  • Phylogeny and Historical Biogeography of Geraniaceae In
    Systematic Botany (2008), 33(2): pp. 326–342 © Copyright 2008 by the American Society of Plant Taxonomists Phylogeny and Historical Biogeography of Geraniaceae in Relation to Climate Changes and Pollination Ecology Omar Fiz, Pablo Vargas, Marisa Alarcón, Carlos Aedo, José Luis García, and Juan José Aldasoro1 Real Jardín Botanico de Madrid, CSIC, Plaza de Murillo 2, 28014 Madrid, Spain 1Author for correspondence ([email protected]) Communicating Editor: Mark P. Simmons Abstract—Chloroplast (trnL–F and rbcL) sequences were used to reconstruct the phylogeny of Geraniaceae and Hypseocharitaceae. According to these data Hypseocharitaceae and Geraniaceae are monophyletic. Pelargonium and Monsonia are sisters to the largest clade of Geraniaceae, formed by Geranium, Erodium and California. According to molecular dating and dispersal-vicariance analysis, the split of the stem branches of Geraniaceae probably occurred during the Oligocene, in southern Africa or in southern Africa plus the Mediterranean area. However, their diversification occurred during the Miocene, coinciding with the beginning of major aridification events in their distribution areas. An ancestor of the largest clade of Geraniaceae (Geranium, Erodium, and California) colonised a number of habitats in the northern hemisphere and in South American mountain ranges. In summary, the evolution of the Geraniaceae is marked by the dispersal of ancestors from Southern Africa to cold, temperate and often disturbed habitats in the rest of world, where only generalist pollination and facultative autogamy could ensure sufficient seed production and survival. Keywords—autocompatibility, dispersal-vicariance, drought-tolerance, molecular dating, nectaries, P/O indexes. The Geraniaceae are included in the order Geraniales along are characteristic of the Afro-Arabian land mass (Hutchin- with the families Francoaceae, Greyiaceae, Ledocarpaceae, son 1969).

  • Clethra, Or Summersweet, Attracts Butterflies and Numerous Pollinators and Is a Great Alternative to the Invasive Butterfly Bush
    Share this: Clethra, or Summersweet, attracts butterflies and numerous pollinators and is a great alternative to the invasive butterfly bush. Its bright green leaves are followed by fragrant spires of flowers in mid to late summer. Here at the nursery, they are about to pop into bloom any day now. We carry the following selections. All Clethra prefer a moist to wet site, sun to light shade. Clethra alnifolia: Grows 4' or more, white blossoms. One of the easiest butterfly shrubs you can have. This is the 'straight species' that occurs naturally in low areas around woodlands and wetlands. Clethra alnifolia 'Ruby Spice': This selection bears deep rose-colored, non-fading fragrant flowers. 6'-8' high. Clethra alnifolia 'Hummingbird': A dwarf selection that grows 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 feet tall. Clethra alnifolia 'Sixteen Candles'" Lustrous dark green foliage, 4" to 6" racemes are held upright like birthday candles (pictured on far left). The shrub reaches 3'-5'. SUMMER BLOOMING PERENNIALS If you have not visited the nursery yet, now is the time. Summer is when native plants out-do themselves with color. Combined with the many insects and birds they support, the show is non-stop. Visit our demonstration gardens and view the selection of over 300 native species we offer for sale. Many of our plants are seed grown to enhance genetic diversity in the ecosystem. What People Are Saying About Classes at Edge of the Woods "Thanks so much! I had a great time and learned a lot"! "Everyone was so friendly and helpful. I'm glad I came." "I am so glad I came, I never visited before and will definitely be back." Edge of the Woods Native Plant Nursery is a women-owned, independent business.

I first became enamored with this spe- cies as a student at Longwood Gardens, where I admired its elegant form as part of the backdrop to the famed Flower Garden Walk. While I later saw several very fine examples of Japanese clethra in the great gardens of the Delaware Valley, none approached the singular beauty and character of the Arnold Arboretum’s specimen. Like many plants in the Arboretum’s collec- tions, this accession comes with an impressive pedigree, tracing back to Japan in 1886.

  • Checklist of the Washington Baltimore Area
    Annotated Checklist of the Vascular Plants of the Washington - Baltimore Area Part I Ferns, Fern Allies, Gymnosperms, and Dicotyledons by Stanwyn G. Shetler and Sylvia Stone Orli Department of Botany National Museum of Natural History 2000 Department of Botany, National Museum of Natural History Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC 20560-0166 ii iii PREFACE The better part of a century has elapsed since A. S. Hitchcock and Paul C. Standley published their succinct manual in 1919 for the identification of the vascular flora in the Washington, DC, area. A comparable new manual has long been needed. As with their work, such a manual should be produced through a collaborative effort of the region’s botanists and other experts. The Annotated Checklist is offered as a first step, in the hope that it will spark and facilitate that effort. In preparing this checklist, Shetler has been responsible for the taxonomy and nomenclature and Orli for the database. We have chosen to distribute the first part in preliminary form, so that it can be used, criticized, and revised while it is current and the second part (Monocotyledons) is still in progress. Additions, corrections, and comments are welcome. We hope that our checklist will stimulate a new wave of fieldwork to check on the current status of the local flora relative to what is reported here. When Part II is finished, the two parts will be combined into a single publication. We also maintain a Web site for the Flora of the Washington-Baltimore Area, and the database can be searched there (http://www.nmnh.si.edu/botany/projects/dcflora).

Hal ini disebabkan pesatnya perubahan fungsi lahan di dataran yang lebih rendah di pulau tersebut, terutama untuk kebutuhan pertanian. Walaupun jenis-jenis endemik diperkirakan kurang dari 50 % dari total jumlah jenis tumbuhan lokal, kelompok ini sangat penting untuk konservasi. Hal ini disebabkan kurangnya informasi yang telah diketahui terhadap jenis-jenis tersebut sedangkan pada saat yang sama habitatnya terancam oleh aktifitas pariwisata, terutama pada jalur yang menuju ke kaldera. Strategi konservasi yang memastikan ke- lestarian jenis-jenis ini perlu segera ditetapkan.
