Related Species Russian Knapweed Acroptilon repens (L.) DC. Description Spotted knapweed is a biennial to short-lived perennial plant. Seedling cotyledons are ovate, with the first leaves lance-shaped, undivided, and hairless. (Young seedlings can appear grass-like.) Stems grow 1 to 4 feet tall, and are many-branched, with a single flower at the end of each branch.

Flower heads are urn-shaped, up to 1 inch wide, and composed of pink, purple, or sometimes white disk flowers. A key characteristic of spotted knap- weed is the dark comb-like fringe on the tips of the bracts, found just below the flower petals. These dark-tipped bracts give this plant its “spotted” appearance. Russian knapweed is a creeping perennial plant that is extensively branched, with solitary urn-shaped pink or purple flower heads at the end of each branch. Similar in appearance to spotted knapweed, Russian knapweed can be distinguished by its slightly smaller flower heads, flower head bracts covered in light hairs, with papery tips, and scaly dark brown or black rhizomes, which have a burnt appearance. Family: Asteraceae Spotted Knapweed Leaves and stems of both spotted and Russian knapweeds are covered in fine hairs, giving the plants a grayish cast.

  • Chrysanthemum
    Plant of the Week Chrysanthemum Mother’s Day is celebrated in Australia on the second Sunday in May. For most of the early years of the last century, it was seen as a day on which “Mum” had a day off work, to be thoroughly spoiled by husband and children. Breakfast in bed was usually followed by attendance at church, with all wearing white flowers, often Gardenias. Later, Chrysanthemums became a popular Mother’s Day gift. Sellers of Chrysanthemum flowers, known as the “bucket brigade”, could be found on every street corner and every lay by for miles around Sydney. The current concept that an expensive gift must be bought for mother on Mother’s Day has evolved in relatively recent years, a devious marketing ploy to which most of us have succumbed! Prior to the establishment of Macquarie University, the land which is now campus, was farmed by (mostly) Italian market gardeners. In addition to fruit, and vegetables, they grew flowers, including Chrysanthemums for the Sydney flower market. Later, on the site now occupied by MGSM, groundsman David Melville grew flowers, including Chrysanthemums, for university administrative offices and library. jú huā The Chrysanthemum (菊花) has great significance in Chinese culture where it is known, together with orchid, bamboo and plum blossom, as one of the “Four Gentlemen” 四君子(Si Jun Zi)2. Chrysanthemum is first recorded in Chinese literature in the 7th Century BC when the yellow flowers were used in Chinese traditional medicine. Drinking Chrysanthemum tea was seen to promote longevity, perhaps even immortality. The Chrysanthemum is also considered to symbolise the Confucian scholar.

Handa) Abstract To diversify flower color and growth habit of marguerite (Argyranthemum frutescens), intergeneric crossing was carried out using marguerite as the seed parent and annual chrysanthemum (Glebionis carinatum) or crown daisy (G. coronaria) as the pollen parent. After cross-pollination, seedlings were successfully obtained by applying ovule culture. Ovule culture-derived plants showed novel characteristics in flower shape and color (orange, reddish brown, or wisteria pink) that are not observed in marguerite. Some also showed novel flowering habits such as perpetual flowering. The results indicate that these ovule culture-derived plants were intergeneric hybrids and that the hybrids obtained in the present study may be useful for further breeding of marguerite, especially for introducing valuable characteristics such as a wide range of flower color. Key words: Argyranthemum, Glebionis, intergeneric hybridization, ovule culture. Marguerite (Argyranthemum frutescens) is a perennial germplasm for the breeding of marguerite, but most of plant native to the Canary Islands, Spain (Bramwell et them have white flowers and diversity in flower color and al. 2001) and Madeira, Portugal (Press et al.

