Department of Planning and Zoning Subject: Howard County Landscape Manual Updates: Recommended Street Tree List (Appendix B) and Recommended Plant List (Appendix C) - Effective July 1, 2010 To: DLD Review Staff Homebuilders Committee From: Kent Sheubrooks, Acting Chief Division of Land Development Date: July 1, 2010 Purpose: The purpose of this policy memorandum is to update the Recommended Plant Lists presently contained in the Landscape Manual. The plant lists were created for the first edition of the Manual in 1993 before information was available about invasive qualities of certain recommended plants contained in those lists (Norway Maple, Bradford Pear, etc.). Additionally, diseases and pests have made some other plants undesirable (Ash, Austrian Pine, etc.). The Howard County General Plan 2000 and subsequent environmental and community planning publications such as the Route 1 and Route 40 Manuals and the Green Neighborhood Design Guidelines have promoted the desirability of using native plants in landscape plantings. Therefore, this policy seeks to update the Recommended Plant Lists by identifying invasive plant species and disease or pest ridden plants for their removal and prohibition from further planting in Howard County and to add other available native plants which have desirable characteristics for street tree or general landscape use for inclusion on the Recommended Plant Lists. Please note that a comprehensive review of the street tree and landscape tree lists were conducted for the purpose of this update, however, only -

Native Trees of Georgia
1 NATIVE TREES OF GEORGIA By G. Norman Bishop Professor of Forestry George Foster Peabody School of Forestry University of Georgia Currently Named Daniel B. Warnell School of Forest Resources University of Georgia GEORGIA FORESTRY COMMISSION Eleventh Printing - 2001 Revised Edition 2 FOREWARD This manual has been prepared in an effort to give to those interested in the trees of Georgia a means by which they may gain a more intimate knowledge of the tree species. Of about 250 species native to the state, only 92 are described here. These were chosen for their commercial importance, distribution over the state or because of some unusual characteristic. Since the manual is intended primarily for the use of the layman, technical terms have been omitted wherever possible; however, the scientific names of the trees and the families to which they belong, have been included. It might be explained that the species are grouped by families, the name of each occurring at the top of the page over the name of the first member of that family. Also, there is included in the text, a subdivision entitled KEY CHARACTERISTICS, the purpose of which is to give the reader, all in one group, the most outstanding features whereby he may more easily recognize the tree. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The author wishes to express his appreciation to the Houghton Mifflin Company, publishers of Sargent’s Manual of the Trees of North America, for permission to use the cuts of all trees appearing in this manual; to B. R. Stogsdill for assistance in arranging the material; to W. -

Textual Research for Latin Names and Medicinal Effects of Low Grade Drugs in Shennongbencaojing
J Chin Med 24(1): 65-84, 2013 65 TEXTUAL RESEARCH FOR LATIN NAMES AND MEDICINAL EFFECTS OF LOW GRADE DRUGS IN SHENNONGBENCAOJING Shu-Ling Liu*, Chao-Lin Kuo, Yu-Jen Ko, Ming-Tsuen Hsieh Department of Chinese Pharmaceutical Sciences and Chinese Medicine Resources, College of Pharmacy, China Medical University, Taichung, Taiwan ( Received 11th May 2012, accepted 23th August 2012 ) The textual research for Latin names and medicinal effects of Shennongbencaojing, after Top Grade and Medium Grade, the Low Grade Drugs was studied. The Low Grade Drugs were divided, in the same way for Top and Medium Grade Drugs, into 6 groups and their drugs number were also shown in the following order: Plant (72 drugs), Mineral (7 drugs), Animal (6 drugs), Fish and Shellfish (2 drugs), Insect (14 drugs) and Other (2 drugs). The number of Low Grade Drugs in Sun’s edition was summed up to 103. In this study, many drugs were considered to be toxic such as: Aconitum carmichaeli (No. 1), Pinellia ternata (No. 4), Rheum palmatum (No. 7), Hyoscyamus niger (No. 10), Veratrum nigrum (No. 13), Gelsemium elegans (No. 14), Dichroa febrifuga (No. 17), Euphorbia pekinensis (No. 24), Agrimonia pilosa (No. 29), Rhododendron molle (No. 30), Phytolacca acinosa (No. 31) etc. They were also listed in the Poisonous Weeds Class of Compendium of Materia Medica. Modern research has confirmed that most of the Low Grade Drugs are toxic as well. For four drugs, Guanjun (No. 22), Yangtao (No. 37), Wujiu (No. 41) and Yaoshigen (No. 64) their botanical names have not yet been defined. Some drugs might have different medicinal names by various used parts but were originated in the same scientific name. -
Trees: That Can Present a Litter Problem
Visit us on the Web: www.gardeninghelp.org Trees: That can Present a Litter Problem The following trees drop fruit and/or other debris that can make them undesirable in some locations. Scientific name Common name Comments Aesculus hippocastanum Horsechestnut Golfball-sized fruit can be hazardous. Seeds are also toxic and should not be confused with the edible chestnut. Premature leaf drop from leaf blotch disease can be unsightly. Catalpa speciosa Catalpa Large numbers for dropping seed pods can present a litter problem. Ginkgo biloba Ginkgo Female ginkgo trees produce a fruit that has a very offensive odor. Male-only cultivars do not produce fruit and are readily available. Gleditsia triacanthus Honeylocust The fruit is large, abundant, and messy. Also, honeylocust trees have large potentially painful thorns. There are thornless trees, often listed as G. t. var. inermis (or G. t. forma inermis), but sprouts from the roots of grafted cultivars may produce thorns. These trees are susceptible to several diseases and insect pests. Gymnocladus dioica Kentucky coffeetree This is a valuable native Missouri tree but some owners may consider its leaves and seed pods a litter problem. Juglans nigra Black walnut Black walnut trees leaf out late and lose their leaves early; consequently, they are bare much of the year. The nuts can be messy and their husks stain skin, clothing and sidewalks. The roots produce juglone, a chemical which is toxic to many other plants. Liquidamber styraciflua Sweet gum Sweet gum fruits are abundant, difficult to clean up, fall from the tree over a period of several months and can be hazardous in pedestrian traffic areas. -

