The species peony collection is also growing and we hope Iris Double Lament Lilium Friso to have sufficient to offer more varieties soon. Things never stand still and one of the consequences of not doing Chelsea is that we no longer need some of the large show plants so this year we are able to offer the evergreen Dianella tasmanica (page 12) with its extraordinary blue berries. Some of our plants did not enjoy the wonderful summer as much as we did but the Schizostylis were an eye opener. They are stream side plants from southern Africa so we think of them as wanting dampish soils but forget that The youngest grandson - but Eucomis pole-evansii is winning! they experience seasonal rainfall and very hot summers. They literally blossomed and are still in full flower as I varieties are grown in an open field so we know they are write this in mid November. They are perfect to keep the hardy and we lift plants for sale. There are many more interest going into autumn I grow them in my dry ditch varieties on the website. with iris and hostas. -

Ethnobotanical Survey of Medicinal Dietary Plants Used by the Naxi
Zhang et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2015) 11:40 DOI 10.1186/s13002-015-0030-6 JOURNAL OF ETHNOBIOLOGY AND ETHNOMEDICINE RESEARCH Open Access Ethnobotanical survey of medicinal dietary plants used by the Naxi People in Lijiang Area, Northwest Yunnan, China Lingling Zhang1,2, Yu Zhang1, Shengji Pei1, Yanfei Geng1,3, Chen Wang1 and Wang Yuhua1* Abstract Background: Food and herbal medicinal therapy is an important aspect of Chinese traditional culture and traditional Chinese medicine. The Naxi are indigenous residents of the Ancient Tea Horse Road, and the medicine of the Naxi integrates traditional Chinese, Tibetan, and Shamanic medicinal systems, however, little is known about the medicinal dietary plants used by the Naxi people, or their ethnobotanical knowledge. This is the first study to document the plant species used as medicinal dietary plants by the Naxi of the Lijiang area. Methods: Ethnobotancial surveys were conducted with 89 informants (35 key informants) from 2012 to 2013. Three different Naxi villages were selected as the study sites. Literature research, participatory investigation, key informant interviews, and group discussions were conducted to document medicinal dietary plants and the parts used, habitat, preparation methods, and function of these plants. The fidelity level (FL) was used to determine the acceptance of these medicinal dietary plants. Voucher specimens were collected for taxonomic identification. Results: Surveys at the study sites found that 41 ethnotaxa corresponded to 55 botanical taxa (species, varieties, or subspecies) belonging to 24 families and 41 genera. Overall, 60 % of documented plants belonged to seven botanical families. The most common families were Compositae (16.4 %) and Rosaceae (10.9 %). -

A total of 61 different medicinal plants were recorded from 52 species identified belonging to 37 different families. Preference ranking of plant species helped to validate the efficacy of the plants used for treating diseases. It is also observed that a single plant species is used to treat single to multiple diseases. -

A Preliminary Species-Level Phylogeny of the Alpine Ginger Roscoea: Implications for Speciation

E-mail: [email protected]. Tel.: 86-871-65030660. Received 13 December 2016; Accepted 1 March 2017; Article first published online xx Month 2017 Abstract Speciation, the evolutionary process forming new species, is a key mode generating biodiversity on the Earth. In this study, we produced a species-level phylogeny of Roscoea using one nuclear ribosomal and two chloroplast DNA fragments based on Bayesian inference and maximum likelihood. We then explored the possible speciation processes using the species-level phylogeny and the heterozygous sites in the nuclear DNA. The incongruence between nuclear and chloroplast phylogenies, and several heterozygous sites in the nuclear DNA, suggested that R. auriculata might have a hybrid origin with R. purpurea and R. alpina being two possible parental progenitors; however, one alternative possibility through incomplete lineage sorting cannot be ruled out. In addition, R. kunmingensis likely originated from R. tibetica Batalin through the process of “budding speciation”. These results provided a valuable framework to draw testable hypotheses for future in-depth comparative studies to further our understanding of the underpinning speciation and adaptation mechanisms that contribute to ultrahigh biodiversity in the Himalayas and the Hengduan Mountains. -
