  • APPROVED PLANT LIST Midtown Alliance Tree Well Adoption Program
    APPROVED PLANT LIST Midtown Alliance Tree Well Adoption Program Midtown Alliance launched the Tree Well Adoption program with the primary goal of enriching the experience of Midtown’s workers and residents while encouraging sustainability through the use of low-water, urban tolerant plant species. This list of plants was created to aid individuals and organizations in selecting plant material to plant in their adopted tree wells. This plant list is intended to encourage individual character in the tree wells, rather than restrict creativity in the selection of plants. The plants on the approved list were selected based on the following criteria: • Perennial. All plants listed are perennial, meaning they last for two or more growing seasons. Once established, these plants will require less water to maintain than annuals. • Heat tolerant. Plants in tree wells are exposed to high temperatures caused by vehicles and heat reflected from surrounding buildings, asphalt, and other urban surfaces. They must also be tolerant to high daytime temperatures, typical of Atlanta’s summer months, and cold hardy in the winter months. Atlanta is located in USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 7b/8a. • Water wise. Urban tree wells are surrounded by impervious surfaces and thus, are highly susceptible to periods of drought. Suitable plants must be able to survive periods of low rainfall. • Pollution tolerant. Vehicle exhaust may leave deposits and pollutants on plant foliage, which can kill sensitive plants. • Encourage wildlife. Flowering plants attract insects such as butterflies while others provide food sources for birds and other wildlife. • Grown locally. Many of the plants listed are native to the Atlanta area, and all can be found at local nurseries.

Address for correspondence: Nicolás García, [email protected] DOI https://doi.org/10.1002/tax.12062 Abstract A robust generic classification for Amaryllidaceae has remained elusive mainly due to the lack of unequivocal diagnostic characters, a consequence of highly canalized variation and a deeply reticulated evolutionary history. A consensus classification is pro- posed here, based on recent molecular phylogenetic studies, morphological and cytogenetic variation, and accounting for secondary criteria of classification, such as nomenclatural stability. Using the latest sutribal classification of Hippeastreae (Hippeastrinae and Traubiinae) as a foundation, we propose the recognition of six genera, namely Eremolirion gen. nov., Hippeastrum, Phycella s.l., Rhodolirium s.str., Traubia, and Zephyranthes s.l. A subgeneric classification is suggested for Hippeastrum and Zephyranthes to denote putative subclades.

  • Review of Taxons from Genus Muscari Cultivated in Department of Ornamental Plants in Szczecin
    Review of taxons from genus Muscari cultivated in Department of Ornamental Plants in Szczecin KRZYSZTOF WRAGA*, Monika Placek Department of Ornamental Plants West Pomeranian University of Technology Janosika 8, 71-424 Szczecin, Poland *corresponding author: e-mail: [email protected] S u m m a r y There is a great disarray in the taxonomy of genus Muscari. About 200 taxons are cul- tivated. Many plant names have their synonyms. The most often cultivated taxons are Muscari armeniacum and M. botryoides. Also M. aucheri and M. latifolium have become more popular. It is difficult to find information on growth, development and hardiness of grape hyacinths. In 2008−2009 in the Department of Ornamental Plants in West Pomeranian University of Technology in Szczecin a collection of taxons from genus Muscari was gathered. M. arme- niacum and its cultivars: ‘Blue Spike’, ‘Cantab’, ‘Heavenly Blue’, ‘Atlantic’, ‘Blue Pearl’ and ‘Fantasy Creation’; M. aucheri and its cultivars ‘Blue Magic’, ‘Dark Eyes’, ‘Mount Hood’, ‘Sky Blue’ and ‘White Beauty’; M. azureum; M. botryoides; M. comosum; M. latifolium; M. macro- carpum; M. muscarimi; M. neglectum and M. ‘Valerie Finnis’ were collected and described in this article. Key words: Muscari, taxon, collection INTRODuCTION Grape hyacinths are popular spring blooming bulbs. Most of them originate from the Mediterranean region and from SE Asia. It is difficult to find how many species of genus Muscari are cultivated. Authors describe from 30 to over 60 species, but new taxons have been described for all the time [1-4, www.home- 3.tiscali.nl/~hennessy/Species%20and%20cultivars.htm, www.paghat.com/garden- Review of taxons from genus Muscari cultivated in Department of Ornamental Plants in Szczecin 349 7hyacinths.html].

  • Srgc Bulb Log Diary
    SRGC ----- Bulb Log Diary ----- Pictures and text © Ian Young th BULB LOG 11......................... 13 March 2013 As we expected, after the few mild sunny days, winter has returned. Last week I showed this same view with open flowers enjoying the sunshine and mild conditions now they are blanketed in snow. The snow does create a striking contrast with the deep warm yellow flowers of Crocus herbertii. Galanthus, Crocus and Corydalis are all able to withstand our erratic spring swinging as it does from sunny warm days to freezing snowy days. Despite their delicate look the reticulate Iris flowers are also tough and able to cope with being covered in snow. Galanthus ‘Elizabeth Harrison’ Galanthus ‘Elizabeth Harrison’ holds the record for fetching the highest price ever fetched by a single snowdrop bulb, a record that surely will never be beaten. This crazy price more reflects the desire for people to be among the first to own a new different form than it does the actual value of the plant. However it is a beautiful form with its striking yellow ovary contrasting so well with the green and because of that it stands out as you walk around the garden without the need to bend down and squeeze the flower open to view the interior markings. Last year I got some seeds from our plant which I sowed 5cms deep - now I am delighted to see them starting to germinate with three seed leaves visible so far. Galanthus platyphyllus Galanthus platyphyllus is not so commonly seen in gardens perhaps as it has a reputation of the flowers hiding themselves down in the leaves.
