Cochliasanthus
''Cochliasanthus caracalla'' is a leguminous flowering plant in the family Fabaceae that originates in tropical South America and Central America. The species is named ''caracalla'', a corruption of the Portuguese caracol, meaning snail. This perennial vine (when grown in a climate without frost) has fragrant flowers said to be reminiscent of hyacinths - with a distinctive curled shape, giving rise to the common names corkscrew vine, snail vine, snail creeper, snailflower or snail bean. It is the only member of the genus ''Cochliasanthus'' and was formerly considered to belong to the genus ''Vigna''. Two very different plant species are sold and cultivated under this one name. One plant is the true ''Cochliasanthus caracalla''. The other, also called "''Phaseolus giganteus''" (a horticultural name, not validly published), [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Christoph Jacob Trew
Christoph Jacob Trew (16 April 1695 in Lauf an der Pegnitz – 18 July 1769) was a German botanist. He was originally a city solicitor, court physician, Count Palatine of the Holy Roman Empire, an advisor to the Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach. He also had an academic passion for botany. He was a member of the Royal Society of London, the Berlin Academy, and the Florentine Botanical Society. His interest in botany then led him to sponsor the publication of illustrated botanical books. In 1732, Christoph Jacob Trew saw some of Georg Ehret's drawings. Ehret was a botanist and illustrator, from Heidelberg, Germany. Liking them, Trew then became Ehret's patron. Ehret sent many paintings to Trew over the next few years. Between 1750-1773 Trew began ''Plantae Selectae Quarum Imagines'' (it was published in Nuremberg). It has many illustrations by Georg Ehret. Trew wrote the plant descriptions. Up to 16 new names of plants were published by Trew in the series; including ''Cochliasant ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Phaseoleae
The plant tribe Phaseoleae is one of the subdivisions of the legume subfamily Faboideae, in the unranked NPAAA clade. This group includes many of the beans cultivated for human and animal food, most importantly from the genera ''Glycine'', '' Phaseolus'', and ''Vigna''. Taxonomy Although the tribe as defined in the late 20th century does not appear to be monophyletic, there does seem to be a monophyletic group which roughly corresponds to the tribe Phaseoleae (with some changes). The earlier concept of Phaseoleae is paraphyletic relative to the tribes Abreae and Psoraleeae, plus most of Millettieae and parts of Desmodieae. The following subtribes and genera are recognized by the USDA: ollow tribe links and genera lists for the accepted genera in each tribe/ref> ;Cajaninae * '' Adenodolichos'' Harms * ''Bolusafra'' Kuntze * ''Cajanus'' Adans. * ''Carrissoa'' Baker f. * ''Chrysoscias'' E.

Vigna
''Vigna'' is a genus of plants in the legume family, Fabaceae, with a pantropical distribution.Aitawade, M. M., et al. (2012)Section ''Ceratotropis'' of subgenus ''Ceratotropis'' of ''Vigna'' (Leguminosae–Papilionoideae) in India with a new species from northern Western Ghats. ''Rheedea'' 22(1), 20-27. It includes some well-known cultivated species, including many types of beans. Some are former members of the genus ''Phaseolus''. According to ''Hortus Third'', ''Vigna'' differs from ''Phaseolus'' in biochemistry and pollen structure, and in details of the Style (botany), style and stipules. ''Vigna'' is also commonly confused with the genus ''Dolichos (plant), Dolichos'', but the two differ in Stigma (botany), stigma structure. ''Vigna'' are herbs or occasionally shrub, subshrubs. The leaves are pinnate, divided into 3 leaflets. The inflorescence is a raceme of yellow, blue, or purple pea flowers. The fruit is a legume pod of varying shape containing seeds.

Greenhouse
A greenhouse (also called a glasshouse, or, if with sufficient heating, a hothouse) is a structure with walls and roof made chiefly of Transparent ceramics, transparent material, such as glass, in which plants requiring regulated climatic conditions are grown.These structures range in size from small sheds to industrial-sized buildings. A miniature greenhouse is known as a cold frame. The interior of a greenhouse exposed to sunlight becomes significantly warmer than the external temperature, protecting its contents in cold weather. Many commercial glass greenhouses or hothouses are high tech production facilities for vegetables, flowers or fruits. The glass greenhouses are filled with equipment including screening installations, heating, cooling, and lighting, and may be controlled by a computer to optimize conditions for plant growth. Different techniques are then used to manage growing conditions, including air temperature, relative humidity and vapour-pressure deficit, in ord ...

Burpee Seeds
Burpee Seeds and Plants, officially W. Atlee Burpee & Co., is an American Seed company, seed and plant company that was founded by Washington Atlee Burpee in Pennsylvania in 1876. History Early years (1876-1915) W. Atlee Burpee & Company was founded in 1876 by Washington Atlee Burpee in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, after starting a mail-order chicken business in 1876. The company expanded to selling garden seeds, farm supplies, tools and hogs after customers began asking for seeds they had grown in their native farms. In 1888, the family farm, Fordhook Farm in Doylestown, Pennsylvania, was established as a family farm and crop field trials after Burpee began traveling to Europe to collect seeds which needed to be adapted to North American climates. The farm was likely the first experimental test field station in the United States. In 1900, distant cousin Luther Burbank visited the farm inspiring him to create his own experiments. He later created additional research stations, i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Kudzu
Kudzu (; also called Japanese arrowroot or Chinese arrowroot) is a group of climbing, coiling, and trailing deciduous perennial vines native to much of East Asia, Southeast Asia, and some Pacific islands, but invasive species, invasive in many parts of the world, primarily North America. The vine densely climbs over other plants and trees and grows so rapidly that it smothers and kills them by blocking most of the sunlight. The plants are in the genus ''Pueraria'', in the pea family Fabaceae, subfamily Faboideae. The name is derived from the Japanese language, Japanese name for the plant East Asian arrowroot, (''Pueraria montana'' var. ''lobata''), . Where these plants are Naturalisation (biology), naturalized, they can be invasive species, invasive and are considered noxious weeds. The plant is edible, but often sprayed with herbicides. Taxonomy and nomenclature The name kudzu describes one or more species in the genus ''Pueraria'' that are closely related, and some of them ...
