Small Space Vegetable Flower Container Gardening.Pub
CORNELL COOPERATIVE EXTENSION OF ONEIDA COUNTY 121 Second Street Oriskany, NY 13424-9799 (315) 736-3394 or (315) 337-2531 FAX: (315) 736-2580 An unadorned patio, deck, or balcony is a tantalizing invitation to garden in containers. Each summer, visitors to Cornell Plantations marvel at the colorful spectacle of container plant- ings assembled around the Lewis Education Center. The bold, sometimes flamboyant flowers and foliage evoke a sense of the tropics and mirror our warm summers. Container garden- ing is gaining popularity for small spaces, and as a way to ac- cent existing gardens. Selecting a container Virtually anything that will hold water is a candidate for con- tainer growing. From a bag of soil with holes punched for planting and drainage to wooden tubs, old riding boots, milk cans, hanging baskets and fancy ornamental pots. You can choose the size, shape and cost to fit your needs and desires. The deeper the pot the less watering it will need. Pots with a small soil volume will dry out faster and require more frequent watering. Unlike plants in the ground, plants in pots or hang- ing baskets in the yard, on the deck or on the windowsill are exposed on all sides to the drying effects of wind and sun. On hot, windy days you may have to water them more than once. Darker colored containers will absorb more heat, which can get seeds and transplants off to a faster start, but these con- tainers will need more watering if they are in direct sunlight. Lighter colored containers may be better for most gardeners.

A Taxonomic Survey of Lotus Section Pedrosia (Leguminosae, Loteae) Graeme Sandral, Margarita V
© Landesmuseum für Kärnten; download www.landesmuseum.ktn.gv.at/wulfenia; www.biologiezentrum.at Wulfenia 13 (2006): 97–192 Mitteilungen des Kärntner Botanikzentrums Klagenfurt A taxonomic survey of Lotus section Pedrosia (Leguminosae, Loteae) Graeme Sandral, Margarita V. Remizowa & Dmitry D. Sokoloff Summary: A taxonomic review of the section Pedrosia (excl. sect. Rhyncholotus) is presented. Members of the section occur in the Macaronesian Islands, north-western part of Africa and in the Mediterranean region. Centers of diversity are Canary Islands, Cape Verde, Madeira and Morocco. Twenty nine species of the section are recognized; their diagnostic characters are discussed and extensively illustrated. An identifi cation key to species of the section is given as well as morphological descriptions of species and subspecies. Leaf morphology was found to be a particularly useful character in species discrimination. Many species are quite variable, and their identifi cation is only possible using a suite of several characters. Furthermore, various morphological characters have different taxonomic weight in different regions (e.g. Cape Verde and Morocco). The following taxonomic decisions are adopted: (1) Lotus azoricus is synonymous with L . argyrodes; (2) L . tenellus is accepted as a species distinct from L . glaucus, with an area covering Tenerife and Gran Canaria; (3) all material examined from Hierro (Canary Islands) is identifi ed asL . sessilifolius; (4) L . hillebrandii is treated as a subspecies of L . campylocladus; (5) L . spartioides is synonymous with L . holosericus. Representatives of the section Pedrosia from Lanzarote and Fuerteventura are closer to those from Madeira than to plants from other Canary Islands. Keywords: Fabaceae, Leguminosae, Loteae, Lotus, Pedrosia, taxonomy, determination key, typifi cation, comb.

Bird–Flower Interactions in the Macaronesian Islands
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Digital.CSIC RIGINA L Bird–flower interactions in the ARTICLE Macaronesian islands Alfredo Valido*, Yoko L. Dupont and Jens M. Olesen Department of Ecology and Genetics, ABSTRACT University of Aarhus, Aarhus C, Denmark Aims Several bird-pollinated or ornithophilous flowers are present on the Macaronesian archipelagos, the Canary Islands and Madeira, but absent from nearby NW Africa and Europe. In Macaronesia, no specialist nectar-feeding birds are found, but several generalist passerine bird species visit flowers for nectar. Two hypotheses attempt to explain the origin and evolution of ornithophily in the Macaronesian flora. According to ‘the island de novo hypothesis’, bird-flowers evolved from mainland insect-pollinated ancestors after island colonization. Alternatively, ancestors of the ornithophilous Macaronesian plant species evolved bird-flowers before reaching the islands (‘the relict hypothesis’). In this study we first compile information of Macaronesian bird–flower interactions from the literature and our own field observations. Secondly, we discuss the two hypotheses of origin of ornithophily in the light of evidence from recent molecular plant phylogenies, palaeontology, historical biogeography of the African avifauna and flora, and present-day ecological patterns. Location Madeira and Canary Islands. Results At least eleven endemic Macaronesian plant species from six genera have typical ornithophilous floral traits. These genera are: Canarina and Musschia (Campanulaceae), Isoplexis (Scrophulariaceae), Echium (Boraginaceae), Lotus (Fabaceae) and Lavatera (Malvaceae). These lineages have clear affinities to the Mediterranean region, except for Canarina whose closest relatives grow in East African mountains. Six generalist passerine bird species of Sylvia, Phylloscopus (Sylviidae), Serinus (Fringillidae) and Parus (Paridae) visit this flora for nectar.

