  • Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
    Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page. Basal Angiosperms (ANITA grade) Amborellales Amborellaceae, sole family, the earliest branch of flowering plants, a shrub native to New Caledonia – Amborella Nymphaeales Hydatellaceae – aquatics from Australasia, previously classified as a grass Cabombaceae (water shield – Brasenia, fanwort – Cabomba) Nymphaeaceae (water lilies – Nymphaea; pond lilies – Nuphar) Austrobaileyales Schisandraceae (wild sarsaparilla, star vine – Schisandra; Japanese

  • Aeschynanthus Pulcher Lipstick Plant LIPSTICK PLANT
    The Gardener’s Resource 435 W. Glenside Ave. Since 1943 Glenside, PA 19038 215-887-7500 Aeschynanthus pulcher Lipstick Plant LIPSTICK PLANT Lipstick plants are easy indoor flowering houseplants that when given the right amount of light and water, they produce numerous red or orange small tubular flowers that resemble a tube of lipstick. Not only are the flowers colorful, the leaves can be light green, dark green or green and maroon. Light: The Lipstick vine will not bloom without adequate light. They require very bright, indirect light. Avoid placing this plant in full shade or full sun. Direct sun will burn the leaves. The plant needs bright light for a portion of the day, but not all day long. Water: If you allow the top 25% of the soil to dry out before watering, this plant will flower more frequently and more abundant. If the leaves appear soft and shriveled, give it more water. These plants will also lose green leaves TIPS: when over-watered. • Lipstick plants like warm temperatures between 75-85°F. : Fertilizer every other week in the Fertilizing • Prefers high humidity, but will do well in Spring and Summer and only monthly in the basic household humidity too. Fall and Winter with a houseplant food high in • Trim the long vines to prevent the plant phosphorous. Always dilute the fertilizer to ½ from becoming thin and straggly. the recommended strength. • Lipstick Plants are Non-Poisonous. • Keep a lipstick plant in a small pot will help it produce more flowers. When put into a large container, instead of producing flowers it grows more leaves.

  • Survey of Ornamental Ferns, Their Morphology and Uses for Environmental Protection, Improvement and Management
    Ife Journal of Science vol. 14, no. 2 (2012) 245 SURVEY OF ORNAMENTAL FERNS, THEIR MORPHOLOGY AND USES FOR ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION, IMPROVEMENT AND MANAGEMENT. Oloyede, F. A. Department of Botany, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife. E-mail: [email protected] (Received: April 2012; Accepted: August 2012) ABSTRACT A survey of ornamental ferns with potentials for environmental protection, improvement and management was conducted at Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria and villages around it between 2008-2012. The collections were characterized morphologically. This was with a view to creating awareness of the importance of ornamental ferns for environmental management and economic values. Ferns were collected from humid forest, rainforest and re-growth forest vegetation zones, open bare land, around homes, offices and road sides. All the ferns collected were raised at the Department of Botany, OAU, Ile-Ife. Morphological, reproductive and growth parameters were observed, documented for their ornamental values and for their relevance in environmental protection, improvement and management. The result showed that there were a lot of variations in the shape and type of apex, frond length and diameters; leaflet texture, size and shapes in all the ferns studied. There were little variations in the structures of rhizome except in Phymatodes scholopendria with long-creeping, climbing, succulent rhizome. The only leaflet with petiole was found in Adiantum veneris-capillus. They have shoot and root biomass which are directly involved in checking wind and soil erosion by covering and holding soils together. These ornamental ferns were found to have much value for landscaping and aesthetic purposes but they were found in few villages with little or no attention.

