COMPOSITjE. Native of Height. Flowers in Duration. Introduced C.G.Hope 9 inches. July, Sep. Annual. in 1775. No. 1221. The generic name here adopted is founded on the shape of the stigma , which is that of a wedge ; hence the Greek words sphen , a wedge ; and gune , a fe¬ male , form the foundation of the appellation Splic- nogyne. Notwithstanding this annual plant is neither more tender than many now in cultivation , nor is it less showy and interesting , yet it seems to be almost lost to our gardens . Seeds of it are sometimes brought from the Cape, but have not , as far as we know , ob¬ tained a place in the commercial lists of London seedsmen. The showy character of this flower is much as¬ sisted by the interior surface of its petals being of bright yellow, whilst their exterior surface is of deep purple . Whilst in the bud the flower has a nodding position , from which it will be observed the opening one in the engraving is rising . When fully expand¬ ed, the flower becomes erect, but on fading , the head is again found pendent ; and , as the seeds ripen , it once more assumes an erect position , and the mem¬ branous crown of the seed gives to it a second time an almost flower-like effect. 306. So prominent is the evidence in this plant , of design for the proper protection and ripening of its seeds, that the most careless observer cannot but recognise the hand of a superintending Providence over these the minor works of creation , if such they may be called. The apathy with which the mass of mankind pass amongst all the provisions which are wisely made for the protection and continuation of the innumerable species of plants , is very unlikely to permit him to see or examine into their habits, or the inscrutable arrangements ,— we may say the actions of which they are capable, for their perfect preservation . Who amongst us, even if he be fur¬ nished with the most acute philosophy of the schools, —that his physiology penetrate every vessel and cell of the vegetable body, can unfold to us the natural operations of matter , which induce these changes of position , so nicely adapted to the requirements of the plant ! Here we see the stem rising up , and carrying with it the flower in its incipient state, tiled over with the calyx to protect it in its drooping position . The flower advanced to perfection , erects itself, and opens its beauties to the sun , whereby the organs of fructification receive its vivifying powers, and the spirit of life is given to the infant seed. This completed , protection to the tender embryo is given by the head again turning downwards, to ren¬ der the imbricated calyx a defence against rains . The seed being perfected, may thus have been dropt to the earth ; it has, however, beauty in its seed wings, and again the head rises, not alone for display, but that the seeds may the better take flight with the wind , and be carried the farther away. CAMPANULA RAPUNCULOI 'DES. RAMPION -LIKE BELL - FLOWER. Class. Order. PENTANDRIA . MONOOYN1A. Natural Order. CAMPANCLACEJS. Native of Height. Flowers Duration. Inhabits England. 3 feet. June , July. Perennial Woods. No. 1222. Tho readers of the Botanic Garden will recollect the derivation of the word Campanula , which has been several times noticed. The Rampion , or Campanula rapunculus , which our present plant resembles , was formerly much bet¬ ter known in our gardens , than it is at the present day. It was cultivated for its roots, which were used as a salad , with oil, vinegar , and pepper , sometimes boiled, and sometimes as we use Radishes . The root is crisp, has a nutty flavour, and was usually considered to be wholesome. Should any one desire to revive the use of a neglected plant , seed may bo obtained , and should be sown late in May, as early- sown plants run to seed in the autumn . The roots become fit for use through the winter months , com¬ mencing as early as October. The Campanula rapunculoides has not a tap-root, to render it important in the kitchen , like its ally, the Rampion ; but is cultivated as an ornamental plant in the borders , for which it is very suitable. It is perfectly hardy , grows in any common garden soil ; and may be divided for increase , in spring or autumn. AMARYL 'LIS BELLADONNA. BELTADONNA LILY. Class. Order. FIEXANDRIA . MONOCYNM. Natural Order. AMARYLLIDACE j£ « Native of Height. Flowers Habit. Introduced W.Indies. 