Flowers of over 2" are light pink flowers and rather open with an intoxicating perfume. Enjoys frequent summer moisture and dappled shade in all but coastal areas. A very good container plant. Has frozen to the ground and recovered twice in our Portland garden at temperatures around 20F, so we say, frost hardy in USDA zone 9a and above. $15.00 Caprifoliaceae Abelia x grandiflora 'Little Richard' Small and fast-growing Abelia, from a hybrid cross between A. chinensis and A. uniflora, reaching only 3 ft x 3 ft with dense, evergreen foliage that shows bronze highlights in winter. Useful in the landscape and suitable for a hedge. Flowers, small and white, begin in May and continue sporadically throughout the season. Sun to part shade with average summer water. Easily frost hardy in USDA zone 6, resprouting in upper zone 5. $12.00 Caprifoliaceae Abutilon 'Armando' flowering maple Flowering maple with the deepest of orange flowers blooming bloom from spring to late fall. Best in partial shade with ample summer moisture. Reaches 5 ft in maturity. Mulch the base in fall or provide overhead protection to ensure winter survival where temperatures drop to 18-20F, upper USDA zone 8. Good container plant. $9.00 Malvaceae Abutilon 'Dennis' flowering maple Found as a seedling in the late 70s at Western Hills Nursery in northern California, this vigorous 6-8 ft shrub with slightly felty, maple-shaped leaves has creamy yellow flowers quickly aging peach with nearly maroon centers. For us, flowers year round most years; once frosted to the ground at 14F. Frost hardy to 10F, USDA zone 8, or so with mulch. Otherwise care as for other Abutilons in dappled shade to shade with regular water and some fertilizer. $9.00 Malvaceae Abutilon 'Furious Yellow' flowering maple Named by our own Maureen Caviness, this Cistus Nursery hybrid produces bright, "Big Bird" yellow flowers on black stems on a fairly compact plant to 4-5 ft. Likes partial shade, ample moisture, and good drainage. Great container plant, or mulch in fall to ensure winter survival. Frost hardy in upper USDA zone 8. $9.00 Malvaceae Abutilon 'Halo' flowering maple An old hybrid from A. megapotamicum, arching 4-5 ft with narrow, pointed and flared petals of warm yellow to peach depending on temperature. A lover of consistent moisture and fertile soil, it makes a fine garden addition in dappled shade to shade. Protect with mulch and overhead protection where temperatures drop 12 to 15F, mid USDA zone 8. Makes a fine pot plant. $9.00 Malvaceae Abutilon ‘Louis Sasson’ flowering maple Smallish, deep red-orange, flowers clasped by a black calyx hang from black stems over a long blooming season. Parker’s favorite abutilon and very nice! Plant in a protected spot and out of afternoon blasty sun. Provide summer water and nutrients along with mulch or over head protection where temperatures drop to 18 to 20F, upper USDA zone 8. $9.00 Malvaceae Abutilon megapotamicum flowering maple Small flowers with red calyx and yellow petals adorn this shrub in abundance for much of the year. Tall and viny, this native Brazilian reaches 3 ft or so in the garden on delicate stems. Evergreen for most of the year. Does well with regular water and a bit of protection from hot sun. Very frost hardy in the ground to USDA zone 7b. $9.00 Malvaceae Abutilon megapotamicum ‘Ines’ flowering maple Pale yellow flowers, nearly white, flared upwards and backed by a dark red calyx are striking and abundant from spring through first frost. This new flowering maple is a fast-growing, medium shrub, 5 ft tall x 5 ft wide, with slightly fuzzy leaves. Best with protection from hot afternoon sun as well as consistent water and nutrients. Mulch and overhead protection provide extra winter frost hardiness in USDA zone 8. $9.00 Malvaceae Fall 2009 Mail Order Catalog (* = new to mail order list) 3 * Abutilon megapotamicum ‘Lemon’ flowering maple Vining shrub, to 8 ft or so, with light yellow flowers all summer at least, and year round if not interrupted by a cold snap. Blooms on new wood, blooms its heart out. For sun to part shade with regular summer water and fertilizer. May go deciduous in a cold winter where temperatures fall into the upper teens F or below. Mulch and overhead protection adds to winter frost hardiness in USDA zone 8. $9.00 Malvaceae Abutilon megapotamicum ‘Lime’ flowering maple Yellow buds open to pale yellow flowers that fade to white against blushed sepals. To 8 ft of so, with dark stems and many, many flowers during the season, almost year round unless cold calls a temporary halt.

