    Department of Planning and Zoning Subject: Howard County Landscape Manual Updates: Recommended Street Tree List (Appendix B) and Recommended Plant List (Appendix C) - Effective July 1, 2010 To: DLD Review Staff Homebuilders Committee From: Kent Sheubrooks, Acting Chief Division of Land Development Date: July 1, 2010 Purpose: The purpose of this policy memorandum is to update the Recommended Plant Lists presently contained in the Landscape Manual. The plant lists were created for the first edition of the Manual in 1993 before information was available about invasive qualities of certain recommended plants contained in those lists (Norway Maple, Bradford Pear, etc.). Additionally, diseases and pests have made some other plants undesirable (Ash, Austrian Pine, etc.). The Howard County General Plan 2000 and subsequent environmental and community planning publications such as the Route 1 and Route 40 Manuals and the Green Neighborhood Design Guidelines have promoted the desirability of using native plants in landscape plantings. Therefore, this policy seeks to update the Recommended Plant Lists by identifying invasive plant species and disease or pest ridden plants for their removal and prohibition from further planting in Howard County and to add other available native plants which have desirable characteristics for street tree or general landscape use for inclusion on the Recommended Plant Lists. Please note that a comprehensive review of the street tree and landscape tree lists were conducted for the purpose of this update, however, only

  • Native Trees of Georgia
    1 NATIVE TREES OF GEORGIA By G. Norman Bishop Professor of Forestry George Foster Peabody School of Forestry University of Georgia Currently Named Daniel B. Warnell School of Forest Resources University of Georgia GEORGIA FORESTRY COMMISSION Eleventh Printing - 2001 Revised Edition 2 FOREWARD This manual has been prepared in an effort to give to those interested in the trees of Georgia a means by which they may gain a more intimate knowledge of the tree species. Of about 250 species native to the state, only 92 are described here. These were chosen for their commercial importance, distribution over the state or because of some unusual characteristic. Since the manual is intended primarily for the use of the layman, technical terms have been omitted wherever possible; however, the scientific names of the trees and the families to which they belong, have been included. It might be explained that the species are grouped by families, the name of each occurring at the top of the page over the name of the first member of that family. Also, there is included in the text, a subdivision entitled KEY CHARACTERISTICS, the purpose of which is to give the reader, all in one group, the most outstanding features whereby he may more easily recognize the tree. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The author wishes to express his appreciation to the Houghton Mifflin Company, publishers of Sargent’s Manual of the Trees of North America, for permission to use the cuts of all trees appearing in this manual; to B. R. Stogsdill for assistance in arranging the material; to W.

ABSTRACT OF THESIS CHARACTERIZATION OF POLYPHENOL OXIDASE AND ANTIOXIDANTS FROM PAWPAW (ASIMINA TRIBOLA) FRUIT Crude polyphenol oxidase (PPO) was extracted from pawpaw (Asimina triloba) fruit. The enzyme exhibited a maximum activity at pH 6.5–7.0 and 5–20 °C, and had -1 a maximum catalysis rate (Vmax) of 0.1363 s and a reaction constant (Km) of 0.3266 M. It was almost completely inactivated when incubated at 80 °C for 10 min. Two isoforms of PPO (MW 28.2 and 38.3 kDa) were identified by Sephadex gel filtration chromatography and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Both the concentration and the total activity of the two isoforms differed (P < 0.05) between seven genotypes of pawpaw tested. Thermal stability (92 °C, 1–5 min) and colorimetry (L* a* b*) analyses showed significant variations between genotypes.

  • Tree and Shrub Tolerance to De-Icing Salt Spray
    Michigan State University Extension Home Horticulture - 03900109 01/01/96 TREE AND SHRUB TOLERANCE TO DE-ICING SALT SPRAY Over the past 10 to 15 years, trees and shrubs along major highways in Michigan and other northern states have shown dessication injuries. The damage varies with variety - those plants with sticky, pubescent, or sunken buds appear to be somewhat more tolerant than those plants with smooth, exposed buds. Tolerance to dessication can be attributed to a number of things -- for example, the tolerant evergreens may be protected from injury due to a thick coating of wax on their needles. It is much more difficult to characterize the tolerance nature of deciduous species, as Various deciduous species exhibit a malformation of growth like a witch's broom when injured. The cause of this injury is the salt spray that splashes or drifts onto roadside trees following highway de-icing operations. Damage is most prominent in urban areas and seems to be linked to more frequent salt applications and to traffic density. The symptoms are most pronounced on sensitive plants close to the highway, but have been observed some 250 feet down wind of the traffic. Sensitive plants may exhibit injury to a height of 20 to 25 feet, although lower branches protected by snow may escape injury. Depending upon the snow cover, a zone of injury may extend from three to eight feet above the ground to a height of 20 to 25 feet. Following is a summary of the average salt spray tolerances of various plants bordering selected Michigan highways.

  • Diospyros Virginiana: Common Persimmon1 Edward F
    ENH390 Diospyros virginiana: Common Persimmon1 Edward F. Gilman, Dennis G. Watson, Ryan W. Klein, Andrew K. Koeser, Deborah R. Hilbert, and Drew C. McLean2 Introduction Uses: fruit; reclamation; specimen; urban tolerant; highway median; bonsai An excellent small to medium tree, common persimmon is an interesting, somewhat irregularly-shaped native tree, for possible naturalizing in yards or parks. Bark is grey or black and distinctly blocky with orange in the valleys between the blocks. Fall color can be a spectacular red in USDA hardiness zones 4 through 8a. It is well adapted to cities, but presents a problem with fruit litter, attracting flies and scavengers, such as opossums and other mammals. Its mature height can be 60 feet, with branches spreading from 20 to 35 feet and a trunk two feet thick, but it is commonly much shorter in landscapes. The trunk typically ascends up through the crown in a curved but very dominant fashion, rarely producing double or multiple leaders. Lateral branches are typically much smaller in diameter than the trunk. General Information Scientific name: Diospyros virginiana Pronunciation: dye-OSS-pih-ross ver-jin-nee-AY-nuh Common name(s): common persimmon Family: Ebenaceae USDA hardiness zones: 4B through 9B (Figure 2) Origin: native to the southern two-thirds of the eastern United States UF/IFAS Invasive Assessment Status: native Figure 1.

  • S M Acer Saccharinum L
    S M Acer saccharinum L. bundant in some localities, silver A maple is a common tree, found throughout the state except along the coast. It grows largely on sandy banks along streams, usually attaining a height of 60–80 feet and a diameter of 2–3 feet. The trunk normally separates into 3 or 4 upright secondary stems, devoid of branches for some distance. The branches are long and slender, often pendulous. The bark on young trees is smooth, gray, slightly tinged with red. On old trees, it is reddish-brown, fur- rowed, and separated into large thin scales that are loose at the bottom.Twigs are chestnut brown and shiny. The leaves are opposite, deeply In Maine, silver maple is most five-lobed; and the edges are irregular common along major rivers. and sharply toothed. The upper surface is pale green, the lower, silvery white. They turn a pale yellow in fall. 76 SILVER MAPLE E L P A M The flowers are on very short stalks and in clusters. They are green- ish-yellow or sometimes pinkish, open- ing early, long before the leaves appear. The fruit is paired, winged and ripens in spring. Frequently, one of the pair does not fully develop. The twigs are curved upward at the tip, orange or red-brown above and green below, slender, with a bitter taste and a rank odor when broken. The wood is softer than that Silver maple has large globe-shaped flower of the hard maple, close-grained, not buds and smaller vegetative buds. durable and easily worked.