(Lotus) was the symbiont for L. uliginosus and related species. As discussed in this review, this situation has dramatically changed during the last 15 years, with the characterization of nodule bacteria from worldwide geographical locations and from previously unexplored Lotus spp. Current data support that the Lotus rhizobia are dispersed amongst nearly 20 species in five genera (Mesorhizobium, Bradyrhizobium, Rhizobium, Ensifer, and Aminobacter). As a consequence, M. loti could Edited by: be regarded an infrequent symbiont of Lotus, and several plant–bacteria compatibility Lorena Carro, groups can be envisaged.

RORAIMA NURSERY Newsletter No. 15 20 Swan Street Lara Vic 3212 Autumn 2015 Ph: 03 5282 8704 Email: [email protected] Website: www.roraimanursery.com.au Happy Easter from the Staff and Management of Roraima Nursery. We will be closed on Good Friday, and trading as normal from 9am till 5pm on all other days of the Easter Holidays. RORAIMA PLANT PROFILE Strelitzia juncea Native to South Africa is this architectural plant that becomes a striking feature in any garden or large pot. It is slow growing in its early age, but as it matures, seems to speed up its growth. It has a similar flower to Strelitzia reginae, but its foliage is completely different. It has striking rush-like foliage with a narrow leaf blade at the top compared with the much larger leaf of S. reginae. Strelitzia juncea generally takes 3-4 years to flower. Once that age, with adequate watering and feeding, it should flower each year. The flower of Strelitzia juncea appears below the level of the highest leaf tips as opposed to S. reginae where the flower is above the leaf tips. Pictured to the right is a 4 year old Strelitzia juncea in Roraima’s developing display gardens. Below left is a Strelitzia juncea that is at least 70+ years old that has been growing at St Marys Church, Geelong, displaying its massive form, 2m height, texture and vibrant flowers for years. Thanks to St Marys staff for allowing this image to be taken. Preferring well- drained rich soil and full sun/part shade, it is a very easy plant to maintain.

The Canary Islands
The Canary Islands Dragon Trees & Blue Chaffinches A Greentours Tour Report 3rd - 12th February 2018 Leaders: Ian Bennallick and Phil Benstead Friday 2nd February 2018 – Ian to El Patio Ian arrived from Exeter to a sunny and warm southern part of the island and managed to sort ferry tickets but not shopping for the picnics as everywhere closed for a saint’s day. Tenerife had been experiencing stormy weather for a few days which had dumped a lot of snow on Mt Teide, so much that roads up to it were closed. Arriving at El Patio near Garachico on the north coast in the evening, Ian had a delicious dinner in Garachico at Casa Gaspar. Day 0 - Saturday 3rd February 2018 – The group to El Patio With much better weather forecast, Ian picked up Robert and Laura, Peter and Ruth from the airport at lunchtime and soon were driving north. With a couple of hours to explore Ian drove up the road to Mt Teide to check if the endemic and localised orchid Himantoglossum metlesicianum was flowering. Everything looked a bit behind flower wise, and the Canary Island Pine (Pinus canariensis) forest was looking dry. Some Almond (Prunus dulcis) trees were in bloom but the Aeonium spp. were not flowering as they had in 2017. Remembering the pull-in to stop, Ian carefully walked down the slope from the road but could only find leaves of the orchids. Carrying on to EL Patio, Ian had contacted Phil who was picking up Jonathan, Jean and Brian, and confirmed that they were on the way from the airport.
