    http://www.botany.org/bsa/psb/1998/rev20-98.html
    
    Extractions: The Well-Tended Perennial Garden: Planting and Pruning Techniques DiSabato-Aust, Tracy, 1998. ISBN 0-88192-414-8 (cloth US$29.95) 338 pp. Timber Press Inc., 133 SW Second Avenue, Suite 450, Portland, OR 97204-3527 - Go to a garden store in the spring and you're sure to overhear someone say, "I'm giving up on planting annuals every year; I'm going into perennial gardening." Surprise! Perennials also require work. There are many books on perennial gardening that cover garden design, soil preparation, and selection of materials but fall short on the matter of maintenance. Tracy DiSabato Aust in The Well-Tended Perennial Garden is one of the first perennial experts to focus a book on the hard work but in a way that gives the work a clear purpose, even an esthetic goal. Plant biologists who also enjoy perennial gardening as a hobby will be especially appreciative of the author's scientific approach to the subject. For many years Tracy DiSabato-Aust has been experimenting with various pruning, thinning, and division techniques to keep her perennial garden and those of her landscape clients in peak form. She not only uses pruning techniques to remove spent blooms or diseased plants but also to produce pleasing visual effects. For example, she explains how to cut plants back, even prior to anthesis, to extend their bloom period or to produce a layered effect in the garden, moving from low to medium to tall plants. Then there is the matter of cleaning up the perennial garden in autumn or spring. In the pages of this book you will learn the best time of year to cut back and/or divide most of the commonly grown perennials and some of the more unusual cultivars, too.

In O. onites, the spikes grow in a 'false corymb' (56), forming a convex or flat-topped open inflorescence (102). Corollas may be purple, pink or white depending on the species. In some species flowers are arranged in whorls. The calyx, or small vase-like receptacle that supports and protects the corolla and reproductive organs of the flower, can be bell-shaped or tubular (97) with one or two lips (56). The shape of the calyx is the principal plant character used to distinguish between Origanum species (97). Flower stems can be erect or trailing/cascading (104). Trailing types like the ornamental O. rotundifolium and the cultivar 'Kent Beauty,' a hybrid of O. rotundifolium and another Origanum species, have a graceful, drooping appearance. The leaves (15) and flowering parts of the plant.
