    INTRODUCTION OF ECONOMICALLY IMPORTANT BULBOUS PLANTS COLLECTED FROM WILD FLORA IN SEMI ARID CLIMATIC CONDITIONS OF SOUTHEASTERN ANATOLIAN REGION OF TURKEY Süleyman KIZIL1, Khalid Mahmood KHAWAR2 and Neşet ARSLAN2 1 Department of Field Crops, Agriculture Faculty, Dicle University, 21280 Diyarbakir, Turkey 2 Department of Field Crops, Agriculture Faculty, Ankara University, 06100 Ankara, Turkey Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Turkey has rich biodiversity due to its topography comprising of plains, plateaus and mountainous regions that have contributed to enrichment of its flora including bulbous plants. Many among these have potential for use in pharmaceutical and ornamental plant industries. However, owing to lack of proper research many among these plants are yet to be evaluated for commercial propagation. Leaves, bulbs and flowers among many plant parts are being evaluated locally as salads, vegetables, products of pharmaceutical importance and flowers for use in cut flower and ornamental plant industries. The study aimed to find economically important plant geophytes that grow in the wild of the South Eastern Anatolian climatic zones. To meet the objective, a field survey of bulbous geophytes of South Eastern and Eastern Anatolia was carried out during April-July periods of 2011 and 2012 years. The survey results indicated distribution of bulb geophytes at altitudes of 640 to 2651m. The geophytes belonging to the genus Allium, Biarum, Bellevalia, Crocus, Eranthis, Fritillaria, Gladiolus, Hyacinthus, Iris, Ixillirion, Muscari, Narcissus, Ornithogalum, Sternbergia, Scilla, Tulipa, Ophyrs and Orchis were collected. After initial screening, it was decided to culture 40 species; the bulbs of these species were planted in the collection gardens of the Department of Field Crops, Dicle University, Diyarbakir for determination of several parameters including, flowering date, duration of flowering time and other agronomical characteristics important for bulbous species.

  • ACONITE POISONING “L'imprudente”
    ACONITE POISONING “L’Imprudente”, oil on canvas, Elizabeth Jane Gardiner Bouguereau, 1884 “You are here to learn the subtle science and exact art of potion making”, he began. He spoke in barely more than a whisper, but they caught every word – like Professor McGonagall, Snape had the gift of keeping a class silent without effort. “As there is little foolish wand-waving here, many of you will hardly believe this is magic. I don’t expect you will really understand the beauty of the softly simmering cauldron with its shimmering fumes, the delicate power of liquids that creep through human veins, bewitching the mind, ensnaring the senses…I can teach you how to bottle fame, brew glory, even stopper death… …Snape was still ignoring Hermione’s quivering hand. “What is the difference, Potter, between Monkshood and Wolfsbane?” At this, Hermione stood up her hand stretching towards the dungeon ceiling. “I don’t know”, said Harry quietly. “I think Hermione does, though, why don’t you try her?”A few people laughed; Harry caught Seamus’s eyes and Seamus winked. Snape however was not pleased. Sit down, he snapped at Hermione. “For your information, Potter asphodel and wormwood make a sleeping potion so powerful it is known as the Draught of Living Death. A bezoar is a stone taken from the stomach of a goat and it will save you from most poisons. As for monkshood and wolfsbane, they are the same plant, which also goes by the name of aconite. Well? Why aren’t you all copying that down? Rowling JK.

  • Winter Aconite, Eranthis Hyemalis Winter Aconite (Eranthis Hyemalis) Is One of the Earliest Bulbs to Bloom in Spring
    A Horticulture Information article from the Wisconsin Master Gardener website, posted 27 March 2006 Winter Aconite, Eranthis hyemalis Winter aconite (Eranthis hyemalis) is one of the earliest bulbs to bloom in spring. This plant in the buttercup family (Ranunculaceae), native to Asia Minor and Europe, has small fl owers that resemble tiny buttercups. The solitary, yellow cup- shaped fl owers are surrounded by bright green bracts that look like a collar around the blossom. There are six petals in each fl ower and numerous stamens and pistils in the center. This small tuberous perennial is hardy in zones 4-7 (probably in zone 3 if mulched in Cheerful clumps of winter aconite greet the winter). spring. The low-growing plants form rounded clumps about (3-6“) tall and wide. The dark green leaves appear after the fl owers fade. Each narrow leaf is divided into several fi nger-shaped lobes. In summer the plant goes dormant, with the foliage dying back completely. If you have small Winter aconite has bright yellow fl owers. children or pets that are likely to dig in the garden you may not want winter aconite in your yard as the entire plant, but especially the tuber, is quite poisonous and may cause nausea, vomiting, colic attacks and visual disturbances. This ground-hugging plant works well in rock gardens, fl ower beds and woodland gardens. The fl owers fi rst appear in the sunniest spots, just before the fi rst snowdrops (Galanthus nivalis) begin to bloom. They can look charming together planted in the border or naturalized in the lawn.

