Plant List 2016
Established 1990 PLANT LIST 2016 European mail order website www.crug-farm.co.uk CRÛG FARM PLANTS • 2016 Welcome to our 2016 list hope we can tempt you with plenty of our old favourites as well as some exciting new plants that we have searched out on our travels. There has been little chance of us standing still with what has been going on here in 2015. The year started well with the birth of our sixth grandchild. January into February had Sue and I in Colombia for our first winter/early spring expedition. It was exhilarating, we were able to travel much further afield than we had previously, as the mountainous areas become safer to travel. We are looking forward to working ever closer with the Colombian institutes, such as the Medellin Botanic Gardens whom we met up with. Consequently we were absent from the RHS February Show at Vincent Square. We are finding it increasingly expensive participating in the London shows, while re-branding the RHS February Show as a potato event hardly encourages our type of customer base to visit. A long standing speaking engagement and a last minute change of date, meant that we missed going to Fota near Cork last spring, no such problem this coming year. We were pleasantly surprised at the level of interest at the Trgrehan Garden Rare Plant Fair, in Cornwall. Hopefully this will become an annual event for us, as well as the Cornwall Garden Society show in April. Poor Sue went through the wars having to have a rush hysterectomy in June, after some timely results revealed future risks. -
Antibacterial Properties of Passiflora Foetida L. – a Common Exotic Medicinal Plant

(stinking passion flower) is an exotic medicinal vine. The antibacterial properties of leaf and fruit (ethanol and acetone) extracts were screened against four human pathogenic bacteria i.e. Pseudomonas putida, Vibrio cholerae, Shigella flexneri and Streptococcus pyogenes by well-in agar method. The results showed the leaf extract having remarkable activity against all bacterial pathogens compared to fruits. This study supports, the traditional medicines (herbal extracts) to cure many diseases like diarrhea, intestinal tract, throat, ear infections, fever and skin diseases. Key words: Passiflora foetida, antibacterial activity, ethanol and acetone extracts, human pathogenic bacteria. INTRODUCTION Human infections particularly those involving micro- many unsafe and fatal side effects have recently been organisms i.e. bacteria, fungi, viruses, nematodes, they reported (Ikegami et al., 2003; Izzo, 2004). -

Plants from the family Passiflora have been used in standard drug by various social orders. Flavonoids, glycosides, alkaloids, phenolic blends and eccentric constituents have been represented as the major phyto- constituents of the Passiflora spe-cies. This overview delineates the morphology, standard and tales uses, phyto- constituents and pharmacological reports of the prominent kinds of the sort Passiflora. Diverse virgin areas of investigation on the kinds of this sort have been highlighted to examine, detach and recognize the therapeutically huge phyto- constituents which could be utilized to help various diseases impacting the mankind. The objective of the current examination was to concentrate all Passiflora species. The sythesis of each specie presented particularities; this legitimizes the essentialness of studies concentrating on the phenolic bit of different Passiflora species. Flavones C- glycosides were recognized in all concentrates, and are found as the central constituents in P. -
Promesas De Las Pasifloras
El trópico americano es particularmente rico en especies de frutas promisorias Page 1 sur 26 Promesas de las pasifloras Geo Coppens d’Eeckenbrugge, CIRAD-FLHOR, Boulevard de la Lironde, TA50/PS4, Montpellier, Francia Resumen Después de una revisión histórica del cultivo comercial de pasifloras, se han inventariado 81 especies del género Passiflora con fruto comestible con base en experiencia de campo y en la literatura. Este número es muy superior a las estimaciones anteriores de 50 à 60 especies. Estas especies se concentran en los subgéneros Passiflora (43), Tacsonia y Manicata (17), Distephana (5), Decaloba (13), mientras que los subgéneros Dysosmia, Dysosmioides y Tacsonioides cuentan con una. Dentro del subgénero Passiflora, las series más promisorias son Incarnatae (5), incluyendo las dos formas de P. edulis y P. incarnata; Tiliifoliae (9), organizadas alrededor de las granadillas, con seis especies similares a P. ligularis, y de la gulupa, P. maliformis; Quadrangulares, con el maracuyá dulce (P. alata) y la badea (P. quadrangularis) formando un solo acervo genético; Laurifoliae, con 14 especies frutales superiores y muy similares, para evaluar; Lobatae, con 6 especies que podrían aportar genes de resistencia para las principales especies económicas, servirles de patrón, o desarrollarse como especies de doble uso (frutal y ornamental). El subgénero Tacsonia ofrece buenas posibilidades para mejorar y diversificar las curubas comercializadas: un grupo de 8 especies y variedades botánicas se puede explotar en el mejoramiento de las curubas actualmente cultivadas; además se podría rescatar el cultivo de la curuba roja y de la curuba antioqueña, basando su mejoramiento en amplios recursos genéticos (respectivamente 5 y 3 especies), así como el de la granadilla de montaña (P. -
