Book Growth in Herbaceous Perennials

Download or read book Growth in Herbaceous Perennials written by Rie Nakajima and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several studies of herbaceous perennials have addressed the effects of environmental factors during and after production, inherent cold hardiness, and post-harvest handling procedures to enhance flowering and growth during establishment. The regrowth of both woody and herbaceous forage plants following establishment is reported to be directly related to reserve-nitrogen content. Plants with higher nitrogen reserves grow sooner and produce more growth than plants with low reserves. The first objective in my study, carried out in the greenhouse and outdoors, was to identify any relationship between initial plant size and the regrowth of fourteen herbaceous perennials from five nursery sources. Of the varieties analyzed, six showed differences in growth between nurseries when grown outdoors, but it appears this was not due to their initial plant size. The second objective was to determine whether reserve nitrogen (N) content or the level of reserved total nonstructural carbohydrates (TNC) had an effect on regrowth. In this greenhouse experiment, six out of nine varieties that had higher levels of reserve N per plant tended to grow more. In contrast, five varieties showed more growth with higher levels of reserve TNC per plant. This suggests that reserve nitrogen may have more effect than carbohydrates on the regrowth of perennial plants during establishment. The third objective was to determine the timing of N uptake from soil applied N after establishment. For this greenhouse experiment, double-labeled depleted ammonium nitrate was applied to plants of Astilbe chinensis 'Pumila' 10 d after they were transplanted in the greenhouse. The uptake started soon after the application; 40% of the 15N was detected by Day 10, and then leveled off. This study suggests that herbaceous and woody perennials are similar in their requirement for reserve N for new growth. In general, the growth of herbaceous perennials appeared to be related to reserve N content rather than to initial plant size or levels of stored carbohydrates. However, this is preliminary study, and more studies are necessary for further investigation. regrowth of perennial plants during establishment.

Book The Prairie Gardener s Go To Guide for Perennials

Download or read book The Prairie Gardener s Go To Guide for Perennials written by Janet Melrose and published by TouchWood Editions. This book was released on 2023-04-05 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The eighth book in the Guides for the Prairie Gardener series is all about those reliable, grounded plants you can count on: perennials. Perennials are those species whose stems and leaves die back to their crowns each fall, but whose roots remain alive throughout the non-growing months. They include showy flowers like peonies, poppies, lilies, clematis, and lupine, but also edibles like asparagus, fiddlehead ferns, sunchokes, and rhubarb. In this guide prairie gardening experts Janet Melrose and Sheryl Normandeau answer questions like What are the best perennials for building biodiversity in my garden? What’s the difference between species, variety, cultivar, and nativar? What kinds of perennials can I grow in containers? When and how do I divide plants once they’re well established? How do I keep enthusiastic re-seeders from taking over? Which of my perennial babies need to be brought inside for the winter? The pair dedicate a chapter to perennial vegetables and another to mitigating common pests and diseases. The final chapter is a perennial hall of fame, an extended list of recommended plantings for colour, native species, rock gardens, ground cover, fragrance, spring champions, and all-season displays. Janet and Sheryl give you the information you need to make your perennial garden as successful as you can while promoting biodiversity and creating a healthy habitat for pollinators and wildlife.

Book Perennial Crops for Food Security

Download or read book Perennial Crops for Food Security written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2018-06-07 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication presents the latest research in perennial crop breeding and programmes, and provides direction on where the field of perennial crop is heading. Many production systems and agricultural practices are no longer sustainable today as their effects on soils, water, biodiversity, and livelihood are significant. Mainstreaming the use of perennial crops into current practices can contribute to stabilize fragile soils and maintain natural processes essential to obtain stable and high yields. To face the challenges and risks of the twenty-first century, increasing the perenniality of crops and agricultural systems should become a larger research, development and policy focus.
