SALT TOLERANT PLANTS Recommended for Pender County Landscapes
North Carolina Cooperative Extension NC STATE UNIVERSITY SALT TOLERANT PLANTS Recommended for Pender County Landscapes Pender County Cooperative Extension Urban Horticulture Leaflet 14 Coastal Challenges Plants growing at the beach are subjected to environmental conditions much different than those planted further inland. Factors such as blowing sand, poor soils, high temperatures, and excessive drainage all influence how well plants perform in coastal landscapes, though the most significant effect on growth is salt spray. Most plants will not tolerate salt accumulating on their foliage, making plant selection for beachfront land- scapes particularly challenging. Salt Spray Salt spray is created when waves break on the beach, throwing tiny droplets of salty water into the air. On-shore breezes blow this salt laden air landward where it comes in contact with plant foliage. The amount of salt spray plants receive varies depending on their proximity to the beachfront, creating different vegetation zones as one gets further away from the beachfront. The most salt-tolerant species surviving in the frontal dune area. As distance away from the ocean increases, the level of salt spray decreases, allowing plants with less salt tolerance to survive. Natural Protection The impact of salt spray on plants can be lessened by physically blocking salt laden winds. This occurs naturally in the maritime forest, where beachfront plants protect landward species by creating a layer of foliage that blocks salt spray. It is easy to see this effect on the ocean side of maritime forest plants, which are “sheared” by salt spray, causing them to grow at a slant away from the oceanfront. -

Atoll Research Bulletin No. 503 the Vascular Plants Of
ATOLL RESEARCH BULLETIN NO. 503 THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF MAJURO ATOLL, REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS BY NANCY VANDER VELDE ISSUED BY NATIONAL MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION WASHINGTON, D.C., U.S.A. AUGUST 2003 Uliga Figure 1. Majuro Atoll THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF MAJURO ATOLL, REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS ABSTRACT Majuro Atoll has been a center of activity for the Marshall Islands since 1944 and is now the major population center and port of entry for the country. Previous to the accompanying study, no thorough documentation has been made of the vascular plants of Majuro Atoll. There were only reports that were either part of much larger discussions on the entire Micronesian region or the Marshall Islands as a whole, and were of a very limited scope. Previous reports by Fosberg, Sachet & Oliver (1979, 1982, 1987) presented only 115 vascular plants on Majuro Atoll. In this study, 563 vascular plants have been recorded on Majuro. INTRODUCTION The accompanying report presents a complete flora of Majuro Atoll, which has never been done before. It includes a listing of all species, notation as to origin (i.e. indigenous, aboriginal introduction, recent introduction), as well as the original range of each. The major synonyms are also listed. For almost all, English common names are presented. Marshallese names are given, where these were found, and spelled according to the current spelling system, aside from limitations in diacritic markings. A brief notation of location is given for many of the species. The entire list of 563 plants is provided to give the people a means of gaining a better understanding of the nature of the plants of Majuro Atoll. -

Lincoln University Campus: a Guide to Some of the Shrubs Currently Growing There”
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Lincoln University Research Archive “Lincoln University campus: a guide to some of the shrubs currently growing there” Roy Edwards Department of Agricultural Science Lincoln University May 2009 The purpose of this book is to illustrate some of the range of shrubs currently grown on the Lincoln University campus. There are also a few trees that were not covered in the 1st book. This should be read in conjunction with its companion - “Lincoln University campus - a guide to some of the trees currently growing there” (April 2008). This also is a first draft and hopefully there will be further editions that will add species to address some of the obvious gaps. ISBN 978-0-86476-213-9 Cover image: Clianthus puniceus (kaka beak) “Lincoln University campus: a guide to some of the shrubs currently growing there” Roy Edwards May 2009 As with the first book “Lincoln University campus – a guide to some of the trees currently growing there” (April 2008) the purpose of this guide is primarily to increase the awareness for those people who are interested in plants of the Lincoln University campus. At this point in time the list is incomplete and it is my intention to hopefully add others at a later date. In this second book I have largely concentrated on shrubs and in some instances have included a few trees that were not covered in the first book. Documenting what is currently growing on the campus provides some sort of historical record and possibly the basis for some thoughts around future planting options. -
Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ Pattern Book: Sample Plant Lists and Designs for Four Florida Regions USDA HARDINESS ZONES 8A and 8B, NORTH FLORIDA
ENH1175 Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ Pattern Book: Sample plant lists and designs for four Florida regions USDA HARDINESS ZONES 8A AND 8B, NORTH FLORIDA Gail Hansen, Kelly Perez, and Esen Momol2 Purpose HE DESIGN AND maintenance of landscapes in residential yards has a significant impact on water T shortages and declining water quality in many counties in Florida. Maintenance of traditional landscape plantings can require a large amount of water, fertilizer, and pesticides, which can be a serious environmental threat to Florida’s water bodies. As part of a broad effort to improve water quality, the following landscape guidelines were developed for USDA Plant Hardiness Zones 8A and 8B in North Florida to guide the design and installation of Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ (FFL) in residential neighborhoods (Figure 1). FIGURE 1. Florida-Friendly landscape By adopting Florida-Friendly principles for residential yards, homeowners can create environmentally sound landscapes that conserve and protect both water and energy. Homeowners with FFL yards enjoy attractive landscapes and wildlife (Figure 2), save time and money, and protect the quality of Florida’s water by reducing pollution in water bodies. How to Use this Document Step 1 – Review the Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ principles and general design principles. Step 2 – Note the activity zones for residential yards and the design intent for each zone. Step 3 – Analyze your yard to determine site conditions in each activity zone. Step 4 – Determine which plant groups are appropriate for FIGURE 2. River birch (Betula nigra) in Vera Lea Rinker Native Plant your site conditions.