Frost hardy in upper USDA zone 8. $11.00 Malvaceae Abutilon megapotamicum ‘Marathon’ flowering maple Flowering shrub for sun to part shade with regular summer water and fertlizer. Blooms on new wood, and blooms its heart out. May go deciduous in a cold winter where temperatures fall into the 20sF of below. Mulch and overhead protection adds to winter frost hardiness in USDA zone 8. $9.00 Malvaceae Abutilon megapotamicum ‘Sunset’ flowering maple This form has the species’ lovely combination of red and yellow flowers; actually yellow flowers with a red calyx. Like all of the “megapotamicums”, a wiry plant that likes to grow up through other shrubs, to 4 ft or more. Sun to part shade with average moisture and fertilizer. Nice when sprawling in a hanging basket. Frost hardy in USDA zone 8. $9.00 Malvaceae Abutilon megapotamicum ‘Variegatum’ flowering maple Probably the toughest abutilon around. Lends itself well to basket culture, but very hardy in the ground. Somewhat low growing and spreading with small red-calyx and bright yellow petals dangling for the hummingbirds to visit. Green leaves splashed with yellow add interest and contrast. Provide good drainage and regular water and protect from hottest afternoon sun. Frost hardy in USDA zone 8. $9.00 Malvaceae Abutilon ‘Red Tiger’ flowering maple Deep orange and red-veined, yellow bells have a gold band around the outer petals! and adorn this flowering maple from late spring to fall and beyond where temperatures permit. Best with part sun as well as regular moisture and fertilizer. Frost hardy to 18F, upper USDA zone 8, resprouting from below in a protected spot with mulch. $12.00 Malvaceae Abutilon ‘Savitzii’ flowering maple One of the few Abutilons we sell that is not in the least bit hardy. Grown since the 1800s for its wild variegation -- large pale, almost white leaves with occasional green blotches -- and long, salmon-orange, peduncled flowers. To 4-6 ft tall. Frost hardy to 25 F, mid USDA zone 9. Where temperatures drop lower, best in a container or take cuttings to overwinter. Well worth the trouble! $9.00 Malvaceae Abutilon 'Shari' flowering maple Flared flowers are creamy tangerine on this seedling from our friend of the same name (she is less flared.) To 5 ft or so, less of course with pruning, with a long season of abundant, slightly pendulous flowers. Dappled shade to morning sun with consistent moisture and nutrients. Frost hardy in USDA zone 9.

    Appendix Color Plates of Solanales Species The first half of the color plates (Plates 1–8) shows a selection of phytochemically prominent solanaceous species, the second half (Plates 9–16) a selection of convol- vulaceous counterparts. The scientific name of the species in bold (for authorities see text and tables) may be followed (in brackets) by a frequently used though invalid synonym and/or a common name if existent. The next information refers to the habitus, origin/natural distribution, and – if applicable – cultivation. If more than one photograph is shown for a certain species there will be explanations for each of them. Finally, section numbers of the phytochemical Chapters 3–8 are given, where the respective species are discussed. The individually combined occurrence of sec- ondary metabolites from different structural classes characterizes every species. However, it has to be remembered that a small number of citations does not neces- sarily indicate a poorer secondary metabolism in a respective species compared with others; this may just be due to less studies being carried out.

Résumé : Les études de phylogénie moléculaire sur les Lépidoptères Rhopalocères et Zygènes sont de plus en plus nombreuses ces dernières années modifiant la systématique et la taxinomie de ces deux groupes. Une mise à jour complète est réalisée dans ce travail. Un cadre décisionnel a été élaboré pour les niveaux spécifiques et infra-spécifique avec une approche intégrative de la taxinomie. Ce cadre intégre notamment un aspect biogéographique en tenant compte des zones-refuges potentielles pour les espèces au cours du dernier maximum glaciaire. Cette démarche permet d’avoir une approche homogène pour le classement des taxa aux niveaux spécifiques et infra-spécifiques. Les conséquences pour l’acquisition des données dans le cadre d’un inventaire national sont développées. Summary : Studies on molecular phylogenies of Butterflies and Burnets have been increasingly frequent in the recent years, changing the systematics and taxonomy of these two groups.

    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.

The tested plants (leaves and flowers) were extracted with ethanol, the activities were screened against three Gram-positive (Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus subtilis and staphylococcus aureus), three Gram-negative bacteria (Salmonella enteric, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli), and two pathogenic fungi (Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger). The efficacy of these extracts was tested against those microorganisms through a disc-diffusion method employing 15 휇L of each sample per paper discs (6 mm in diameter). Comparable results were carried out using Gentamicin and Amphotericin as standard antibiotics. Ethanol extracts of different parts of plant exhibited good activity against all microorganisms tested.

