Heuchera/X Heucherella/Tiarella
Heuchera/x Heucherella/Tiarella Mark Begick The family Saxifragaceae comprises chiefly north temperate plants and includes many alpine and arctic species of xerophytic habit. This makes them adaptable and able to survive under different conditions, which is the reason why saxifrages, in particular) are so often used for dry rockery plantings. The Saxifragaceae is a large family and includes many easily recognizable genera (e.g., Astilbe, Bergenia, Heuchera, Heucherella, Rogersia, Saxifraga, and Tiarella, just to name a few). Species and cultivars of Bergenia and Heuchera are tough and persistent, so make good border plants for cool climates. Heuchera – The Coral Bells The genus Heuchera is named after Johann Heinrich von Heucher, who was a German professor of medicine. Fifty to seventy species are native to North America but only H. sanguinea, coral bells, and hybrids have gained popularity in North American gardens. These plants are either evergreen or semi- evergreen. Most of the improved cultivars are hybrids between H. sanguinea, H. americana, and H. micrantha. Many of these hybridized plants are ornamentally chosen for their colorful foliage. A few do have ornamental flowers of white, pink, or red . Heucheras do best in rich, moist well-drained soils in partial shade. They are better adapted to cooler climates, and sometimes this can enhance leaf color, especially in fall. x Heucherella – The Foamy Bells Many examples of hybrids between species of a genus occur but there are a few between genera. x Heucherella (the x denotes an intergeneric cross but is not sounded) was produced in 1912 at Nancy in France between a Heuchera hybrid and Tiarella cordifolia. -
Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page. Basal Angiosperms (ANITA grade) Amborellales Amborellaceae, sole family, the earliest branch of flowering plants, a shrub native to New Caledonia – Amborella Nymphaeales Hydatellaceae – aquatics from Australasia, previously classified as a grass Cabombaceae (water shield – Brasenia, fanwort – Cabomba) Nymphaeaceae (water lilies – Nymphaea; pond lilies – Nuphar) Austrobaileyales Schisandraceae (wild sarsaparilla, star vine – Schisandra; Japanese -

The purpose of the guide is to provide the necessary information about variety selection, planting requirements, and plant care that growers will need to make informed decisions. This guide will look at blackcurrants, red currants (including white and pink, which are of the same species as reds), and gooseberries. While not all varieties are included in this guide, we cover those that seem to have the most potential for the North American market. Common varieties such as Pixwell, Oregon Champion, Colossal (gooseberries), Consort, Ben Nevis, Crandall, Ben Lomond, Ben Alder (black currants) have been surpassed by the introduction of varieties that combine higher yields, better disease resistance and superior fruit qualities. In future editions of this guide we will discuss new and relevant varieties as they are made available, as well as updated information on yields, pests, and information from the plant trials that will be taking place across North America. -
Saxifragaceae Saxifrage Family
Saxifragaceae Page | 921 saxifrage family About 700 species in 40 genera comprise this family of herbs and shrubs. Nova Scotia has several representative species, ranging from the highland saxifrages to deciduous forest mitreworts. Calyx and corolla are 4-5-merous. Sepals appear to be lobes of the hypanthium. Petals are variable in size and dissection. Stamens are equal in number or double the number of sepals and petals. Pistils number one or three; carpels 2–5, united basally to form a compound ovary, which may be deeply lobed. Fruit is dehiscent. Leaves are alternate with or without stipules, basal or cauline. Several genera are cultivated, but not persisting outside of cultivation. Key to genera A. Leaves opposite, cauline; plant sprawling; flowers 4-merous; petals absent. Chrysosplenium aa. Leaves mostly in a basal rosette, or very small and alternate; plants erect; B flowers 5-merous; petals present. B. Flowers solitary; stamens equal in number to the petals. Parnassia bb. Flowers several to numerous; stamens double the number of petals. C C. Leaves small, crowded, sessile or nearly so. Saxifraga cc. Leaves mostly basal, on long petioles. D D. Leaves serrate; petals entire; capsule beak Tiarella acute. dd. Leaves crenate; petals finely cleft; capsule beak Mitella obtuse. Chrysosplenium L. Plants of cool regions, all 40 species have minute flowers. Petals are absent; calyx is four-merous. Flowers are perfect and perigynous. Hypanthium has eight lobes in its centre, with 4–8 stamens attached. Perennial creeping herbs, they are freely branched, their leaves simple. 3-81 Saxifragaceae Page | 922 Chrysosplenium americanum Schwein. Golden saxifrage; dorine d'Amérique A smooth, nearly succulent plant, it has many trailing branches, forming thick mats. -

Saxifraga Hirculus L
Saxifraga hirculus L. Marsh Saxifrage Saxifraga hirculus is a very rare saxifrage with narrow spear-shaped leaves and yellow petals often with distinctive orange spotting. It is a shy-flowering plant of nutrient-poor, moderately base-rich or weakly acidic mossy flushes and mires. It has a restricted distribution, with the bulk of populations found in the North Pennines, with other key locations including the Munsary Peatlands in Caithness and fens and flushes in Bellacorick, West Mayo. Plants are sensitive to alterations in hydrology, soil chemistry and grazing pressure. It is assessed as Vulnerable in Great Britain as a whole, but Least Concern in England due to the recent discovery of a number of over-looked populations. ©Jeremy Roberts IDENTIFICATION ovary. Contrary to some field guides, S. hirculus and S. aizoides are distinct: S. hirculus has a superior ovary (i.e. the Saxifraga hirculus is very distinctive in bloom, with showy petals radiate from its base), usually borne singly; S. aizoides yellow flowers, borne singly, more rarely in pairs. Petals often has clustered flowers, with a half-inferior ovary that appears have distinctive orange spotting. However, flowering is often ‘embedded’ in the ring of petals. A differing size-ratio of petals poor, and vegetative identification is required. to sepals in the two plants also makes the flowers of S.

No Trouble Alex Pankhurst
No Trouble Alex Pankhurst Years ago I visited a Garden Luminary. It was autumn, and I was there to gather information for a book, not admire the garden. Nor was I offered a tour, but what could be seen of it disappointed. I had expected exciting, and probably rare, horticultural treasures. But the owner was elderly, and the garden appeared to consist largely of groundcover plants. I felt ©Trevor Walton /HPS Photo Library Walton ©Trevor cheated and somewhat puzzled. When you love plants, how could you be satisfied with that? Fig. 1 Omphalodes cappadocica Nearly two decades on, I have more ‘Cherry Ingram’. sympathy. With old age on the horizon, my gardening outlook has shifted. I’ve now regretfully abandoned the most labour-intensive plants – dreadful spreaders, and annuals and biennials such as foxgloves and poppies that © Alex Pankhurst © seed like crazy – in favour of things which are less demanding of time and one’s back. Traditional ‘ground cover’ plants are the stock answer for an easy-care garden, and media gardening bods encourage the view that they are a panacea. ‘All you have to do is...’, they advise glibly, holding out the promise of a wonderful, problem-free garden. That’s like saying that Fig. 2 Caltha palustris ‘Flore Pleno’ bringing up children is unalloyed joy from start with Heuchera ‘Emperor’s Cloak’ to finish.
