From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phlox

Phlox (pronounced /flɒks/ or "flocks"; from the Latin for a flame-colored flower, which is from the Greek φλόξ, meaning 'flame'; plural "phlox" or "phloxes") is a genus of 67 species of annual or perennial flowering plants. Some species flower in early spring while others flower in summer into fall. Most species are native to temperate North America but a few species are also from northeastern Asia. They are found growing in diverse habitats from alpine locations to open woodlands and prairies.

 

Phlox flowers range in color from pale blue to bright red to white. Some species such as Phlox glaberrima (Smooth Phlox) grow to 1.5 m tall, while others, such as Phlox stolonifera (Creeping Phlox), form low mats only a few centimetres in height.

 

The foliage of Phlox is sometimes eaten by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Dot Moth, Gazoryctra wielgusi, Hummingbird Hawk-moth and Schinia indiana (which feeds exclusively on P. pilosa). Phlox species are also a popular food source for groundhogs, rabbits and deer. The flowers, when fertilized, typically produce one relatively large seed.

 

Several species of phlox are commonly cultivated in gardens. Most cultivated phlox, with the notable exception of Drummond phlox, are perennial. Phlox cultivars are available in shades of white, purple, blue, pink, and yellow. Most are best grown in well-drained soil, exposed to partial shade to partial sun. Phlox are valued in the garden for their ability to attract butterflies.

This photographic portfolio entitled “ANCESTRAL LANDSCAPES” is the result of an incredible journey in Scotland through breathtaking natural landscapes. Scotland landscape is a permanent theater, a mysterious drama in which the initial plot seems to come from ancient feuds or the echo of legends. Contrasting like its climate, Scotland offers a range of light and shadow carried by the impetuousness of the elements. Weather reports are more like predicting the future than science. As frustrating as it may sound, it forces you to make your day unexpected. The turbulence of time exacerbates the green of the hills, the darkness of the mountains and the density of the ocean. The caledonian bad weather offers atmospheres that seem to come out of the most fantastic tales and legends. In this interplay of shades and contrasts, Scotland is a perpetual painting that offers aesthetes the violence of its brushstrokes. Consistently tackling the elements in Scotland grabs you literally and figuratively. The wind blows across the plains, the rain draws a curtain over the landscape and the proud mountains impress. Scotland is home to some of the most stunning landscapes I have ever seen. Shaped by landslides and tectonic movements that have completely sculpted their surroundings, these landscapes instantly immerse you in an almost supernatural fantasy world. One does not expect to discover such an exciting landscape. Vastness constantly echoes within us through our eyes.

 

These 39 pictures entitled "Colors of Fall in Yardley . . ." were all taken around my home in late October, pre-Hurricane Sandy. Number 7968 is a photo of the tree that came crashing down on two unsuspecting cars parked underneath it at the height of the hurricane.

 

Fall happens to be my favorite time of year and not just because pumpkin flavors are all the rage. From late September to early November, Mother Nature puts on her most spectacular show. Trees of all types slowly transition from their standard leaves to shades of red, orange, gold, brown, and even purple. Landscapes across the country pop with vibrant colors and serve as a brief reminder just how beautiful nature can be.

 

It's a great time for hiking and scenic drives and below are all the resources you need to make your trip happen. Whether you want to know just why leaves change their colors or are looking for where to see specific shades, the answers are here.

 

So Why Do Leaves Change Colors?

 

The answer lies in one word: chlorophyll. It's the chemical that gives leaves their green color. Chlorophyll is also responsible for photosynthesis - a process where plants turn water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and sugar. Confused? Let's back up to the basics.

 

Trees take water from the ground using their roots. They also take carbon dioxide from the air. But trees need oxygen and glucose to grow big and healthy. In order to do that, they use sunlight to turn the water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and glucose. That's photosynthesis. And chlorophyll helps make it happen.

