Indoor Plants Or Houseplants
Visit us on the Web: www.gardeninghelp.org Indoor Plants or Houseplants Over the past twenty years houseplants have grown in popularity. Offered in a wide variety of sizes, shapes, colors and textures, houseplants beautify our homes and help soften our environment. They have been scientifically proven to improve our health by lowering blood pressure and removing pollutants from the air we breathe. When selecting a houseplant, choose reputable suppliers who specialize in growing houseplants. Get off to a good start by thoroughly examining each plant. Watch for brown edges and spindly growth with elongated stems and large gaps between new leaves. Inspect leaves and stem junctions for signs of insect or disease problems. Check any support stakes to make sure they are not hiding broken stems or branches. Finally, make sure the plant is placed in an area that suits its optimal requirements for light, temperature and humidity. Where to Place Your House Plants With the exception of the very darkest areas, you can always find a houseplant with growth requirements to match the environmental conditions in your home. The most important factors are light intensity and duration. The best way to determine the intensity of light at a window exposure area is to measure it with a light meter. A light meter measures light in units called foot-candles. One foot-candle is the amount of light from a candle spread over a square foot of surface area. Plants that prefer low light may produce dull, lifeless-looking leaves when exposed to bright light. Bright light can also cause leaf spots or brown-tipped scorched margins.

Vol. 54, No. 5 September - October 2017 www.hcsstex.org 1 Edithcolea grandis by Karla Halpaap-Wood Vol. 54, No. 5 September - October 2017 From the editor What an exciting and terrifying past week Harvey brought us. We will all gain some knowledge how much water our plants can take, and I am hoping for some member’s reports for the next KK. Karla Halpaap-Wood Membership Kathy Fewox Twenty-two members attended the July 26th meeting of HCSS. Among that number was new member Erin Eckert. Welcome to HCSS, Erin! Joining us were three guests, Kimberly Merchant, Troy Merchant, and Te- resa S. Garcia. Troy and Kimberly donated an African hosta bulb with plant attached, which we gave to new member Erin Eckert. On August 23rd our meeting was attended by twenty-two members. We also had four guests: Annie Back- haus, Teresa S. Garcia, Sasha Rios, and Jorge Rios. Milton Pierson donated two nice cuttings of something big and sticky, which were given away to the first person who wanted them. I failed to note the name, but I believe it was one of our guests. I apologize to everyone concerned for doing such a bad job of note-taking. HCSS member Tom Cardinal very generously gave Mercer Arboretum some Agave americana variegata plants to replace the ones they lost in the Tax Day flood. Agnes Chadick celebrated her 92nd birthday on July 31st. Happy birthday, Agnes! On August 26-27, Hurricane Harvey brought rain and destruction to Houston, bringing the city to a halt in many ways, and for many days.

Tylophora Indica Are Used for the Treatment Of
P S. Jakhi Family Asclepiadaceae is commonly known as milk weed family, is a former plant family which is now treated as a subfamily (subfamily Asclepiadaideae) in the family Apocynaceae (Bruyns 2000, APG IV). They form a group of perennial herbs twining shrubs, rarely trees but notably also contain a significant number of leafless stem succulents. The name comes from the genus Asclepias (milkweeds). Calotropis, Asclepias, Stapelia, Tylophora are the sole members of the family. P . S. Jakhi The family comprises of about 175 genera and 2,200 species all over the world, distributed in tropical and subtropical regions . In India the family Asclepiadaceae is represented by about 53 genera and about 250 species. P S. Jakhi The members of Asclepiadaceae family are mostly herbs (Asclepias) or sometimes shrubs (Calotropis procera) or woody climbers (Tylophora, Ceropegia), rarely small trees (Calotropis gignata) ,with milky sap or often cactus like habit (Stapelia). P S. Jakhi Calotropis procera P S. Jakhi Stem The stem of a plant contain milky juice present in long branching laticiferous tubes. Stem is erect (Calotropis) or twining (Bidaria), branched, herbaioud or woody, solid, cylindrical or angular with milky sap, rarely hairy (Calotropis). The vascular bundles in the stems are generally bicollateral . Stem of Calotropis procera P S. Jakhi LEAF:- The leaves are mostly opposite decussate (Calotropis), rarely alternate or whorled, simple, petiolate or subsessile, exstipulate, entire at margins,generally waxy on both surface (Calotropis). In xerophytic secies such as Stapelia, the leaves are reduced to scales or spines, the leaves of Asclepias curassavica are petiolate,whereas they are semi-amplexicaul in Calotropis procera, The petiole is pulvinous in Calotropis procera Cryptostagia grandiflora .

EAST AFRICAN SUCCULENTS. the Ceropegieae Are Allied to The
EAST AFRICAN SUCCULENTS. PART V. By PETER R. O. BALLY, Botanist, Coryndon Memorial Museum. (DRAWINGS AND PHOTOGRAPHS BY THE AUTHOR.) PUBLISHED BY PERMISSION OF THE MUSEUM TRUSTEES. N.O. ASCLEPIADACEAE.-CONTINUED. TRIBE: CEROPEGIEAE. The Ceropegieae are allied to the Stapelieae. Succulence is not common in the tribe, and only the genus Ceropegia merits description in this paper. Genus Ceropegia. The distribution of this genus ranges from the warmer parts of China, India, throughout Africa, the Mascarene Islands and to Australia. In Thiselton-Dyer's Flora of Tropical Africa, 4, 1: 390-402 and 620-622 (1904), fifty-nine species are recorded and another fifty have been added since that date; others have also been discovered that have not yet been described. In habit the East African ceropegias are not very conspi• cuous and it requires a trained eye to detect them; most of them are slender, trailing or climbing plants, others are erect herbs. Most species are herbaceous-often with large, underground tubers-others develop succulent stems and leaves; about eleven are recorded as succulent. A complete survey of the East African species would form an interesting study, but such an undertaking will have to be postponed until after the war, when overseas collections and publications will again be available for consultation. The present paper is concerned only with the succulent species occurring in East Africa. The Ceropegieae are remarkable for their extraordinary flowers which-unlike other flowers-never appear to be fully expanded. A long, closed, often inflated tube rises, high above the corona; this tube terminates in five lobes which are often of considerable length.
