The f r ont cover drawing is one - 1 - en the world i s mud­ little an ·ar and wee March, 1983 ill come Greetings marbles and it's This 1983 catalog, my eighth, is the third to specialize in Iris pumila and other small bearded Iris species. It is the most extensive listing of the smallest bearded forms of the genus available anywhere in the world . In 1983 I am listing 103 pumila forms, ten more than 1982, with 22 forms of other Iris species and 23 dis puddle-wonderful of my most recent other-than-pumila introductions. I am introducing five new varieties in 1983, detailed on pages 3 and 4. John D. Taylor's LLANTHONY, my first SDB introduction from England's premier hybridizer of small irises, arrived here last summer. Lothar Denkewitz's HAMBURGER NACHT n whistles bloomed well in 1982. My own varieties, FAR AND WEE and FLAKES, both MDBs, and wee PAUL, an SDB, complete the list of 1983 introductions. 'sbel come dancing QUIP won both an AIS Honorable Mention in 1982, with more votes than any other MDB, and first place among MDBs in the 1982 International Competition in Vienna, Austria. Among SDBs in Vienna, Denkewitz's BLONDE CARMEN placed second and ch and jump-rope and Taylor's BRECON placed fourth. Taylor's SDBs did well in judging in their native England; BIBURY won the British Dykes Medal and a First Class Certificate at Wisley, KATIE PETTS won the Lemon Trophy, and SARAH TAYLOR and ANNE ELIZABETH earned Awards of Merit at Wisley. Three of my seedlings won Exhibition Certificates. FLAKES, under seedling number, was named best seedling at the Iris Society of Minnesota Early Show; the flower was cut in bud in my garden and taken to the show by my parents! MDB seedlings 416, a pink, and 448, a red, won ECs at the Northern Illinois Iris Society Early oted Show. In addition, my exhibit of WIRE RIM was judged Queen of the Show (best specimen) at the NIIS show. whistles Four seedlings arrived last summer from Lothar Denkewitz, including two winners of Vienna awards. It may be helpful for you in determining what to order to know how I set prices for the varieties I list. Except for the newest ones, prices are based on the amount of available stock as of an inventory done the previous October. In 1983 that means that for varieties counted at 20 or more plants the price is $2.00, while those with 7 or less plants are $10.00. Perhaps this will answer the Min­ nesota customer who last year asked why a variety as widely grown as Blue Capers was priced at $6.00. Varieties that grow well will eventually come down in price unless demand keeps the price up, while those that increase slowly will stay high in price. (1923) I would like to acknowledge the invaluable assistance of two non-irisarian nd Chimneys friends in the production of this catalog. Joe has typed the copy for the cata­ log on his sophisticated word - processing machine each year since 1980 and Bill has helped collate, fold, staple, seal, address, and stamp the catalog since 1976. Their contributions have improved the appearance of the catalog, kept its cost down, and prevented me from going totally crazy in March of each year. While I am giving credits, you might be interested in the origins of the two TS on Inside Back Cover drawings I use . The front cover drawing is one I did based on the photograph of - 1 - Iris arenaria by Wilhelm Schacht on page 179 of Randolph's GaPden Irises (AIS 1959). It was originally done for the program of the 1973 NIIS Early Show. The drawing of Iris pwnila on the back cover which I also use on my stationery and which has really become my logo is an adaption of a drawing by George Shoup which was originally used on the catalog cover for Bennett Jones' Raleigh Hills Gardens from 1956 through 1964. Be sure to check your address label on the cover. If you find an asterisk(*) on it, this is the last year you will receive a catalog UNLESS you either order this year or drop me a card to indicate that you want to continue to receive it.

  • Practical Experiences in Invasive Alien Plant Control. Rosalia Handbooks
    ROSALIA Handbooks ROSALIA Handbooks Practical Experiences in Invasive Alien Plant Control Invasive plant species pose major agricultural, silvicultural, human health and ecological problems worldwide, and are considered the most signifi cant threat for nature conservation. Species invading natural areas in Hungary have been described by a number of books published in the Practical Experiences in Invasive Alien Plant Control last few years. A great amount of experience has been gathered about the control of these species in some areas, which we can read about in an increasing number of articles; however, no book has been published with regards to the whole country. Invasions affecting larger areas require high energy and cost input, and the effectiveness and successfulness of control can be infl uenced by a number of factors. The development of effective, widely applicable control and eradication technologies is preceded by experiments and examinations which are based on a lot of practical experience and often loaded with negative experiences. National park directorates, forest and agricultural managers and NGOs in many parts of Hungary are combatting the spread of invasive species; however, the exchange of information and conclusion of experiences among the managing bodies is indispensable. The aim of the present volume is to facilitate this by summarizing experiences and the methods applied in practice; which, we hope, will enable us to successfully stop the further spread of invasive plant species and effectively protect our natural values. Hungary-Slovakia Cross-border Co-operation Programme 2007-2013 Duna-Ipoly National Park Directorate Financial support for this manual has been provided by “Unified protection against invasive alien plants in sand and floodplain habitats” project.

