Climbers & Wall Shrubs Climbers & Wall Shrubs Wall, fences and pergolas, arches and tunnels all provide the perfect setting for climbers and wall shrubs. Easy to care for when pruned at the right time of year, they provide a profusion of flower, fruit and fragrance. In small gardens, they can be used to unify a space or to provide a variety of flower periods. Our climbers are grown on a tripod of canes for height and instant effect. Our wall shrubs are clipped to form neat two dimensional plants on a trellis, easy to maintain thereafter. Our screening plants are grown on a strong frame of bamboo canes. Our climber fixing kits include all you need to create a strong but invisible support for these plants, whatever theAll structure prices includeyou wish V.A.T. to grow them over or against. www.tendercare.co.uk [email protected] 01895 835544 Climbers & Wall Shrubs HeightWidth GirthPot Form Qty Price Climbers grown on Canes Actinidia deliciosa (D) Kiwi Fruit (Female) A vigorous deciduous climber with large heart-shaped leaves up to 20cm.

These will add colour to trees by growing through them, or as ground cover for dry banks. Two climbing plants will happily grow through each other to extend the flowering period, or one to provide foliage for the winter. On sunny sheltered walls, plants needing some protection may be grown. Our list includes plants for all these purposes. Most will need some help through the use of trellis or a network of wires which are available in our Garden Shop. Self clinging plants will adhere to a wall once established and will do no damage to sound brickwork. Most of these plants are best pruned as follows unless otherwise stated: - After flowering or in late winter/early spring, cut back flowered shoots to within 2-4 buds of permanent framework. Any dead, misplaced, old or unwanted shots should be removed at the same time. = The Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit (AGM) 2 ABELIA - Summer flowering shrub, needing a sunny sheltered site. Best results are obtained from planting against a wall. Well drained soil. GRANDIFLORA - Pinkish white slightly fragrant flowers July - October. Height 3m Spread 4m. Glossy green foliage.

    Identification and evaluation of Lonicera japonica flos introduced to the Hailuogou area based on ITS sequences and active compounds Haiyan He1,2, Dan Zhang1, Jianing Gao1,2, Theis Raaschou Andersen3 and Zishen Mou4,5 1 Key Laboratory of Mountain Surface Processes and Ecological Regulation, Institute of Mountain Hazards and Environment, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Chengdu, People’s Republic of China 2 University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, People’s Republic of China 3 Centre for Applied Research & Development, VIA University College, Horsens, Denmark 4 State Environmental Protection Key Laboratory of Synergetic Control and Joint Remediation for Soil & Water Pollution (Chengdu University of Technology), Chengdu, People’s Republic of China 5 State Key Laboratory of Geohazard Prevention and Geoenvironment Protection, Chengdu, People’s Republic of China ABSTRACT Lonicera japonica flos (LJF), the dried flower buds of L. japonica Thunb., have been used in traditional Chinese herbal medicine for thousands of years. Recent studies have reported that LJF has many medicinal properties because of its antioxidative, hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic, anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial effects. LJF is widely used in China in foods and healthcare products, and is contained in more than 30% of current traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions. Because of this, many Chinese villages cultivate LJF instead of traditional crops due to its high commercial value in the herbal medicine market. Since 2005, the flower buds of L. japonica are the only original LJF parts considered according to the Chinese Pharmacopoeia of the People’s Republic of China. However, for historical and commercial reasons, some closely related species of Lonicera Linn.

Inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSRs) were used to analyze the genetic diversity of 21 accessions obtained from four provinces in China, Shandong, Henan, Hebei, and Sichuan. A total of 272 scored bands were generated using the eight primers previously screened across 21 accessions, of which 267 were polymorphic (98.16%). Genetic similarity coefficients varied from 0.4816 to 0.9118, with an average of 0.6337. The UPGMA dendrogram grouped 21 accessions into two main clusters. Cluster A comprised four Lonicera macranthoides Hand. Mazz. accessions, of which J10 was found to be from Sichuan, and J17, J18, and J19 were found to be from Shandong. Cluster B comprised 17 Lonicera japonica Thumb. accessions, divided into the wild accession J16 and the other 16 cultivars. The results of the Genetics and Molecular Research 16 (1): gmr16019338 H.Y.

