  • The Order of Bloom of Trees and Shrubs at the Arnold Arboretum
    ARNOLD ARBORETUM HARVARD UNIVERSITY ~ BULLETIN OF POPULAR INFORMATION SERIES 4. VOL. VII NOVEMBER 29, tsss NUMBER 11I THE ORDER OF BLOOM OF TREES AND SHRUBS AT THE ARNOLD ARBORETUM order to establish a beautiful planting of tlowermg trees and shrubs,I N one must have a knowledge of those plants which effec- tively bloom together. Although the actual day on wh~ch a certain plant may come into bloom varies from year to year according to the weather, there are some that always bloom together, and it is this information that gardeners should always have available when planning their gardens. In this bulletin a large number of the more ornamental trees and shrubs growing at the Arboretum are listed according to their sequence of bloom. Many varieties have been omitted because of lack of space, but the list is of sufficient length to serve as a basic list to which future additions may be made. Of particular interest could be the addition of notes on the length of bloom of these plants, and in making additions and notes of th~s character the hst should become of increasing Balue. Many have had the opportunity of following the spring from the South into the North. In fact, one could enjoy the beauties of any particular period in the spring a full three months simply by travelling in slow stages from Florida to Nlau~e. The following schedule shows the approximate times the mountain-laurel (Knlmza lat;f’olirr~ blooms at different places in the United States. Though these vary according to the weather during the particular year in question (see Bulletin, No.

Where Rivers Are Born Two GREAT ranges of mountains sweep southwestward through Ten­ nessee, the Carolinas, and Georgia. Centering largely in these mountains in the area where the boundaries of the four States converge are five national forests — the Cherokee, Pisgah, Nantahala, Chattahoochee, and Sumter. The more eastern of the ranges on the slopes of which thesefo rests lie is the Blue Ridge which rises abruptly out of the Piedmont country and forms the divide between waters flowing southeast and south into the Atlantic Ocean and northwest to the Tennessee River en route to the Gulf of Mexico. The southeastern slope of the ridge is cut deeply by the rivers which rush toward the plains, the top is rounded, and the northwestern slopes are gentle. Only a few of its peaks rise as much as a mile above the sea. The western range, roughly paralleling the Blue Ridge and connected to it by transverse ranges, is divided into segments by rivers born high on the slopes between the transverse ranges.

  • Recommended Native Pollinator-Friendly Plant List (Updated April 2021)
    RECOMMENDED NATIVE POLLINATOR-FRIENDLY PLANT LIST (UPDATED APRIL 2021) Asheville GreenWorks is excited to share this updated native pollinator-friendly plant list for Asheville’s Bee City USA program! As the launchpad of the national Bee City USA program in 2012, we are gratified that throughout our community, individuals, organizations, and businesses are doing their part to reverse staggering global pollinator declines. Please check out our Pollinator Habitat Certification program at https://www.ashevillegreenworks.org/pollinator-garden-certification.html and our annual Pollination Celebration! during National Pollinator Week in June at https://www.ashevillegreenworks.org/pollination-celebration.html. WHY LANDSCAPE WITH POLLINATORS IN MIND? Asheville GreenWorks’ Bee City USA program encourages everyone to incorporate as many native plants into their landscapes and avoid insect-killing pesticides as much as possible. Here’s why. Over the millennia, hundreds of thousands of plant and animal pollinator species have perfected their pollination dances. Pollinating animals rely upon the carbohydrate-rich nectar and/or the protein-rich pollen supplied by flowers, and plants rely on pollinators to carry their pollen to other flowers to produce seeds and sustain their species. Nearly 90% of the world’s flowering plant species depend on pollinators to help them reproduce! Plants and pollinators form the foundation for our planet’s rich biodiversity generally. For example, 96% of terrestrial birds feed their young exclusively moth and butterfly caterpillars. ABOUT THIS NATIVE PLANT LIST An elite task force, listed at the end of this document, verified which plants were native to Western North Carolina and agreed this list should focus on plants’ value to pollinators as food--including nectar, pollen, and larval host plants for moth and butterfly caterpillars, as well as nesting habitat for bumble and other bees.

  • JULY 16, 19Is
    NEW SERIES VOL.I NO. 13 ARNOLD ARBORETUM HARVARD UNIVERSITY BULLETIN OF POPULAR INFORMATION JAMAICA PLAIN. MASS. JULY 16, 19iS Cornus Amomum, the Silky Cornel, which has been much used in the Arboretum, has been in flower here for several days. In cultivation it is not a satisfactory plant unless it can be given sufficient room for its wide-spreading branches to extend freely and spread over the ground. When crowded by other plants the branches become erect and it loses its real beauty and value. To be seen at its best this Cornel should have a clear space with a diameter of not less than twenty feet in which to spread. It is well suited for the front of groups of trees and shrubs, and there is no better shrub to plant by the margins of ponds and streams where its long branches can hang gracefully over the water. Its purple stems are attractive in winter, and the bright blue fruits which ripen in the autumn add to the value of this native shrub. In the Cornel Group, at the junction of the Meadow and Bussey Hill Roads, there is a good specimen of this plant, and its value for planting near water can be seen on the borders of the small pond in the rear of the Cornel Group. Cornus asperifolia. This Cornel flowers a week or ten days later than the Silky Cornel. It is a widely distributed plant from western New England to Texas, and under favorable conditions becomes a tree occasionally forty feet high. At the north, however, it is a tall, broad shrub with erect and slightly spreading branches.

There are few maintenance practices that can be more beneficial or more harmful to a residential, commercial or public garden landscape than pruning. Proper pruning helps preserve the vigor and health of shrubs and trees, allowing them to live to their full life expectancy. One important element to remember – we prune shrubs to retain their beauty in flowers and foliage, while we principally prune trees for safety. Proper pruning literally preserves the past while shaping the future of the landscape! Reading (Going beyond these Notes) An Illustrated Guide to Pruning (third edition) – Edward Gilman Published by Delmar Cengage Learning Why we Prune (Reasons for Pruning) 1. Sanitation. Removal of dead, diseased or insect infected wood. If diseased, tools should be dipped in a 10% bleach solution to prevent further contamination. Sanitation also includes the removal of crossing and rubbing branches; the constant abrasion from rubbing maintains an open wound and allows a port of entry for insect and disease.
