    PART II PERSONAL PAPERS AND ORGANIZATIONAL RECORDS Allen, Paul Hamilton, 1911-1963 Collection 1 RG 4/1/5/15 Photographs, 1937-1959 (1.0 linear feet) Paul Allen was a botanist and plantsman of the American tropics. He was student assistant to C. W. Dodge, the Garden's mycologist, and collector for the Missouri Botanical Garden expedition to Panama in 1934. As manager of the Garden's tropical research station in Balboa, Panama, from 1936 to 1939, he actively col- lected plants for the Flora of Panama. He was the representative of the Garden in Central America, 1940-43, and was recruited after the War to write treatments for the Flora of Panama. The photos consist of 1125 negatives and contact prints of plant taxa, including habitat photos, herbarium specimens, and close-ups arranged in alphabetical order by genus and species. A handwritten inventory by the donor in the collection file lists each item including 19 rolls of film of plant communities in El Salvador, Costa Rica, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Panama. The collection contains 203 color slides of plants in Panama, other parts of Central America, and North Borneo. Also included are black and white snapshots of Panama, 1937-1944, and specimen photos presented to the Garden's herbarium. Allen's field books and other papers that may give further identification are housed at the Hunt Institute of Botanical Documentation. Copies of certain field notebooks and specimen books are in the herbarium curator correspondence of Robert Woodson, (Collection 1, RG 4/1/1/3). Gift, 1983-1990. ARRANGEMENT: 1) Photographs of Central American plants, no date; 2) Slides, 1947-1959; 3) Black and White photos, 1937-44.

  • Shanghai, China Overview Introduction
    Shanghai, China Overview Introduction The name Shanghai still conjures images of romance, mystery and adventure, but for decades it was an austere backwater. After the success of Mao Zedong's communist revolution in 1949, the authorities clamped down hard on Shanghai, castigating China's second city for its prewar status as a playground of gangsters and colonial adventurers. And so it was. In its heyday, the 1920s and '30s, cosmopolitan Shanghai was a dynamic melting pot for people, ideas and money from all over the planet. Business boomed, fortunes were made, and everything seemed possible. It was a time of breakneck industrial progress, swaggering confidence and smoky jazz venues. Thanks to economic reforms implemented in the 1980s by Deng Xiaoping, Shanghai's commercial potential has reemerged and is flourishing again. Stand today on the historic Bund and look across the Huangpu River. The soaring 1,614-ft/492-m Shanghai World Financial Center tower looms over the ambitious skyline of the Pudong financial district. Alongside it are other key landmarks: the glittering, 88- story Jinmao Building; the rocket-shaped Oriental Pearl TV Tower; and the Shanghai Stock Exchange. The 128-story Shanghai Tower is the tallest building in China (and, after the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the second-tallest in the world). Glass-and-steel skyscrapers reach for the clouds, Mercedes sedans cruise the neon-lit streets, luxury- brand boutiques stock all the stylish trappings available in New York, and the restaurant, bar and clubbing scene pulsates with an energy all its own. Perhaps more than any other city in Asia, Shanghai has the confidence and sheer determination to forge a glittering future as one of the world's most important commercial centers.

    ENJOYING BONSAI and HORTICULTURE PAGE 1 / 4 Practical Travel Guide - 812 ENJOYING BONSAI and HORTICULTURE What is BONSAI ? Bonsai is one of Japan’s most traditional cultural arts originating in the Kamakura Period (12th century). With trees, flowers, grass and stones in a small pot or tray, it expresses the beauty and spaciousness of a natural land- scape. Its object is to create these landscapes as beautifully as nature, and sometimes using wire or by cutting branches so that any kind of plant can grow healthy in pots. Accordingly, Bonsai is said to be a “Never-completed Art” enabling one to pursue the pleasure of everlasting nurturing.

