Ecological and Bacteriological Notes on Pitcher Plants and Certain Other Carnivorous Plants by John A. Lindquist Most of the material in these pages is based on my old (1975) M.S. thesis: Bacteriological and ecological observations on the northern pitcher plant, Sarracenia purpurea . Department of Bacteriology, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI. As of 1975, the carnivorous plants known as pitcher plants had been studied very little regarding their digestive activities and microbial associates. Some researchers considered the participation of bacteria in the foliar digestion of insects, but no isolations or identifications were made. My thesis research was undertaken to investigate, by enrichments, platings and isolations, various microbial groups within the pitcher leaf of Sarracenia purpurea , including those possibly active in the digestion of insects. The study was expanded to include observations on the plant and its habitat such as growth patterns of the leaves, insect associates and characterizations of the habitat as to nutrient availability. Relevant items appearing on these web pages: Photos of Sarracenia purpurea and other carnivorous plants.

Greetings and welcome, seeker of knowledge! Here you may learn about the ecology, cultivation, conservation, and taxonomy of carnivorous plants. The FAQ is presented in cooperation with The International Carnivorous Plant Society. I am the FAQ's principal author, but contributions are happily accepted from other people who are given full credit. Most of the thumbnails images in the FAQ link to larger images. Click on the photograph of the hungry Venus Flytrap to the right to see what I mean (go on, you can touch it!). If you would rather look at the FAQ pictures instead of read (the MTV generation, sigh), you can look at them where they are presently on display at Galleria Carnivora .

146. Native Plants Network - The following brief introduction on how to propagate native plants has been condensed from the Container Tree Nursery Manual, Volume 6 (USDA Forest Service http://nativeplants.for.uidaho.edu/network/general.asp

The following brief introduction on how to propagate native plants has been condensed from the Container Tree Nursery Manual, Volume 6 (USDA Forest Service, Agriculture Handbook 674, May 1999). Introduction - Plant propagation is both a science and an art. The science of plant propagation requires a knowledge of plant physiology, nursery cultural practices, and characteristics of the particular plant that you want to grow. The art of plant propagation cannot be taught in a book or classroom, however, because it consists of specific technical skills that must be acquired through innate ability or experience and often requires a certain "feel." Good plant pagators are said to have a "green thumb." Planning - Successful nursery management begins with planning. Crop planning is one of the most important, yet often neglected, aspects of seedling culture. The first phase of the planning process is to determine which propagation method will be most effective and economical for the crop species. Both the biology of the species and the objectives of the outplanting project must be considered. If it is possible to propagate a plant either by seed or vegetatively, then the amount of genetic variability that is desired in the crop must be considered. Figure 1.

Section 22 of the Act requires that the importation into New Zealand of any plant or plant product (or other regulated article) that could carry an unwanted organism (regulated pest) be covered by an IHS. Import health standards include the phytosanitary measures that must be implemented in the exporting country, during transit and during importation and quarantine in order to enable biosecurity clearance to be given. In keeping with the requirements of the FAO International Plant Protection Convention and the WTO Agreement on the Application of Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures, phytosanitary measures are only developed for regulated pests. The strength of any phytosanitary measures depends on the likelihood and consequences of the regulated pest being introduced into New Zealand.

Agafari Trees Baobab Trees Cunyati Trees Cylini Trees ... Back to the General Information Index Plant Life (Ur) Agafari Trees Short, squat light colored hardwoods, with a thick grey bark and knotted, twisted trunks; leaves are very thin and long, like limber needles, forming a canopy arrangement similar to a "weeping willow" but with fewer leaves. Baobab Trees Thick, dark maroon hardwoods, with dark crimson-and-grey bark; the trunk is somewhat bent, often branching into smaller limbs halfway up or less; leaves are similar to agafari, but purple in color, and a little wider. Cunyati Trees Small, oily-brown hardwoods, which rarely achieve a height of more than eight cords; dark brown bark and circular, yellowish-green leaves; produces a thickshelled nut which is prized more for its oil content than the taste. Cylini Trees Tall, slender softwoods (like pine), suitable for making stuff like furniture and parchment; light colored, with peeling grey-green bark; leaves are spear-shaped and serrated, and can slice bare skin open. Cynipri Trees Shorter cousins of the cylini, with a broader trunk with is more knotted and slightly darker, with an ugly olive-purple bark; leaves, as with cylini, are spear-shaped and serrated (can be dangerous) but are slightly longer and slimmer.

Ohio State University Extension Fact Sheet Plant Pathology 2021 Coffey Road, Columbus, OH 43212-1087 A General Health Management Guide for Indoor Plants HYG-3067-96 Stephen Nameth Nancy Taylor Jim Chatfield A great variety of plants are used indoors to enhance the beauty and soften the harshness of our working and living environments. There are many environments that we classify as "indoor." Indoor environments are not generally thought of as "natural" environments. Nevertheless, it is possible to maintain the health of plants in these environments for many months or years. Different kinds of plants require specific environmental and care needs to keep them healthy. Thus, an important aspect of managing the health of indoor plants is selecting the right plant for the indoor environment you have. Also, plants should be selected according to the care programs you are willing to undertake. Always buy conditioned or acclimated plants from reputable sources. Although the care of plants can sometimes be a matter of knowing the specific needs of the plant types selected, health management is also a matter of recognizing the general needs of plants and developing care programs that provide generally well-balanced environments. The plant will react to all of the elements of its environment simultaneously from day to day. When one element becomes imbalanced it may trigger a stress. Uncorrected stress will soon lead to poor plant health.

Repot in spring when plants become pot-bound. In years when not repotting topdress (again, in spring), removing the top 5cm of compost and replacing it with fresh. Water and nutrition Water freely in summer, but don’t allow the pot to stand in water. Water moderately in winter, allowing the surface to dry out partially between waterings. Mist leaves in early morning in summer, or stand on trays of moist ‘Hortag’ to increase humidity. Specialist fertilisers should be available from garden centres selling citrus plants, and should be applied following the manufacturer’s instructions. Use a high-nitrogen liquid feed plus trace elements from March-July. Then change to a balanced feed with trace elements until October. Don’t feed during winter, or for 5-6 weeks after repotting. Temperature Although Citrus prefer a cool winter period, when little growth occurs, they are not hardy in the UK and should be overwintered indoors. Minimum winter night temperatures vary with species:
