Just a few examples include early updates to the Plant Resource Guide, development of the Master Gardener program in Celebration, design and refurbishment of community spaces, and perhaps most familiar to residents – the twice annual pine straw sale which is a key fundraiser for the Garden Club’s annual scholarship program. Most recently the Club completed a major review and update of the Plant Guide which provides the “go to” reference for Celebration property owners when they want to update their landscaping. The Garden Club of Celebration provides an environment where gardeners of all types can thrive – from novices to Master Gardeners. More information on the Club and their monthly programs, which are open to all residents, is available in the Celebration News, on the Front Porch website, or by contacting Town Hall. Thanks also to the University of Florida/IFAS Extension As a complete replacement of the former Plant Resource Guide, the new Plant Guide uses the state-developed Florida-Friendly plant database as the initial plant inventory. Plants which are not appropriate for Central Florida were removed. Other plants were added or removed based on actual experience in Celebration. Information was added for specific plants which may assist residents in making selections which are cost-effective and suitable for the level of maintenance desired. Can’t find a particular plant or don’t know the name? See the companion document Design Guidelines: Landscape – Plant Guide Cross Reference which has all plants listed by “common” name(s).

Pay special attention to specific plant variety names to ensure you purchase the correct plant and plant characteristics you expect. In many species, there may be wide variation in the individual members. For example, the viburnum species has as many as 175 different types of shrubs and trees; some may reach 20’ tall, while others typically grow to be only 3’ tall. Often a traditional nursery (versus a home improvement center) will carry several varieties and have more information on growth habits. When selecting plants, take into account their water requirements – are they tolerant of soggy soil (such as former swampland)? Do they need regular watering (which may not be available during periods of water restrictions)? In addition, your sprinkler system may benefit from updating to have a portion use a drip or emitter system.

Most gardeners think of perennials as herbaceous (as opposed to woody) plants that may or may not die back to the ground in winter. Perennials are often mixed in beds and borders to achieve a more natural look than a formal flowerbed of annuals. Many, especially those that don't die back in winter, are grown in containers.

  • Influence of Abiotic and Biotic Stress on Plant Growth Parameters and Quality of Specialty Crops
    24th International Symposium of the International Scientific Centre of Fertilizers Plant nutrition and fertilizer issues for specialty crops Coimbra (Portugal), September 6-8, 2016 Influence of abiotic and biotic stress on plant growth parameters and quality of specialty crops Elke Bloem1*, Silvia Haneklaus1, Maik Kleinwächter2, Jana Paulsen2, Dirk Selmar2, Ewald Schnug1 1Institute for Crop and Soil Science, Julius Kühn-Institut (JKI), Bundesallee 50, 38116 Braunschweig, Germany, mail*: [email protected] 2Institute for Applied Plant Science, Technical University Braunschweig, Mendelssohnstraße 4, 38106 Braunschweig Plants under stress react with changes in their primary and secondary metabolism which directly can affect quality aspects. Many herbs and spices develop a stronger aroma and taste under Mediterranean in comparison to humid climate. Reasons are most likely moderate drought stress in combination with a higher UV irradiation. In the current research the hypothesis was tested if it is possible to increase valuable plant ingredients by applying controlled stress conditions. Crops from different plant families which contain secondary plant metabolites from different classes were tested. Test crops were thyme (Thymus vulgaris), greater celandine (Chelidonium majus), nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus), parsley (Petroselinum crispum), and St John´s wort (Hypericum perforatum). With these plants the following classes of secondary plant compounds could be investigated in response to stress: essential oils, alkaloids, glucosinolates, polyphenoles, and hypericine. Stress parameters that were applied to the plants in pot experiments were drought, salt stress and the simulation of biotic stress by application of the phytohormones methyljasmonate (MeJA) or salicylate (SA). Both phytohormones are involved in pathogen defense. Plants were harvested at different growth stages and a selection of stress parameter and secondary plant compounds as well as the biomass development was recorded.

  • Americus, Georgia
    July 2004 Rev. 1 Jimmy Carter Plant Materials Center Americus , Georgia WETLAND PLANTS SELECTED for CONSTRUCTED WETLANDS and STORMWATER SYSTEMS Wetland Plants Selected for Constructed Wetlands and Stormwater Systems From the Plant Materials Specialist Notebook This publication provides specific information on wetland plants for stormwater constructed wetlands. It contains recommendations for selection of wetland vegetation for stormwater management systems. The wetland plant technology was developed by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service; the Jimmy Carter Plant Materials Center in Americus, Georgia. The Jimmy Carter Plant Materials Center located in Americus, Georgia, has released `Restorer´ giant bulrush, Scirpus californicus and `Wetlander´ giant cutgrass, Zizaneopsis miliacea as new proven wetland native plant materials for constructed wetlands, and both are available from commercial nurseries. Stormwater wetlands perform by temporarily storing stormwater runoff in shallow pools that create favorable growing conditions for emergent and riparian wetland plants. The stormwater storage, contact area, microtopography, and the emergent plants together form an ideal matrix for the removal of pollutants normally associated with urban development. Emergent wetland vegetation such as, `Restorer´ giant bulrush, Scirpus californicus, Maidencane, Panicum hemitomon and blue flag iris, Iris versicolor, canna lily, canna spp, are quite attractive and provide adequate removal of contaminants. The use of constructed wetlands for stormwater quality control has attracted a great deal of attention. The 1987 amendments to the Clean Water Act focused attention on urban runoff. Stormwater (runoff) is the surface and ground water that results from precipitation. In developed areas, urban stormwater is the major component of sewer and stream flows. Stormwater runoff from parking lots, roofs, contains fertilizer, pesticides, animal waste, oil, grease, heavy metals, and other potential pollutants.

