We specialize in herbs, everlasting flowers, and fragrant plants, in- cluding a large number of Native American species. We want to emphasize that these native plants are not dug up in the wild, but are all propagated in our nursery. We work very hard to provide our custom- ers not only with high quality plants, but ones that have been grown in a conscien- tious and environmentally friendly manner. We offer a wide variety of plants that attract hummingbirds and butterflies and hope that your appreciation of these creatures will heighten your appreciation for all others. Every year brings us new surprises, and our wish is to pass down to you the excitement and wonderment we get from gardening. Jim & Dotti Becker winners of the herb society of america’s 2009 Nancy Putnam howard award for excellence in horticulture OUR GUARANTEE All plants are guaranteed to arrive at your home in excellent health and guaran- teed to grow under proper conditions. They are shipped well rooted, in 3” pots. None are shipped bare-root. Our customers appreciate this since the plants do not have to be rushed into the ground upon their arrival. THE COVER ART is from the Oxford Book Of Garden Flowers, 1963. The flowers are, left to right, Rosemary, Lion’s Ears, English Lavender, Garden Sage, and Jerusalem Sage. 2 OUR NURSERY IS USDA & OREGON TILTH CERTIFIED ORGANIC The USDA National Organic Standard seal assures you that our procedures are authentically organic and meet the stringent standards set forth by the USDA and Oregon Tilth. Quoting the USDA, “these methods integrate cultural, biological, and mechanical practices that foster cycling of resources, promote ecological balance, and conserve biodiversity.

  • Diversidad De Plantas Y Vegetación Del Páramo Andino
    Plant diversity and vegetation of the Andean Páramo Diversidad de plantas y vegetación del Páramo Andino By Gwendolyn Peyre A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor from the University of Barcelona and Aarhus University University of Barcelona, Faculty of Biology, PhD Program Biodiversity Aarhus University, Institute of Bioscience, PhD Program Bioscience Supervisors: Dr. Xavier Font, Dr. Henrik Balslev Tutor: Dr. Xavier Font March, 2015 Aux peuples andins Summary The páramo is a high mountain ecosystem that includes all natural habitats located between the montane treeline and the permanent snowline in the humid northern Andes. Given its recent origin and continental insularity among tropical lowlands, the páramo evolved as a biodiversity hotspot, with a vascular flora of more than 3400 species and high endemism. Moreover, the páramo provides many ecosystem services for human populations, essentially water supply and carbon storage. Anthropogenic activities, mostly agriculture and burning- grazing practices, as well as climate change are major threats for the páramo’s integrity. Consequently, further scientific research and conservation strategies must be oriented towards this unique region. Botanical and ecological knowledge on the páramo is extensive but geographically heterogeneous. Moreover, most research studies and management strategies are carried out at local to national scale and given the vast extension of the páramo, regional studies are also needed. The principal limitation for regional páramo studies is the lack of a substantial source of good quality botanical data covering the entire region and freely accessible. To meet the needs for a regional data source, we created VegPáramo, a floristic and vegetation database containing 3000 vegetation plots sampled with the phytosociological method throughout the páramo region and proceeding from the existing literature and our fieldwork (Chapter 1).

  • Mentha Pulegium
    Mentha pulegium Status Schedule 8, Wildlife & Countryside Act (1981). IUCN Threat category: Least concern (2005). Nationally Scarce. UK Biodiversity Action Plan Priority species. Taxonomy Magnoliopsida: Lamiaceae Scientific name: Mentha pulegium L., Common names: Pennyroyal, Brymlys Mentha is a distinctive genus of the Dead-nettle family (Lamiaceae, Labiatae) which is instantly recognised by its distinctive minty smell. The flowers of Mentha and Lycopus are unusual in the British members of the Lamiaceae in having the corolla with four approximately equal lobes. Mentha differs from Lycopus in having lilac, red or purple (rarely albino) flowers with four stamens, rather than having white flowers with two stamens (Lycopus also does not smell of mint). Of the 13 Mentha taxa currently recorded in Britain (Stace 1997), there are two species which are much smaller than the others, M. pulegium and M. requienii. Mentha pulegium is quite distinct from the other larger species and does not hybridise with them. Mentha requienii is a garden escape and occurs in flower beds, pavements, lawns, etc. and looks more like Mind- your-own-business Soleirolia soleirolii than Mentha pulegium. There are reported to be two forms of Mentha pulegium, a prostrate native form (var. pulegium) and an erect introduced form (var. erecta Martyn). DNA analysis (R. Cowan, pers. comm. 2004) now confirms that there are indeed two forms, which interbreed and form intermediates where they grow together. Although var. erecta is often associated with known introduced sites it is not always so, and both taxa could equally be native, at least in some localities. Figure 1. Mentha pulegium.

As culmination it is also an impetus to continue to that journey. In achieving this personal goal many people, supervisors, friends, family and University colleagues have been instrumental in contributing to the final product. The initial motivation and inspiration for me to start this study was given by Professor Jamie Kirkpatrick, Dr. Elaine Stratford, and my friend Alison Howman. For that challenge I thank you. I am deeply indebted to my three supervisors Professor Jamie Kirkpatrick, Dr. Elaine Stratford and Dr. Aidan Davison. Each in their individual, concerted and special way guided me to this omega point.

  • Salvia Officinalis L. 142 4.5.26
    UNIVERSITÀ DEGLI STUDI DI PISA Dipartimento di Farmacia CORSO DI LAUREA MAGISTRALE IN FARMACIA Tesi di Laurea Analisi dei costituenti volatili emessi in vivo da specie del genere Salvia facenti parte di una collezione dell'Orto Botanico di Pisa mediante la tecnica SPME in GC-MS Relatore Candidata Dott. Guido Flamini Roberta Ascrizzi Correlatrice Dott.ssa Lucia Amadei Anno Accademico 2013-2014 Ai miei genitori. Riassunto Trenta specie del genere Salvia, facenti parte di una collezione dell’Orto Botanico di Pisa, sono state analizzate in vivo tramite la tecnica della Head-Space Solid Phase Micro-Extraction (HS- SPME) abbinata alla GC-MS (gas-cromatografia accoppiata alla spettrometria di massa). Sono stati identificati oltre 300 composti organici volatili (VOC). Il profilo di emissione di tali composti è stato sottoposto ad analisi statistica mediante il clustering gerarchico, effettuato sia sui singoli VOC, sia sulle classi chimiche dei composti. È emersa una discreta correlazione tra le similitudini rilevate dal clustering gerarchico e la provenienza geografica delle specie raccolte. In ragione dell’habitat originario delle diverse specie, infatti, il profilo di emissione in vivo dei VOC muta: piante provenienti da una stessa area geografica tendono ad avere pattern di emissione simili tra loro, sia in termini di prevalenza di composti individuali sia di classi chimiche. Non ho rintracciato nella letteratura studi effettuati su un numero così esteso di Salvie, né studi sulle emissioni volatili spontanee da parte di campioni analizzati in vivo, non sottoposti ad alcun trattamento di essiccamento, macinazione o distillazione. 1. Introduzione 3 2. Materiali e metodi 4 2.1. Prelievo dei campioni 4 2.2.
