Ivydene Gardens Mixed Border Bedding Plants Gallery:
Site Map

The Bedding Plant Expert by Dr. D.G. Hessayon (ISBN 0-903505-34-7) describes cultural information for some of the following bedding plants with this use definition: a plant which is moved at the leafy stage to its place in the garden or in a container where it provides a display for a limited period.

These Bedding Plants were in the Mixed Borders in the garden at Wisley of the Royal Horticultural Society in 2013. They are detailed in the Mixed Border - Bedding Plant Index Page. This gallery started on 10 January 2014.

You can select one of the 74 Royal Horticultural Garden at Wisley MIXED BORDER BEDDING PLANTS by clicking on its:-

After reviewing the situation in the

I am tempted to state:-
'There is room for improvement in the Mixed Border'.

The Daily Telegraph Best Flowers to Grow and Cut by David Joyce (ISBN 0 7112 2366 1) groups plants according to defined characteristics of flower simple shape, elaborated shape, flower details and flower textures. Using that system, this plant gallery sends thumbnails to the Flower Shape Gallery which has thumbnail pictures in:-

Number of Flower Petals
Flower Simple Shape of a flower,
Flower Elaborated Shape of a flower,
Flower Elaborated Shape of a composite of flowers and
Flower Natural Arrangement Pages

A thumbnail of each of the plants can be in 4 of the above 5.
The text above links to those pages and the thumbnails in the menu link to the Plant Description Page of that flower.
Explaination of each page is at the bottom of that page in the Herbaceous Perennials Flower Shape Gallery.

Each plant description in this Gallery has links to that Flower Shape Gallery from the description of the flower in its Flower Colour Row of each plant in at least one of those pages

"University of Missouri plant science researchers have found a receptor in plants that could be a vital component in the way plants respond to danger, including pests, environmental changes and plant wounds. This discovery may lead to herbicides, fertilizers and insect repellants that naturally work with plants to make them stronger.

The researchers are focusing on the molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is the main energy source inside a cell and is considered to be the high energy molecule that drives all life processes in animals and humans. Outside the cell, membrane receptors that attract ATP drive muscle control, neurotransmission, inflammation and development.

“Plants don’t have ears to hear, fingers to feel or eyes to see,” said Gary Stacey, professor of plant sciences in the College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources. “Plants use these chemical signals to determine if they are being preyed upon or if an environmental change is occurring that could be detrimental to the plant. We have evidence that when ATP is outside of the cell it is probably a central signal that controls the plant’s ability to respond to a whole variety of stresses.”

Stacey and fellow researchers, graduate student Jeongmin Choi and postdoctoral fellow Kiwamu Tanaka, screened 50,000 plants over two years to identify the ATP receptors. By isolating a key gene in the remaining plants, scientists found the receptor that aids in plant development and helps repair a plant during major events.

“We believe that when a plant is wounded, ATP is released into the wound and triggers the gene expressions necessary for repair,” Stacey said. “We think ATP is central to this kind of wound response and probably plays a role in development and a whole host of other plant responses to environmental changes and pests. We believe that with further study, researchers may be able to identify ways to naturally work with a plant’s own processes to protect it from major environmental events, plant wounds and insects.”

Future research will focus on how this receptor works with ATP, its protein structure, how it reacts to pests and how it may signal growth. The study, “Extracellular ATP signaling in plants,” was published in Science, and includes research from Sang Yeol Lee with the Plant Molecular Biology & Biotechnology Research Center, Gyeongsang National University in Korea. The study was funded in part by grants from the U.S. Department of Energy – Basic Energy Sciences and the Republic of Korea." from Self-Repairing Plants? in CAFNR news of January 16 2014.

Maybe this will explain how my small hosta - growing in the shade and I have done nothing for it - has survived slugs and snails for more than 25 years. It now produces new shoots, flowers with no leaf damage before the end of the season when it allows the caterpillars to eat it up and then it retires underground for the winter.

If all else fails in how to use this educational website, it might be worth reading the instructions in the red text on the
Welcome Page and the entire following page:-

Heliotropium arborescens is synonymous with Heliotropium peruvianum, but whether cultivar 'Marine' is the same as 'Dwarf Marine' I would not know since their descriptions are different.

The Black Plant Label inserted after the White Plant Label appears to provide the name for a different plant from that named in the White Plant Label, so no Bedding Plant Description Page produced.
