Ten different events, some of which are over two days (over Avon bulbs what are only four weekends in February) in four different countries which will test our organisation! If you are going to any of these events do remember that contacts we can bring orders for snowdrops, made in advance with us, to collect there.

That decision Tel: did not prove catastrophic and we managed to provide better displays and do 01460 242177 more business at the other flower shows as a result, consequently we have not applied to exhibit at Chelsea in 2019 either.

One cannot however avoid wondering what effect the current political upheaval Burnt House Farm will have on us and life in general. We rely very little on other suppliers for what Mid Lambrook we list in this catalogue. All the special snowdrops and the majority of the bulbs South Petherton are grown here so all the usual determinants such as supply, transit times, Somerset phytosanitary certificates, CITES documentation and exchange rates are still all TA13 5HE known factors. My next catalogue, written and priced up post Brexit when many of these will still be unknown concerns me much more.

  • Guide to the Flora of the Carolinas, Virginia, and Georgia, Working Draft of 17 March 2004 -- LILIACEAE
    Guide to the Flora of the Carolinas, Virginia, and Georgia, Working Draft of 17 March 2004 -- LILIACEAE LILIACEAE de Jussieu 1789 (Lily Family) (also see AGAVACEAE, ALLIACEAE, ALSTROEMERIACEAE, AMARYLLIDACEAE, ASPARAGACEAE, COLCHICACEAE, HEMEROCALLIDACEAE, HOSTACEAE, HYACINTHACEAE, HYPOXIDACEAE, MELANTHIACEAE, NARTHECIACEAE, RUSCACEAE, SMILACACEAE, THEMIDACEAE, TOFIELDIACEAE) As here interpreted narrowly, the Liliaceae constitutes about 11 genera and 550 species, of the Northern Hemisphere. There has been much recent investigation and re-interpretation of evidence regarding the upper-level taxonomy of the Liliales, with strong suggestions that the broad Liliaceae recognized by Cronquist (1981) is artificial and polyphyletic. Cronquist (1993) himself concurs, at least to a degree: "we still await a comprehensive reorganization of the lilies into several families more comparable to other recognized families of angiosperms." Dahlgren & Clifford (1982) and Dahlgren, Clifford, & Yeo (1985) synthesized an early phase in the modern revolution of monocot taxonomy. Since then, additional research, especially molecular (Duvall et al. 1993, Chase et al. 1993, Bogler & Simpson 1995, and many others), has strongly validated the general lines (and many details) of Dahlgren's arrangement. The most recent synthesis (Kubitzki 1998a) is followed as the basis for familial and generic taxonomy of the lilies and their relatives (see summary below). References: Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (1998, 2003); Tamura in Kubitzki (1998a). Our “liliaceous” genera (members of orders placed in the Lilianae) are therefore divided as shown below, largely following Kubitzki (1998a) and some more recent molecular analyses. ALISMATALES TOFIELDIACEAE: Pleea, Tofieldia. LILIALES ALSTROEMERIACEAE: Alstroemeria COLCHICACEAE: Colchicum, Uvularia. LILIACEAE: Clintonia, Erythronium, Lilium, Medeola, Prosartes, Streptopus, Tricyrtis, Tulipa. MELANTHIACEAE: Amianthium, Anticlea, Chamaelirium, Helonias, Melanthium, Schoenocaulon, Stenanthium, Veratrum, Toxicoscordion, Trillium, Xerophyllum, Zigadenus.

  • Georgia Kamari Fritillaria Species
    Georgia Kamari Fritillaria species (Liliaceae) with yellow or yellowish-green flowers in Greece Abstract Kamari, G.: Fritillaria species (Liliaceae) with yellow or yellowish-green flowers in Greece. - Bocconea 5: 221-238. 1996. - ISSN 1 120-4060. There are 7 yellow- or yellowish-green-flowered Fritillaria species in Greeee, 4 of which are endemie. F. conica and F. euboeica, endemie to mainland Greeee and Evvia, are distinct by their 3-fid styles. F. rhodia is restricted to the island of Rodos. F. pelinaea, here described as a new species from Mt Pelineo on the island of Hios, was previously confused with F. carica and F. bithynica, found both on the East Aegean islands and in Asia Minor. The presence on the island of Samos of F. forbesii is reported, which is a new record for Greece. The main morpho­ logical features of the seven species are described and compared with those of related speeies. The karyotypes of F. rhodia and F. pelinaea are presented for the first time, that of F. bithynica was studied on a newly discovered population. Some differences in karyotype morphology are reported, especially in the marker and SA T chromosomes. The oceurrence of yellowish-green variants in normally purplish-flowercd Fritillaria species is discussed. Introduction The yellow or green colour exists in the fIowers of most Fritillaria species as tessella­ tions or fascia, or on the inner side of the tepals. Old World Fritillaria species with purely yeIIow or yeIIowish-green fIowers (outside and within) are so far known from Iran (3 out of 15 species), Turkey (8 out of 30 species), and Greece (7 out of 23 species).

