Les "angiospermes" -- autrement dit les plantes à fleurs -- représentent plus de 90 % des espèces végétales terrestres. Pourtant leur origine reste floue. Elle est généralement datée de quelque 130 millions d'années, au Crétacé. Cependant, certains indices laissent penser que les plantes à fleurs seraient plus âgées. Des grains de pollen d'angiospermes ont été trouvés en Suisse dans des roches bien antérieures, découverte qui vient renforcer cette hypothèse.

Orchid flowers - Grammatophyllum stapeliiflorum

 

The Magnolia possess some of the most primitive fruit among angiosperms.

Their fruit are cone shaped, woody, and aggregate, and they are approximately 3-8 inches long.

 

Inside are the red seeds.

The leaves can be used as bay-leaves.

My friend Dave Lawrence and I travelled to a location in the Coast Range, at 2200' elevation, to search for a species of Mariposa Lily, a California endemic, neither of us had previously seen, The morning brought low elevation clouds (marine layer), and the area was wet and cold. The lilies were folded up tightly and the only flower image I saved from the morning shoot was this one. Another expedition is needed to find the flowers unfurled.

The Poppy is an angiosperm or flowering plant of the family Papaveraceae. Ornamental poppies are grown for their colourful flowers; some varieties of poppy are used as food, whilst other varieties produce the powerful medicinal alkaloid opium which has been used since ancient times to create analgesic and narcotic medicinal and recreational drugs. Following the trench warfare of the 1st World War which took place in the poppy fields of Flanders, red poppies have become a symbol of remembrance of soldiers who have died during wartime.

Poppy flowers have 4 to 6 petals, many stamens forming a conspicuous whorl in the centre of the flower and an ovary consisting of from 2 to many fused carpels. Poppies can grow to be over 4 feet tall, and 6 inches across. The petals are showy, may be of almost any colour and some have markings. The petals are crumpled in the bud and as blooming finishes; the petals often lie flat before falling away. The poppy will become dormant after blooming. Poppies are in full bloom late spring to early summer.

Porte: Arbustivo . Arbusto perennifolio hasta 4 m de alto.

 

Descripción botánica

 

Hojas: lineales, lanceoladas, alternas y coriáceas de color verde grisáceo. La variedad 'Imperiaiis' posee hojas de mayor tamaño.

 

Flores rojas en espigas brillantes. Hojas de color verde grisaceo con aroma de limon,tono rojizo de jovenes.

 

Muy resistente y puede desarrollarse en terrenos muy pobres.

 

Luminosidad: pleno sol

 

Resistente a las heladas .En climas fríos es plantada generalmente en paredes orientadas a gran insolación dado que no soporta el frío en exceso.

 

Sustrato: permeable y preferentemente libre de cal y prefiere el sustrato ácido especial utilizado para rododendros (ph proximo a 6), fértiles y bien drenados

 

Riego abundante en verano y muy poco en invierno.

 

Poda: los tallos demasiado largos tras la floración para ir dando forma a la planta.

y las florescencias para conseguir mejor floración en otoño.

 

Multiplicación .

 

Las semillas germinan sin dificultad pero la descendencia es muy dispar y muchas plantas no ofrecerán flores ornamentales.

 

- El método de propagación adecuado es el de estacas con hojas de madera parcialmente madura, las cuales enraizan con bastante facilidad en invernadero.

 

Plagas: Araña roja, Pulgón, Cochinilla algodonosa. Rociar con los productos específicos.

 

Dificultad: Planta relativamente fácil de mantener en el exterior aunque un poco más complicada en el interior, la clave es mantener una atmósfera húmeda.

Actinocephalus is a genus of plants in the Eriocaulaceae, first described in 2004. The entire genus is endemic to Brazil.

 

It was formerly regarded as part of the related genus Paepalanthus, but recent studies have suggested that the two groups are better separated. (from Wikipedia)

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.

Bird's-foot Trefoil (Lotus corniculatus) photographed alongside the Domtar Overlook section of the Bridge to Bridge Trail in Mountjoy Township located in the City of Timmins Northeastern Ontario Canada

 

Birdsfoot trefoil is a moderately long-lived herbaceous perennial legume. It has a well developed, branching, tap-like root with side roots near the soil surface. Most cultivars are erect and

grow to a height of 2 to 3 feet. The stems are slender, branch well, and are moderately leafy. Leaves are smooth and consist of 5 leaflets. The bloom is made up of a cluster of bright yellow flowers arranged in a whorl at the end of the flowering stems. When ripe, the brown seed pods extend outward from the stalk

and look like a bird's foot. The plant remains green and succulent during and after seed ripening.

A close-up view of the very top flower on the orchid from the previous shot.

 

We had seen this orchid very early on in the trip but on subsequent walks down the Medieval path, we did not notice it again until near the end of the visit, by which time more of the flowers had opened including this one.
