  • Srgc Bulb Log Diary
    SRGC ----- Bulb Log Diary ----- ISSN 2514-6114 Pictures and text © Ian Young BULB LOG 40................................4th October 2017 Rhododendron leaves Nothing is more characteristic of autumn than the leaves as they turn yellow, red and bright orange often with splashes of green still visible when you view them against the light as captured in the cover image of Hamamelis leaves. Photographed into the sun, exposed to retain the deep blue skies and using a small aperture which achieves the star effect of the sun. Shafts of light from the low sun passing through the trees and shrubs greatly adds to the drama of the season by picking out and highlighting colours creating striking effects of light and shade. Rhododendron leaves(above) also take on autumn colours as they come towards the end of their life then fall off – it is just that instead of lasting for a single growing season each Rhododendron leaf can last one or two years before it is shed so the shrub is never without leaves. There are some Rhododendrons that are deciduous, losing all their leaves every year, most of these are what we used to know as Azalea before they were sunk into Rhododendron. Crocus have a habit of getting everywhere in our garden as you may notice in this picture where a lone Crocus nudiflorus has made its way into the bonsai pot. The spotlight effect of a shaft of sunlight picks out Colchicum agrippinum and Crocus speciosus flowers growing through the fine foliage of Geranium robertianum with further colourful highlights provided by the leaves fallen from the Hamamelis, seen above and on the cover.

  • Morphology and Anatomy of Three Subsp. of Crocus Speciosus Bieb
    Bangladesh J. Bot. 37(2): 97-103, 2008 (December) MORPHOLOGY AND ANATOMY OF THREE SUBSP. OF CROCUS SPECIOSUS BIEB. * 1 CANAN ÖZDEMİR AND MAHMUT KILINÇ Department of Biology, Faculty of Art and Science, Celal Bayar University, Manisa-Turkey Key words : Crocus speciosus, Morphology, Anatomy, Turkey Abstract Moprhology and anatomy of Crocus speciosus Bieb. subsp. speciosus, C. speciosus Bieb. subsp. ilgazensis, C. speciosus subsp. xantholaimos were done. Two of them (subsp. ilgazensis and xantholaimos) are endemic to small areas of Turkey. The subsp. xantholaimos has flowers with tube stained yellow. The subsp. ilgazensis has a corm splitting into vertical fibres. These properties are characteristic for the two subspecies investigated. Cross-sections of root and aerial stem of three subspecies were examined and characterized. A key to the identification of the three taxa, based solely on anatomical features is provided here. Introductıon The genus Crocus is represented by about 80 species in the world, and in Turkey there are 37 species (Güner et al. 2000). The original saffron is being obtained from C. sativus L. since ancient times. In addition to this species a large number of Crocus species were brought into cultivation (Brigton et al.1980). The three subsp. of C. speciosus investigated during this study are autumn- flowering species (Fig. 1). Autumnal Crocus species have been popular for about 150 years and have several cultivars. The corms of the investigated Crocus subspecies, that flowered during autumn are eaten raw or cooked in ash after gathering from underground during spring in Turkey. People in some regions of Anatolia have some traditional celebrations by making “çiğdem pilavı” (Crocus pilaf).

  • Bartın Kentinde Tespit Edilen Bazı Geofit Bitkiler
    www.biodicon.com Biological Diversity and Conservation ISSN 1308-8084 Online; ISSN 1308-5301 Print 10/1 (2017) 49-54 Research article/Araştırma makalesi Some geophyte plants determined in Bartın/Turkey Burçin EKİCİ *1 1 Namık Kemal University, Faculty of Fine Arts, Department of Landscape Architecture, Tekirdağ, Turkey Abstract Geophyte plants, the subject of our research, are quite important in terms of ecology, economy, and ethnobotany. The discovery and promotion of these plants are important for conservation and sustainability of biodiversity.In this study, the province of Bartın and its surroundings were examined in terms of geophyte plant. Within this context, field works were made between the years 2012 and 2014 and geophytic species were collected. Collected plants were dried and preserved according to herbarium standards and their diagnostics were made utilizing some taxonomic and floristic references. 36 taxa from 4 families were identified as a result of this study.1 plant is Iranian- Turanian (2.8%), 7 plants are European-Siberian (19.4%), and 13 plants are Mediterranean elements (36.1%), whereas 15 plants (41.7%) are from the group, the phytogeographical region of which are unknown. Galanthus plicatus Bieb. ssp. byzantinus (Baker.) D. A. Webb. and Crocus ancyrensis (Herbert) Maw are endemic and the rate of endemism is 5.6℅. With this study, one of the key components of biodiversity, the geophyte plants, that spread in the province of Bartın are identified, their current conditions and the constraints on them are explained and improvement opportunities are specified. Besides this, it is intended to contribute to the identification and conservation of biological resources.

