LOPHOPHORA Monday, September 12, 2005 The power of grafting - V My grafted Lophophora williamsii (SB 854; Starr Co, Tx) is on a roll – it is now flowering for the fourth time this year. Lophophora williamsii flower I self-pollinated the flower and collected some pollen for a Lophophora williamsii v. jourdaniana that will flower soon – allegedly this variety is self-incompatible i.e. it requires outcross pollination. I hope the pollen will stay viable in the refrigerator for a week or two. < previous posted by lophophora at 8:10 PM 0 comments Monday, August 29, 2005 The power of grafting - IV For the third time this year my grafted Lophophora williamsii (SB 854; Starr Co, Tx) is flowering – quite an accomplishment from a plant only 18 months from seed (sowed February 29, 2004). This flower was also self-pollinated. Flowering Lophophora williamsii The two spent flowers can be seen below the current one.

49. Mary Soderstrom: Botanical Gardens of the history and philosophy of botanical gardens with links to nine of the world's best Leiden, Jardin des Plantes, Kew, Singapore, Missouri, New York, Montreal, San Franscisco, UBC. Based on book by Mary Soderstrom....... http://www.geocities.com/marysoderstrom/botanicaleden.html

Mary Soderstrom Recreating Eden: A Natural History of Botanical Gardens V©hicule Press ISBN:1-55065-151-X $24.95 CDN/ $18.95 US To order books If you would like to invite Mary Soderstrom to speak to your group about the gardens she visited while researching this book, contact V©hicule Press at marketing@vehiculepress.com. Recreating Eden: A Natural History of Botanical Gardens is more than pictures of beautiful flowers and landscape arrangements; more than a guide to some of the loveliest sites in the world; more, even, than a short and lively history of the development of the idea of a botanical garden. It is the story of mankind's search for the right place, a search which has been going on since our ancestors wandered on the plains of East Africa. Because of this, the book will appeal to the amateur historian and philosopher as well as the garden-lover. Last revised June, 2004 To find out more about Mary Soderstrom Dr. Peter H. RavenDirector of the Missouri Botanical Gardens. "A splendid work that traces in detail in a way that is both historically and botanically interesting the diverse ways in which botanical gardens have developed at different periods of time and in different countries. Excellent research, and an outstanding writing style."
