(is is longer than I’ve lived in any given house or worked for any employer. I attribute this longevity to the lack of deadlines and time clocks and the almost total freedom to create a journal that is a showcase for our state and society. (ose fourteen issues contained 60 articles, 50 book reviews, and 25 tributes to Fellows, for a total of 536 pages. I estimate about 350,000 words, an accumulation that records the stories of Oregon’s botanists, native )ora, and plant communities. No one knows how many hours, but who counts the hours for time spent doing what one enjoys? All in all, this editing gig has been quite an education for me. I can’t think of a more e*ective and enjoyable way to make new friends and learn about Oregon plants and related natural history than to edit the journal of the Native Plant Society of Oregon.

  • Mountain Plants of Northeastern Utah
    MOUNTAIN PLANTS OF NORTHEASTERN UTAH Original booklet and drawings by Berniece A. Andersen and Arthur H. Holmgren Revised May 1996 HG 506 FOREWORD In the original printing, the purpose of this manual was to serve as a guide for students, amateur botanists and anyone interested in the wildflowers of a rather limited geographic area. The intent was to depict and describe over 400 common, conspicuous or beautiful species. In this revision we have tried to maintain the intent and integrity of the original. Scientific names have been updated in accordance with changes in taxonomic thought since the time of the first printing. Some changes have been incorporated in order to make the manual more user-friendly for the beginner. The species are now organized primarily by floral color. We hope that these changes serve to enhance the enjoyment and usefulness of this long-popular manual. We would also like to thank Larry A. Rupp, Extension Horticulture Specialist, for critical review of the draft and for the cover photo. Linda Allen, Assistant Curator, Intermountain Herbarium Donna H.

  • Abies Concolor (White Fir)
    Compiled here is distribution, characteristics and other information on host species featured as ‘Host of the Month’ in past issues of the COMTF Monthly Report. Abies concolor (white fir) This is an evergreen tree native to the mountains of southern Oregon, California, the southern Rocky Mountains, and Baja California. Large and symmetrical, white fir grows 80 – 120ft tall and 15 – 20ft wide in its native range and in the Pacific Northwest. White fir is one of the top timber species found in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of CA and is a popular Christmas tree, as well as one of the most commonly grown native firs in Western gardens. Young trees are conical in shape, but develop a dome-like crown with age. The flattened needles of white fir are silvery blue-green, blunt at the tip , and grow 2 – 3in long. Often curving upwards, the needles extend at right angles from the twig, and twigs produce a citrus smell when needles are broken. White fir is monoecious, producing yellow- to red-toned, catkin-like male flowers and inconspicuous yellow-brown female flowers. The oblong cones grow 3 – 5 in upright, are yellow-green to purple in color, and are deciduous at maturity, dispersing seed in the fall. New twigs are dark- orange, but become gray-green, then gray with maturity. The bark of saplings is thin, smooth, and gray, turning thick, ash-gray with age, and developing deep irregular furrows. P. ramorum- infected Abies concolor (white fir) was first reported in the October 2005 COMTF newsletter as having been found at a Christmas tree farm in the quarantined county of Santa Clara.

  • A Previously Unknown Contribution to the Ethnobotany of Ukraine and Poland Monika Kujawska1*†, Łukasz Łuczaj2† and Joanna Typek3
    Kujawska et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2015) 11:85 DOI 10.1186/s13002-015-0073-8 RESEARCH Open Access Fischer’s Lexicon of Slavic beliefs and customs: a previously unknown contribution to the ethnobotany of Ukraine and Poland Monika Kujawska1*†, Łukasz Łuczaj2† and Joanna Typek3 Abstract Background: Historical ethnobotanical studies are important, even if they are only descriptive, because they help to throw light on the missing chains needed for diachronic analysis. However, the documentation of traditional uses of plants in some countries, e.g. Ukraine, is still fragmentary. The aim of this contribution is to fill the gap and present a portion of the data set, from western Ukraine, which was collected by Adam Fischer, a Polish ethnographer from Lviv, in the 1930s. These data were originally gathered to be published in the first part of the Lexicon of Slavic beliefs and customs, dedicated to plant uses in traditional Slavonic culture. The idea of writing the Lexicon arose in 1929 during the I Congress of Slavic Philologists in Prague and was intended to be a joint international enterprise, but has never actually been fulfilled. Methods: In this article we used information from south-eastern Poland at that time – nowadays western Ukraine, collected in four provinces, 11 counties and 28 localities by Fischer’s collaborators. The majority of the information was accompanied by voucher specimens, which were determined by botanists at the Jan Kazimierz University. These data are still unpublished and stored on filecards in the archives of the Polish Ethnological Society in Wrocław, Poland. In our analysis we applied two indices: one to measure general plant versatility – Use Value, and another regarding medicinal plants – Relative Importance Value.

  • Ukrainian Embroidered PPE in the Time of COVID-19
    Pandemic, but Make It Fashion 27 Pandemic, but Make It Fashion: Ukrainian Embroidered PPE in the Time of COVID-19 Katya Chomitzky University of AlBerta Edmonton, CanaDa Abstract EmBroiDereD panDemic wear has Become one of the newest cultural fashion trenDs to emerge in Ukraine anD within its CanaDian Diaspora. Jis article explores the ways in which emBroidery as a traDitional form of culture retains meaning within moDern contexts, while also serving as a vehicle for experimenting with atypical applications of cultural symbols and representations. roughout the COVID-19 pandemic, cloth masks have been recommended by public health officials, including the World Health Organization, as a preventative measure to limit the spreaD of the virus. On the Basis of Digital fielDwork, I Discuss the meanings anD inspirations behind these emBroiDereD masks, while conDucting a material culture analysis of the oBjects themselves. I argue that, through a suBversion of their common purpose— to hide one’s identity— masks have been used in the pandemic as an open/performative display of culture. I contend that this Display acts as a means to promote traDition through ephemera anD assert cultural importance. Jis, coupled with the personal/private use of embroidery as a protective talisman, has fueled a trenD of emBroidereD personal protective equipment in popular culture. In this article, I examine the purpose, use, and form of these masks in order to bring light to the ways in which cultural traDitions anD objects act (and developed prevalence) as a form of pandemic response. IntroDuction As an integral part of Ukraine’s national cultural history, emBroidery retains a prolific heritage through its use in folklore, traditional costume, and various household and spiritual objects.