Accepted 15 October, 2013 Twelve genotypes of gerbera (Gerbera jamesonii) were evaluated to determine the genetic variability, heritability, genetic advance, and genetic advance as percent of mean for 13 contributing characters. Significant variations were recorded for the various characters studied. Phenotypic and genotypic coefficients of variation were highest for the number of leaves per plant, number of clumps per plant and leaf area index, indicating presence of sufficient genetic variability for selection in these traits. High heritability and high genetic advance for number of leaves per plant, leaf area index and fresh weight indicated the presence of additive gene effects in these traits and their amicability for direct selection. The non additive gene effects were evident in petal thickness, hollowness of the stalk, fresh weight, flower diameter, stalk diameter and neck diameter thus, warranting use of heterosis breeding for these characters. The selection on the basis of number of leaves per plant, number of clumps per plant and leaf area index will be more effective for further breeding programme. Key words: Gerbera, heritability, variability, genetic advance, phenotypic and genotypic coefficients of variation.

  • Hybrid Fitness, Adaptation and Evolutionary Diversification: Lessons
    Heredity (2012) 108, 159–166 & 2012 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 0018-067X/12 www.nature.com/hdy REVIEW Hybrid fitness, adaptation and evolutionary diversification: lessons learned from Louisiana Irises ML Arnold, ES Ballerini and AN Brothers Estimates of hybrid fitness have been used as either a platform for testing the potential role of natural hybridization in the evolution of species and species complexes or, alternatively, as a rationale for dismissing hybridization events as being of any evolutionary significance. From the time of Darwin’s publication of The Origin, through the neo-Darwinian synthesis, to the present day, the observation of variability in hybrid fitness has remained a challenge for some models of speciation. Yet, Darwin and others have reported the elevated fitness of hybrid genotypes under certain environmental conditions. In modern scientific terminology, this observation reflects the fact that hybrid genotypes can demonstrate genotypeÂenvironment interactions. In the current review, we illustrate the development of one plant species complex, namely the Louisiana Irises, into a ‘model system’ for investigating hybrid fitness and the role of genetic exchange in adaptive evolution and diversification. In particular, we will argue that a multitude of approaches, involving both experimental and natural environments, and incorporating both manipulative analyses and surveys of natural populations, are necessary to adequately test for the evolutionary significance of introgressive hybridization. An appreciation of the variability of hybrid fitness leads to the conclusion that certain genetic signatures reflect adaptive evolution. Furthermore, tests of the frequency of allopatric versus sympatric/parapatric divergence (that is, divergence with ongoing gene flow) support hybrid genotypes as a mechanism of evolutionary diversification in numerous species complexes.

Glucosinolate Survey of Cultivated and Feral Mashua (Tropaeolum tuberosum Ruíz & Pavón) in the Cuzco Region of Peru. Economic Botany xx):xxx–xxx, 2006. Glucosinolates (GSL) present in cultivated and feral accessions of mashua (Tropaeolum tuberosum Ruíz & Pavón) were identified and quan- tified by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) analysis. The main glucosino- lates detected were aromatic: 4–Hydroxybenzyl GSL (OHB, Glucosinalbin), Benzyl GSL (B, Glucotropaeolin), and m–Methoxybenzyl GSL (MOB, Glucolimnathin). The total amount of GSL observed ranged from 0.27 to 50.74 micromols per gram (␮Mol/g) of dried tuber tissue. Most of the low-content GSL accessions are distributed within the cultivated population with a total GSL concentration lower than 5.00 ␮Mol/g of dried tuber tissue. The highest total and specific GSL (OHB, B, and MOB) contents (more than 25.00 ␮Mol/g of dried tuber tissue) were observed in the feral population with few exceptions.

Relatively few cases of abnormalities in Gerbera jamesonii of greenhouse cultivation have received attention in the literature. The cases reported are scattered over a period and no detailed historical study has apparently been made nor listed collectively. Some extra efforts regarding enhancement of yield leads to some physiological disorders. Also, insect attack, edaphic and uncontrolled environmental factors may destroy the quality and vigour of plant exhibiting abnormalities. This Paper describes abnormalities observed in commercial floriculture plots during study period.
