cones are egg-shaped and among the smallest: less than an inch long. The bark is tight and flaky. Under this flaking bark, the wood appears reddish, giving the tree an interesting appearance even without needles. Very cold tolerant, Tamaracks are able to survive temperatures down to −85 °F. They are commonly found at the arctic tree line where it grows as a shrub. In more southerly locations, Tamaracks are normally found in wet soils in swamps, bogs and along lake edges. They are among the first trees to invade filled-lake bogs and are fairly well adapted to reproduce after a fire. However, because of its thin bark and shallow root system, the tree itself does not stand up well to fire. Also, the seedlings do not establish well in shade. Consequently, other more shade tolerant species eventually succeed Tamaracks. Tamaracks are native to much of Canada and south into the northeastern US from Minnesota to West Virginia. Because obits extensive range, the tree is known by many names: American Larch, Eastern Larch, Red Larch, and Hackmatack. The name “Tamarack” is Algonquian and means "wood used for snowshoes."Indeed, because Tamarack wood is very sturdy, yet flexible in thin strips, Native Americans used the wood and roots for many things: snowshoes, toboggans, sewing edges of canoes, and weaving twined bags.

  • Henderson, L. (2007). Invasive, Naturalized and Casual Alien Plants in Southern Africa
    Bothalia 37,2: 215–248 (2007) Invasive, naturalized and casual alien plants in southern Africa: a sum- mary based on the Southern African Plant Invaders Atlas (SAPIA) L. HENDERSON* Keywords: biomes, casual alien plants, invasive plants, Lesotho, naturalized plants, roadside surveys, SAPIA mapping project, South Africa, Swaziland ABSTRACT The primary objective of this publication is to provide an overview of the species identity, invasion status, geographical extent, and abundance of alien plants in South Africa, Swaziland and Lesotho, based on fi eld records from 1979 to the end of 2000. The dataset is all the species records for the study area in the Southern African Plant Invaders Atlas (SAPIA) database during this time period. A total of 548 naturalized and casual alien plant species were catalogued and invasion was recorded almost throughout the study area. Most invasion, in terms of both species numbers and total species abundance, was recorded along the southern, southwestern and eastern coastal belts and in the adjacent interior. This area includes the whole of the Fynbos and Forest Biomes, and the moister eastern parts of the Grassland and Savanna Biomes. This study reinforces previous studies that the Fynbos Biome is the most extensively invaded vegetation type in South Africa but it also shows that parts of Savanna and Grassland are as heavily invaded as parts of the Fynbos. The Fabaceae is prominent in all biomes and Acacia with 17 listed species, accounts for a very large proportion of all invasion. Acacia mearnsii was by far the most prominent invasive species in the study area, followed by A.

Status Koch Please consult the PLANTS Web site and your State Plant Symbol = LALA Department of Natural Resources for this plant’s current status, such as, state noxious status and Contributed by: USDA NRCS National Plant Data wetland indicator values. Center & the Biota of North America Program Description General: Pine Family (Pinaceae). Native trees growing to 20 meters tall, strongly self-pruning, with a straight, slender trunk and narrow, open, pyramidal crown that occupies one-third to one-half the bole length 25-30 years; branches whorled, horizontal or slightly ascending; short (spur) shoots prominent on twigs 2 years or more old. Bark of young trees is gray, smooth, becoming reddish brown and scaly. Leaves are deciduous, needlelike, 1-2 cm long, pale blue-green, produced in clusters on short shoots or singly along the long shoots, yellowing and shed in the fall. Seed cones are 1-2 cm long, upright; seeds winged, the bodies 2-3 mm long. The common name is the Algonquian Indian name for the plant. Variation within the species: the Alaskan populations of Larix laricina have been described as a different species (Larix alaskensis = Larix laricina var. alaskensis) on the basis of narrower cone scales and bracts, but the variability is now generally recognized as within the range of other populations of the species. Genetic differences in photoperiodic response, germination, and growth patterns have been documented among trees taken from various parts of R.

  • Tamarack an American Wood United States Department of Agriculture
    Forest Service Tamarack An American Wood United States Department of Agriculture FS-268 Tamarack grows from Maine to Min- nesota, throughout much of Canada, and in Alaska. Most of its volume in the United States is in the northern Lake States and Maine. The tree, whose needles fall in autumn, is found especially on wet lowlands where it grows fast in full sunlight. The brownish heartwood contrasts with the narrow, whitish sapwood. The wood- one of the heaviest of the northern conifers–is medium to fine textured, odorless, tasteless, and somewhat oily. It rates intermediate in strength, is easi- ly pulped, and has fairly high heating value. Recent use has been largely for pulp products, but in earlier days tamarack was used in the construction of wooden ships and for lumber. An American Wood Tamarack (Larix laricina (Du Roi) K. Koch) William F. Johnston1 and Eugene M. Carpenter2 Distribution Tamarack has one of the widest ranges of all North American conifers (fig. 1). The tree grows throughout much of Canada, with a range extending to the northern limit of tree growth. In the United States tamarack's main range extends from Maine to Minnesota; the tree also grows locally as far south as northern West Virginia. A major dis- junct area occurs in the Yukon and Kuskokwim drainages in interior Alaska. In the United States tamarack is most abundant in the northern Lake States, particularly Minnesota, where it grows mainly on glacial lakebeds and lake- swamp-moraine plains at elevations averaging about 1,000 feet. The tree is also abundant in Maine from elevations of less than 500 feet to more than 1,000 feet.