  • Plant Gems from China©
    1 Plant Gems from China© Donghui Peng1, Longqing Chen2 and Mengmeng Gu3 1College of Landscape Architecture and Horticulture, Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University, Fuzhou, Fujian Province 350002, PRC 2College of Forestry and Horticulture, Huazhong Agriculture University, Wuhan, Hubei Province 430070, PRC 3Department of Horticultural Sciences, Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service, College Station, TX 77843, USA Email: [email protected] INTRODUCTION A lot of plants native in China thrive in landscapes across the U.S. Chinese plant germplasm has been continuously introduced to the U.S., and used in breeding and selection. So many new cultivars with Chinese genetics have been introduced in the landscape plant market. The Chinese love plants and particularly enjoy ten “traditionally famous flowers”: lotus (Nelumbo nucifera), sweet olive (Osmanthus frangrans), peony (Paeonia suffruticosa), azalea (Azalea spp.), chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum spp.), Mei flower (Prunus mume), daffodil (Narcissus spp.), rose (Rosa spp.), camellia (Camellia spp.) and cymbidium (Cymbidium spp.). Public and university breeders have focused on these taxa. In addition, many species and cultivars commonly grown in China may be of interest to growers and landscape professionals in the U.S, which this manuscript will be focused on. PLANT SPECIES AND CULTIVARS Sweet olive (Osmanthus fragrans). There are mainly four types of sweet olives, Auranticus Group, Luteus Group, Albus Group, orange and Semperflorens Group. Ever-blooming sweet 1 2 olives have peak blooming in the fall like the others, and continue for about six months although not as profusely. Recently there are three variegated cultivars: ‘Yinbian Caiye’ with white leaf margins mature leaves and red/white/green on new growth, ‘Yintian Cai’ with red-margined maroon leaves maturing to white-margined green leaves, and ‘Pearl Color’ with pink new growth.

BAILL.: A FORGOTTEN MEDICINAL PLANT Mohammad-Bagher Hassanpouraghdam1, Seied-Jalal Tabatabaie2, Hossein Nazemiyeh3, Lamia Vojodi4, Mohammad-Ali Aazami1, Atefeh Mohajjel Shoja5 1Department of Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Maragheh, Iran. 2Department of Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Tabriz, Iran. 3Drug Applied Research Center, Faculty of Pharmacy, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Iran. 4Department of Plant Sciences, Faculty of Natural Sciences, University of Tabriz, Iran E-mail: [email protected] Summary. Costmary (Chrysanthemum balsamita (L.) Baill. syn. Tanacetum balsamita L.) is one of the most important medicinal and aromatic plants of Azerbaijan provinces in Iran. This plant has been used for more than several centuries as flavor, carminative and cardiotonic in traditional and folk medicine of Iran, and some parts of the world such as the Mediterranean, Balkan and South American countries, but there is scarce information about this plant. In most substances and, for majority of folk and medical applications, costmary is harvested from the natural habitats. This trend i.e. harvests from natural habitats and different ecological conditions lead to the production of different medicinal preparations because of the divergent intrinsic active principle profiles of different plant origins. In addition, harvest from natural habitats can cause deterioration of genetic resources of plant and, the result would be imposing of irreversible destructive effects on the ecological balance of flora and ecosystems. Taking into account the widespread uses of costmary and its preparations in most countries especially in North-West of Iran and Turkey, also because of limited scientific literature for Chrysanthemum balsamita (L.) Baill., this article will survey the literature for different characteristics of costmary and its essential oil for the first time.

  • Chrysanthemum Agronomic Program
    CHRYSANTHEMUM AGRONOMIC PROGRAM Garden mums are most often produced outdoors and can be subject to weather conditions favorable for insects and diseases. An agronomic program can provide a guide for properly using different products to control primary insect and disease problems. This program includes a comprehensive product rotation to prevent infestations and proactively manage against resistance. COMMON INSECTS Thrips, aphids and worms are common insects that can affect garden mums in production. Controlling thrips and aphids is especially important to prevent viruses. Thrips are a vector for Impatiens Necrotic Spot Virus (INSV) and Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus (TSWV). Aphids can spread Chrysanthemum Virus B (CVB). COMMON DISEASES Root and stem diseases caused by Pythium and Fusarium spp. pathogens are likely to emerge under high temperatures and moist conditions. Roots can be compromised by repeated wetting and drying resulting in wounds, which increase the risk of infection. Growing media with high soluble salts can also cause root burn and make plants more susceptible to attack. Frequent rain can spur infections by Pythium spp. Affected plants will appear pale green and show signs of wilt during the warm times of the day, recovering in the evening. As the disease progresses, plants become stunted and fail to recover.
