    Department of Planning and Zoning Subject: Howard County Landscape Manual Updates: Recommended Street Tree List (Appendix B) and Recommended Plant List (Appendix C) - Effective July 1, 2010 To: DLD Review Staff Homebuilders Committee From: Kent Sheubrooks, Acting Chief Division of Land Development Date: July 1, 2010 Purpose: The purpose of this policy memorandum is to update the Recommended Plant Lists presently contained in the Landscape Manual. The plant lists were created for the first edition of the Manual in 1993 before information was available about invasive qualities of certain recommended plants contained in those lists (Norway Maple, Bradford Pear, etc.). Additionally, diseases and pests have made some other plants undesirable (Ash, Austrian Pine, etc.). The Howard County General Plan 2000 and subsequent environmental and community planning publications such as the Route 1 and Route 40 Manuals and the Green Neighborhood Design Guidelines have promoted the desirability of using native plants in landscape plantings. Therefore, this policy seeks to update the Recommended Plant Lists by identifying invasive plant species and disease or pest ridden plants for their removal and prohibition from further planting in Howard County and to add other available native plants which have desirable characteristics for street tree or general landscape use for inclusion on the Recommended Plant Lists. Please note that a comprehensive review of the street tree and landscape tree lists were conducted for the purpose of this update, however, only

Weeks, Dendrologist Department of Forestry and Natural Resources Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907 This publication is available in color at http://www.ces.purdue.edu/extmedia/fnr.htm Introduction When most Midwesterners think of a magnolia, images of the grand, evergreen southern magnolia (Magnolia grandiflora) (Figure 1) usually come to mind. Even those familiar with magnolias tend to think of them as occurring only in the South, where a more moderate climate prevails. Seven species do indeed thrive, especially in the southern Appalachian Mountains. But how many Hoosiers know that there are two native species Figure 2. Cucumber magnolia when planted will grow well throughout Indiana. In Charles Deam’s Trees of Indiana, the author reports “it doubtless occurred in all or nearly all of the counties in southern Indiana south of a line drawn from Franklin to Knox counties.” It was mainly found as a scattered, woodland tree and considered very local. Today, it is known to occur in only three small native populations and is listed as State Endangered Figure 1.

  • Native Trees of Georgia
    1 NATIVE TREES OF GEORGIA By G. Norman Bishop Professor of Forestry George Foster Peabody School of Forestry University of Georgia Currently Named Daniel B. Warnell School of Forest Resources University of Georgia GEORGIA FORESTRY COMMISSION Eleventh Printing - 2001 Revised Edition 2 FOREWARD This manual has been prepared in an effort to give to those interested in the trees of Georgia a means by which they may gain a more intimate knowledge of the tree species. Of about 250 species native to the state, only 92 are described here. These were chosen for their commercial importance, distribution over the state or because of some unusual characteristic. Since the manual is intended primarily for the use of the layman, technical terms have been omitted wherever possible; however, the scientific names of the trees and the families to which they belong, have been included. It might be explained that the species are grouped by families, the name of each occurring at the top of the page over the name of the first member of that family. Also, there is included in the text, a subdivision entitled KEY CHARACTERISTICS, the purpose of which is to give the reader, all in one group, the most outstanding features whereby he may more easily recognize the tree. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The author wishes to express his appreciation to the Houghton Mifflin Company, publishers of Sargent’s Manual of the Trees of North America, for permission to use the cuts of all trees appearing in this manual; to B. R. Stogsdill for assistance in arranging the material; to W.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The fruit tree Asimina triloba (L.) Dunal originates in the temperate zones of North America. Its fruits are edible and have great nutritional value. The fruits' commercial potential contributes to a growing demand for information about this plant in Romania. A series of morphological observations were performed on the fruits and seeds of Asimina plants adapted to the temperate climate of the Transylvania zone of Romania. Keywords: Asimina, fruit, seed. 1. INTRODUCTION The first document to mention Asimina triloba (L.) Dunal dates to 1514 and was written by Spanish explorer Hernando de Soto (Layne, 1996, Pickering, 1879; Sargent, 1890). It was only after 1900 that it was taken into consideration as a fruit tree and the first work to improve the species began, as well as research into the yield, cultivation and use of the fruits (St ănic ă and Cepoiu, 2003).

