Small space, spring decoration species in the Crocus type are looking good in the landscape, but are needed in large quantities and several combinations in order to create an attractive space [9], and therefore, the study followed which of the Crocus species are suitable for several types of substrate and offer a large number of flowers. Such species need different temperature the flowering occurs approximately two week before conditions during the annual biological cycle: the rest the Crocus vernus.

Plant bulbs just below the surface in a sunny position in a well drained soil. Alliums may be dug and stored like onions after leaves die down. ALSTROEMERIA Alstroemeria tubers require a moist, well drained soil and should be planted in a sunny or semi-shaded position with mulch added in warm climates to keep the root system cool. The tubers need to be planted as soon as possible after arrival and should never Allium Ampeloprasum be allowed to dry out. Excellent cut flowers which grow to a height of 100 cm. AMARYLLIS Belladonna Lilies Grow these in a moderately fertile, well- drained soil in full sun. Plant bulbs shallow with the neck just below the surface and water moderately during growing season. These need to be protected from severe frost. Keep bulbs dry while dormant in late summer. These bulbs are excellent for naturalising in the garden and require minimal care once established. ANEMONES These are ideal for mass planting. The small bulbs may be soaked in cold water for 24 hours prior to planting 7-10 cm deep in mainly full sun. Easy to grow as a colourful ‘filler’ in any garden. BRODIAE Queen Fabiola Plant 7 cm deep in full sun or partial shade. Easy to grow.

  • William Herbert (1778--1847) Scientist and Polymath, and His Contributions to Curtis's Botanical Magazine
    WILLIAM HERBERT (1778–1847) SCIENTIST AND POLYMATH, AND HIS CONTRIBUTIONS TO CURTIS’S BOTANICAL MAGAZINE Alison Rix ‘Hon. and Rev. W. Herbert, afterwards Dean of Manchester, in the fourth volume of the ‘Horticultural Transactions’, 1822, and in his work on the ‘Amaryllidaceae’ (1837, pp. 19, 339), declares that ‘horticultural experiments have established, beyond the possibility of refutation, that botanical species are only a higher and more permanent class of varieties’. He extends the same view to animals. The Dean believes that single species of each genus were created in an originally highly plastic condition, and that these have produced, chiefly by intercrossing, but likewise by variation, all our existing species’. [Preface to the third edition (1860) of On the Origin of Species,by Charles Darwin] The Hon. and Rev. William Herbert, often known as Dean Herbert, to whom Vol. 65 (1839) of Curtis’s Botanical Magazine was dedicated, was an exceptional polymath – a poet and classical scholar, linguist, reforming MP, clergyman – as well as amateur botanist and botanical artist. His best-known botanical work, illustrated with 48 of his own paintings, was the two volume work Amaryllidaceae, quoted above by Darwin. Although this extraordinary man counted botany as just one of his many interests, his output was prodigious; in addition to studying and breeding plants, such as Crocus, Gladiolus, Hippeastrum, Narcissus and Rhododendron, he also wrote and drew prolifically for journals such as Curtis’s Botanical Magazine and its rival publication, Edwards’s Botanical Register. In addition to Darwin, he corresponded with many other notable people, including Sir William Hooker and William Fox Talbot, and his letters paint a picture of a rather serious and industrious character.

    SRGC ----- Bulb Log Diary ----- Pictures and text © Ian Young BULB LOG 9.........................29th February 2012 Bulb Bed I normally try to get the pictures for the bulb log taken over a weekend and then write the log in time to post it on Wednesday. This is exactly what I did last week but by the time I posted the snowy pictures the weather had completely changed and from Wednesday on we have been basking in some very unseasonal warmth. The bulbs have sprung into action and I cannot remember a year when the garden changed so quickly from a few flowers to being alive with bloom. Weather predictions are that Aberdeen may record the warmest February day since 1897 this Tuesday – we will see. (it came close but fell 0.8 short) Snow Drops The snow drops are all opening their petals and making a wonderful display in the unexpected warmth. Poculiform Galanthus I love the variation that we get when raising any bulbs from seed and I do admit that there are quite a number of notable variations in snowdrops. Different forms are always more numerous when a number of species are brought together in a garden and can interbreed. Above is a form where the inner three petals are longer than the norm – these are called poculiform and can be most beautiful when a good stable form is found. Galanthus It is always pleasing to see any bulb increase and form a clump but I much prefer to see my bulbs spaced out so that they can display their flowers without touching each other.