Academic Editor: Derek J. McPhee Received: 29 November 2016; Accepted: 29 January 2017; Published: 7 February 2017 Abstract: The complete chloroplast (cp) genome of Lonicera japonica, a common ornamental and medicinal plant in North America and East Asia, was sequenced and analyzed. The length of the L. japonica cp genome is 155,078 bp, contains a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRa and IRb), of 23,774 bp each, as well as large (LSC, 88,858 bp) and small (SSC, 18,672 bp) single-copy regions. A total of 129 genes were identified in the cp genome, 16 of which were duplicated within the IR regions. Relative to other plant cp genomes, the L. japonica cp genome had a unique rearrangement between trnI-CAU and trnN-GUU. In L. japonica cpDNA, rps19, rpl2, and rpl23 move to the LSC region, from the IR region.

It’s sad therefore that some gardeners write them off with a "I've got a Honeysuckle" in part its our own fault that they can sometimes look dishevelled Charlie Pridham of and not flower very well. they do benefit from being pruned to keep the wood Roseland House Nursery young and productive. Its also worth remembering that some of the very pretty Honeysuckles from hotter parts of the world can go into a summer dormancy so its best to grow these with a supporting cast of other climbers With 35 species and hybrids growing here its hard to pick favourites, but here are some suggestions for various jobs in the garden, these are some of our must haves at Roseland House. For early scented flowers Lonicera caprifolium (1) or one of its hybrids Lonicera x italic (2) . These two will cover April to end of June period. 1 2 For summer scented flowers our native woodbine Lonicera periclymenum is hard to beat, this has many named forms, these pale yellow types are hard to tell apart, 'Belgica' (or 'Early Dutch') remains a great plant if some colour is required as well as the scent. For later summer flower and scent Lonicera periclymenum 'Serotina' (or Late Dutch) is at its best in August and September, again there are many named forms, one of the best of these is 'Red Gables'.

  • CAPRIFOLIACEAE 1. TRIOSTEUM Linnaeus, Sp. Pl. 1: 176. 1753
    CAPRIFOLIACEAE 忍冬科 ren dong ke Yang Qiner (杨亲二)1; Sven Landrein2, Joanna Osborne2, Renata Borosova2 Shrubs or woody climbers, rarely small trees or herbs. Leaves opposite, rarely whorled, simple or pinnatifid, conduplicate or involute in vernation; interpetiolar stipules absent or rarely well developed. Inflorescence thyrsoid, axillary or terminal, compact or lax, cymes 1-, 2-, or 3-flowered; paired flowers sometimes with ovaries ± fused. Cymes with a pair of bracts and 2 pairs of bracte- oles, located at base of ovaries, ± fused, occasionally accrescent in fruit, rarely absent. Flowers bisexual, actinomorphic or zygo- morphic. Calyx 4- or 5-lobed. Corolla epigynous, gamopetalous; lobes 4 or 5, spreading, sometimes bilabiate, aestivation imbricate. Stamens (4 or)5, didynamous, alternating with corolla lobes, sometimes exserted; anthers free, 2-celled, opening by longitudinal slits, introrse. Ovary inferior, carpels 2–8, fused; placenta axile; ovules 1 to many per locule, some of which can be abortive, pendulous; style solitary; stigmas capitate or lobed. Fruit a berry, a drupe with 2–5 pyrenes, or a leathery achene. Seeds 1 to many; embryo small, straight; endosperm copious. Five genera and ca. 207 species: mostly in temperate regions of E Asia and E North America; five genera (one endemic) and 66 species (25 endemic) in China. Following recent phylogenetic studies (Bell et al., Harvard Pap. Bot. 6(2): 481–499. 2001; Donoghue et al., Harvard Pap. Bot. 6(2): 459–479. 2001; W. H. Zhang et al., Molec. Phylogen. Evol. 26: 176–189. 2002), Caprifoliaceae is now thought to include Caprifolieae, Diervilleae, Linnaeeae, Morinaceae, Dipsacaceae, and Valerianaceae. However, Blacklund and Pyck (Taxon 47: 657–661.
