You know that if you leave the garden bare in the fall then winter chickweed, henbit, annual bluegrass and other weeds will soon overtake it. The cover crop reduces weed growth by out- competing the weeds for sunlight, moisture and nutrients. Some cover crops even release chemicals that can inhibit weed growth. Nutrients, especially nitrogen, can move with rainwater out of the root zone during the winter and become unavailable for plant growth.

    Cyclamen Notes by Wilhelm (Bill) Bischoff Flowers of Atlantis?

By Wilhelm (Bill) Bischoff / member BC Council of Garden Clubs If you can accept that the island called Santorini in the central Mediterranean, also known as Thira / Tera, is the original Island of Atlantis; if you also can agree that this Island had a terrific volcanic explosion more than 3,000 years ago, than I can share with you an equally fantastic botanical story with you. That today’s Thira is the remnant of an exploded volcano is quite evident when one looks at a map of this region of the Mediterranean. Located as part of the Aegean Islands, just north of Crete, it shows the unmistakable shape of a water filled volcanic caldera with a center-cone island. Scientists have identified volcanic ash taken from the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea, close to the Lebanese coast, as originating from Thira. The time frame of some 3300 years ago also coincides with the beginning of a rather tumultuous time in this part of the ancient world, the end of the “Bronze Age”. The possible cause of that could well have been a natural disaster, in the very heart of the ancient world as we know it. Now that I have your attention and possibly have whetted your curiosity, let me introduce you to one of the small wonders of this very ancient world, the beautiful Cyclamen, all 22 species of them.

  • Relationship of Animals to the Cyclamen Cyclamen Fatrense Halda Et Soják: Pollinators, Consumers and Occasional Visitors
    Biologia 68/3: 517—524, 2013 Section Zoology DOI: 10.2478/s11756-013-0178-2 Relationship of animals to the cyclamen Cyclamen fatrense Halda et Soják: pollinators, consumers and occasional visitors Peter Turis1 &ĽubomírVidlička2,3 1The administration of the Low Tatras National Park, Lazovná 10,SK-97401 Banská Bystrica, Slovakia; e-mail: [email protected] 2Institute of Zoology, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Dúbravská cesta 9,SK-84506 Bratislava, Slovakia and 3Department of Biology, Faculty of Education, Comenius University, Moskovská 2, Bratislava, Slovakia; e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The West-Carpathian endemic Cyclamen fatrense is a forests species. Its distribution area lies at the northern margin of distribution area of the Cyclamen genus. Several studies have focused on the pollinators and consumers of representatives of this genus, but they mention only some more important animal species. The aim of our study was to determine the species spectrum of animals having a relationship to C. fatrense in its natural environment and to define mutual relationships between this plant and animals based on comparison of phenologic manifestations of cyclamen and known ecologic data about its visitors. In course of different phenophases of C. fatrense we recorded 127 invertebrate taxa on this plant. Among them 7 taxa were identified as consumers, 29 taxa as potential consumers, 5 taxa as potential pollinators and 91 had an indifferent relationship to the cyclamen. Damaging or direct consummation of cyclamens by vertebrates has not been observed. Key words: Cyclamen fatrense; pollinators; consumers Introduction Affre et al. 1995; Affre & Thompson 1997; Schwartz- Tzachor et al. 2006).

Alastair Culham & Kálmán Könyves Centre for Plant Diversity and Systematics, School of biological Sciences, University of reading, RG6 6AS Cyclamen graecum is a well-defined evolutionary unit that separated from other Cyclamen species about 10 million years ago (Yesson & Culham 2006; Yesson, Toomey & Culham, 2009). It is genetically isolated and there are no records of it hybridizing naturally with other species. However, over that time it has begun to form separate populations that themselves might later become species. These are currently recognised at the subspecies level (Mathew 2013) and have distinct geographic distributions (Figure 1) showing isolation by water between populations. C. graecum subsp. graecum occupies mainland Greece and nearby islands, C. graecum subsp. candicum occurs in Crete and C.