This study was carried out to reveal the vascular plant diversity of Çaltepe and Çeletepe. During 2015−2018, 2340 plant specimens were collected from the research area and 363 genera and 767 taxa belonging to 81 families were determined. Of all the collected taxa, 66 are endemic and endemism rate is %8.60. The IUCN threat categories of endemic and rare plants at global level are as follows: 1 taxon in “CR” category, as well as 4 taxa “EN”, 4 taxa “VU”, 9 taxa “NT”, and 45 taxa “LC”. Also, 3 rare taxa are found in the “VU” category, as well as 1 rare taxon in the “DD” category at regional level. 56 taxa are new records for the province of Bolu. The largest families in the study area are as follows: Asteraceae 97 taxa (%12.65), Fabaceae 62 taxa (%8.08), Lamiaceae 51 taxa (%6.65), Rosaceae 44 taxa (%5.74), Poaceae 37 taxa (%4.82), Brassicaceae 35 taxa (%4.56), Caryophyllaceae 32 taxa (%4.17), Apiaceae 28 taxa (%3.65), Boraginaceae 27 taxa (%3.52) and Orchidaceae 24 taxa (%3.13). The distribution of taxa into phytogeographic regions are as follows: 234 taxa (%30.50) Euro-Siberian, 64 taxa (%8.34) Mediterranean, 46 taxa (%5.99) Irano-Turanian, and 423 taxa (%55.15) multiregional and/or unknown.

The plant lists of Gladiolus, Crocus and other members of the Iridaceae family grown in the Botani- cal Garden from 1895 to 2021 are studied, with a supplement for the genus Iris, analyzed in 2019. The nomenclature, synonymy and origin of plant material were arranged. Lists of species grown in the last 126 years are constructed to show that throughout that period at least 448 taxa of wild and culti- vated Iridaceae from 30 genera inhabited the Garden’s collections. Today we have 371 taxa out of 21 genera. Out of this number, the genus Gladiolus accounts for 35 taxa (formerly 50), Crocus 7 (formerly 27), while Iris includes as many as 291 species, cultivars and hybrids. The remaining 18 Iridaceae genera are represented by 38 taxa.

  • FLOWERING PLANTS for the FALL GARDEN by Ray Rogers
    Garden Chatter, Sept. 2017 Merced Garden Club, Inc. http://californiagardenclubs.com/mercedgardenclub facsebook page: Merced Garden Club, Inc. Mexico Saves Millions of Monarch Butterflies by Stopping Logging in its Tracks https://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/mexico-saves-millions-monarch-butterflies-stopping-logging-tracks/#.WaW9J6QC1l0.mailto In 2013, conservationists voiced their concern over disappearing monarch butterfly populations in Mexico. Several years later, however, the government has ensured that the insects are flourishing, thanks to their crack down on illegal logging. According to the Mexican office of the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), the country’s newest environmental police force has curbed the logging of forests in which they were deployed by 94%. Only 1.5 acres of the core butterfly conservation zone were lost due to illegal logging. The police initiative, which currently employs over 1,000 officers, was created by Conanp, the Natural Protected Areas Commission, and the environmental police, according to Mexico News Daily. One of the most important protected zones in the program is the Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve: a region comprised of roughly 140,000 acres (56,000 hectares) of butterfly habitat in Michoacán, Mexico. The region has been named a UNESCO world heritage site in light of the breathtaking amounts of monarchs that flood the area every winter. Due to the success of the protection program, members of the environmental police have been deployed to 60 different forests and protected areas in total.
