Emerocallidi - Hemerocallis: Il loro nome scientifico deriva dal greco e significa "bellezze di un solo giorno"; ciò è dovuto al fatto che i fiori di queste piante sbocciano al mattino e durano solamente per una giornata chiudendosi poi, verso sera.

 

Hémérocalles: Beauté d’un jour! Une fleur magnifique qui a inspiré de nombreux poètes, mais aussi de grands peintres comme Claude Monet !

 

The name Hemerocallis comes from the Greek words ἡμέρα (hēmera) "day" and καλός (kalos) "beautiful"and called poetically: Beauty for a day! A magnificent flower that has inspired many poets, but also great painters like Claude Monet. The flowers of most Daylilies, open in early morning and wither during the following night, possibly replaced by another one on the same scape the next day.

Scientific classification:

Kingdom:Plantae

Clade:Tracheophytes

Clade:Angiosperms

Clade:Eudicots

Clade:Rosids

Order:Myrtales

Family:Myrtaceae

Genus:Melaleuca

Species:M. citrina

 

Synonyms: Metrosideros citrina, Callistemon lanceolatus, Callistemon citrinus

 

Origin: Bottlebrushes are members of the genus Melaleuca and belong to the family Myrtaceae. They are closely related to paperbark melaleucas, which also have 'bottlebrush' shaped flower spikes. Most Bottlebrushes occur in the east and south-east of Australia. Two species occur in the south-west of Western Australia and four species in New Caledonia. Bottlebrushes can be found growing from Australia's tropical north to the temperate south. They often grow in damp or wet conditions such as along creek beds or in areas which are prone to floods.

This species is probably the best known bottlebrush and is widely cultivated. The bright red flower-spikes appear in summer and autumn. Crimson Bottlebrush grows well in wet conditions and usually reaches 4 m. Plants should be lightly pruned and fertilised after flowering. Neglected or mis-shapen plants respond to hard pruning.

Flowering Lantana shrubs are found throughout the Alligator Alley Trail in Circle B Bar Reserve located in Polk County in the City of Lakeland Florida U.S.A.

 

The most common lantana is a non-native species, Lantana camara. It is easy to find in local nurseries and garden supply stores. That said, choosing the right lantana variety is not always so simple. The UF/IFAS Assessment of Non-Native Plants lists Lantana camara as invasive. This means UF/IFAS does not recommend it for North, Central, or South Florida. It quickly invades disturbed sites and is toxic to livestock. Gardeners should take care when choosing a lantana for the landscape.

Water lilies are a well studied clade of plants because their large flowers with multiple unspecialized parts were initially considered to represent the floral pattern of the earliest flowering plants, and later genetic studies confirmed their evolutionary position as basal angiosperms. Analyses of floral morphology and molecular characteristics and comparisons with a sister taxon, the family Cabombaceae, indicate, however, that the flowers of extant water lilies with the most floral parts are more derived than the genera with fewer floral parts. Genera with more floral parts, Nuphar, Nymphaea, Victoria, have a beetle pollination syndrome, while genera with fewer parts are pollinated by flies or bees, or are self- or wind-pollinated Thus, the large number of relatively unspecialized floral organs in the Nymphaeaceae is not an ancestral condition for the clade.

Photographed the Big Sagebrush on one of the walking trails at the Echo Canyon Welcome Center Rest Area Westbound I-80 in Summit County Utah U.S.A.

 

Also known by the names Common Sagebrush, Blue/Black Sagebrush or Mountain Sagebrush, it is a shrub or small tree from the family Asteraceae. It is a coarse, hardy silvery-grey bush with inconspicuous yellow-green flowers and grows in arid sections of the western United States and Western Canada. It is the primary vegetation across vast areas of the Great Basin desert and is an indicator species for high desert (above 1,500 ft.). Like others in this genus, it has highly aromatic foliage. Unlike some others of this genus, it develops a true woody trunk and branches. In maturity the twisted trunk can become picturesque and suitable for bonsai treatment. Along rivers or in other relatively wet areas, sagebrush can grow as tall as 3 meters (10 feet), but is more typically 1-2 meters tall.

Binomial name

Rosa lucieae

Franch. & Rochebr. ex Crép.

Rosa lucieae (syn. Rosa wichurana), the memorial rose, is a species of rose native to eastern Asia.

 

Description

It is a woody, semi-evergreen shrub, with long trailing thorny branches of glossy green leaves, and single five-petalled white flowers with prominent yellow stamens in Summer; followed by small dark red hips. It can grow to 6 m (20 ft). It is named after the German botanist Max Ernst Wichura (1817–1866), with the suffix -iana.

 

Uses

While it is valued as a garden plant in its own right, R. lucieae is also a parent of several rose hybrids, notably 'Dorothy Perkins', 'Albéric Barbier', 'New Dawn' and 'Albertine'. Its vigorous, rambling habit makes it particularly suitable for forming an impenetrable barrier at ground level, or for scrambling up large trees. It has been introduced to the United States.

Epipactis palustris

Da Wikipedia, l'enciclopedia libera.

  

La elleborina palustre (nome scientifico Epipactis palustris è una piccola pianta erbacea perenne dai delicati fiori, appartenente alla famiglia delle Orchidaceae

 

Le Orchidaceae è una delle famiglie più vaste della divisione tassonomica delle Angiosperme; comprende oltre 500 generi e più di 20000 specie. Il genere Epipactis comprende circa 70 specie diffuse in Europa, in Asia e in America, delle quali meno di una decina sono spontanee della nostra flora. Epipactis insieme al genere Cephalanthera appartiene alla tribù delle Neottieae, una delle quattro tribù nelle quali la famiglia delle Orchidaceae è stata suddivisa (relativamente alle specie spontanee del nostro territorio)

  

Postcard from the Garden

Narcissus jonquilla, commonly called jonquil, is a bulbous perennial which was first recorded around 1750. It is a late-flowering species (end of April-May) which is native to Spain and Portugal, but has over time become naturalized in other parts of the world including much of Europe, Canada and some parts of the U.S. A jonquil typically grows to 12” tall and features 1-5 usually fragrant flowers per stem, each flower having spreading perianth segments (petals) and a small corona (cup). Flower color is golden yellow. Narrow, rush-like, dark green leaves appear in upright clumps of 2-4.

 

Species plants are the main parent of many cultivars now grouped within Division VII for Jonquilla Narcissus.

 

Genus name honors a beautiful youth who became so entranced with his own reflection that he pined away and the gods turned him into this flower.

 

Specific epithet jonquilla comes from the Spanish common name for this plant, jonquillo, which means "little rush" and refers to the narrow, rush-like leaves

Many other fruits are also wonderful in their season, but the pear at its finest can be so much more exceptional in terms of its luscious texture, richness of taste, and its fragrances reminiscent of rose water, musk, and vanilla.

Pears grow in the Alcinous' orchard, in The Odyssey:

"A LARGE ORCHARD of four acres, where trees hang

their greenery on high, the pear and the

pomegranate, the apple with its glossy burden, the

sweet fig and luxuriant olive ... Pear after

pear, apple after apple, cluster on cluster of grapes,

and fig upon fig, are always coming to perfection ..."

The Odyssey by Homer, written 800 BC
