In fact, their use has grown exponentially in recent years. Natural resources professionals in turn have been flooded with requests for information on native plants to use in various types of planting projects. Communities, schools, businesses, nonprofit organizations, watershed groups, local governments, state and federal agencies and many others are enhancing and restoring habitat, solving ecological problems, reducing maintenance, or just beautifying surroundings, all using locally native plants. Natural resources professionals, in turn, have been flooded with requests for information on native plants to use in various types of planting projects. There are many excellent resources available on native plants - some more technical than others, some more comprehensive than others. The frustration voiced most frequently by users is the lack of color photographs of the plants. After all, it is the striking visual quality of these plants that is their best “selling point.” This publication includes those pictures as well as user-friendly information on native species appropriate for planting in the Chesapeake Bay watershed and adjacent coastal regions. Although one guide cannot furnish the answers to every question, we have included as much useful information as possible in a limited space. Although the large number of species of plants included here may overwhelm some readers, this guide displays the great diversity of plants available. We hope you will bypass the over-used, non-native and sometimes invasive ornamental plants, and select the equally and often more attractive native plants. Pour through this guide the same way you look through nursery catalogs. Use it to plan and design your next planting, whether it’s a small corner of your front yard, a two-acre meadow seeding, or 100 acres of wetland restoration. 2 Native Plants for Wildlife Habitat and Conservation Landscaping: Chesapeake Bay Watershed Introduction “Conservation landscaping” refers to landscaping with specific goals of reducing pollution and improving the local environment. In the Chesapeake Bay watershed (the land that drains to the Bay and its many tributaries), this style of landscaping is sometimes called “BayScaping,” or beneficial landscaping. Conservation landscaping provides habitat for local and migratory animals, conserves native plants and improves water quality. Landowners also benefit as this type of landscaping reduces the time and expense of mowing, watering, fertilizing and treating lawn and garden areas, and offers greater visual interest than lawn. Beneficial landscaping can also be used

  • The Genus Baptisia in Alabama
    Woods, M. and A.R. Diamond, Jr. 2014. The genus Baptisia in Alabama. Phytoneuron 2014-83: 1–11. Published 12 August 2014. ISSN 2153 733X THE GENUS BAPTISIA (FABACEAE) IN ALABAMA MICHAEL WOODS [email protected] ALVIN R. DIAMOND , JR. Department of Biological and Environmental Sciences Troy University Troy, Alabama 36082 ABSTRACT The primary objectives of this project were to determine which species of Baptisia (Fabaceae) occur in Alabama and to report the county distribution of each. Baptisia , known commonly as wild or false indigo, is recognized as consisting of seven species in Alabama. The most common species are Baptisia alba, B. bracteata, and B. megacarpa. The less common species are B. lanceolata and B. albescens . The least common species are B. australis and B. perfoliata. The dichotomous key and descriptions we present are modifications from earlier authors; however, all measurements are based on morphological features of the vegetative and reproductive structures of the more than 200 specimens studied during this project. Data for the county-level distribution maps were compiled entirely from herbarium vouchers. Baptisia , commonly known as wild or false indigo, consists of 18 species, 7 infraspecific taxa, and 6 hybrids confined to the eastern USA and Canada (NatureServe 2013). Of these, 15 species have been reported from the southeastern USA (Isely 1990) and eight species and one infraspecific taxon have been reported from Alabama (Kral et al. 2011). The genus Baptisia Vent. is a member of the legume family Fabaceae (Leguminosae), tribe Thermopsideae, which includes six genera and approximately 45 species scattered through the Mediterranean and eastern North America (Turner 1981).

  • June Is for Baptisia, Mountain Laurel and Tulip Tree
    Printable PDF June is for Baptisia, Mountain Laurel and Tulip Tree Baptisia Baptisia spp. are native wildflowers in the Northeastern United States and are members of the pea family. Baptisia australis has blue flowers and is known as blue indigo, and Baptisia tinctoria has yellow flowers and is known as wild indigo. In garden centers, many cultivars of B. australis are available including ‘Cherries Jubilee’ which has yellow and pink bicolored flowers and ‘Carolina Moonlight' which has soft yellow flowers. Baptisia can get 3-5 feet tall and does best in full sun to partial shade. Above right- B. australis 'Cherries Jubilee' Baptisia Mountain Laurel Mountain laurel, Kalmia latifolia, the state flower of Connecticut, is native throughout eastern North America and occurs in the understory of a variety of habitat types and plant communities. In Connecticut it can commonly be found in mixed hardwood forests and in communities of white pines. There are many cultivars for landscape use including 'Bull's Eye', shown above. 'Sarah' (left) has red flower buds that open to bright pink flowers. Right- an unknown cultivar of pink mountain laurel. Mountain Laurel Tulip Tree Liriodendron tulipifera, or yellow poplar, is one of North America’s tallest native deciduous tree. It’s common name refers to its large, upright tulip-like flowers that bloom in spring. Flowers are yellow and have an orange band at the base of each petal, and they appear after leaves are fully open. Leaves are 4-lobed, large and somewhat flattened at the top. It is native in Connecticut appearing in localized areas in the wild.

