  • Indoor Plants Or Houseplants
    Visit us on the Web: www.gardeninghelp.org Indoor Plants or Houseplants Over the past twenty years houseplants have grown in popularity. Offered in a wide variety of sizes, shapes, colors and textures, houseplants beautify our homes and help soften our environment. They have been scientifically proven to improve our health by lowering blood pressure and removing pollutants from the air we breathe. When selecting a houseplant, choose reputable suppliers who specialize in growing houseplants. Get off to a good start by thoroughly examining each plant. Watch for brown edges and spindly growth with elongated stems and large gaps between new leaves. Inspect leaves and stem junctions for signs of insect or disease problems. Check any support stakes to make sure they are not hiding broken stems or branches. Finally, make sure the plant is placed in an area that suits its optimal requirements for light, temperature and humidity. Where to Place Your House Plants With the exception of the very darkest areas, you can always find a houseplant with growth requirements to match the environmental conditions in your home. The most important factors are light intensity and duration. The best way to determine the intensity of light at a window exposure area is to measure it with a light meter. A light meter measures light in units called foot-candles. One foot-candle is the amount of light from a candle spread over a square foot of surface area. Plants that prefer low light may produce dull, lifeless-looking leaves when exposed to bright light. Bright light can also cause leaf spots or brown-tipped scorched margins.

Overview Euphorbia misera, native to Mexico and the United States of America, has been listed in CITES Appendix II since 1975. According to CITES trade data, international trade does not appear to be a factor affecting the status of this species. We are proposing to delete this species from the CITES Appendices. Since listing, there has been minimal CITES-recorded international trade (1 shipment of 5 artificially propagated specimens from the United States in the 1990s). The species is intrinsically vulnerable to extinction due to its limited and fragmented distribution and low reproductive output. Euphorbia misera is used medicinally in Mexico, which use appears to be highly localized. The species is known in commercial cultivation in the United States, where there is domestic * The geographical designations employed in this document do not imply the expression of any opinion whatsoever on the part of the CITES Secretariat or the United Nations Environment Programme concerning the legal status of any country, territory, or area, or concerning the delimitation of its frontiers or boundaries.

ABSTRACT The morphological characteristics of five species of pollen from the subfamily Cactoideae, family Cactaceae, were described: Three species, Echinopsis chalaensis (Rauh & Backeb.) Friedrich & G.D.Rowley, Haageocereus decumbens (Vaupel) Backeb. and Pygmaeocereus sp. Johnson & Backeb., (Trichocereeae tribe); Corryocactus brevistylus (K. Schum. ex Vaupel) Britton & Rose (Pachycereeae tribe) and Neoraimondia arequipensis (Meyen) Backeb., (Browningieae tribe). All pollen grains observed under a light microscope appeared in monades, shape varying from spheroidal to spheroidal oblate; all colpate, with the exception of C. brevistylus, with spinules < 1 µm to 2 µm; exine thickness varied 2 - 3 µm; tectum without perceptible differences, always was pierced.

  • Ist Astrophytum Coahuilense Ein Naturhybrid? 37
    M6000E Heft 2 Februar 1993 Kakten Jahrgang 44 und andere Sukkulenten Kakteen und andere Sukkulenten Monatlich erscheinendes Organ der als Herausgeber genannten Gesellschaften Heft 2 • Februar 1993 • Jahrgang 44 • ISSN 0022 7846 Zum Titelbild: Astrophytum coahuilense (Moeller) Kayser gehört zu den interessantesten Pflanzen innerhalb der morphologisch so variablen Gattung Astrophytum Lemaire. Es ähnelt einerseits in der äußeren Wuchsform genau Astrophytum myriostigma Lemaire: wie dieses besitzt es meist fünf Rippen und ist dicht mit weißen Wollflocken bedeckt. Sobald jedoch die prächtigen, großen Blüten erscheinen wird andererseits klar, daß eine enge Verwandtschaft zu Astrophytum capricorne (Dietrich) Britton & Rose bestehen muß. Sie sind im Schlund orange bis tiefrot gefärbt und bei Befruchtung entwickelt sich eine purpur-violette, samenreiche Frucht. Die überraschende Mischung der vegetativen und generativen Merkmale bei Astrophytum coahuilense aus den Astrophytum-Linien des südlichen und nördlichen mexikanischen Hochlandes ist auch der Grund für einen noch heute andauernden Meinungsunterschied, wie diese schönen Pflanzen taxonomisch oder in ihrer evolutiven Entwicklung einzustufen sind. Einen Lösungsvor­ schlag hierzu finden Sie in einem Beitrag auf Seite 37. Astrophytum coahuilense sollte man an einem sonnigen Platz pflegen und von April bis Oktober maßvoll wässern. Ein rein mineralisches Substrat, wie beispielsweise Ziegelsplitt mit Sand gemischt, bietet dann nach trockener Überwinterung um 15-20°C die optimalen Voraussetzungen für regelmäßige Blüten während der sommerlichen Wachtumszeit.