Abstract: Attention is paid to all basidiomycetous species hitherto known to occur on Catalpa as host plant. During 1955-1997 more than 20 new fungus-host associations from diverse species of Catalpa grown in Europe could be found by the author. Zusammenfassung: Basidiomyzeten, die bisher von Catalpa als Wirtspflanze bekannt sind, werden aufgeführt. Dem Autor gelang es, 1955-1997 mehr als zwanzig neue Pilz-Wirt-Assoziationen von ver- schiedenen in Europa angepflanzten Catalpa-Artcn zu finden. Catalpa SCOP. (Bignoniaceae), called cigar-tree in the USA, a genus native to the United States of America [Southern Catalpa = C. hignonioides WALTER, Hardy Ca- talpa = C. speciosa (WARDER ex BARNEY) ENGELM.], West Indies and/or China. Common species of the genus are favoured as ornamental trees due to their showy panicles of flowers and long cigar-like pendent capsular fruits as well. In Europe, spe- cies of Catalpa are often cultivated as park- and street-trees. OUDEMANS (1923) mentioned only four species of Basidiomycetes for Catalpa, i.e., Polyponts distortus (= Abortipoms biennis). Pistil/aha mucedina. Pistil/aria mucoroides, and Polyponis distinctus (nomen dubium). Six further basidiomycetous species collected on Catalpa were listed in the next host index by SEYMOUR (1929): Exidia saccharina, Polyponis adustus (= Bjerkandera adusta), Schizophyllum commune, Stereum albobadium (= Dendrophora alhobadia), Stereum versicolor, and Trametes sepium (= Antrodia al- bida). -
Arboretum Guide 2.Pmd
Acknowledgments An arboretum is a place for the study, display and preservation of trees. Thanks to the foresight and devotion of members of the Guada Coma Garden Club, Landa Park was designated as an arboretum in 1982. Nestled on 51 acres of river front park land, this arboretum acts as a living library of trees. Developed by Harry Landa in 1898 as a private park, Landa Park was opened to the public in 1936. Since that time, residents have worked to preserve the natural beauty that exists here. The arboretum was named after two such individuals, William and Delores Schumann, in 2007 in honor of their endless devotion to this botanical jewel.

Northern Catalpa (Catalpa Speciosa) Nebraska Forest Service
Northern catalpa (Catalpa speciosa) Nebraska Forest Service Northern catalpa is a tree that is not usually planted as a landscape specimen and it is often overlooked for rural plantings as well. But the tree does have some excellent qualities that should not be overlooked. Northern catalpa (Catalpa speciosa) is native to a relatively small area of the central Mississippi Valley basin from southern Illinois down into Missouri and Arkansas. The range of the plant has greatly increased through planting on farms as fence post material and as an ornamental. The wood is very resistant to decay and it is much lighter in weight than black locust or osage-orange. The name catalpa is said to come from a Cherokee Indian word that means bean tree. The seed pods look like large string beans. Speciosa is from the Latin meaning species. Catalpa is sometimes called cigar tree, also referring to the long seed pods that are visible from mid-summer and into fall. The tree is relatively large and may reach heights of 70 feet under ideal conditions. The National champion is located in Walla Walla, Washington and has a circumference of 22 feet and is 79 feet tall. Northern catalpa provides a nice show of color in late spring since it flowers after most all other trees have finished flowering. The flowers are short lived and when they fall they cover the ground like snow. The leaves are large and heart-shaped. Catalpa can be troublesome since the larger leaves and seed pods can be messy. The pods open up in the fall and a winged seed will fall out.
