ENH 135 Lists of Plants on the Landscape Plant Propagation Database on IFAS/VAX1 Dewayne L. Ingram2 Propagation information is available on the following plants in the Landscape Plant Propagation Information Retrieval System (LPPI) accessible through the Ornamental Horticulture Submenu of the IFAS-VAX Menu system. LPPI is an interactive computer application developed for retrieval of propagation information on several hundred landscape plants. LPPI has been written in S1032, a database manager. The user can list plants in the database and retrieve information on individual plants by entering all or part of the scientific or common name. The database (Table 1) contains general descriptive information on each plant,the primary and secondary means of propagating the plant and important techniques to consider in each suggested propagation method. Possible propagation methods include cuttings, seed, layering, grafting and budding, and division. The information on each plant may not be complete but reflects information collected to date. The database will be continually updated as additional information is obtained. A more detailed description of LPPI is presented in Florida Cooperative Extension Circular No. 760, "Landscape Plant Propagation Information Retrieval System." 1.

  • SALT TOLERANT PLANTS Recommended for Pender County Landscapes
    North Carolina Cooperative Extension NC STATE UNIVERSITY SALT TOLERANT PLANTS Recommended for Pender County Landscapes Pender County Cooperative Extension Urban Horticulture Leaflet 14 Coastal Challenges Plants growing at the beach are subjected to environmental conditions much different than those planted further inland. Factors such as blowing sand, poor soils, high temperatures, and excessive drainage all influence how well plants perform in coastal landscapes, though the most significant effect on growth is salt spray. Most plants will not tolerate salt accumulating on their foliage, making plant selection for beachfront land- scapes particularly challenging. Salt Spray Salt spray is created when waves break on the beach, throwing tiny droplets of salty water into the air. On-shore breezes blow this salt laden air landward where it comes in contact with plant foliage. The amount of salt spray plants receive varies depending on their proximity to the beachfront, creating different vegetation zones as one gets further away from the beachfront. The most salt-tolerant species surviving in the frontal dune area. As distance away from the ocean increases, the level of salt spray decreases, allowing plants with less salt tolerance to survive. Natural Protection The impact of salt spray on plants can be lessened by physically blocking salt laden winds. This occurs naturally in the maritime forest, where beachfront plants protect landward species by creating a layer of foliage that blocks salt spray. It is easy to see this effect on the ocean side of maritime forest plants, which are “sheared” by salt spray, causing them to grow at a slant away from the oceanfront.

  • Disease and Insect Resistant Ornamental Plants: Viburnum
    nysipm.cornell.edu 2018 hdl.handle.net/1813/56379 Disease and Insect Resistant Ornamental Plants Mary Thurn, Elizabeth Lamb, and Brian Eshenaur New York State Integrated Pest Management Program, Cornell University VIBURNUM Viburnum pixabay.com Viburnum is a genus of about 150 species of de- ciduous, evergreen and semi-evergreen shrubs or small trees. Widely used in landscape plantings, these versatile plants offer diverse foliage, color- ful fruit and attractive flowers. Viburnums are relatively pest-free, but in some parts of the US the viburnum leaf beetle can be a serious pest in both landscape and natural settings. Potential diseases include bacterial leaf spot and powdery mildew. INSECTS Viburnum Leaf Beetle, Pyrrhalta viburni, is a leaf-feeding insect native to Europe and Asia. In North America, the beetle became established around Ottawa, Canada in the 1970’s and was first detected in the United States in Maine in 1994 and in New York in 1996. It has since spread through much of the northeastern US (15). Reports of viburnum leaf beetle in the Midwest include Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin and Illinois (1) and Washington and British Columbia, Canada in the Pacific Northwest (7). The beetle is host-specific and feeds only on Viburnum, but there are preferences within the genus (6). Species with thick leaves tend to be more resistant and feeding is more likely to occur on plants grown in the shade (17). Feeding by both larvae and adults causes tattered leaves and may result in extensive defoliation – repeated defoliations can kill the plant.