  • Assessing the Population Genetic Structure of the Endangered Cucumber Tree (Magnolia Acuminata) in Southwestern Ontario Using Nuclear and Chloroplast Genetic Markers
    ASSESSING THE POPULATION GENETIC STRUCTURE OF THE ENDANGERED CUCUMBER TREE (MAGNOLIA ACUMINATA) IN SOUTHWESTERN ONTARIO USING NUCLEAR AND CHLOROPLAST GENETIC MARKERS. A Thesis Submitted to the Committee on Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment to the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in the Faculty of Arts and Science Trent University Peterborough, Ontario, Canada © Copyright by Cara E. Budd 2014 Environmental and Life Sciences M.Sc. Graduate Program September 2014 Assessing the population genetic structure of the endangered Cucumber tree (Magnolia acuminata) in southwestern Ontario using nuclear and chloroplast genetic markers. Cara E. Budd ABSTRACT Magnolia acuminata (Cucumber tree) is the only native Magnolia in Canada, where it is both federally and provincially listed as endangered. Magnolia acuminata in Canada can be found inhabiting pockets of Carolinian forest within Norfolk and Niagara regions of southwestern Ontario. Using a combination of nuclear and chloroplast markers, this study assessed the genetic diversity and differentiation of M. acuminata in Canada, compared to samples from the core distribution of this species across the United States. Analyses revealed evidence of barriers to dispersal and gene flow among Ontario populations, although genetic diversity remains high and is in fact comparable to levels of diversity estimated across the much broader range of M. acuminata in the USA. When examining temporal differences in genetic diversity, our study found that seedlings were far fewer than mature trees in Ontario, and in one site in particular, diversity was lower in seedlings than that of the adult trees. This study raises concern regarding the future viability of M. acuminata in Ontario, and conservation managers should factor in the need to maintain genetic diversity in young trees for the long-term sustainability of M.

    it as voraciously as they do many other woody plants. Pawpaw serves as the principal host plant Wildflower in Focus for the zebra swallowtail butterfly. Text by Melanie Choukas-Bradley Flowers: Purple, maroon or brownish. Slightly Artwork by Tina Thieme Brown drooping and somewhat bell-like with 2 layers of 3 petals (6 in all). The outer 3 petals curve Pawpaw backwards. Petals are ovate or nearly round; Asimina triloba (L.) Dunal flowers 1 - 2" across, borne along the branchlets. Custard-Apple Family (Annonaceae) Pawpaw flower. Photo courtesy Melanie Choukas- Bradley Fruit: Greenish-yellow banana-like berry, 2 - 6" long. Edible, delicious. Favored by humans, bears, raccoons, opossums and wild turkeys. Leaves: Simple, alternate, deciduous, 6 - 12" long with an entire margin, abruptly pointed apex and wedge-shaped base. Large leaves are tropical- looking. Growth Habit: Small tree or tall shrub. The pawpaw is the only member of the largely tropical custard-apple family that is indigenous to Twigs: Slender, brown, pubescent when young, Maryland and northeastern North America. with dark reddish-brown woolly winter buds. The Pawpaw fruit, which ripens in early fall, is a cross terminal bud resembles a small paint brush. between a banana and mango in taste and texture. Other common names for the plant include "West Habitat and Range: Moist woods, streamsides, Virginia banana" and "Indiana banana." The riversides; scattered distribution in southern spring flowers, appearing before and with the Ontario and eastern U.S. from New York to young leaves, are equally as intriguing, blooming Florida, west to Nebraska and Texas. along streams and rivers and in moist rich woodlands.
