  • Passiflora Incarnata Family: the Passionflower Family, Passifloraceae
    Of interest this week at Beal... Purple Passionflower Passiflora incarnata Family: the Passionflower family, Passifloraceae. Also called May-Pop, and Wild apricot W. J. Beal The purple passionflower, Passiflora incarnata,is an herbaceous vine, native to the Botanical Garden southeast quadrant of North America. It, and its fruit often are called maypops. It is the fruits of passionflowers that provide the most popular of the food uses for the plant, used in drinks and ice creams. But it is the flower, captivating by its complex beauty, and its history as an icon of Christian myth that generate the most interest. There are many passionflower species (Passiflora spp.) and all of them are native to the new world tropics, or near-tropics. Depending on which taxonomy you choose, there are between 400 and 600 species in this genus. The purple passionflower is found farther outside the tropics than any other passionflower. It has been found at least as far north as Missouri in the West and New Jersey in the eastern United States. Although the intricate and striking flowers are beautiful and fragrant, their connection to passion is not over love or romance. Passion, in this context, refers to the Passion of Christ. Spanish Christian missionaries, saw the numerological aspects of the flower as a sign from God that their mission in the New World was God’s will. When the Vatican received the first drawings of the flowers, the clerics reviewing them thought the illustrations were so fanciful as to not be real. It was not until much later, after many missionaries were interviewed, that these unmistakable flowers were accepted as a possibly real organism.

University of Cape Town BOLUS LIBRARY C24 0005 5091 Abstract 1111111111111 The pollen morphlogy of 34 species of Clutia L. (Euphorbiaceae) has been studied by light and scanning electron microscopy. The grains are medium sized, prolate to subprolate and rarely prolate spheroidal, tricolporate and distinctly tectate. The tectum is reticulate to punctate and the lumina are variable in size and shape. Pollen dimensions were found to be of no significance in defining infrageneric relationships while reticulation pattern, pitting density and roughnes of the exine distinguished several pollen groups when analysed by multivariate methods. The three large groups maintained their integrity regardless of method of multivariate analysis employed. A further comparison with the sections of Clutia suggested by Pax (1911) and Prain (1913) gave substantial support for some of these sections.Type ED 1 is characterised by irregular exine pits and rough tecta and is correlated to the section C. alatemoideae recognized by both workers in earlier sectioning of Clutia. Type RT 1 I corresponds to C. abyssinica and C.

  • Passiflora Tarminiana, a New Cultivated Species of Passiflora Subgenus
    Novon 11(1): 8–15. 2001 Passiflora tarminiana, a new cultivated species of Passiflora subgenus Tacsonia. Geo Coppens d'Eeckenbrugge1, Victoria E. Barney1, Peter Møller Jørgensen2, John M. MacDougal2 1CIRAD-FLHOR/IPGRI Project for Neotropical Fruits, c/o CIAT, A.A. 6713, Cali Colombia 2Missouri Botanical Garden, P.O. Box 299, St Louis, Missouri 63166-0299, U.S.A. Abstract The new species Passiflora tarminiana differs from its closes relative by the character combination of very small acicular stipules and large almost reflexed petals and sepals. This species has escaped detection despite being widely cultivated. Naturalized populations, particularly on Hawa'ii, have created problems for conservation of the native flora. In Colombia it is more frequently adopted in industrial cultivation because of its rusticity and resistance to fungal diseases. Introduction Passifloras of the subgenus Tacsonia are cultivated by many small farmers, from Venezuela to Bolivia. Some species are cultivated in New Zealand. The main cultivated species is Passiflora mollissima (Kunth) Bailey (Escobar, 1980 & 1988), also called P. Coppens et al. 2000 Passiflora tarminiana 2 tripartita var. mollissima (Kunth) Holm-Nielsen & P. Jørgensen (Holm-Nielsen et al., 1988). It is called "curuba de Castilla" in Colombia, "tacso de Castilla" in Ecuador, and “banana passionfruit” in English-speaking countries.. The second species of importance in the Andes is "curuba india," "curuba ecuatoriana," or "curuba quiteña" in Colombia, called "tacso amarillo" in Ecuador (Pérez Arbeláez, 1978; A.A.A., 1992; Campos, 1992). It is most frequently found in private gardens, but some commercial growers have, because of its rusticity, started to grow it instead of the "curuba de Castilla." We describe this overlooked cultigen as a new species under the name Passiflora tarminiana, in recognition of Tarmín Campos, a Colombian agronomist who contributed with enthusiasm to the development of banana passion fruit cultivation and introduced the first author to the cultivated passifloras of the central Colombian highlands.

  • Deletion of Cephalotus Follicularis from Appendix II
    Prop. 11.6 CONVENTION ON INTERNATIONAL TRADE IN ENDANGERED SPECIES OF WILD FAUNA AND FLORA A. PROPOSAL Deletion of Cephalotus follicularis from Appendix II. B. PROPONENT Commonwealth of Australia (Environment Australia) C. SUPPORTING STATEMENT The monotypic genus Cephalotus is an insectivorous plant endemic to south western Australia. It occurs on wetland margins throughout the southwest corner of Western Australia. This portion of Western Australia has a high rainfall and as a result there are extensive areas of suitable habitat, especially on the south coastal plain. Within its range are large areas of government owned forests, National Parks and other reserves where the species is common and is likely to occur in vast numbers. The species is easily propagated from small segments of rhizomes and, as a result, it is commonly traded and is widely cultivated. Morphological variation in wild populations is not evident. As the species is easily propagated, it is unlikely that cultivated stocks are derived from wild collections. Cephalotus follicularis has been identified by the CITES Plants Committee under the Ten Year Review as a candidate for deletion from Appendix II as there has been no recorded trade in wild taken specimens since the species was listed. The proposal received full endorsement of the 5th meeting of the CITES Plants Committee in Mexico, May 1994. 1. Taxonomy 1.1. Class Magnoliatae 1.2. Order Rosales 1.3. Family Cephalotaceae 1.4. Genus/species Cephalotus follicularis Labillardière 1806 1.5. Common name Western Australian pitcher plant; Albany pitcher plant 2. Biological data 2.1. Distribution The area of distribution ranges over 400 km from NW to SE and corresponds with the meso- mediterranean climate of the extreme south western part of Australia.

