  • Common Yellow Woodsorrel
    A Horticulture Information article from the Wisconsin Master Gardener website, posted 23 May 2008 Common Yellow Woodsorrel Common yellow woodsorrel, Oxalis stricta, is a native North American plant (also found in Eurasia) which is usually considered a weed. It has numerous common names, including common yellow oxalis, sour grass, shamrock, sleeping beauty, sour trefoil, and sheep’s clover. It also has many synonyms: Ceratoxalis coloradensis, O. dillenii, O. europaea, O. prostrate, O. rupestris, and Xanthoxalis fl orida. It is found in 46 states, but is most numerous in the eastern U. S. and into Canada. This species differs from other wood sorrels by being more erect, the stems grow at a sharp angle (about 90º) from the main stem and Common yellow woodsorrel. the seed pods bend sharply upward on their stalks. Common yellow woodsorrel is distinct from other wood sorrels in that the seed pods bend sharply upward on their stalks, and the stalks also grow at a sharp angle from the main stalk (both angles are about 90 degrees). It also tends to grow in a more upright fashion than other An infestation of common yellow woodsorrel. wood sorrels (stricta means “upright”). This herbaceous plant may grow either as an annual or as a weak perennial. Although it prefers moist soil, and partial shade, it is tolerant of a wide range of conditions. It is commonly found in fi elds, woods and borders, along roadsides and in other waste areas, and will even grow in the cracks of sidewalks. It is also a common summer annual in lawns.

  • Oxalis Violacea L. Violet Wood-Sorrel
    New England Plant Conservation Program Oxalis violacea L. Violet Wood-Sorrel Conservation and Research Plan for New England Prepared by: Thomas Mione Professor Central Connecticut State University For: New England Wild Flower Society 180 Hemenway Road Framingham, MA 01701 508/877-7630 e-mail: [email protected] • website: www.newfs.org Approved, Regional Advisory Council, December 2002 1 SUMMARY Violet Wood-Sorrel (Oxalis violacea L., Oxalidaceae) is a low-growing herbaceous, self-incompatible perennial that produces violet flowers in May, June and again in September. Reproduction is both sexual (with pollination mostly by bees), and asexual (by way of runners). The species is widely distributed in the United States but is rare in New England. Oxalis violacea is an obligate outcrosser: the species is distylous, meaning that there are two flower morphs (pin and thrum), with a given plant producing one morph, not both. Pin flowers are more common than thrum flowers. In New England, the habitat varies from dry to moist, and for populations to remain vigorous forest canopies must remain partially open. Succession, the growth of plants leading to shading, is a factor contributing to decline of O. violacea in New England, as are invasive species and habitat fragmentation. Fire benefits this species, in part by removing competitors. Human consumption of the leaves has been reported. Oxalis violacea has a Global Status Rank of G5, indicating that it is demonstrably widespread, abundant and secure. In Massachusetts, it is ranked as Threatened; five occurrences are current (in four towns among three counties) and 10 are historic. In Connecticut, it is listed as a species of Special Concern; 10 occurrences are current (in ten towns among six counties) and 19 are historic.

  • Kentucky Unwanted Plants
    Chapter 6 A Brief Guide to Kentucky’s Non-Native, Invasive Species, Common Weeds, and Other Unwanted Plants A publication of the Louisville Water Company Wellhead Protection Plan, Phase III Source Reduction Grant # X9-96479407-0 Chapter 6 A Brief Guide to Kentucky’s Non-native, Invasive Species, Common Weeds and Other Unwanted Plants What is an invasive exotic plant? A plant is considered exotic, (alien, foreign, non- indigenous, non-native), when it has been introduced by humans to a location outside its native or natural range. Most invasive, exotic plants have escaped cultivation or have spread from its origin and have become a problem or a potential problem in natural biological communities. For example, black locust, a tree that is native to the southern Appalachian region and portions of Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri, was planted throughout the U.S. for living fences, erosion control, and other uses for many years. Black locust is considered exotic outside its natural native range because it got to these places Kudzu is an invasive exotic plant that has spread by human introduction rather than by natural from Japan and China to become a large problem in dispersion. It has become invasive, displacing native much of the US. Local, state, and the federal species and adversely impacting ecosystems and governments spend millions of dollars per year to several endangered native bird species that depend on control the spread of kudzu. Even yearly control other plants for food, as well as several endangered may not be enough to successfully remove kudzu. Seeds can remain dormant in the plant species.

  • Southern Garden History Plant Lists
    Southern Plant Lists Southern Garden History Society A Joint Project With The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation September 2000 1 INTRODUCTION Plants are the major component of any garden, and it is paramount to understanding the history of gardens and gardening to know the history of plants. For those interested in the garden history of the American south, the provenance of plants in our gardens is a continuing challenge. A number of years ago the Southern Garden History Society set out to create a ‘southern plant list’ featuring the dates of introduction of plants into horticulture in the South. This proved to be a daunting task, as the date of introduction of a plant into gardens along the eastern seaboard of the Middle Atlantic States was different than the date of introduction along the Gulf Coast, or the Southern Highlands. To complicate maters, a plant native to the Mississippi River valley might be brought in to a New Orleans gardens many years before it found its way into a Virginia garden. A more logical project seemed to be to assemble a broad array plant lists, with lists from each geographic region and across the spectrum of time. The project’s purpose is to bring together in one place a base of information, a data base, if you will, that will allow those interested in old gardens to determine the plants available and popular in the different regions at certain times. This manual is the fruition of a joint undertaking between the Southern Garden History Society and the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. In choosing lists to be included, I have been rather ruthless in expecting that the lists be specific to a place and a time.

    AGAIN: TAXONOMY OF YELLOW-FLOWERED CAULESCENT OXALIS (OXALIDACEAE) IN EASTERN NORTH AMERICA Guy L. Nesom 2925 Hartwood Drive Fort Worth, Texas 76109, U.S.A. [email protected] ABSTRACT The taxonomy of Oxalis sect. Corniculatae is revised for eastern North America and contrasted with previous classifications and circum- scriptions, particularly those of Eiten and Lourteig. Eight taxa, some previously recognized as subspecies or varieties, are recognized here at species rank. Oxalis stricta L. and O. dillenii Jacq. sensu stricto are appropriately identified in the sense that Eiten used the names. Oxalis florida Salisb. (= O. dillenii subsp. filipes) is a distinct species primarily of the Atlantic states and Gulf coast, less common in more inland regions. Oxalis priceae Small is a distinct species of the southeastern USA without infraspecific taxa; disjunct populations occur in northeastern Mexico. Oxalis texana (Small) Fedde (= Oxalis priceae subsp. texana) is treated as a distinct species of east Texas and adjacent Louisiana and Arkansas. Oxalis texana is close in morphology to O. dillenii sensu stricto and occurs sympatrically with it but distinct in geography and morphology from O. priceae sensu stricto. Oxalis illinoensis Schwegm. is geographically and morphologically distinct from O. grandis Small. Neotypes are designated for O. lyonii and O. illinoensis. RESUMEN The taxonomy of Oxalis sect.