2 feet. July to Sep. Bulb. in 1712. No. 1223. Amaryllis , the name of a shepherdess in the works of the ancient fabulists , is derived from the Greek amarusso , signifying to be resplendent. Belladonna dailies, according to Miller , were in¬ troduced to this country from Portugal ; and when well established , under favourable circumstances , in the open ground , they produce an effect that cannot be readily forgotten . Their fine bold stems , from two to three feet high , surmounted by umbels of six or eight flowers each, produce an impression on the mind never to be felt in the greenhouse . They have been brought , of late years, in considerable numbers to this country , but still are rarely met with where they ought to be seen in their splendour, — in the open flower garden . It is the want of knowledge in regard to their management , to which their absence from our borders must be attributed ; a matter the more to be regretted , from the little attention they demand , if that attention be judiciously directed. Where these Lilies can be planted on the out¬ side of the front wall of a greenhouse , or similar erection , possessing the advantage of a dry soil pro¬ duced by the warmth of the wall, they seem, after once being planted , to be independent of attention; for we have known them to blossom for years with¬ out disturbance , even in the north of England. To secure similar success, where no greenhouse or protectors are available, it should be remembered that the flowers are produced in autumn , the foliage subsequently in winter , and early part of the spring. The preservation of their foliage, through which the bulbs , and the succeeding crop of flowers, become matured , it will at once be seen, must be of the first importance. Let the bulbs be planted at the foot of a wall, having a south aspect ; and , if the under soil and situation be not altogether of dry quality , it should be drained with a stratum of broken bricks , eighteen inches beneath the surface. An excellent compost to place thereon , is two parts of fresh turfy loam, one of leaf mould , and one of sand . In this , plant the bulbs , about eight inches deep, and three from the wall. When they come into flower, moisten the earth , as long as the flowers continue ; then suffer no rain to fall on the border , till frosts are past. This will somewhat retard the progress of the leaves, and afford a better chance of protecting their growth uninjured , till the mild weather and genial showers of spring , give them luxuriance , and assist them in the healthy formation of their bulbs . During the frosty season, place tan , moss, or straw, on the bor¬ der , and about and over the leaves, so as to give them effectual protection ; and , when the leaves die in summer , keep the earth as dry as possible, till the flower stems again appear . They will abundantly repay the attention. NEMOPH 'ILA MACULA 'TA.

  • Colonial Garden Plants
    COLONIAL GARD~J~ PLANTS I Flowers Before 1700 The following plants are listed according to the names most commonly used during the colonial period. The botanical name follows for accurate identification. The common name was listed first because many of the people using these lists will have access to or be familiar with that name rather than the botanical name. The botanical names are according to Bailey’s Hortus Second and The Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture (3, 4). They are not the botanical names used during the colonial period for many of them have changed drastically. We have been very cautious concerning the interpretation of names to see that accuracy is maintained. By using several references spanning almost two hundred years (1, 3, 32, 35) we were able to interpret accurately the names of certain plants. For example, in the earliest works (32, 35), Lark’s Heel is used for Larkspur, also Delphinium. Then in later works the name Larkspur appears with the former in parenthesis. Similarly, the name "Emanies" appears frequently in the earliest books. Finally, one of them (35) lists the name Anemones as a synonym. Some of the names are amusing: "Issop" for Hyssop, "Pum- pions" for Pumpkins, "Mushmillions" for Muskmellons, "Isquou- terquashes" for Squashes, "Cowslips" for Primroses, "Daffadown dillies" for Daffodils. Other names are confusing. Bachelors Button was the name used for Gomphrena globosa, not for Centaurea cyanis as we use it today. Similarly, in the earliest literature, "Marygold" was used for Calendula. Later we begin to see "Pot Marygold" and "Calen- dula" for Calendula, and "Marygold" is reserved for Marigolds.

