The seed parent is an unnamed, unpatented plant of flowers over a 4 to 5 month period. Additionally, the new Rhodanthemum hosmariense and the pollen parent is an variety produces foliage with a more silver-green appearance unpatented variety of Rhodanthemum plant, of unknown spe than the seed parent. cies.

    NETWORKING FOR DIVERSITY Annual Report 2017 – 2019 2017 – BGBM BGBM Annual Report 2017 – 2019 Cover image: Research into global biodiversity and its significance for humanity is impossible without networks. The topic of networking can be understood in different ways: in the natural world, with the life processes within an organism – visible in the network of the veins of a leaf or in the genetic diversity in populations of plants – networking takes place by means of pollen, via pollinators or the wind. In the world of research, individual objects, such as a particular plant, are networked with the data obtained from them. Networking is also crucial if this data is to be effective as a knowledge base for solving global issues of the future: collaboration between scientific experts within and across disciplines and with stakeholders at regional, national and international level.

Florian Wagner iv Abstract Plant systematics, the study of taxonomy, phylogeny and evolutionary processes in plants has undergone considerable progress in the last decades. The application of modern molecular approaches and DNA-sequencing techniques in the field has led to an improved inventory of biodiversity and a better understanding of evolutionary processes shaping the biological diversity on our planet. The increased availability of molecular and genomic data has particularly facilitated the investigation of shallowly diverged and taxonomically complex taxon-groups, which is challenging due to minor morphological differences, low genetic differentiation and/or hybridization among taxa. The present thesis investigates species delimitation, hybridization and polyploidization in the recently diverged genera Leucanthemum Mill. and Rhodanthemum B.H. Wilcox & al. of the subtribe Leucantheminae K.Bremer & Humphries (Compositae, Anthemideae) by applying Sanger-, 454-pyro-, and restriction site associated

  • Vandermeer Nursery Moroccan Daisy
    Moroccan Daisy Rhodanthemum hosmariense Height: 18 inches Spread: 24 inches Spacing: 20 inches Sunlight: Hardiness Zone: 5a Other Names: Chrysanthemum maresi var. hosmariense Description: Showy, white daisy-like flowers, with bright yellow centers, cover a mound of strong, flexible stems on this sub-shrub; blooms mid-summer; tends to like drier conitions; best in full sun but will tolerate bright shade; Moroccan Daisy flowers great for rock gardens Photo courtesy of NetPS Plant Finder Ornamental Features Moroccan Daisy is covered in stunning white daisy flowers with yellow eyes at the ends of the stems in mid summer. The flowers are excellent for cutting. Its fragrant ferny leaves remain bluish-green in colour with showy silver variegation throughout the season. The fruit is not ornamentally significant. Landscape Attributes Moroccan Daisy is an herbaceous perennial with a mounded form. Its relatively fine texture sets it apart from other garden plants with less refined foliage. This is a relatively low maintenance plant, and is best cleaned up in early spring before it resumes active growth for the season. Deer don't particularly care for this plant and will usually leave it alone in favor of tastier treats. It has no significant negative characteristics. Moroccan Daisy is recommended for the following landscape applications; - Mass Planting - Border Edging - General Garden Use - Container Planting Planting & Growing Moroccan Daisy will grow to be about 14 inches tall at maturity, with a spread of 24 inches. When grown in masses or used as a bedding plant, individual plants should be spaced approximately 20 inches apart. It grows at a medium rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 10 years.

Le asteracee sono piante di solito erbacee con infiorescenza che è normalmente un capolino composto di singoli fiori che possono essere tutti tubulosi (es. Conyza ) oppure tutti forniti di una linguetta detta ligula (es. Taraxacum ) o, infine, essere tubulosi al centro e ligulati alla periferia (es. margherita). La famiglia è diffusa in tutto il mondo, ad eccezione dell’Antartide, ed è particolarmente rappresentate nelle regioni aride tropicali e subtropicali ( Artemisia ), nelle regioni mediterranee, nel Messico, nella regione del Capo in Sud-Africa e concorre alla formazione di foreste e praterie dell’Africa, del sud-America e dell’Australia.
