  • Bee-Friendly Flowers: Aster
    Bee-Friendly Flowers: Aster Like fireworks to celebrate the coming of fall, the vibrant pinks, purples, and whites of the star flowers burst into bloom just as summer flowers fade. They are ubiquitous, lighting up meadows, woodlands, river bottoms, salt marshes, sand dunes, roadsides, and waste places. There are many native species of asters in North America, but it’s hard to put a precise number on them. The problem is that asters used to be classified with their own genus, but recent strides in DNA analysis have made scientists rethink where to put them. Plants that used to be lumped into the genus Aster are now split into Symphiotrichum, Eurybia, Solidago, and Machaeranthera just to name a few. Not all taxonomists are onboard with the change, so many botanical New England aster sources list more than one name for the same plant. Despite the confusion about what to call them, the variety of asters is enormous. Hybridization between species frequently occurs in the wild and there are a plethora of human-created hybrids and cultivars. Some have clouds of tiny flowers and some have blossoms as large as daisies. What they all have in common is that each aster flower is a composite of numerous disc and ray florets, which collectively give the appearance of a single large flower. The center holds the disc florets, which are tubular, house the nectar, and are usually yellow, orange, or brownish in color. Those near the bullseye location have both stamens and pistils and can provide pollen to visiting insects. The outer discs are all females and only have pistils to receive pollen.

  • "National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
    Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment.

  • Pollinator Gardening
    HOME & GARDEN INFORMATION http://www.clemson.edu/extension/hgic HGIC 1727 1-888-656-9988 CENTER Pollinator Gardening In 2007, the U.S. Senate designated a week in June as National Pollinator Week to increase the general public’s awareness of the importance of pollinators to food production. What is pollination? Pollination is the movement of pollen from the male flower part (anther) to the female flower part (stigma) on the same plant or between two plants of the same species. Proper pollination is critical for the development of many fruits and crops. These are the parts of a flower. Walker Massey, Clemson University A Monarch butterfly, bumble bee & honey bee on a Sunflower Approximately one third of the food that ends up on (Helianthus annuus). Millie Davenport, ©2015 HGIC, Clemson Extension a plate is there because of pollinators. When pollination is mentioned, most people think of Planting a pollinator garden will encourage the honey bees but there are so many other insects that presence of native pollinators. Like all living things, help get the job done such as native bees, beetles, pollinators need food, shelter, and water. Start by flies, wasps and butterflies. selecting a sunny area in the landscape and evaluating the area for existing nest sites, nectar Of these, bees are a very important group for sources and habitat. Then add plant species to the pollination because they deliberately harvest pollen area that will increase nectar and pollen sources for to feed their offspring; they visit similar flower pollinator insects through the spring, summer and species per foraging trip and accidentally transfer fall months.

  • Drosera Intermedia in a Northern Michigan Bog
    Assessment of microhabitat differences between Drosera rotundifolia and Drosera intermedia in a northern Michigan bog Andrew David University of Michigan Biological Station EEB 381, General Ecology August 19, 2010 Professor Cathy Bach Abstract The purpose of this study was to investigate microhabitat differences between two species of sundews, Drosera rotundifolia and Drosera intermedia. I tested several hypotheses: D. rotundifolia density increases with increasing height above a fixed low point, while D. intermedia density decreases with height; D. rotundifolia grows primarily on red Sphagnum moss, while D. intermedia grows primarily on green Sphagnum; the densities of both Drosera species increase with decreasing pH; the density of neither Drosera species is affected by water conductivity or dissolved oxygen content. At Mud Lake Bog in Cheboygan County, Michigan, I recorded the species of Drosera plants, as well as the height of the plants above a fixed low point and the color of Sphagnum moss on which they were growing. I also measured the pH, conductivity, and dissolved oxygen content of the water in which the plants were growing. Densities of both Drosera species decreased with increasing height, though the trend was stronger for D. intermedia. D. rotundifolia grew significantly more on red Sphagnum than did D. intermedia, while D. intermedia grew significantly more on green Sphagnum than did D. rotundifolia. D. rotundifolia density varied significantly with neither pH, conductivity, nor dissolved oxygen. D. intermedia density increased significantly with decreasing pH and increasing conductivity, but not with dissolved oxygen. My results were consistent with past research, and conclusively illustrated the differences in microhabitat preferences between the two Drosera species.

  • The Natural Communities of South Carolina
    THE NATURAL COMMUNITIES OF SOUTH CAROLINA BY JOHN B. NELSON SOUTH CAROLINA WILDLIFE & MARINE RESOURCES DEPARTMENT FEBRUARY 1986 INTRODUCTION The maintenance of an accurate inventory of a region's natural resources must involve a system for classifying its natural communities. These communities themselves represent identifiable units which, like individual plant and animal species of concern, contribute to the overall natural diversity characterizing a given region. This classification has developed from a need to define more accurately the range of natural habitats within South Carolina. From the standpoint of the South Carolina Nongame and Heritage Trust Program, the conceptual range of natural diversity in the state does indeed depend on knowledge of individual community types. Additionally, it is recognized that the various plant and animal species of concern (which make up a significant remainder of our state's natural diversity) are often restricted to single natural communities or to a number of separate, related ones. In some cases, the occurrence of a given natural community allows us to predict, with some confidence, the presence of specialized or endemic resident species. It follows that a reasonable and convenient method of handling the diversity of species within South Carolina is through the concept of these species as residents of a range of natural communities. Ideally, a nationwide classification system could be developed and then used by all the states. Since adjacent states usually share a number of community types, and yet may each harbor some that are unique, any classification scheme on a national scale would be forced to recognize the variation in a given community from state to state (or region to region) and at the same time to maintain unique communities as distinctive.