  • Towards a Molecular Understanding of the Biosynthesis of Amaryllidaceae Alkaloids in Support of Their Expanding Medical Use
    Int. J. Mol.

Takos and Fred Rook * Plant Biochemistry Laboratory, Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences, University of Copenhagen, Thorvaldsensvej 40, 1871 Frederiksberg, Denmark; E-Mail: [email protected] * Author to whom correspondence should be addressed; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +45-3533-3343; Fax: +45-3533-3300. Received: 28 April 2013; in revised form: 26 May 2013 / Accepted: 27 May 2013 / Published: 31 May 2013 Abstract: The alkaloids characteristically produced by the subfamily Amaryllidoideae of the Amaryllidaceae, bulbous plant species that include well know genera such as Narcissus (daffodils) and Galanthus (snowdrops), are a source of new pharmaceutical compounds. Presently, only the Amaryllidaceae alkaloid galanthamine, an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor used to treat symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease, is produced commercially as a drug from cultivated plants. However, several Amaryllidaceae alkaloids have shown great promise as anti-cancer drugs, but their further clinical development is restricted by their limited commercial availability. Amaryllidaceae species have a long history of cultivation and breeding as ornamental bulbs, and phytochemical research has focussed on the diversity in alkaloid content and composition. In contrast to the available pharmacological and phytochemical data, ecological, physiological and molecular aspects of the Amaryllidaceae and their alkaloids are much less explored and the identity of the alkaloid biosynthetic genes is presently unknown. An improved molecular understanding of Amaryllidaceae alkaloid biosynthesis would greatly benefit the rational design of breeding programs to produce cultivars optimised for the production of pharmaceutical compounds and enable biotechnology based approaches.

  • Sırrı Yüzbaşıoğlu Morphological Variations of Galanthus Elwesii In
    Sırrı Yüzbaşıoğlu Morphological variations of Galanthus elwesii in Turkey and difficulties on identification Abstract Yüzbaşıoğlu, S.: Morphological variations of Galanthus elwesii in Turkey and difficulties on identification. — Bocconea 24: 335-339. 2012. — ISSN 1120-4060. Galanthus L. belongs to the Amaryllidaceae family, consists of 19 species (22 taxa) and it is represented by 12 species (14 taxa) and one hybrid in Turkey. G. elwesii has a wide natural dis- trubution and can be found in Bulgaria, northeastern Greece, the eastern Aegean Islands, south- ern Ukraine and Turkey. Within Turkey, this species has the widest distrubution among others and naturally grow in northwestern, western and southern Anatolia: Edirne, Adapazarı, Bolu, Yozgat, Ankara, Eskişehir, Afyon, İzmir, Isparta, Konya, Karaman, Niğde and Antalya provinces. In this study, morphological features of G. elwesii has been investigated. Leaf and flower morphology were studied on live material, both in the field and in cultivation, and herbarium specimens. Introduction Snowdrops, the genus Galanthus (Amaryllidaceae), are one of the most instantly recog- nizable groups of plants. Emerging and blooming at a season when few other flowers are vis- ible. Linnaeus (1735) gave snowdrops their scientific name, calling them Galanthus, from the Greek “gala” meaning milk, and “anthos”, flower. In Species Plantarum (1753) Linnaeus described the first species, G. nivalis, the most familiar and widespread snowdrop in Europe. Galanthus L. is a genus of bulbous, petaloid monocotyledons, confined to habitats of Europe, Asia Minor, and Near East (Davis 1999) and is most closely related to Leucojum (snowflakes). The genus includes 19 species along with a number of subspecies, varieties, and hybrids (Bishop & al.
