  • Page 1 the Following Pages Outline Phasing Recommendations for The
    Kruckeberg Botanic Garden Master Site Plan PHASING AND IMPLEMENTATION he following pages outline phasing recommendations for the KruckebergT Botanic Garden that seem desirable to address the needs, vision, and requirements of a private garden’s evolution into the publc domain. With the transfer of this property from a private residence to a commercial public entity, new sets of codes, restrictions, and opportunities come into play. These deal with public safety, health, and well-being and ensure that equal opportunities are afforded to all. Within a limited budget, Phase 1 responds to these immediate needs by providing on-site public parking to reduce impacts to the surrounding residential community, adding much needed public restrooms, and creating a permanent and separate service access road and staff parking area. Phase 2 focuses on siting an interpretive switchback boardwalk trail that connects the upper and lower gardens in an aesthetic ADA-compliant manner. It is also envi- sioned that an ADA-compliant loop path would be routed through the lower garden. While it would be optimal to build the environmental learning center in Phase 2, it is recognized that lack of funding may require deferment to a later phase. Further development of future phases depends on many factors, most importantly securing funding and the commitment of the City, Foundation, and public to sup- port and encourage new work to proceed. In the end, this alone will determine how quickly Garden projects are completed and the Garden vision, as outlined in this report, is realized. This is a modest plan as represented by the development costs associated with each phase in 2010 dollars.

The hard- wood list (IAWA Committee 1989) has been adopted throughout the world, not least because it provides a succinct, unambiguous illustrated glossary of hardwood charac- ters that can be used for a variety of purposes, not just identification. This publication is intended to do the same job for softwoods. Identifying softwoods relies on careful observation of a number of subtle characters, and great care has been taken to show high quality photomicrographs that remove most of the ambiguity that definitions alone would provide.

Summary and Outlook 4829 Terrestrial and marine plants, animals, fungi, and bacteria (among others) are known to produce a multitude of secondary metabolites, often referred to as “natural prod- ucts.”[1] In contrast to the required production of primary overwhelming number of known secondary metabolites, and metabolites to sustain life, organisms can generally survive the often overlooked reporting of the optical rotation or CD without the production of secondary metabolites; however,

Naturforsch. 68 c, 87 – 96 (2013); received February 14, 2012/February 1, 2013 Four O-acylated fl avonol glycosides, new in the plant kingdom, were isolated from the needles of Pseudotsuga menziesii. Their structures were established by 1D and 2D NMR and MS data as: daglesioside I [kaempferol 3-O-[2’’,5’’-O-(4’’’,4IV-dihydroxy)-β- truxinoyl]-α-L-arabinofuranoside] (1), daglesioside II [kaempferol 3-O-[2’’,5’’-O-(4’’’- hydroxy)-β-truxinoyl]-α-L-arabinofuranoside] (2), daglesioside III [kaempferol 3-O-[2’’,5’’- di-O-(E)-p-coumaroyl]-α-L-arabinofuranoside] (3), and daglesioside IV [kaempferol 3-O-[3’’,6’’-di-O-(E)-cinnamoyl]-β-D-glucopyranoside] (4). In addition, the known fl avonoids (E)-tiliroside, (E)-ditiliroside, astragalin (kaempferol 3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside), isorhamne- tin, kaempferol, and quercetin were identifi ed. The cytotoxic activity of compounds 1 and 3 was evaluated towards the HL-60, HeLa, and MDA-MB468 cell lines.
