Some of its gems are controversial due to their morphological structure and lack of knowledge. Here we are trying to describe Haridru as a separate drug with its medicinal importance. As we know Ayurveda is a life science which deals with about every Dravya present in universe. Haridru is a plant having medicinal importance in Ayurveda but generally explains as a variety of Kadamba or Kadamba itself in many classical texts. We are trying to compile the data which proves that Haridru is a separate drug neither Kadamba nor its variety on the basis of its morphology, properties & actions as per Ayurveda. This study may be helpful for further researchers for conducting their studies because it‟s controversial kind of drug having not much research on this.

RAMSOWER, Director, Columbus FRE~ooperative A~rieultural Extension Work-Acts of May 8 and June 30, 1914 Annual Flowers By VICTOR H. RIEB Floriculture Specialist, The Ohio State University A NNUAL garden :flowers are a necessity in the well planned .ti.garden for they offer many advantages not found in the peren­ nial and biennial :flowers. They are easily grown from seed, they produce effects the same season, and as a rule are less demanding in their requirements of growth. Being so easily grown from seed, they give a greater amount of effect for a small expenditure than any other type of :flower. The term "annual :flowers" is an extremely elastic one. We apply it to those plants of which the seed is sown in the spring, and blossoms produced the same season, the plants being killed when cold weather arrives. We also include in this group tender perennials such as the snapdragon and the pansy which, although they often live over, never amount to much the second year. There are many interesting ways in which annual :flowers may be used. This bulletin o:ff ers plans for various sized beds and sug­ gestions for group plantings. ANNUAL FLOWER BEDS There are many cases where a bed or a group of beds may be planted entirely with annual :flowers.

  • Keel, S. 2005. Caribbean Ecoregional Assessment Cuba Terrestrial
    CARIBBEAN ECOREGIONAL ASSESSMENT Cuba Terrestrial Report July 8, 2005 Shirley Keel INTRODUCTION Physical Features Cuba is the largest country in the Caribbean, with a total area of 110,922 km2. The Cuba archipelago consists of the main island (105,007 km2), Isla de Pinos (2,200 km2), and more than one thousand cays (3,715 km2). Cuba’s main island, oriented in a NW-SE direction, has a varied orography. In the NW the major mountain range is the Guaniguanico Massif stretching from west to east with two mountain chains of distinct geological ages and composition—Sierra de los Organos of ancient Jurassic limestone deposited on slaty sandstone, and Sierra del Rosario, younger and highly varied in geological structure. Towards the east lie the low Hills of Habana- Matanzas and the Hills of Bejucal-Madruga-Limonar. In the central part along the east coast are several low hills—from north to south the Mogotes of Caguaguas, Loma Cunagua, the ancient karstic range of Sierra de Cubitas, and the Maniabón Group; while along the west coast rises the Guamuhaya Massif (Sierra de Escambray range) and low lying Sierra de Najasa. In the SE, Sierra Maestra and the Sagua-Baracoa Massif form continuous mountain ranges. The high ranges of Sierra Maestra stretch from west to east with the island’s highest peak, Pico Real (Turquino Group), reaching 1,974 m. The complex mountain system of Sagua-Baracoa consists of several serpentine mountains in the north and plateau-like limestone mountains in the south. Low limestone hills, Sierra de Casas and Sierra de Caballos are situated in the northeastern part of Isla de Pinos (Borhidi, 1991).

Habib Yazdanshenas,1 Mehdi Kalagar,2 Mehdi Thus, present research was carried out to find the chorology, origin and diversity of 3 the understory plants species in Asalem’s forests, northern Iran. Basic studies were Moradipour Toularoud 1Faculty of Natural Resources, University of Tehran, Iran conducted on the geographic characteristics of the region. The direct visiting forests 2Research and Innovation Center of ETKA Organization, Iran method were selected for investigation of tree and understory plants species (herbs) 3Shafarood Forest Company’s Director of Research and which lasted of the year 2017 to 2018. Sampling of understory vegetation were done, Innovation, Iran recorded and identified based on available scientific references. The results showed that there are more than 152 species belonging to 124 genera and 61 families existed Correspondence: Habib Yazdanshenas, Faculty of Natural in forest understory. The largest families were Asteraceae, Rosaceae, Poaceae and Resources, University of Tehran, Iran +98137546924, Apiaceae with 17, 13, 11 and 10 species, respectively. Investigation of the geographical Email distribution of plant species indicated that there is a composition of Europe–Siberian, Iran-Turan, Mediterranean (and Polyregional and cosmo) plant elements. Plant life Received: January 01, 2019 | Published: March 27, 2019 forms by Raunkiaer method showed that phanerophytes with 28 % and Chameophytes = Therophytes with 26 % are the most frequent life forms in this area. Also, plant diversity was higher in areas with sparse tree cover, but in degraded areas or areas with high tree vegetation understory plants diversity was low.