  • Rapunzel Is Not Just a Princess in Fairy Tale
    Rapunzel Is Not just a Princess in a Fairy Tale Column ideas sometimes arrive by chance, and from the strangest, offhand comments. Last week, my friend Terri said, “I want to ask you about an herb. I was reading nursery stories, and did you know that Rapunzel was named after an herb? Her mother ate so many of them while she was pregnant that she decided to name her baby daughter after the plant. The herbs were stolen from a witch’s garden, so she placed a curse on the baby.” It had been many years since I read “Rapunzel,” and I didn’t recall the reference to raiding the witch’s garden. I love researching odd stories and occurrences, and an unusual reference to the plant origin of the heroine’s name in a fairy tale piqued my interest. Terri is correct about the origin of Princess Rapunzel’s name. When the Brothers Grimm published “”Rapunzel” in 1812, rapunzel, or Campanula rapunculus, was commonly grown in herb and vegetable gardens. The plant name would have been familiar to readers of that period. Campanula rapunculus is a member of the Campanulaceae or bellflower family, of which there are 500 species. Campanula species are native to North Africa, Europe, and Western Asia. Other common names are bluebell and harebell. The Latin name “Campanula” translates as little bell and “rapunculus” is derived from the Latin word “rapa,” meaning small turnip, in reference to the parsnip or radish-like roots. An English-language common name of C. rapunculus is rampion, not to be confused with ramp or Allium tricoccum, a strongly flavored spring onion, native to the eastern United States and Canada, and the focus of spring festivals in Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, and Tennessee.

The current study analyzed 35 vegetables with a European region of diversity with the effort to map the conservation status in Fennoscandia and beyond. We mapped georeferenced occurrences and current genebank holdings based on global databases and conducted conservation gaps analysis based on representativeness scores in situ and ex situ. Out of the 35 target species, 19 got at a high priority score for further conservation initiatives, while another 14 species got a medium priority score. We identified a pattern where traditional vegetables are poorly represented in genebank holdings. This corresponds well to a lack of attention in the scientific community measured in number of published papers. Considering the grand challenges ahead in terms of climate change, population growth and demand for sustainability, traditional vegetables deserve greater attention. Our contribution is to provide a basis for conservation priorities among the identified vegetables species native to Fennoscandia.

  • Specialized Bees Fail to Develop on Non- Host Pollen: Do Plants Chemically Protect Their Pollen?
    1 SPECIALIZED BEES FAIL TO DEVELOP ON NON- HOST POLLEN: DO PLANTS CHEMICALLY PROTECT THEIR POLLEN? 1 CHRISTOPHE J. PRAZ,ANDREAS MU¨LLER, AND SILVIA DORN ETH Zurich, Institute of Plant Sciences, Applied Entomology, Schmelzbergstrasse 9/LFO, 8092 Zurich, Switzerland Abstract Bees require large amounts of pollen for their own reproduction. While several morphological flower traits are known to have evolved to protect plants against excessive pollen harvesting by bees, little is known on how selection to minimize pollen loss acts on the chemical composition of pollen. In this study, we traced the larval development of four solitary bee species, each specialized on a different pollen source, when reared on non-host pollen by transferring unhatched eggs of one species onto the pollen provisions of another species. Pollen diets of Asteraceae and Ranunculus (Ranunculaceae) proved to be inadequate for all bee species tested except those specialized on these plants. Further, pollen of Sinapis (Brassicaceae) and Echium (Boraginaceae) failed to support larval development in one bee species specialized on Campanula (Campanulaceae). Our results strongly suggest that pollen of these four taxonomic groups possess protective properties that hamper digestion and thus challenge the general view of pollen as an easy-to-use protein source for flower visitors. Keywords Apoidea; Asteraceae; bee–flower relationships; Echium; Megachilidae; oligolectic bees; pollenkit; pollination; Ranunculus; secondary compounds; Sinapis; toxic pollen. INTRODUCTION (i.e., those with stamens coming to maturity before the The great majority of flowering plants rely on insects pistil) for example, female bees restrict their foraging to or other animals for pollination.