John Sandham, Collections Development Officer (see site visit report 28 Sept 06_Barratt) organised a garden duty officer, Enzo Vidoni, to guide the visit by Laura Fagan. Figure 1. Main entrance to Adelaide Botanic Figure 2. Wollemia Garden off Botanic Road. nobilis The Adelaide Botanic Garden is an historic garden on the Adelaide Plains with a dry Mediterranean climate and alkaline soils. The original 16 hectare (41 acre) garden was first opened to the public in 1857. Acquired by the Adelaide Botanic Garden in 1866, the adjacent Botanic Park is a glorious 34 hectare green oasis within easy walking distance of the Adelaide CBD. It is flanked on the Botanic Garden side by a stately avenue of Plane trees which were planted in 1874, and on the northern side by the River Torrens and the Adelaide Zoo. Century old Moreton Bay Fig trees from Queensland with their huge trunks and gnarled buttress roots add to the special quality of Botanic Park. The garden contains the oldest Australian forest tree species in the country including a single specimen of Wollemia nobilis and the largest Plain tree. Native and exotic plant collections are displayed including palms, cycads, bromeliads and many spectacular mature trees and shrubs. Rainforest species are grown in the temperate Australian forest and the Bicentennial Conservatory for tropical plants.
  • The British Forms of Tuberaria Guttata (L.) Fourreau

    The British Forms of Tuberaria Guttata (L.) Fourreau

    THE BRITISH FORMS OF TUBERARIA GUTTATA (L.) FOURREAU By M. C. F. PROCTOR Department of Botany, University of Exeter ABSTRACT An account is given of the variation in British Tuberaria guttata, and of its previous taxonomic treat­ ment: the taxonomic value of various characters is examined. Most of the Welsh and Irish plants includ­ ing the type population of Helianthemum breweri Planch. differ from T. guttata as it occurs in the Channel Isles and northern France in their shorter stature, the more common presence of bracts and other characters. All the characters said to distinguish breweri intergrade continuously with those of typical guttata in both herbarium and cultivated material, and are only loosely correlated. The more compact Welsh and Irish plants appear to be comparable with plants in similar exposed coastal habitats in north-west France. It is concluded that T. guttata shows ecotypic differentiation in relation to exposure on the Atlantic coast of Europe, and that the populations combining short diffuse habit and numerous bracts may be of polytopic origin. It is suggested that they should not be given formal taxonomic recognition. 1. INTRODUCTION Like a number of other widespread Mediterranean species, Tuberaria guttata extends northwards up the west coast of Europe to a northern limit in the British Isles. Up to the north coast of France its distribution is more or less continuous, and the Channel Islands lie on the northern fringe of this essentially continuous area. But north of the English Channel its range is disjunct, and it occurs only in widely separated colonies on the coasts of north Wales and western Ireland.

In Portugal there are several remarkable botanic gardens and parks. The aim of this communi­ cation is to present some of the taxonomic studies don e by the authors in "Jardim-Museu Agricola Tropical" (Tropical Agricultural Museum-Garden), "Tapada da Ajuda" (Royal Park of Ajuda), "Parque da Pena" (Pena Park) and "Estufa Fria de Lisboa" (Cold Greenhouse of Lisbon). These spaces are located in Lisbon, except the Pena Park that is located in Sintra, near Lisbon. Ali these places have historical value. Plant collections of Mediterranean Region are kept in the above mentioned spaces. Species and the infraspecific taxa are indicated, as well their wild, some of their uses and their location in the mentioned areas. These Botanic Gardens and Parks are privileged spaces for the preservation of biodiversity ex sifu and in situo The potentiality to conserve species from several regions of the world, namely from the Mediterranean Region, makes these green spaces very important for research, as well as for didactic and educational programmes. Introduction In Portugal there are several botanic gardens and parks. This paper only concerns some Mediterranean species which grow in: "Jardim-Museu Agricola Tropical", "Tapada da Ajuda" and "Estufa Fria de Lisboa", these in Lisbon, and "Parque da Pena", in Sintra. Ali these spaces have historical value, and severa I research projects, inc\uding the phytotaxo­ nomic study of the above mentioned green areas, have been developed by the authors (Caixinhas 1994; Liberato 1994; Liberato & al.