  • Variation in Eranthis Hyemalis, Ficaria Verna, and Other Members of the Ranunculaceae, with Special Reference to Trimery and the Origin of the Perianth
    Variation in Eranthis hyemalis, Ficaria verna, and other Members of the Ranunculaceae, with Special Reference to Trimery and the Origin of the Perianth. BY E. J. SALISBURY, D.Sc, F.L.S., : Lecturer in Botany, East London College, Oniversily of London. With twenty Figures in the Text and Tables I-X. HE observations embodied in the present paper were made with a view T to obtaining more detailed information than was available regarding the structure of' indefinite ' flowers. The results seemed sufficiently inter- esting to warrant their publication, since they appear to justify certain con- clusions regarding the character of the perianth in the Ranunculaceae. The material employed has been derived from several widely separated localities, in order, as far as possible, to ensure the inclusion of extremes. Reliance has, however, been chiefly placed on a detailed examination of numerous specimens from one or two habitats. I.' ERANTHIS HYEMALIS, Salisbury. (a) The structure.of the normal flower. Examination of nearly four hundred specimens of Eranthis hyemalis shows that by far the greater number exhibit a coloured perianth of six members disposed in two whorls of three members each, thus corresponding to the one-third phyllotaxy of the foliage and scale-leaves (cf. Irmisch.,1860). •As the flower emerges from the soil (Salisbury, 1916 a) it is protected by an involucre of three bracts. These are connate at the base and form a whorl immediately below the flower. A close examination will show that of the three bracts one.is completely external, the adjacent member has one margin •underlapping and" the other' overlapping, whilst the third is completely internal.

  • Eranthis Hyemalis (L.) Salisb
    41 (1): (2017) 79-82 Note Refinding of the critically endangered species Eranthis hyemalis (L.) Salisb. in Western and Eastern Serbia Ivana Petrović1✳ and Dmitar Lakušić2 1 Department of Agrochemistry and Plant Physiology, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Belgrade, Nemanjina 6, 11070 Zemun, Serbia 2 Institute of Botany and Botanical Garden “Jevremovac”, Faculty of Biology, University of Belgrade, Takovska 43, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia ABSTRACT: Eranthis hyemalis is a critically endangered species in Serbia, where it is protected by national law. The only confirmed finding place of the species in Serbia was the Bagremara forest near Bačka Palanka. It was assumed that the species disappeared from other recorded localities, or else the data were not confirmed. During a field study in 2016, we registered this species in Valjevo, a town in Western Serbia. A previous record of the species at this locality dates from 1992, but the precise location was not known. We also registered a small population in Eastern Serbia (on the hill Vrška Čuka). Both localities were georeferenced with GPS devices. Small groups of individuals are present at these locations, and they are endangered by multiple factors. All chorological data for Serbia are presented on a UTM grid map with squares of 10 km × 10 km. Protection measures are urgently required. Keywords: Eranthis hyemalis, critically endangered, distribution, Serbia Received: 29 September 2016 Revision accepted: 26 January 2017 UDC: 582.5/.9:581.95(497.11) DOI: The genus Eranthis Salisb. of the family Ranunculaceae In Slovenia, Croatia and Hungary, it is considered a comprises seven species native to Europe and Asia.

  • Srgc Bulb Log Diary
    SRGC ----- Bulb Log Diary ----- ISSN 2514-6114 Pictures and text © Ian Young BULB LOG 03.....................16th January 2019 Responding to the mild winter conditions the shoots of many plants continue to grow, pushing through the carpet of fallen leaves. While I am happy to allow the leaves to form a natural mulch on some beds, in others I prefer to lift them using a leaf-vac that shreds and collects them in a bag. With care it is possible to lift the leaves without harming any of the emerging growths and then I immediately return the shredded leaves back as a mulch. You may well wonder why I bother but when the whole leaves get wet they can form a tough laminated carpet that strong pointed shoots are capable of penetrating but many bent shoots and newly germinating seed cannot. These germinating Eranthis seeds can have difficulty in forcing their way through layers of wet leaves. Leaf – vac Heap of shredded leaves. I tip them back on the bed and then spread them out as a mulch which all the shoots and seedlings are able to push through. When shredded the leaves can no longer form that tough laminated layer, plus, chopped up like this they break down quicker to feed the soil. Shredded leaf mulch spread out. The decision of when, or even if, to cut off last year’s still healthy attractive green leaves on such plants as hellebores and ferns is one I make depending on the growth of the subject and the surrounding plants. I like to enjoy the decoration of these winter green plants for as long as possible and they provide habitat for the garden wild life as I regularly watch the small birds foraging among their foliage but I have to balance that with the fact that they are competition to their new emerging growth plus that of other surrounding plants for space and light.

  • Flowering Bulbs
    Visit us on the Web: www.gardeninghelp.org Flowering Bulbs Hardy spring bulbs are some of the most colorful plants in the garden and among the earliest to flower. The season begins in February with snowdrops and winter aconites followed by crocuses, scillas, chionodoxas and daffodils in March; hyacinths and tulips in April. Spring bulbs are readily available each fall in local garden centers or hardware stores. Many bulbs are also available through mail order suppliers, who send out catalogs in mid-summer. When selecting bulbs, study your needs, and know what types and cultivars are suited to your conditions. A good way to gather ideas for your own garden is by strolling through the Missouri Botanical Garden in the spring. In addition to spring bulbs there are several different types of bulbous plants. Gladiolus and crocus are corms which are stems that are modified into a mass of storage tissue. Dahlias have tuberous roots with eyes or buds found either at the neck or at intervals on the surface. Tubers, such as caladiums, are a solid mass of enlarged stems. Cannas and many irises have rhizomes which are swollen horizontal stems at or just below the soil surface. Commercial collecting of bulbs and bulbous plants from the wild has threatened to drive many species to extinction. To avoid purchasing plants that have been dug from the wild, gardeners should look for certification in catalogs and nurseries that all plants are nursery-propagated. Lady’s slipper orchids (Cypripedium sp.), giant snowdrops (Galanthus elwesii, winter aconite (Eranthis sp.) and windfiowers (Anemone sp.) are particularly susceptible to poaching from the wild.