 

When summer ends and autumn begins, there is less sunlight since the days get shorter. This is an important hint for trees and other plants to prepare themselves for the winter. Since there isn't enough light and water during the winter for photosynthesis, trees go into rest-mode and will feed off food they have stored up over summer. While processes shut down, chlorophyll starts to disappear from the leaves, taking away the green color. As the green fades, the leaves show other colors that have been there all along - yellow and orange. They have been hidden all summer by chlorophyll and during the fall, it is their time to shine!

 

You're probably wondering about the other signature colors of autumn - red, purple, and brown. Well, in some trees, such as maples, glucose is trapped in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. That glucose is turned into a red color from the sunlight and the cool nights of autumn. The brown color of trees, such as oaks, is made from tannin - a waste product left in the leaves.

 

The brilliance of colors you see every fall is directly related to weather conditions. The brightest colors are seen when late summer is dry, and autumn has bright sunny days and cool evenings. A good supply of rainfall also keeps the leaves on trees longer and helps to enhance the color.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weigela

Weigela is a small genus of about 12 species of deciduous shrubs in the family Caprifoliaceae, growing to 1-5 m tall. All are natives of eastern Asia.

 

The leaves are 5-15 cm long, ovate-oblong with an acuminate tip, and with a serrated margin. The flowers are 2-4 cm long, with a five-lobed white, pink, or red (rarely yellow) corolla, produced in small corymbs of several together in early summer. The fruit is a dry capsule containing numerous small winged seeds.

 

Weigela species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Brown-tail.

 

The genus is named after the German scientist Christian Ehrenfried Weigel.

The British Weigela national collection is held at Sheffield Botanical Gardens; along with the national collection of the closely related Diervilla genus.[1] The german Weigela national collection is held at Sichtungsgarten Weigela in Buckow, Maerkische Schweiz [2]

 

Several of the species are very popular ornamental shrubs in gardens, although species have been mostly superseded by hybrids (crosses between W. florida and other Asiatic species).

New Deal mural entitled "Harvest" was painted by Jay Risling in 1939. When the USPS moved out in 1968 the building ( and mural) went into private hands. The mural was ripped from the wall during renovations and stored in a city owned storage building for few years. It was later discovered by a city employee who gave it to the No Man's Land Museum in Goodwell where it has remained rolled up and stored since 1975. It was unrolled for the first time in almost 50 years in July 2024 in order to determine if restoration was possible. After some on site preparation, it was moved to an art conservators studio in Amarillo Texas in 2025 for full restoration. The main farmer and the 2 farm hands have been "in painted" to replace the loss of paint over the years.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geranium

 

Geranium is a genus of 422 species of flowering annual, biennial, and perennial plants that are commonly known as the cranesbills. It is found throughout the temperate regions of the world and the mountains of the tropics, but mostly in the eastern part of the Mediterranean region. These attractive flowers will grow in any soil as long as it is not waterlogged. Propagation is by semi-ripe cuttings in summer, by seed or by division in autumn or spring.

 

The species Geranium viscosissimum is considered to be protocarnivorous.

 

The name "cranesbill" derives from the appearance of the seed-heads, which have the same shape as the bill of a crane. The genus name is derived from the Greek γέρανος, géranos, or γερανός, geranós, crane. The long, palmately cleft leaves are broadly circular in form. Their rose, pink to blue or white flowers have 5 petals.

 

Cranesbills are eaten by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Brown-tail and Mouse Moth.

 

Confusingly, "geranium" is also the common name of members of the genus Pelargonium, which were formerly classified in the cranesbill genus. In the United States, true Geraniums are frequently distinguished from the less hardy Pelargoniums as (rather redundantly) "hardy geraniums" by gardeners and in the horticultural trade. One can make the distinction between the two by looking at the flowers: Geranium has symmetrical flowers, while Pelargonium has irregular or maculate petals. Other former members of the genus are now classified in genus Erodium, including the plants known as filarees in North America.

