  • <I>Plagianthus</I> (Malveae, Malvaceae)
    Systematic Botany (2011), 36(2): pp. 405–418 © Copyright 2011 by the American Society of Plant Taxonomists DOI 10.1600/036364411X569589 Phylogeny and Character Evolution in the New Zealand Endemic Genus Plagianthus (Malveae, Malvaceae) Steven J. Wagstaff 1 , 3 and Jennifer A. Tate 2 1 Allan Herbarium, Landcare Research, PO Box 40, Lincoln 7640, New Zealand 2 Massey University, Institute of Molecular Biosciences, Private Bag 11222, Palmerston North, New Zealand 3 Author for correspondence ([email protected]) Communicating Editor: Lúcia Lohmann Abstract— As presently circumscribed, Plagianthus includes two morphologically distinct species that are endemic to New Zealand. Plagianthus divaricatus , a divaricate shrub, is a dominant species in coastal saline shrub communities, whereas P. regius is a tree of lowland and montane forests. Results from independent analyses of ITS and 5′ trnK / matK sequences are congruent, and when combined provide a robust framework to study character evolution. Our findings suggest the ancestor of Plagianthus originated in Australia where the sister gen- era Asterotrichion and Gynatrix are presently distributed. The stem age of Plagianthus was estimated at 7.3 (4.0–14.0) million years ago (Ma) and the crown radiation at 3.9 (1.9–8.2) Ma. Most of the characters optimized onto the molecular phylogeny were shared with source lineages from Australia and shown to be plesiomorphic. Only the divaricate branching pattern characteristic of Plagianthus divaricatus was acquired after the lineage became established in New Zealand and shown to be apomorphic. The initial Plagianthus founders were shrubs or small trees with deciduous leaves and small inconspicuous dioecious flowers.

There is a very large one in We were stuck on 99 bird species at Inverawe for so the Hobart Botanical Gardens, down near the flower long, then jumped suddenly to 101. We thought for clock. The hairs inside the fruit are a skin irritant so one moment this might be 102 but it is a juvenile its common names include Itchy Bomb tree, and Goldfinch. It has the Zebra panels on its wings but Cowsitch. lacks the characteristic red face mask and has a very mottled appearance.

  • Non-Expressway Master Plant List
    MASTER PLANT LIST GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO PLANT LISTS Plants are living organisms. They possess variety in form, foliage and flower color, visual texture and ultimate size. There is variation in plants of the same species. Plants change: with seasons, with time and with the environment. Yet here is an attempt to categorize and catalogue a group of plants well suited for highway and expressway planting in Santa Clara County. This is possible because in all the existing variety of plants, there still remains a visual, morphological and taxonomical distinction among them. The following lists and identification cards emphasize these distinctions. 1 of 6 MASTER PLANT LIST TREES Acacia decurrens: Green wattle Acacia longifolia: Sydney golden wattle Acacia melanoxylon: Blackwood acacia Acer macrophyllum: Bigleaf maple Aesculus californica: California buckeye Aesculus carnea: Red horsechestnut Ailanthus altissima: Tree-of-heaven Albizia julibrissin: Silk tree Alnus cordata: Italian alder Alnus rhombifolia: White alder Arbutus menziesii: Madrone Calocedrus decurrens: Incense cedar Casuarina equisetifolia: Horsetail tree Casuarina stricta: Coast beefwood Catalpa speciosa: Western catalpa Cedrus deodara: Deodar cedar Ceratonia siliqua: Carob Cinnamomum camphora: Camphor Cordyline australis: Australian dracena Crataegus phaenopyrum: Washington thorn Cryptomeria japonica: Japanese redwood Cupressus glabra: Arizona cypress Cupressus macrocarpa: Monterey cypress Eriobotrya japonica: Loquat Eucalyptus camaldulensis: Red gum Eucalyptus citriodora: Lemon-scented

Royal Zoological Society of S.A. Inc. Given my background, most people assume that I will have a strong preference for plants from the Northern Hemisphere and particularly Europe. The fact is that I have spent 3/5 th of my life in Australia and did my degree in Australia. Admittedly, I did my first training, in Horticulture, in Ireland, but most of my real experience has been gained in this country. During my time at the University of New England, where I worked as a Technician, while doing my BSc., I was fortunate to be able to travel quite extensively, collecting plants, throughout NSW and southern Queensland. On coming to Adelaide, as Horticultural Botanist at the Botanic Gardens of Adelaide, another opportunity opened up. My responsibility was to run the Technical and Advisory Section and also identify any un-named plants within the three Botanic Gardens, Adelaide, Wittunga and Mt. Lofty. I was also responsible for the seed collection and the seed exchange system for the Botanic Gardens. This allowed me to travel extensively throughout the semi-arid regions of South Australia, getting to know the flora and collecting seed. I have also been fortunate to travel extensively in various parts of the world, including the United Kingdom and Ireland, Europe, North America and South America and a little in South-East Asia. During these travels, I have been able to visit both natural areas, and botanic gardens and, more recently, a number of zoos.

  • New Zealand Plants in Australian Gardens Stuart Read
    New Zealand Plants in Australian Gardens Stuart Read Abstract: (11.6.2013): Raised in a large New Zealand garden full of native trees, plant lover Stuart Read was perhaps hard-wired to notice kiwi plants in Australian gardens. Over time he's pieced together a pattern of waves of fashion in their planting and popularity, reflecting scientific and horticultural expansionism, commercial and familial networks and connections across the Tasman. Stuart will examine a range of NZ plants found in old and younger Australian gardens, try to tease out some of the means by which they got here and why they remain popular. No cabbage, This constellation of asterisks Slaps and rustles Its tough tatters In the brisk breeze; Whispers of times past And ancient histories (Barbara Mitcalfe’s poem, ‘Ti Kouka’ (cabbage tree) catches well the distinctive skyline profile of this ubiquitous New Zealand export (in Simpson, 2000, 213) Introduction / overview New Zealand gardens have been introduced to and cultivated in Australian gardens from early in their ‘discovery’, trade and exchanges between the two colonies. Australian and other explorers, botanists, nurserymen, New Zealand settlers and others searched New Zealand’s coasts and bush, bringing plants into cultivation, export and commerce from early in the settlement’s colonization. New Zealand plants have had their ‘vogue’ periods, including as: A) - Economic plants (various timbers, kauri gum for shellacs and jewellery; flax for fibre, rope, cloth; greens for scurvy; poroporo for the contraceptive ‘the pill’); B) - Exotic ornamental imports into Australian gardens and beyond to English and European conservatories (and some warmer, southern) gardens and parks; C) - Depicted or carved as subjects of botanical and other artworks, commercial commodities.
