Comment
As 2009 draws to a close, we look back over a year of
150th anniversary celebrations—from the floral clock to
founder’s day—and think Henry Shaw would have been
proud. This year’s Gardenland Express holiday flower
and train show is our last “hurrah” in celebration of the
Garden’s 150th anniversary, so I hope you won’t miss
it. Amid the spectacular poinsettias and holiday greenery
(mostly grown in the Garden’s greenhouses), the show
features miniatures of historic Garden buildings.
Speaking of historic buildings, the Garden’s geodesic dome
ereenhouse, the Climatron®, turns 50 in 2010. First opened
to the public October 1, 1960, the Climatron has been
called a “mid-century modernist gem” and is listed as one
of the most important architectural works in U.S. history.
Stop by the Gate Shop and purchase a copy of the new
book about the Climatron by noted modernist scholar
Eric Mumford, professor of architecture at Washington
University. We are delighted that Eric will sign books on
December 6 and then return on January 21 to speak about
the Climatron to our members.
In October, the Garden hosted an historic meeting of
scientists from former Soviet republics. Although many
of these countries do not have diplomatic relations, the
scientists met to work cooperatively to conserve plants in
the threatened Caucasus region, which spans six nations.
Everywhere around the world, in the 38 nations where
Garden scientists do research, politics play a role. Early this
year, the staff at one of our longest standing satellites—the
Madagascar program, established 1971—found themselves
in the middle of a coup. The subsequent lawlessness has led
to plant and animal poaching—and threats on our Malagasy
staff, who are trying to defend their nation’s flora.
Although humans depend on plants for every aspect of our
lives, we are causing a large proportion of them to vanish
before our very eyes. Population growth, combined with
our rising levels of consumption, our technologies, and the
associated global climate change is causing the extinction to
which we are witnesses. Our annual giving campaign—the
Garden’s Henry Shaw Fund—raises funds for our most
urgent operating needs. If you can, please make a donation
this year to help. Give online or call (314) 577-9500.
See you on the grounds!

I was just checking the Monarch
Watch website and checked the
list for butterflies tagged in 2008
that were recovered in Mexico
this year. One of the 6 monarchs
that was tagged by the SIFT
students on 9/26/08 was recovered
in El Rosario, Mexico on 3/2/09.

MBG Hosts Historic Meeting
In October, the Missouri Botanical Garden hosted
an international symposium on plant conservation
of the Caucasus. The Caucasus Mountains are
situated between the Black Sea (Europe) and
the Caspian Sea (Asia), and span six countries.
The vegetation there is remarkably diverse, but
with political tensions high, no country in the
region was able to initiate a collaborative work.
The Garden invited scientists from Armenia,
Azerbaijan, Georgia, Russia, Turkey, and the
USS. for the first time to discuss cooperation to
create a list of endangered plants. Without a list of
endangered plant species, there is no scientific basis
for conservation. “Plants know no borders,” says
Garden associate curator Dr. Tatyana Shulkina.

Pardon Our Progress!
The Garden’s east parking lot in front of the Ridgway Visitor Center will
be closed this winter for much needed repairs and improvement. The
west lot will remain open at this time. In the event that the west lot is
full, visitors should use the free parking at the Metro multi-modal lots at
the corner of Shaw and Vandeventer.
Improvements include several new sustainable features. A portion of the
lot will be paved with “pervious” concrete, which allows rainwater to
pass directly through to be reabsorbed by the ground. A rain garden will
also help keep run-off to a minimum. Lighting, irrigation, and plantings
will be improved as well. This project has been made possible by federal
transportation funds through MoDOT. Work is expected to be completed
by April 2010.

Kew International Medal
In October, the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew awarded
their first ever International Medal to Missouri Botanical
Garden president Dr. Peter H. Raven for “distinguished,
internationally-recognised work aligned with the mission of
the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.” The medal was presented
in conjunction with the symposium held at Kew in honor of
their 250th anniversary, the same year as Missouri Botanical
Garden’s 150th.