Rochester, NY 14445 2021 Words From the President Greetings BSOP, I hope everyone is enjoying the snow and winter weather that this month has brought us - I personally love seeing snow fall in the bonsai garden. While the pandemic has halted our in-person gatherings, I hope you have and plan to take advantage of our digital program- ming. We're offering two Zoom presentations each month until the pandemic passes, with no summer break. This month I'll be giving a program on deciduous nebari techniques, and later Ryan Neil will be giving a BSOP sponsored public stream on February 23rd, and will be giving a private BSOP members-only Repotting Q&A session on February 24th. We have some of the biggest names in bonsai presenting to our club this year on Zoom, so please tune in and catch a program. In spite of this winter weather, it's time to start thinking about repotting season, if you haven't already! Make sure you protect repotted bonsai from freezing temperatures and wind. Bonsai undergoing a drastic repot might even appreciate a heat pad. For aftercare, typically 3-4 weeks in the greenhouse after repotting is a good guideline, but keep an eye on the weather.

  • {PDF} Understanding Bonsai
    UNDERSTANDING BONSAI PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Pieter Loubser | 286 pages | 11 Jan 2006 | Createspace | 9781412058957 | English | none A Beginner's Guide to Bonsai Trees - Arborist Now It's wonderful to gather together. In Japan bonsai has an ancient history borne of nature. Bonsai is enlightenment and brings peace. It is well known and appreciated. It's the duty of all of us that love bonsai to keep alive this "torch of peace. In doing so, they learn from nature and learn a philosophy of life. Even a person who doesn't understand bonsai can appreciate and be moved by its beauty. The power of bonsai is in its ability to portray the utmost beauty of nature. This is the goal for all who grow bonsai. There are three important things to consider:. First, the roots. When looking at an old tree, the roots form the foundation and gives strength. This is impressive and inspiring. Strong roots of large tree protect other smaller trees in a flood or a storm. These firmly rooted trees give us a feeling of stability and security. In the case of a bonsai, this should also be true. Second, the trunk and the way it's formed. In the case of a solitary tree, its especially important as to how the trunk emerges from the roots and the rising taper that it develops. After many years the aged characteristics and bark appear and you can sense the added character and personality of each tree. Third, the branches. These face the sky and are balanced and must have sunlight to flourish.

  • Ikebana ---Japanese Art of Flower Arrangement
    November, 2015 Vol. 64 IKEBANA ------------- JAPANESE ART OF FLOWER ARRANGEMENT Ikebana is the Japanese art of flower arrangement. It is more than simply putting flowers in a container. It is a disciplined art form in which the arrangement is a living thing where nature and humanity are brought together. It is steeped in the philosophy of developing a closeness with nature.

Page-11 Ikebana Special HISTORY OF IKEBANA The term Ikebana means giving life to flowers and it is a traditional Japanese art of beautiful floral arrangement. The Japanese started offering flowers to the dead, particularly to Buddha around sixth century when Zen Buddhism was introduced in the country. Initially, monks used to arrange flowers in order to decorate the altars of temples. Later, in the Heian Period (794-1192), floral arrangement became a popular trend in all segments of the Japanese society; however, the commoners adopted the trend as a fashion which was independent of their earlier religious believes. Japanese lifestyle and fashion saw large scale changes during Kamakura period (1192-1233) and people started adopting newer and unique styles of floral decoration.

    Agriboard Agriboard, lumber substitutes made from plant fibers, are revolutionizing how plant wastes are used and has potential for far ranging impact on agriculture, forestry and conservation. Typing agriboard into a search engine brings up nearly 100 web pages. Three of these pages have been reviewed and are offered here for your examination. The first is an in-depth report from Environmental Building News, Vol. 4 (No. 3) and offers an excellent, balanced overview on the use of wheat straw lumber in homebuilding. The second article reviewed by EBL, Environmental Building News, Vol. 4 (No. 6), is a brief commentary on this topic including reaction to use of this material by an architect. Third is an excerpt written by David Morris, from the book, 'Non-woody Fibers and the Future of Rural Economics," edited by J. Janick., discussing general use of plant fibers for building materials. This last entry is of particular interest as it discusses cellulose for construction, from non-timber sources, in a broad sense. That opens the door to using native prairie grasses and other native plant resources to provide income from restored land . This is especially important for land which would otherwise be converted to cash crops and for areas which have lain fallow for several years but recently lost set aside status. It has also been pointed out that most areas loosing set aside status are eligible for organic certification. Production of agriboard fiber has potential to stand alone or easily dovetail with organic agriculture to aid conservation.