With 3 figures Temporal and spatial origin of Gesneriaceae in the New World inferred from plastid DNA sequences MATHIEU PERRET1*, ALAIN CHAUTEMS1, ANDRÉA ONOFRE DE ARAUJO2 and NICOLAS SALAMIN3,4 1Conservatoire et Jardin botaniques de la Ville de Genève, Ch. de l’Impératrice 1, CH-1292 Chambésy, Switzerland 2Centro de Ciências Naturais e Humanas, Universidade Federal do ABC, Rua Santa Adélia, 166, Bairro Bangu, Santo André, Brazil 3Department of Ecology and Evolution, University of Lausanne, CH-1015 Lausanne, Switzerland 4Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics, Quartier Sorge, CH-1015 Lausanne, Switzerland Received 15 December 2011; revised 3 July 2012; accepted for publication 18 August 2012 Gesneriaceae are represented in the New World (NW) by a major clade (c. 1000 species) currently recognized as subfamily Gesnerioideae. Radiation of this group occurred in all biomes of tropical America and was accompanied by extensive phenotypic and ecological diversification. Here we performed phylogenetic analyses using DNA sequences from three plastid loci to reconstruct the evolutionary history of Gesnerioideae and to investigate its relationship with other lineages of Gesneriaceae and Lamiales. Our molecular data confirm the inclusion of the South Pacific Coronanthereae and the Old World (OW) monotypic genus Titanotrichum in Gesnerioideae and the sister-group relationship of this subfamily to the rest of the OW Gesneriaceae. Calceolariaceae and the NW genera Peltanthera and Sanango appeared successively sister to Gesneriaceae, whereas Cubitanthus, which has been previously assigned to Gesneriaceae, is shown to be related to Linderniaceae. Based on molecular dating and biogeographical reconstruction analyses, we suggest that ancestors of Gesneriaceae originated in South America during the Late Cretaceous.

    ATOLL RESEARCH BULLETIN NO. 503 THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF MAJURO ATOLL, REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS BY NANCY VANDER VELDE ISSUED BY NATIONAL MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION WASHINGTON, D.C., U.S.A. AUGUST 2003 Uliga Figure 1. Majuro Atoll THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF MAJURO ATOLL, REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS ABSTRACT Majuro Atoll has been a center of activity for the Marshall Islands since 1944 and is now the major population center and port of entry for the country. Previous to the accompanying study, no thorough documentation has been made of the vascular plants of Majuro Atoll. There were only reports that were either part of much larger discussions on the entire Micronesian region or the Marshall Islands as a whole, and were of a very limited scope. Previous reports by Fosberg, Sachet & Oliver (1979, 1982, 1987) presented only 115 vascular plants on Majuro Atoll. In this study, 563 vascular plants have been recorded on Majuro. INTRODUCTION The accompanying report presents a complete flora of Majuro Atoll, which has never been done before. It includes a listing of all species, notation as to origin (i.e. indigenous, aboriginal introduction, recent introduction), as well as the original range of each. The major synonyms are also listed. For almost all, English common names are presented. Marshallese names are given, where these were found, and spelled according to the current spelling system, aside from limitations in diacritic markings. A brief notation of location is given for many of the species. The entire list of 563 plants is provided to give the people a means of gaining a better understanding of the nature of the plants of Majuro Atoll.

    lam e Violet house plant suitable for Alaska's long winter, low light conditions D.H. Dinkel A house plant suitable for Alaska's Flame Violetlong winter, low light conditions D.H. DINKEL Associate Professor, Plant Physiology Episcia (Flame Violet) has proven to be an excellent plant for office and home conditions in Alaska where sunlight is limited during the long winters. A native of Central and South America, Episcia is a tropical pubescent creeper or trailer. This attractive cousin of the African-violet in the family Gesneriaceae is suitable for pedestals, hanging baskets, or pots. Figure 2. Episcia reptansgrown in a greenhouse in a hanging basket that is completely covered by the plant. The creep­ ing nature of the long stolons makes this an ideal plant for hanging baskets. COVER PHOTO Figure 1. Episcia reptans,the true Flame Violet, grown under normal winter office lighting and temperature. The leaves are larger and more showy on this plant than they are on the plant shown in Figure 2, which was grown in the greenhouse under higher light intensity. Figure 3. This hanging arrange­ ment of som e different kinds of Episcia give a nice variation. The small-leaved one is Episcia dianthi- flora, the one with the light-colored foliage is Episcia cupreata,and the other is Episcia reptans.A ll o f these came from a packet of mixed seed that was obtained from a national seed company. Tests at the Institute of Agricultural Sciences showed that plants had larger, more attractive leaves when grown under conditions of normal winter office lighting than when grown in the higher light intensity of summer greenhouses or under fluorescent lights of high intensity.