  • Spring Flowering Bulbs for Kentucky Gardens
    HortFacts 52-04 SPRING FLOWERING BULBS FOR KENTUCKY GARDENS Robert G. Anderson, Extension Specialist in Floriculture Spring flowering bulbs are an important part of the landscape in Kentucky. Crocus and daffodils tell us that spring is on its way and red tulips are a Derby Day tradition. These flowers are recognized by most people but there are many other spring flowering bulbs that can be used around your home. Hundreds of different kinds of flower bulbs are available for fall planting. You may obtain them from mail order bulb companies, garden centers, supermarkets or department stores. Some are familiar and others have long, hard-to-pronounce names. Generally, spring flowering bulbs do very well the first spring after they are planted. Yet, many home gardeners want the bulbs to come back year after year or naturalize in their home landscape. Continuing trials at the UK College of Agriculture's Arboretum and Horticulture Research Farm have focused on the naturalization of spring flowering bulbs. Bulbs planted in various sites and given different types of care have been observed through four spring flowering seasons. The following list of recommended bulbs for Kentucky landscapes is based on these trials. Planting Site Well-drained sites are essential. Established gardens and Wind Flower – ‘Radar’ beds or newly cultivated areas are fine. The soil pH should be 6.0 to 7.0. Bulbs will not do well in heavy clay soils, so poor soils should be amended with compost, peat moss or other organic matter. Most bulbs prefer a site that does not receive full sunlight in the middle of the day.

PASCHE A b s t r a c t : Results of field studies of 15 populations belonging to Crocus biflorus sensu lato are presented from Caria and Pisidia as well as of additional populations in adjacent parts of Anatolia for comparative purposes. The evaluation considers all south- west Anatolian populations (including the 16 ones of part two from the Lycian and Pisidian Taurus) and the 14 ones for comparative purposes under morphological, statis- tical, taxonomical, geographical, and phytogeographical aspects. New and unexpected facts were revealed concerning the relationship and distribution of C. biflorus taxa in this area of which two new taxa are described for. Key words: Crocus biflorus, south-west Anatolia, field studies, morphology, phytogeography, new subspecies yataganensis and caelestis. Introduction In part two of our article on Crocus biflorus in Anatolia (KERNDORFF & PASCHE 2003) we have presented results of detailed field studies from individual mountains or ranges in the Lycian and Pisidian Taurus including new results on the occurrence and distribution pattern of C. biflorus in these areas. On mountains not known before we discovered many C. biflorus populations, belonging to previously known or newly described taxa, or sometimes difficult or even impossible to classify upon the information available (KERN- DORFF & PASCHE 2004b).

A short literature history of the closely related taxon Crocus isauricus Siehe ex Bowles (≡ Crocus biflorus subsp. isauricus (Siehe ex Bowles) Mathew) is given together with a lectotypification of its name, and a discussion of the type specimen and locus classicus. Diagnostic characters were discussed of the taxa belonging to the “isauricus group” (C. biflorus subsp. isauricus, C. roseoviolaceus, C. mersinensis, C. taseliensis, and C. karamanensis). Fenugreek scented flowers are reported for the first time for the genus. Key words: Asparagales, Crocus biflorus subsp. isauricus, Fenugreek odour, Lectotypification Introduction Crocus biflorus Miller (1768: 4) subsp. isauricus (Siehe ex Bowles 1924: 126) Mathew (1982: 82) varies throughout its distribution and is endemic to Turkey, whereupon the epithet indicates a mountainous area that is in between the gulf of Antalya and the gulf of Mersin in South Turkey, which was known as “Isauria” in classical times. Although Bowles (1924) described the taxon and introduced it to the literature, the plant was first collected by Walter Siehe from the Cilician Taurus Mountains in 1907.