  • Giant Cephalotus of Unknown Origins
    Giant Cephalotus of unknown origins Dick Chan • P.O. Box 2252 • Pasadena • California 91102 • USA • [email protected] Introduction I have been growing Cephalotus follicularis for over 20 years. Initially, I was obsessed with grow- ing specimen-type Cephalotus of different clones and to prove once-and-for-all that this was not a difficult plant to grow. Countless plants have met their demise as I experimented with various meth- ods of cultivation. For those that have survived and flourished, I noticed one plant in particular that grew larger, more vigorous, and had a different pitcher/leaf morphology than Cephalotus ‘Hummer’s Giant’ and the typical Cephalotus. However, I do not believe this plant to be just a better-grown speci- men of ‘Hummer’s Giant’. Through the years, I have given and sold this plant to individuals calling it the “Bubble Giant”, however, I have not received nor heard any feedback as to the well-being of those plants. So, for those reading this article and have received this plant from me, I would appreciate seeing some photos. For the remainder of this article, this plant will be referred to as the “unknown”. Origins During my initial spark-of-entry into the hobby, I started collecting Cephalotus cuttings, plants, stems, and leaves from anyone who had the plant and was willing to give or sell a piece to me. Be- cause of that activity, this plant is of an unknown origin because of the feverish pace by which I went about amassing what I had hoped would become a genetically diverse collection of plants.

  • Phylogenetic Reconstruction Prompts Taxonomic Changes in Sauropus, Synostemon and Breynia (Phyllanthaceae Tribe Phyllantheae)
    Blumea 59, 2014: 77–94 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/blumea RESEARCH ARTICLE http://dx.doi.org/10.3767/000651914X684484 Phylogenetic reconstruction prompts taxonomic changes in Sauropus, Synostemon and Breynia (Phyllanthaceae tribe Phyllantheae) P.C. van Welzen1,2, K. Pruesapan3, I.R.H. Telford4, H.-J. Esser 5, J.J. Bruhl4 Key words Abstract Previous molecular phylogenetic studies indicated expansion of Breynia with inclusion of Sauropus s.str. (excluding Synostemon). The present study adds qualitative and quantitative morphological characters to molecular Breynia data to find more resolution and/or higher support for the subgroups within Breynia s.lat. However, the results show molecular phylogeny that combined molecular and morphological characters provide limited synergy. Morphology confirms and makes the morphology infrageneric groups recognisable within Breynia s.lat. The status of the Sauropus androgynus complex is discussed. Phyllanthaceae Nomenclatural changes of Sauropus species to Breynia are formalised. The genus Synostemon is reinstated.

  • Spring 2014 for Web.Pub
    Spring 2014 Page 1 Botanic Garden News The Botanic Garden Volume 17, No. 1 of Smith College Spring 2014 Orchidelirium at Smith Madelaine Zadik K aren Yu ’16 is a STRIDE scholar who has worked with me since 2012 on educational projects and exhibitions at the Botanic Garden. As a first year, Karen learned about the workings of the Botanic Garden, our plant collections, and our various educational activities, including exhibit production. The plan was that by the end of her two-year STRIDE placement, she would produce an exhibit of her own. She had to hit the ground running, as the exhibit Botanical Printing: Artful Collaborations on Paper and Cloth opened just a month and a half after her arrival. Karen wrote label copy and press releases, learned mounting techniques, helped design the gallery layout with our modular walls, and learned how to use our unique hanging system in the Church Exhibition Gallery. For our next exhibit, From Petals to Paper: Poetic Inspiration from Flowers, Karen was involved in the many months of planning leading up to the installation in March 2013. When given a choice of possible exhibit topics for her own project, Karen chose to use a collection of orchid prints by artist Florence Helen Woolward to create an exhibit that would help illuminate the world of orchids for the visiting public. The prints are from Thesaurus Woolwardiae, Orchids of the Marquis of Lothian, which contained reproductions of 60 of Woolward’s orchid paintings. Woolward produced an impressive body of work, especially considering that she was never formally trained in either art or botany.

This species is confined to the Nokrek Biosphere Reserve where it grows on the calcareous habitat in karst topography. On the basis of the critical features of its habitat, branches, petioles, leaves, and fruits, the species is compared with the closely related allied species, C. tonkinensis Jabl. and C. balakrishnanii Chakrab. Notes on its taxonomic description, photographs, ecology, associated species, population data, and threat perspective as per latest IUCN conservation status are provided. A key to the other taxa in the genus reported from India is provided for the first time, along with their distributional records and endemism. KEY WORDS: Cleistanthus nokrensis, Euphorbiaceae, Indian Himalaya, IUCN Red List, new species. INTRODUCTION to Chakrabarty et al. (2002) and Mabberley (2008) has its centre of diversity in the Old World tropics and Myers et al. (2000) estimated that 133,149 plant represented by 148 species.
