Native Plants for Your Backyard
U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Native Plants for Your Backyard Native plants of the Southeastern United States are more diverse in number and kind than in most other countries, prized for their beauty worldwide. Our native plants are an integral part of a healthy ecosystem, providing the energy that sustains our forests and wildlife, including important pollinators and migratory birds. By “growing native” you can help support native wildlife. This helps sustain the natural connections that have developed between plants and animals over thousands of years. Consider turning your lawn into a native garden. You’ll help the local environment and often use less water and spend less time and money maintaining your yard if the plants are properly planted. The plants listed are appealing to many species of wildlife and will look attractive in your yard. To maximize your success with these plants, match the right plants with the right site conditions (soil, pH, sun, and moisture). Check out the resources on the back of this factsheet for assistance or contact your local extension office for soil testing and more information about these plants.

The Mock-Oranges
ARNOLDIA A continuation of the BULLETIN OF POPULAR INFORMATION of the Arnold Arboretum, Harvard University VOLUME ~Jr JUNE 18, 1965 NUMBER5 THE MOCK-ORANGES are about fifty species and varieties of Philadelphus being grown in THERE-~- the commercial nurseries of the United States, so there is a wealth of ma- terial from which to select ornamental plants. The collection at the Arnold Arboretum contams over one hundred species and varieties. They all have white flowers, their fruits are dried capsules and not very interesting, and the autumn color is not especially outstanding, being yellow or yellowish. In other words, they are chiefly of value during the short period when they are in bloom; but they are all grown easily in almost any normal soil, and are mostly free from injurious insect and disease pests-reason enough why they have proved popular over the years. Some plants in this group have special merit. Philadelphus coronarius, for in- stance, is excellent for planting in dry soil situations. Many of the hybrids have extremely fragrant flowers, and some of the plants, like P. laxus and P. X splen- dens, have branches which face the ground well all around and make fairly good foliage specimens throughout the length of time they retain their leaves. On the other hand, the flowers of many of the species are not fragrant, and some plants, like Philadelphus delavayi and P. X monstrosus reach heights of fifteen feet or more; they are frequently just too tall and vigorous for the small garden. There are better shrubs of this height with mteresting flowers, better autumn color, and fruits in the fall (like some of the viburnums), so, if tall shrubs are desired, it is not the mock-oranges which should have first consideration.

The First Report of Root-Knot Nematode on Cestrum Nocturnum in Ninawa, Iraq
Plant Archives Volume 20 No. 2, 2020 pp. 6778-6780 e-ISSN:2581-6063 (online), ISSN:0972-5210 THE FIRST REPORT OF ROOT-KNOT NEMATODE ON CESTRUM NOCTURNUM IN NINAWA, IRAQ Firas K. Aljuboori1* and Asmaa Mansour Al-Hakeem2 1*Department of Plant Protection, College of Agriculture and Forestry, University of Mosul, Iraq. 2Department of Microbiology, College of Science, Al-Karkh University of Science, Iraq Abstract Night-blooming jasmine Cestrum nocturnum is one of the common ornamental plants in Iraq. It is widely planted in the house gardens, public gardens and nurseries. A survey was carried out during 2019 to assist the host range of Meloidogyne spp. in ornamental plants. Samples were collected from house gardens, public gardens and nurseries in Ninawa governorate - Iraq. The root-knot nematode was identified by the root symptoms and the presence of females and egg mass. Nematode species was identified depending on the adult female perineal pattern. The most common symptoms of the infected plants were stunting, foliage yellowing, lack of vigor and wilt during the hot summer. Nematode infection was indexed depending on the root galling using a 0-5 scale. Root-knot density and severity were estimated according to both natural and artificial infection. House and public gardens have a higher infection percentage than nurseries (10.4, 1.9) while the severity is higher in nurseries (0.142, 0.35). According to the best of the researchers’ knowledge, this is the first report of Meloidogyne javanica on night-blooming jasmine in Iraq. Key words: root-knot nematode, Cestrum nocturnum, Meloidogyne javanica. Introduction ornamental plants and herbs (Ralmi et al., 2016).

E-mail: [email protected] Received: January 22, 2016; Revised received: May 28, 2016; Accepted: August 05, 2016 Abstract: : The aim of this work was to identify metabolic differences and hormonal profiles in jasmine flower (Jasminum sambac) and to investigate the possibility that experimental promotion of retardation of the senescence of jasmine flower may mediated by abscisic acid (ABA) and phenolic content. Determinations of ABA and phenols were made in flower senescing under different conditions using two different packaging materials such as polyethyl- ene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) of 200 gauge micron thickness with no ventilation. Pre-treatment of 4 % boric acid for jasmine flowers was selected. Abscisic acid levels in petals also increased during senescence 91.27 pmol g-1, but much less in boric acid-treated jasmine flower 34.16 pmol g-1. However, the lowest content of total phenolics was measured in buds and partially opened flowers 50.90 µg/g but highest in fully opened 61.80 µg/g on the fourth day of storage, respectively.

Confederate Jasmine, Variegated
Baker County Extension Alicia R. Lamborn Environmental Horticulture Agent 1025 West Macclenny Avenue Macclenny, FL 32063 904‐259‐3520 email: [email protected] http://baker.ifas.ufl.edu Confederate Jasmine Trachelospermum jasminoides ‘Variegatum’ Plant Description: Despite its name, Confederate Jasmine (also known as Star Jasmine for its star‐ shaped flowers) is not a “true” Jasmine or a native to the American south. Instead it comes from China, although it makes a nice addition to Florida landscapes. This evergreen, spreading vine has dark green, glossy leaves and white, fragrant, showy flowers in spring. It can become aggressive; the selection ‘Variegatum’ has green and white variegated leaves that are often tinged with pink, and is known to be a less vigorous grower than the species. Mature Size: Varies; depends on supporting structure Growth Rate: Fast Plant Habit: Spreading groundcover or climbing vine Plant Spacing: 18 – 24 inches Ornamental Characteristics & Uses: Foliage Color: Green or Green/White Variegation Flower Color: White Bloom Time: Spring Attracts Wildlife: Hummingbirds Growing Requirements: Cold Hardiness Zone(s): 7b – 10 Exposure: Full Sun to Partial Shade Water Needs: Moderate Soil Tolerances: Moderately drought tolerant; prefers well‐drained to medium‐drained soils Soil pH: Acidic to Alkaline Maintenance: Easy/Low General Care & Growing Tips: Use this plant as a groundcover or grow on a supporting structure such as a trellis or arbor. Trim to shape and control growth. A few light applications of fertilizer beginning 4 to 6 weeks after planting may be beneficial during the establishment year. Like most plants, a 2‐ to 3‐inch layer of organic mulch is beneficial to retain soil moisture.
