Munro
A Munro () is defined as a mountain in Scotland with a height over , and which is on the Scottish Mountaineering Club (SMC) official list of Munros; there is no explicit topographical prominence requirement. The best known Munro is Ben Nevis (Beinn Nibheis), the highest mountain in the British Isles at . Munros are named after Sir Hugh Munro, 4th Baronet (1856–1919), who produced the first list of such hills, known as ''Munro's Tables'', in 1891. Also included were what Munro considered lesser peaks, now known as Munro Tops, which are also over 3,000 feet but are lower than the nearby primary mountain. The publication of the original list is usually considered to be the epoch event of modern peak bagging. The list has been the subject of subsequent variation and as of 10 December 2020, the Scottish Mountaineering Club has listed 282 Munros and 226 Munro Tops. "Munro bagging" is the activity of climbing all the listed Munros. As of 31 December 2021, 7,098 people had reported ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Free State (province)
The Free State, known as Orange Free State until the 28th of June 1995 when its name was changed, is a province of South Africa. Its capital is Bloemfontein, which is also South Africa's judicial capital. Its historical origins lie in the Boer republic called the Orange Free State and later Orange Free State Province. History The current borders of the province date from 1994 when the Bantustans were abolished and reincorporated into South Africa. It is also the only one of the four original provinces of South Africa not to undergo border changes, apart from the reincorporation of Bantustans, and its borders date from before the outbreak of the Boer War. Law and government The provincial government consists of a premier, an executive council of ten ministers, and a legislature. The provincial assembly and premier are elected for five-year terms, or until the next national election. Political parties are awarded assembly seats based on the percentage of votes each party receive ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Fargesia Dracocephala
''Fargesia dracocephala'' is a woody bamboo native to central China. It is known in Chinese as ''longtou jianzhu'' (), meaning ''dragon head Fargesia''. The scientific name is derived from Ancient Greek and has the same meaning. It is found at high elevations in the south of Gansu, western Hubei, southern Shaanxi and northern Sichuan Sichuan (; zh, c=, labels=no, ; zh, p=Sìchuān; alternatively romanized as Szechuan or Szechwan; formerly also referred to as "West China" or "Western China" by Protestant missions) is a province in Southwest China occupying most of the .... The plant is a significant source of food for the giant panda. There is a bamboo cultivated in the west sold under the same name, but it is actually a recently described species, namely '' Fargesia apicirubens''. Confusingly, the most common cultivar of ''F. dracocephala'' is sometimes sold in the west under the name '' Fargesia rufa'', which is a different species. When properly designated, it ap ...

Fargesia Denudata
''Fargesia'' is a genus of flowering plants in the grass family. These bamboos are native primarily to China, with a few species in Vietnam and in the eastern Himalayas. Some species are cultivated as ornamentals, with common names including umbrella bamboo and fountain bamboo. They are medium to small mountain clumping bamboos, native to alpine conifer forests of East Asia, from China south to Vietnam and west to the eastern slopes of the Himalayas. They are known in Chinese as ''jian zhu'' (), meaning "arrow bamboo". The scientific name was given in honour of the French missionary and amateur botanist Père Paul Guillaume Farges (1844–1912). Fargesias are some of the world's hardiest bamboos, but they do not spread vigorously. Common bamboos in the genus ''Fargesia'' are essential foods for giant pandas, and large-scale flowering of its species has had a devastating effect on panda populations. Giant panda habitat will therefore need at least two species of ''Fargesia'', t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Pleioblastus
''Pleioblastus'' is an East Asian genus of monopodial bamboos in the grass family Poaceae. They are native to China and Japan, and naturalized in scattered places in Korea, Europe, New Zealand, and the Western Hemisphere. The plant spreads by vigorous underground rhizomes which run along just beneath the soil surface, producing plantlets at the nodes. These can be used to propagate new plants, but if not removed they can become invasive. The species ''Pleioblastus variegatus'' (green and cream stripes), and ''P. viridistriatus'' (green and yellow stripes) have gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit. Genetic research suggests that this genus may properly be part of the genus ''Arundinaria''. ;Species ;formerly included see ''Acidosasa Ampelocalamus Chimonocalamus Drepanostachyum Oligostachyum Pseudosasa Sasaella Sinobambusa Yushania ''Yushania'' is a genus of bamboo in the grass family.