This prize is awarded quadrennially for a lecture on the fundamental concepts of Natural Philosophy. This year’s award goes to Professor Stephen Barnett FRS FRSE, who is based in the Department of Physics at the University of Strathclyde. Professor Barnett is one of the world’s most eminent scientists in the field of Quantum Optics. A previous winner of the Institute of Physics’ Maxwell Medal, he is perhaps best known for his co-discovery of the Barnett-Pegg phase operator. This established the first formally correct approach for handling both angles and phase as descriptions within quantum systems. Still within quantum physics, Professor Barnett holds a number of patents relating to techniques for writing unbreakable codes. For a subject that is potentially beyond most people’s understanding, Professor Barnett is well known for presenting the counter-commonsense implications of quantum mechanics in an accessible and entertaining way, stripping the subject of its supporting mathematics and leaving only the essence of pure ideas.

    n. s. Volume LVIII ANNALI DI BOTANICA 2000 A PRELIMINARY LIST OF RARE OR ENDANGERED IRIDACEAE SPECIES At this meeting the importance of focussing on rare and endangered Iridaceae species in each country became evident. A complete check list of the conservation status of rare and endangered Irid a cea e species is not yet estabilished. Here we present (Appendix) the list of the World Conservation Monitoring Centre (WCMC)* for rare and endangered Iridaceae, according to the IUCN categories. Some problems occur in listing rare and endangered species. For example, although in Israel legislation has protected all Iris species since 1964, so that we have now a complete list, this is not the case in other countries and for other genera. Furthermore, unsolved taxonomic problems confused the issue in some species and the exact distribution of others is still unknown. Here, we want to stimulate colleagues working on Irid a c e a e to send new information to the monitoring centre to improve the current red list. In Italy, we have species of bearded irises which are endangered because of animal and/or human influence. For example, in some areas of Italy, wild boar populations have been promoted to favour hunting, with resulting damage to Iris populations which have been rapidly reduced to a few individuals, as I. relicta Colas, on Monte delle Fate (Southern Lazio), because the boars dig up Iris rhizomes. In other areas, the intensive construction of houses has endangered some populations, for example, in the case of/, setina Colas. (Latina), a bearded Iris that flowers in February.

Досліджені насінини характеризуються як спільними, так і відмінними ознаками. До спільних морфологічних ознак належать: форма та положення рубчика (округлий, невеликий, за положенням – базальний); форма та межі клітин тести (полігональні, їх межі майже не проглядаються); характер потовщення та ступінь звивистості антиклінальних стінок (рівномірно потовщені, прямі). Ці ознаки, на нашу думку, можуть бути додатковими діагностичними на рівні роду. Розрізняються насінини типом кутикули, типом ультраструктури поверхні, формою та розміром насінин.

(2003): Chromosome numbers in selected monocotyledons (Czech Republic, Hun- gary and Slovakia). – Preslia, Praha, 75: 97–113. The annotated chromosome numbers of 25 species from 6 families of monocotyledons, most of them (14) belonging to Poaceae family, are presented here. The data, except three chromosome counts (Allium oleraceum from Hungary and Calamagrostis villosa from Slovakia), are all based on plants collected in the Czech Republic. The karyological data of 21 species represents new informa- tion. While the majority of species presented here originated from one or two localities each, the species Calamagrostis villosa has been studied more extensively: all plants, collected altogether at 13 localities (mountain and lower altitudes), are characterized by an invariable decaploid level (2n = 70). The record of triploid Allium oleraceum is only the second reference to this rare ploidy level in this species. All original karyological data are compared with literature references to particular spe- cies, preferentially from Europe. K e y w o r d s : karyotaxonomy, cytogeography, Araceae, Cyperaceae, Iridaceae, Liliaceae, Orchidaceae, Poaceae Introduction The majority of both published and unpublished chromosome numbers for the Czech flora have been summarized ten years ago in the “List of chromosome numbers of the Czech vascular plants” (Měsíček & Javůrková-Jarolímová 1992).

In the experimental stations, the natural surfaces suffered a restriction, especially in the case of semi-fixed sand hills. This contributes to a numeric reduction of plants. The sand hills’ peculiar vegetation was affected by the expansion of some ruderal plants and weeds, with a local invasive character. The recent increase of dereliction areas influences negatively the persistency of specific rare species. Under these circumstances, during 2008, some rare species were rediscovered; some of them have not been signalized during the last 30 years, being considered disappeared from the flora in the North-West of Romania. Keywords: semi-fixed sand hills, ruderal plants, invasive character, flora of sands INTRODUCTION parallel. The longitudinal axis of the main sand hills Situated in a plain region, the continental sands in reaches 1-1.5 km and the breadth of 100 - 400m. the North-West of Romania lie along the North-West The Nirului Plain reaches the absolute altitude border, occupying one third of the total sands’ surface (155-160 m) in the Western and Central sides of the of our country. The rest of it (called Nyirség) belongs territory.
