Garden Botany Plants Threatened by Collection While the main threat to plants is loss of habitat, commercial collection from the wild continues to decrease populations of some species to the point of endangerment. Although the commercial propagation of plants has increased dramatically in recent decades (for example, the vast majority of the more than 1 billion bulbs sold in the U.S. each year are now propagated), national and international trade of wild plants continues, usually due to the difficulty of propagating certain species and to a lack of awareness on the part of consumers as to the origin - wild or propagated - of the plants they purchase. The Signs of a Wild-Collected Plant To avoid encouraging the commercial trade of wild-collected plants, gardeners are advised to pass up any specimen that shows one of the following signs: Roots that have been compressed into a pot.

Garden Botany Plant/Animal Relationships Plants and animals evolved together, so it is not surprising that there are many complex plant/animal relationships. This process of interdependent evolution of two or more species is called coevolution. Some relationships are beneficial to both parties, while others have a clear benefit for one at the expense, or even death, of the other. Four important plant/animal interactions are explored here: plant/herbivore, plant/pollinator, plant/disperser, and other examples of mutualism. Herbivores and Their Food Plants Bison, sheep, and other grazers - Succulent forbs, grasses, grass-like plants

    Extractions: The Watkinson Library holds many important illustrated botanical works. A checklist of "Botanical Imprints in the Watkinson Library to 1800" (Watkinson Library Guide No.2) by Jeffrey H. Kaimowitz was published in 1982. The current exhibition was organized to highlight the nineteenth-century illustrated botanical imprints in the Watkinson Library. The nineteenth century reached a high level of achievement in the art of botanical illustration. The sciences of botany and medicine, fostered by expeditions around the world, had utilized the art of the scientific illustrator for some time. Flower painting and art with botanical subjects, however, were newer and the combination of art and botany produced some of the most beautiful books and periodicals ever published. These include general treatises on botany (including the illustration of the "new" Linnaean system of classification), medical botany, books documenting scientific expeditions, books illustrating certain species or families of plants (such as roses, orchids, or ferns), decorative flower books, and periodicals dealing with floriculture and related fields. While most book illustrations before the nineteenth century were woodcuts and copperplate engravings, additional print techniques were introduced in the nineteenth century including stipple engraving, aquatint, mezzotint, uncolored and hand-colored lithography and chromolithography. The perfection of stipple engraving, which made more subtle variations possible, was particularly well suited to botanical illustration. Lithography, invented at the end of the eighteenth century, involved drawing directly on the stone rather than cutting or etching the plate. An example, exhibited here, is the largest botanical book published with lithographic plates, James Bateman's

Room #8 Orchids (Orchidaceae) Part of this room is made up of orchids, one of the most important families in the tropics, where there are an incredible number of both epiphytes and terrestrial species (in Wisconsin there are over 50 species of orchids, all terrestrial). These plants exhibit remarkable adaptations, often with convergent characteristics. Note the thick xeromorphic leaves of some of the orchids. The thin leaves of terrestrial, deciduous forest orchids such as Cypripedium (Lady-Slipper) can just as well be said to be convergent to the dominant leaf type of the deciduous forest plants. Orchids are usually very specific as to pollinators and not all are showy and colorful. The seeds are very tiny and are provided with little tails of air-filled, blister-like cells to aid in wind dispersal. They often have swollen pseudobuls for water storage. Oncidium orchids are characteristicly epiphytic in the Neotropical wet and cloud forests. They possess special cells on roots and stems for water uptake and retention. Like all orchids, the flowers are intricately arranged and have specialized forms of insect (often bee) pollination. The seeds are numerous and light, ideal for dispersal to branches and stems of host trees.

    Extractions: wstern@botany.ufl.edu After a rather undistinguished career in high school, where I majored in vocational agriculture, I enlisted in the U.S. Navy and saw duty in the U.S. and on Guam during WWII. I enrolled in Rutgers University where I majored in botany (I was the only botany major) and minored in Zoology. Then it was off to the University of Illinois where I received both the M.S. and Ph.D. in botany. I received an instructorship then at the Yale School of Forestry after which I joined the Smithsonian Institution as Curator. I subsequently became Chairman of the Smithsonian's Department of Botany. During this time I took leave of absence for a year to work for the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations in the Philippines. I left the Smithsonian to become Professor of Botany at the University of Maryland and during that time I served the National Science Foundation as Program Director for Systematic Biology. I joined the University of Florida in 1979 as Chairman of the Department of Botany and Professor. I served in the former post until 1985. During these several appointments, I engaged in field work in Panama, Dominica, Jamaica, Venezuela, Philippines, western United States, and Florida Keys. My research interests were originally in the application of wood anatomy to the phylogeny of dicotyledons, however, for the last 15 years, I have turned my attention to the vegetative anatomy and phylogeny of orchids. Ah, the lure of orchids. Not only are these my research passion, but my home-grown avocation. The challenge of bringing them to flower in the alien environment of greenhouse and garden keeps me both enthralled and busy. On several occasions I have collected wild orchids, namely, in Jamaica. I am also interested in growing native Florida trees and shrubs, and I have assembled a modest collection in my garden. Because they are adapted to our climate, they grow well regardless of artificial watering and fertilizing; a great way to reduce garden-tending. I enjoy living in Gainesville for many reasons, but among these is the great variety of plants that will survive and grow here. It's a great place for the plant lover.
