Charlie Dimmock and Alan Titchmarsh with television programmes such as Charlie's Wildlife Gardens, Ground Force, Gardeners' World and Charlie's Garden Army actively encourage gardeners to attract wildlife to their gardens and to grow wild flowers. As the countryside changes and diminishes many of us like to create a miniature countryside in our own gardens.

45. Native Plants For A California Garden, Easy Landscape Design With Native Plants.
    Enter information on a form to find native plants suitable to California garden and landscape design.  
    http://www.mynativeplants.com/
    
    Extractions: This software is provided free by Las Pilitas Nursery, with nurseries in Santa Margarita and Escondido You can go straight to the searching, Search For Plants , or continue reading for a deeper understanding. To get the full benefit, design the garden using the full search for each garden plot and then filter the resulting native plants by using the hyperlinks to read about each and print out the ones you think will work for your garden design. "When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe." John Muir (1869) After almost 30 years of fighting with native plants, planting hundreds of gardens, we've come to the conclusion that James Lovelock's Gaia does have meaning as does Clements 'complex organism'. The 'whole' concept can be very useful in putting together a small scale system in a garden. We've observed it in many environments, many gardens, landscapes, and ecosystems. Put the whole together right, and the garden becomes self-sustaining and stable.

46. Wildflower Identification
    A tool to identify wildflowers by answering questions such as number of petals, color, size of bloom and type of leaves.  
    http://www.realtimerendering.com/flowers/flowers.html
    
    Extractions: Quick links: This is an identification program for wildflowers in the northeastern and north-central parts of United States and adjacent Canada (if you live on the West Coast, try Reny's Wildflowers ). Fill out the form as best as you can and you'll find which wildflowers match. It's better to start with a few characteristics you are sure about, then add more as needed. Use the "Back" button to go back and add (or subtract) characteristics. If you want to see all the flowers in the database, simply hit "Identify" without checking any boxes. Some books that can help include: Wildflower Leaf Characteristics: see this image (from Wikipedia ) for a useful description of the leaf terminology used below. Check the characteristics that you see (you can always hit "Back" and change these later).

    Covers the history of choosing the state flower of Texas, cultivation pointers, lore, and research in progress.  
    http://aggie-horticulture.tamu.edu/archives/parsons/flowers/bluebonnet/bluebonne
    
    Extractions: TEXAS COOPERATIVE EXTENSION Bluebonnets have been loved since man first trod the vast prairies of Texas. Indians wove fascinating folk tales around them. The early-day Spanish priests gathered the seeds and grew them around their missions. This practice gave rise to the myth that the padres had brought the plant from Spain, but this cannot be true since the two predominant species of bluebonnets are found growing naturally only in Texas and at no other location in the world. As historian Jack Maguire so aptly wrote, "It's not only the state flower but also a kind of floral trademark almost as well known to outsiders as cowboy boots and the Stetson hat." He goes on to affirm that "The bluebonnet is to Texas what the shamrock is to Ireland, the cherry blossom to Japan, the lily to France, the rose to England and the tulip to Holland." The ballad of our singing governor, the late W. Lee O'Daniel, goes, "you may be on the plains or the mountains or down where the sea breezes blow, but bluebonnets are one of the prime factors that make the state the most beautiful land that we know. Read about the Legend of the Pink Bluebonnet.

    http://www.gardenweb.com/cyberplt/plants/wildflowers.html
    
    Extractions: Predicting sequence of bloom or whats up and blooming at any particular time in a given area is difficult due to differences in elevations, canopy, orientation to the sun etc., etc. There is however a somewhat logical progression in bloom of different plant genera. One of the first spring wildflowers to bloom, isn't really a native plant at all. Tussilago fafara or "coltsfoot" as it is commonly referred to, is native to Europe and Asia and was brought here by the early settlers as a medicinal herb. The Latin name for the genus indicates its medicinal use. Any clue? How bout RobiTUSSin Get it, cough medicine! See.... Latin is easy and makes sense. You can recognize the flowers very easily as they look like Dandelions. Anyway, you can find T.f. in roadside ditches almost everywhere. It, like many other introduced "exotics" have become weedy nuisances like kudzu, autumn olive, multiflora rose, japanese honeysuckle, etc. Ooops, I'm rambling again. So what else is up in the woods you ask? How about Jeffersonia diphylla . Named in honor of Tommy Jefferson, our second President, this lovely woodland native has dainty white flowers that are very early and very ephemeral (not long lasting, the flowers that is), although the foliage lasts all summer. Any idea why the specific epithet (or second word in the scientific name) is diphylla Well the common name gives it away "Twinleaf."

David Beaulieu zSB(3,3) Plant taxonomy classifies goldenrod (sometimes misspelled "golden rod") in the genus, Solidago . Many species exist; Audubon's Field Guide to New England states that there are more than a dozen in that region. One of the more widespread and more striking types of this flower is common or "Canada" goldenrod ( Solidago canadensis Goldenrod is an herbaceous perennial In its native region (see below), it requires little care. For aesthetic purposes, cut down the dead stalks in late fall and compost them. In addition to being the name of a wildflower, "goldenrod" is also the name of a color: defined as "a strong to vivid yellow." You need search no further for the defining characteristic of this plant, whose flower stalks bristle with numerous small flowers of a vivid yellow or gold. Although there are many types of goldenrod flowers, this perennial is, generally speaking, a tall, slim plant (4-5 feet for some types) topped off with fluffy, golden flower spikes. Thus the most likely derivation of the common name: golden (for the flower color) + rod (a reference to its spindly shape).

After researching the best way to start wildflower seeds, the group decided to use newspaper, mulch and pea gravel. Cedar Mill Garden Club also donated two wreaths to the Cedar Mill Library as we always do at Christmas time. Jackie McClung and Ruby Warren made the wreaths and other members donated the greens. The program presenter for the January 20th meeting of the Cedar Mill Garden Club is Jan Heathers of Highland Heather in Canby. She will present a slide show and bring heaths and heathers that are in bloom. The program will be held at the Beaverton Community Center 12350 S.W. 5th, beginning at 10 am for the business meeting and snacks; with the program commencing at 11:15 am.
