  • April 26, 2019
    April 26, 2019 Theodore Payne Foundation’s Wild Flower Hotline is made possible by donations, memberships, and the generous support of S&S Seeds. Now is the time to really get out and hike the trails searching for late bloomers. It’s always good to call or check the location’s website if you can, and adjust your expectations accordingly before heading out. Please enjoy your outing, and please use your best flower viewing etiquette. Along Salt Creek near the southern entrance to Sequoia National Park, the wildflowers are abundant and showy. Masses of spring flowering common madia (Madia elegans) are covering sunny slopes and bird’s-eye gilia (Gilia tricolor) is abundant on flatlands. Good crops of owl’s clover (Castilleja sp.) are common in scattered colonies and along shadier trails, woodland star flower (Lithophragma sp.), Munz’s iris (Iris munzii), and the elegant naked broomrape (Orobanche uniflora) are blooming. There is an abundance of Chinese houses (Collinsia heterophylla) and foothill sunburst (Pseudobahia heermanii). This is a banner year for the local geophytes. Mountain pretty face (Tritelia ixiodes ssp. anilina) and Ithuriel’s spear (Triteliea laxa) are abundant. With the warming temperatures farewell to spring (Clarkia cylindrical subsp. clavicarpa) is starting to show up with their lovely bright purple pink floral display and is particularly noticeable along highway 198. Naked broom rape (Orobanche uniflora), foothill sunburst (Pseudobahia heermanii). Photos by Michael Wall © Theodore Payne Foundation for Wild Flowers & Native Plants, Inc. No reproduction of any kind without written permission. The trails in Pinnacles National Park have their own personality reflecting the unusual blooms found along them.

  • "National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
    Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment.

  • Clarkia Tenella Is Tetraploid, Having N 34 (Hiorth, 1941; Raven and Lewis, 1959) and 2Fl32 (Moore and Lewis, I965b)
    VARIATION AND EVOLUTION IN SOUTH AMERICAN CLARKIA D. M. MOORE and HARLAN LEWiS Botany Department, University of Leicester and Botany Department, University of California, Los Angeles Received5.V.65 1.INTRODUCTION THEgenus Clarkia (Onagracee), currently considered to contain 36 species, is restricted to the western parts of North and South America (fig. i). The 35 North American species are distributed from Baja California to British Columbia (300N.to 48° N.), most of them occurring in California. The South American populations, which have a smaller though still considerable latitudinal spread (290 30' S. to 42030'S.), comprise a single variable species, Clarkia tenella (Cay.) H. and M. Lewis (Lewis and Lewis, within which four sub.. species have been recognised (Moore and Lewis, i 965b). Clarkia tenella is tetraploid, having n 34 (Hiorth, 1941; Raven and Lewis, 1959) and 2fl32 (Moore and Lewis, i965b). It is placed in section Godetia, together with seven North American species, and shows its closest affinities with the only tetraploid among these, C. davyi (Jeps.) H. and M. Lewis. A study of artificial hybrids between C. tenella and C. davji, together with pakeo-ecological evidence, led Raven and Lewis (i) to hypothesise that the two species were derived from a common tetraploid ancestor which had traversed the tropics by long-distance dispersal during or since the Late-Tertiary and given rise to the populations now comprising C. tenella. Detailed study of the variation within Clarkia tenella was made possible by a field trip to Chile and Argentina during 1960-61 and by subsequent experimental work at Leicester and Los Angeles.