  • Best Plants for Problem Clay Soils: Perennials
    Visit us on the Web: www.gardeninghelp.org Best Plants for Problem Clay Soils: Perennials Perennials Amsonia tabernaemontana — Bluestar This Missouri native features uptight clusters of light blue star-like flowers in late spring. Its narrow willow-like leaves turn yellow to peach-colored in fall. Bluestar may require staking if grown in shade and may be pruned after flowering to maintain a compact shape. It is most attractive when grown massed, in native plant gardens, shade gardens, open woodland areas, and borders. Asclepias incarnata — Swamp milkweed Despite its common name and native habitat, swamp milkweed may be grown in the average garden. Its fragrant white, pink or mauve flowers attract butterflies and mature into slender pods with silky-haired seeds. Swamp milkweed is a good choice for sunny, low or moist areas such as stream or pond banks, borders, and butterfly gardens. Baptisia australis — Blue false indigo Blue false indigo has beautiful purplish blue lupine-like flowers borne in erect spikes above the trifoliate leaves. The flowers mature into black seed pods that rattle in the breeze and are an interesting addition to dried flower arrangements. This herbaceous perennial does best in full sun as plants grown in part shade may grow taller and need support. Due to an extensive root system, blue false indigo will tolerate drought, but it should not be disturbed once it is established. Attractive in almost any situation including borders, prairies, cottage gardens, and native plant gardens, this plant is best used as a single specimen plant or in small groups. Baptisia australis var.

Water Well Rd., Salina, KS 67401, USA; [email protected] 2 Saint Louis University Department of Biology, 1008 Spring Ave., St. Louis, MO 63110, USA; [email protected] (C.C.); [email protected] (S.H.); [email protected] (A.J.M.) 3 Missouri Botanical Garden, 4500 Shaw Blvd. St. Louis, MO 63110, USA * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-785-823-5376 Received: 12 February 2018; Accepted: 4 March 2018; Published: 7 March 2018 Abstract: Annual cereal and legume grain production is dependent on inorganic nitrogen (N) and other fertilizers inputs to resupply nutrients lost as harvested grain, via soil erosion/runoff, and by other natural or anthropogenic causes. Temperate-adapted perennial grain legumes, though currently non-existent, might be uniquely situated as crop plants able to provide relief from reliance on synthetic nitrogen while supplying stable yields of highly nutritious seeds in low-input agricultural ecosystems. As such, perennial grain legume breeding and domestication programs are being initiated at The Land Institute (Salina, KS, USA) and elsewhere. This review aims to facilitate the development of those programs by providing criteria for evaluating potential species and in choosing candidates most likely to be domesticated and adopted as herbaceous, perennial, temperate-adapted grain legumes. We outline specific morphological and ecophysiological traits that may influence each candidate’s agronomic potential, the quality of its seeds and the ecosystem services it can provide.

  • BAPTISIA Genus Overview the Genus Baptisia Is a Member of The
    BAPTISIA Genus Overview The genus Baptisia is a member of the Fabaceae, the legume or pea family (some sources place it in Leguminosae). It is native to the Eastern United States, and from Minnesota, south to Texas. The genus name comes from a Greek root word meaning “to dip” in reference to the use of Baptisia as a substitute for indigo dye. This use is also evident in the common names for the genus; False Indigo and Wild Indigo. The genus contains upwards of 25 species, and has become of great interest to breeders within the last 20 years. Programs such as Chicagoland Grows® and Mt. Cuba Center’s Trial Garden have focused on introducing and testing new material. This interest has resulted in the release of many new cultivars that showcase the range of ornamental characteristics within the genus. Baptisia have showy pea-like flowers in purple, blue, lavender, white, and yellow. Baptisia is an herbaceous perennial, but its bushy habit allows it to be used as a stand-in for small shrubs. It is versatile enough to use in mixed borders, meadows, and formal gardens. All Baptisia have wildlife value as cover for songbirds, and some sources suggest the black fruit is also eaten by birds. Most have medium textured pea-like foliage in a soft blue- green color that adds contrast in the garden. Like most members of the Legume Family, deep roots make Baptisia drought tolerant, but sensitive to transplant as mature specimens. Presently there are 40 unique taxa within the living collection at the UDBG.
