Plants propagated from our own members’ yards will be available again this year as well as plants and bulbs sourced from near and far that are unique, interesting, and well suited for area gardens.

  • Fruit and Native Trees
    FRUIT AND NATIVE ORNAMENTAL TREES Annona muricata Laguana, soursop A popular fruit on Guam, laguana is one of the seven fast-to-fruit trees recommended for planting in the “Seven Trees, Seven Practices” agroforestry education project conducted by CNAS Extension and Outreach personnel. A valuable tropical tree, laguana fruit is high in vitamins C and B and antioxidants. The leaves, bark and seeds are used medicinally and have been found to support anticancer, antiparasitic and insecticidal activity. Originally from Mexico and South America, Annona muricata is grown in tropical regions around the world. Photo credits: Olympia Terral Ficus carica Fig Ficus carica is one of the seven fast-to- fruit trees recommended for planting in the “Seven Trees, Seven Practices” agroforestry education project conducted by CNAS Extension and Outreach personnel. Originally from Asia Minor and the Mediterranean, figs are currently cultivated worldwide. Fig trees can tolerate a range of soil types but require good drainage. Figs have a high concentration of phytosterols, which block the absorption of cholesterol in the body, helping to maintain healthy cholesterol levels. Figs are high in potassium, which helps to control blood pressure, making them an excellent snack choice for people who have high blood pressure. Photo credits: Olympia Terral Elaeocarpus joga Yoga, blue marble tree This striking tree is indigenous to the Mariana Islands and produces beautiful flowers and vibrant blue marble-sized fruit. The blue color is not caused by blue pigmentation in the fruit; rather, it is an optical phenomenon due to the refraction of light. The authors of Trees and Shrubs of the Northern Mariana Islands recommend planting yoga trees in reforestation efforts and as an ornamental in parks and home gardens.

  • Woody and Herbaceous Plants Native to Haiti for Use in Miami-Dade Landscapes1
    Woody and Herbaceous Plants Native to Haiti For use in Miami-Dade Landscapes1 Haiti occupies the western one third of the island of Hispaniola with the Dominican Republic the remainder. Of all the islands within the Caribbean basin Hispaniola possesses the most varied flora after that of Cuba. The plants contained in this review have been recorded as native to Haiti, though some may now have been extirpated due in large part to severe deforestation. Less than 1.5% of the country’s original tree-cover remains. Haiti’s future is critically tied to re- forestation; loss of tree cover has been so profound that exotic fast growing trees, rather than native species, are being used to halt soil erosion and lessen the risk of mudslides. For more information concerning Haiti’s ecological plight consult references at the end of this document. For present purposes all of the trees listed below are native to Haiti, which is why non-natives such as mango (the most widely planted tree) and other important trees such as citrus, kassod tree (Senna siamea) and lead tree (Leucanea leucocephala) are not included. The latter two trees are among the fast growing species used for re-forestation. The Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History’s Flora of the West Indies was an invaluable tool in assessing the range of plants native to Haiti. Not surprisingly many of the listed trees and shrubs 1 John McLaughlin Ph.D. U.F./Miami-Dade County Extension Office, Homestead, FL 33030 Page | 1 are found in other parts of the Caribbean with some also native to South Florida.

    ENH1228 Plumeria: Propagation from Cuttings1 Andrew K. Koeser, Gitta Hasing, and Drew McLean2 Introduction anti-inflammatory compress (Eggenberger and Eggenberger 2005; Gupta et al. 2006). Plumeria (Plumeria spp. L.) are flowering ornamentals native to the Caribbean, Mexico, Central America, Venezuela, and Colombia. Highly valued for their colorful flowers, plumeria are now grown in tropical and subtropical areas throughout the world. Plumeria, or frangipani, are members of the Apocynaceae family. Unless steps are taken to prevent frost damage, plumeria are generally limited to landscape uses in south Florida and protected regions of central Florida. Plumeria range in size from shrubs (dwarf varieties) to me- dium trees up to 40 feet (13 meters) in height (Eggenberger and Eggenberger 2005). Plumeria can be used well as accent plants. Most species of plumeria are briefly deciduous in the winter months; however, Plumeria obtusa and its varieties (e.g. ‘Singapore White’) are predominantly evergreen Figure 1. The underside of leaves from two different varieties, note the (Eggenberger and Eggenberger 2005).
