Medical plant Useful plant Horticultural zones Zone 1 Coastal summer rainfall, frost free Zone 4 Summer rainfall Karoo and Highveld, Frost http://pza.sanbi.org/waltheria-indica 1/5 1/14/2019 Waltheria indica | Plantz Africa in winter Zone 5 Bushveld summer rainfall, Light frost The thin stems, as well as the rest of the plant, are covered with star-shaped and simple hairs. The egg-shaped leaves are greyish green and have a soft zig-zag edge, with a pointed to round tip. The flowers appear throughout the year and are clustered together between the leaves and stems. The flowers have 3 bracts and a cup-like, green (becoming brown with age) calyx with 5 yellow petals, which are fused together at their base http://pza.sanbi.org/waltheria-indica 2/5 1/14/2019 Waltheria indica | Plantz Africa and turn reddish brown at maturity. The fruits are small, 1-seeded capsules and sit in the calyx cup until becoming brown and dry. These perennial plants are quite hardy and spread easily. Conservation Status Waltheria indica is a widespread species and, according to the Red List of South African plants, has a conservation status of Least Concern (LC). Distribution and habitat Waltheria indica is found mostly in the northern part of South Africa, extending into Namibia and Botswana and tropical Africa. It is also found in the tropics and subtropics of the old and new worlds. It grows in most habitats, including open grasslands or woodlands, rocky slopes and along rivers, and can be found in human-disturbed areas in sandy soils. Derivation of name and historical aspects Waltheria indica is the only species in the genus which is distributed in southern Africa. This species is quite distinct from other species of Malvaceae in having a 1-locule ovary, whereas the other genera have 2 or more locules. The genus name http://pza.sanbi.org/waltheria-indica 3/5 1/14/2019 Waltheria indica | Plantz Africa Waltheria, was used to honour the German anatomist, botanist and physician Augustin Friedrich Walther (1688–1746). The specific epithet indica associates the species with India. Ecology The tiny yellow flowers seem to attract different flying insects, such as bees. The 1-seeded capsules dry out and become brown, and will germinate in suitable moist soil, once they have fallen. Uses The leaves of Waltheria indica are used as a leafy vegetable by the Vavhenda people of South Africa and the plant is used for barrenness by Shangaan woman. The roots, leaves and whole plant have been used to combat sexually transmitted infections, urinary tract infections, and a variety of infant illnesses in Limpopo. Because of its spreading nature, Waltheria indica makes an ideal pot plant. Growing Waltheria indica Waltheria indica has a spreading nature and can be found growing in small patches in full sun. The plant is more attractive in a pot where it can be pruned to become bushy. Collect the 1-seeded capsules before they turn completely brown and let them dry before sifting out the seeds. The seeds will take 1 to 3 months to germinate in a damp planting mix and the seedlings can thrive in a variety of soils. References Foden, W. & Potter, L. 2005. Waltheria indica L.

Lukas1*, Joseph DeFrank2, Orville C. Baldos2 and Ruijun Qin3 1Department of Horticulture, Oregon State University, Hermiston Agricultural Research and Extension Center, Hermiston OR 97838; 2Department of Tropical Plant and Soil Sciences, University of Hawaii at Manoa, Honolulu HI, 96822; 3Department of Crop and Soil Science, Oregon State University, Hermiston Agricultural Research and Extension Center, Hermiston OR 97838. *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The Hawaii Statewide Noxious Invasive Pest Program (SNIPP) and associated storm water management plans provide statutory justification for increased use of native plants along the State of Hawaii transportation corridors. The demand for native plants exceeds the availability of plant materials or seed. To produce seed stock and ensure seed lot purity, establishment protocols for weed control must first be defined. Uhaloa (Waltheria indica), a native Hawaiian broadleaf shrub has been identified for increased roadside usage, thus will be the focus of this research. Weed control during the establishment phase of uhaloa is essential for optimising establishment success. In this study, the efficacy and phytotoxicity of the pre-emergence herbicides oxadiazon and indaziflam, applied over uhaloa transplants, were evaluated. Crop and weed response to granular oxadiazon at 2.24 kg ai ha-1 and 4.48 kg ai ha-1 and flowable indaziflam at 24 g ai ha-1 and 49 g ai ha-1 were determined.

It is a 7.5 acre conservation area, owned by the City of Key West. The KWBG requested that The Institute for Regional Conservation (IRC) conduct a floristic evaluation of its natural areas and grounds and to provide recommendations. Study Design On August 9-10, 2005 an inventory of all vascular plants was conducted at the KWBG. All areas of the KWBG were visited, including the newly acquired property to the south. Special attention was paid toward the remnant natural habitats. A preliminary plant list was established. Plant taxonomy generally follows Wunderlin (1998) and Bailey et al. (1976). Results Five distinct habitats were recorded for the KWBG. Two of which are human altered and are artificial being classified as developed upland and modified wetland. In addition, three natural habitats are found at the KWBG. They are coastal berm (here termed buttonwood hammock), rockland hammock, and tidal swamp habitats. Developed and Modified Habitats Garden and Developed Upland Areas The developed upland portions include the maintained garden areas as well as the cleared parking areas, building edges, and paths.

Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Malvaceae sensu lato (s.l.) is a heterogeneous family rich in highly diversified characters among its taxa, since phylogenetic studies on Malvaceae sensu lato lead to merger of core families of Malvales, i.e. Sterculiaceae, Tiliaceae, Bombacaceae and Malvaceae s.s. into its fold and distribution of their genera among nine subfamilies: Bombacoideae, Brownlowioideae, Byttnerioideae, Dombeyoideae, Grewioideae, Helicteroideae, Malvoideae, Sterculioideae, and Tilioideae1,2. While understanding its taxonomical relationships and affinities, it is important to identify palynomorphology to delimit the taxa. In this study, pollen morphology of common species of this family belong to Chityal Reserve Forest area, Nalgonda district, Telangana is discussed. Pollen morphological characters of these species range from spheroidal to prolate, echinate and reticulate to scabrate to granulate, pantoporate to colporate to trizonoporate etc., which reflect the diversity among the taxa. This study is based on pollen morphological variations among the common species, each belong to 12 different genera with a key for their simple identification.
