    Culture Notes for Spring Flowering Bulbs 1 ALLIUMS Alliums Are Easy to Grow

    P.O.Box 369, New Norfolk, 7140, Tasmania, Australia Ph: (03) 6261 3153 [email protected] www.vogelvry.com.au Tulipa ‘World Peace’ CULTURE NOTES FOR SPRING FLOWERING BULBS 1 ALLIUMS Alliums are easy to grow. Plant bulbs just below the surface in a sunny position in a well drained soil. Alliums may be dug and stored like onions after leaves die down. ALSTROEMERIA Alstroemeria tubers require a moist, well drained soil and should be planted in a sunny or semi-shaded position with mulch added in warm climates to keep the root system cool. The tubers need to be planted as soon as possible after arrival and should never Allium Ampeloprasum be allowed to dry out. Excellent cut flowers which grow to a height of 100 cm. AMARYLLIS Belladonna Lilies Grow these in a moderately fertile, well- drained soil in full sun. Plant bulbs shallow with the neck just below the surface and water moderately during growing season. These need to be protected from severe frost. Keep bulbs dry while dormant in late summer. These bulbs are excellent for naturalising in the garden and require minimal care once established. ANEMONES These are ideal for mass planting. The small bulbs may be soaked in cold water for 24 hours prior to planting 7-10 cm deep in mainly full sun. Easy to grow as a colourful ‘filler’ in any garden. BRODIAE Queen Fabiola Plant 7 cm deep in full sun or partial shade. Easy to grow. CHIONODOXA Glory in the Snow Plant 10 cm deep and 15 cm apart either in full sun or semi-shaded position.
  • Season Extenders in the Flower Garden by Pat Holloway and Pat Wagner

    Season Extenders in the Flower Garden by Pat Holloway and Pat Wagner

    University of Alaska Fairbanks School of Natural Resources and Extension Georgeson Botanical Notes No. 57 (1993) - Revised 2014 Season Extenders in the Flower Garden by Pat Holloway and Pat Wagner No one gardening in Alaska needs to be reminded that the growing season is very short, especially after the summer of 1992 when the frost-free season at the Garden extended only from May 16 to September 10, and the snow-free season was the shortest ever recorded. Every year we survey the Garden after our first hard frost to identify flowers that still look good and can provide a bit of color even as the days get shorter and we begin to anticipate the first snowfall. On the following page is a list of annuals and perennials that sur- vived the first severe frost on September 10 with an overnight low of 13°F (-10°C). In some instances, only the foliage survived, but they still provided a bit of green color at season’s end. Prior to September 10, temperatures at or slightly below 32°F (0°C) were recorded on three dates, but damage was negligible. Although the flower beds are located fairly close together on a gently sloping hillside, we noticed some differences in damage in the various beds. Flowers in one bed survived the frost, whereas plants of the same species in an adjacent bed were killed. This may be related to differences in cultivars since we did not repeat cultivars in different beds, but it also could be related to slight differences in microclimate from one bed to another.
  • "National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."

    "National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."

    Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment.

  • Postharvest Storage and Handling of Ranunculus Asiaticus Dried Tuberous Roots

    Postharvest Storage and Handling of Ranunculus Asiaticus Dried Tuberous Roots

    POSTHARVEST STORAGE AND HANDLING OF RANUNCULUS ASIATICUS DRIED TUBEROUS ROOTS A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Christopher Brian Cerveny January 2011 © 2011 Christopher Brian Cerveny POSTHARVEST STORAGE AND HANDLING OF RANUNCULUS ASIATICUS DRIED TUBEROUS ROOTS Christopher B. Cerveny, Ph. D. Cornell University 2011 Ranunculus asiaticus is an ornamental flowering plant with potential to be more widely used by the floriculture industry. Unfortunately, growers are faced with many challenges when producing these plants from their dry tuberous roots following storage; including poor sprouting, non-uniform growth, disease issues upon planting, as well as inconsistent cultural recommendations and lack of proper storage and handling protocols. Several experiments were conducted to determine the influence of temperature and relative humidity during storage on growth and quality of R. asiaticus plants. From our experiments it can be concluded that R. asiaticus tubers store best under low relative humidity and cool temperatures (above freezing). Also important from a storage perspective, unlike other flower bulbs, we show that R. asiaticus tuberous roots are not susceptible to ethylene damage while in the dry state. Prior to planting, tubers should be submerged in room-temperature water at around 20 oC, for 24 h, and then provided a fungicide treatment. We have shown that proper hydration temperature for R. asiaticus tuberous roots is critical for optimal growth. By following the protocol generated from our experiments, many of the production challenges associated with R. asiaticus tuberous roots may be avoided.

    William Herbert (1778--1847) Scientist and Polymath, and His Contributions to Curtis's Botanical Magazine

    WILLIAM HERBERT (1778–1847) SCIENTIST AND POLYMATH, AND HIS CONTRIBUTIONS TO CURTIS’S BOTANICAL MAGAZINE Alison Rix ‘Hon. and Rev. W. Herbert, afterwards Dean of Manchester, in the fourth volume of the ‘Horticultural Transactions’, 1822, and in his work on the ‘Amaryllidaceae’ (1837, pp. 19, 339), declares that ‘horticultural experiments have established, beyond the possibility of refutation, that botanical species are only a higher and more permanent class of varieties’. He extends the same view to animals. The Dean believes that single species of each genus were created in an originally highly plastic condition, and that these have produced, chiefly by intercrossing, but likewise by variation, all our existing species’. [Preface to the third edition (1860) of On the Origin of Species,by Charles Darwin] The Hon. and Rev. William Herbert, often known as Dean Herbert, to whom Vol. 65 (1839) of Curtis’s Botanical Magazine was dedicated, was an exceptional polymath – a poet and classical scholar, linguist, reforming MP, clergyman – as well as amateur botanist and botanical artist. His best-known botanical work, illustrated with 48 of his own paintings, was the two volume work Amaryllidaceae, quoted above by Darwin. Although this extraordinary man counted botany as just one of his many interests, his output was prodigious; in addition to studying and breeding plants, such as Crocus, Gladiolus, Hippeastrum, Narcissus and Rhododendron, he also wrote and drew prolifically for journals such as Curtis’s Botanical Magazine and its rival publication, Edwards’s Botanical Register. In addition to Darwin, he corresponded with many other notable people, including Sir William Hooker and William Fox Talbot, and his letters paint a picture of a rather serious and industrious character.