New Deal entitled "The Crossing" painted by G. Glenn Newell in 1940. He also painted a mural in Wallace, North Carolina that included the same rather poor bodied cattle.

  

The newsletter of United Federal (later Public) Workers of America Local 28 entitled “Off the Shelf” and later retitled “LC Newsletter” sought to keep its members at the Library of Congress abreast of issues facing them and actions taken by the union.

 

The United Federal Workers of America Local 28 at the Library of Congress was organized in July 1937 after the officers of the former American Federation of Government Employees local union resigned en masse.

 

The letter said in part:

 

“We, the undersigned, your representatives to the Board of Local No. 2 herewith surrender our offices and our membership in Federal Employees Union, Local No. 2. We take this step only after deep thought and consultation believing as firmly as ever in the value of unionism to Government workers and fully recognizing the disadvantage of a divided front

 

“Our decision to leave the N. F. F. E. [National Federation of Federal Employees] is the result not merely of our dissatisfaction with that organization but of the formation of another union which we believe offers us the opportunity of supporting the principles which we approve.

 

“This organization is the United Federal Workers of America, affiliated with the C.I.O. [Committee of Industrial Organizations]. Believing that the destiny of Government workers is bound up with that of other workers we feel that our place is in an organization which will unite Government employees with other sections of the labor movement instead of isolating them in a separate group.”

 

Local 28 put out a monthly newsletter and led fights for fairness in promotion through the use of seniority, against racial discrimination at the library, against forced overtime, and lobbied congressional committees for increased pay, among other issues.

 

In one instance, it successfully defended a Black employee, Seth Major, against a racially motivated dismissal. The union showed that Major was only guilty of demanding to be treated as an equal with Whites.

 

It was successful in lobbying, along with the National Negro Congress and the CIO, for the hiring of the first two Black professional grade employees at the Library.

 

The national union merged with the CIO’s state employees’ union in 1946 becoming the United Public Workers of America.

 

The activist union represented employees at the Library of Congress into the early 1950s before the national union succumbed to red-baiting during the 2nd Red Scare and dissolved in 1952.

 

Red-baiting of former Local 28 members continued after the dissolution of the UPWA with Sen. Joseph McCarthy seeking to deny a passport to William P Bundy in 1953, who was a member of Local 28 for two months and attended one meeting.

 

Marie Richardson Harris was indicted on loyalty oath violations in 1951. She worked briefly at the Library of Congress with non-classified materials for a few months in 1948 and again 1949 and at the time of her arrest was living in New York City and operating a dry cleaning establishment with her husband.

 

She was charged with being a member of the Communist Party and the National Negro Congress, both of which were designated as subversive organizations by the U.S. Attorney General and failing to disclose them. She was convicted and served 4 ½ years in prison.

 

AFSCME Local 2910 representing professional employees and AFSCME Local 2477 representing blue collar employees are currently active at the Library of Congress. Black Employees of the Library of Congress was founded in 1970 and waged a long fight against discrimination within the Library and made significant gains..

Since there isn't enough light and water during the winter for photosynthesis, trees go into rest-mode and will feed off food they have stored up over summer. While processes shut down, chlorophyll starts to disappear from the leaves, taking away the green color. As the green fades, the leaves show other colors that have been there all along - yellow and orange. They have been hidden all summer by chlorophyll and during the fall, it is their time to shine!

 

You're probably wondering about the other signature colors of autumn - red, purple, and brown. Well, in some trees, such as maples, glucose is trapped in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. That glucose is turned into a red color from the sunlight and the cool nights of autumn. The brown color of trees, such as oaks, is made from tannin - a waste product left in the leaves.

 

The brilliance of colors you see every fall is directly related to weather conditions. The brightest colors are seen when late summer is dry, and autumn has bright sunny days and cool evenings. A good supply of rainfall also keeps the leaves on trees longer and helps to enhance the color.
