Herb. but is distinguished readily by its tropics, Hippeastrum Herb. is one of the most species-rich larger flowers, distinct coloration pattern, and trifid genera of the family (Meerow, 2009), with ca. 70 species stigma. The new species is known only from the type distributed from Mexico to Argentina. The genus has two collection by Paul C. Hutchison in 1958. It was centers of diversity: eastern Brazil and the Andes of determined as H. miniatum in error and has apparently Bolivia and Peru (Meerow & Snijman, 1998).

Address for correspondence: Nicolás García, [email protected] DOI https://doi.org/10.1002/tax.12062 Abstract A robust generic classification for Amaryllidaceae has remained elusive mainly due to the lack of unequivocal diagnostic characters, a consequence of highly canalized variation and a deeply reticulated evolutionary history. A consensus classification is pro- posed here, based on recent molecular phylogenetic studies, morphological and cytogenetic variation, and accounting for secondary criteria of classification, such as nomenclatural stability. Using the latest sutribal classification of Hippeastreae (Hippeastrinae and Traubiinae) as a foundation, we propose the recognition of six genera, namely Eremolirion gen. nov., Hippeastrum, Phycella s.l., Rhodolirium s.str., Traubia, and Zephyranthes s.l. A subgeneric classification is suggested for Hippeastrum and Zephyranthes to denote putative subclades.

Leaves simple, with parallel nerves. In- terminal in umbels florescences or axillary, cymes, spikes or (in Amaryllidoideae), or flowers solitary, bracteateand often with one or few spathes (in Amaryllidoideae). Flowers sometimes in 2 free bisexual, actinomorphic or zygomorphic, marcescent. Tepals whorls, sometimes with Stamens free or united into a tube, a conspicuous corona. 6, or some- times united into a false corona, often inserted at the mouth of the perigone-tube; anthers often versatile. 3-celled with basifixed, dorsifixed or medifixed, Ovary inferior, axillary placentas; ovules 1 to numerous per cell. Fruit capsular, dehiscing either loculicidally or irregularly, or fruit a berry. Seeds globose or flattened, sometimes winged. Distribution— Cosmopolitan, with c. 80 genera and around 1000 species. In Malesia only 6 genera are indigenous or naturalized, but many others are cultivatedin botanic and private gardens (see the list on p. 371). Taxonomy — The family is treated here in a broad sense, comprising the genera with an inferior ovary, i.e. excluding the Allioideae(= Alliaceae), which are characterized by a superior ovary. In Malesia there are no indigenous species of the latter family, which is treated elsewhere in this instalment (p. 375). The Agavoideae (partly with an inferiorovary and partly with a superior one) are also excluded. The family Agavaceae has one indigenous genus in Malesia (Dracaena, includ- ing Pleomele). In the Amaryllidaceae two subfamilies are hererecognized which are often considered to be distinctfamilies: the Amaryllidoideae (= Amaryllidaceae s.

Article Information: Submission: 02/03/2021; Accepted: 08/06/2021; Published: 16/06/2021 Abstract The Dimasa Kacharis of Dima Hasao, Assam, India have adopted many ethnic ways of using plants, surrounding them, sometimes due to easy availability or poor communication system. But, with modernization, the ethnicity is gradually fading. Thus, it is very important to scientifically document, restore and preserve the knowledge of ethnobotany for greater interest of human society. The extensive interview survey has been carried out among the people of Dimasa Kachari community of 18 villages in Maibang, Langting, Diyungbra and Umrangso of Dima Hasao, Assam from the month of August 2015 to May 2017 following the open-ended questionnaire survey. Sixty-two respondents report a total of 116 plant species and 19 plant parts, of which 74, 60, 22 and 15 species and 13, 12, 11 and 7 plant parts are used for medicinal, edible, cultural and household uses respectively, where some of them are used commonly.

The colour range available in commercial hybrids is dominated by white and red. The commercial potential of Hippeastrum as a floriculture crop is significant, but production of the cut flowers is limited to warm climatic regions or glasshouse production in temperate regions.

  • Expanding the Seasonal Potted Plant Floral Market in North America with Containerized Protea Cynaroides L
    Expanding The Seasonal Potted Plant Floral Market In North America With Containerized Protea cynaroides L. Betty Ziskovsky, Master of Professional Horticultural Studies, Department of Horticultural Science, University of Minnesota November 9, 2015 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The existing floriculture market for Christmas potted plants has been dominated by the Poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima) for an astounding 160 years. Most recent USDA statistics show that the Poinsettia/Christmas market accounts for 23% of all potted plants sales in the US or $144 Million annually. It is the number 1 selling potted plant with Easter lilies a distant second ($22 Million in sales). The average lifespan of a floriculture product (cultivar) is one to two years. Poinsettia is way over due for displacement, but a competing plant with similar Christmas tradition-based credentials has never surfaced. An abundance of money is spent by consumers on floral decorations for the Christmas holiday. That market is not saturated – consumers are limited in their buying by the lack of choice: the only option is a Poinsettia. The Christmas market is a niche with huge profit potential for an alternative or supplemental that offers novelty, beauty, and the symbolic Christmas connection. The commercial development and marketing of a dwarf variety of Protea cynaroides L. meets those criteria. This paper discusses the background information on P. cynaroides, a marketing rationale for that plant to compete with or alongside Poinsettias for Christmas plant sales, and a discussion of what steps can be taken to launch a successful production and marketing program to tap into and possibly capture the rich profit potential of the Christmas floral potted plant market to expand the overall US floriculture market beyond its present levels.