That Uppity Theatre Company
In October, That Uppity Theatre Company brought the
DisAbility Project to the Garden, performing for 300+
Garden staff. Founded in 1995 by artist Joan Lipkin
and occupational therapist Fran Cohen, the DisAbility
Project creates and performs original material to present
disability as “simply another form of diversity that deserves
understanding and thoughtful response.” The company is
composed of people both with and without disabilities as
a model of inclusion and has won numerous awards an
international recognition. “We were thrilled to perform at
the Garden, where there are so many positive experiences
for people with disabilities,” says Lipkin. She cited the
Zimmerman Sensory Garden for the sight-impaired and the
Ruwitch Garden for All in the Kemper Center for Home
Gardening, as well as a network of wheelchair-accessible
paths, as models of inclusion.
Grants and Awards
MBG Anniv ersary Medal
In 2009, a new medal in honor of the
150th anniversary of the Garden was
commissioned. Designed by Charles
Pe eayercteator of the Garden siloco,
the design celebrates the history of the
Garden through two of its truly iconic
buildings: the Linnean House and the
Climatron. To represent scientific
discovery, the medal also includes nine
plants that have featured prominently
in Garden history or research, including
sassafras, Engelmann spruce, saguaro,
water lilies, evening primrose, fringe
moss, milkweed, ragwort, and corn.
The medal was presented to trustees, the
members’ board, senior management,
and major patrons. The newly commissioned
MBG 150th medal.
EarthWays Energy Grant
In September, the Missouri Department of Natural Resources
awarded a contract for management of their energy efficiency
for municipalities program. The Garden’s EarthWays Center is
part of the winning team. Shaw Environmental & Infrastructure
Group (unaffiliated) is the project lead. The program, Energize
Missouri Communities, uses federal stimulus funds to coordinate
the outreach, application process, and management of projects
across Missouri that will generate green jobs and increase energy
efficiency in municipalities. EarthWays Center will assist with
the outreach and marketing efforts of this grant.
Threatened Species in Indochina
The Garden recently received a project grant from the Critical
Ecosystem Partnership Fund (CEPF) to assess the conservation
status of plant species in Indochina that are in danger of
extinction in the near future. Dr. Jack Regalado, our program
leader in Vietnam, will carry out the project in partnership with
the Species Program of the International Union for Conservation
of Nature (IUCN), Botanic Gardens Conservation International
(BGCI), and institutions in Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, an
Thailand. The project will assess some 450 plant species,
including the 248 species currently listed as being in danger of
extinction. The results will be useful for decision-makers and
conservation managers in protecting threatened species and
managing key natural areas.

damage from illegal logging.
he year 2009 has been an exceptionally challenging year for both the Malagasy people
and Madagascar’s rich and unique flora and fauna. In January, the simmering power
struggle between Madagascar’s elected President Marc Ravalomanana and parts of
the opposition led by the Mayor of Antananarivo, Andry Rajoelina, came to a boil. Street
protests were brutally repressed, parts of the military mutinied, and the President was forced
into exile to be replaced by a weak transitional government (led by Rajoelina) that was
considered illegitimate by most of the international community.
The impact of this political instability on the Malagasy people and their environment is
extremely serious. Poverty has increased as businesses, unable to function normally, have shed
staff and as foreign aid agencies have withdrawn their support. In urban centers, looting and
burglary have become more frequent. In Madagascar’s remaining forests, particularly those in
the northeast, the anarchic exploitation of timber and precious woods has surged.
yyy Madagascar has 47 species of rosewood and over 100 ebony
species that occur nowhere else. Many are now at the brink of
extinction. Roving and violent lumbermen hunt endangered
lemurs for food while they illegally harvest these woods. Forests
themselves are being degraded as trees are felled, processed,
and dragged to adjacent rivers or roads for transport to the
_ ; coast. No forest that contains precious woods is safe, and the
Lemurs are also threatened by poachers.

SAGE
AT A YOUNG AGE
TEENS HELP CULTIVATE
AWARENESS AT THE GARDEN
by Jennifer Wolff, Manager of Interpretation
SAGE volunteers engaged visitors in the
Doris I. Schnuck Children’s Garden through
engaging nature-themed educational activities.
“OUR DAUGHTER HAD S50 MUCH FUN
WITH SAMANTHA, LEARNING ABOUT
TREES. SHE EVEN PLAYED DRESS-UP
WITH THE TREE COSTUME!”
Calling all teens! Don a headlamp and venture into a Missouri
cave. Hunt for fossils and insects. Learn about natural water
filters, pollination, and the native Osage people. SAGE
volunteers in the Doris I. Schnuck Children’s Garden lead all
these activities and more each summer.
SAGE stands for Students as Garden Educators. It is a service and
learning program for high school students, ages 14 to 18. SAGE
volunteers work with Garden staff to plant seeds of knowledge
and inspire our youngest visitors to enjoy nature. Participants
learn good science, improve public speaking skills, and have fun
working outdoors in the beautiful Garden with other high school
students from throughout the region.
SAGE volunteers help children learn about trees, but in an
active way, donning tree costumes and using puppet games. Kids
have “bushels of fun” learning about plants as food, past and
present, in the General Store as SAGE volunteers make dough or
preserves and play “Can You Guess this Scent?” with herbs and
spices. SAGE volunteers help children grow a new appreciation
for flowers through dress-up as pollinators and enjoying a
pollination “picnic.” In the Osage camp, SAGE volunteers teach
about the many ways this Native American tribe used plants with
weaving activities and native games. These are just a few of the
many engaging activities that the SAGE volunteers help offer
each season in the Children’s Garden.
FROM THE VOLUNTEERS:
“The best thing about the SAGE program is that I learned
about the environment. I knew a lot about the environment,
but now I know even more.”
“T liked working with the children and helping them through
the activities. A lot of them seemed really interested and I was
glad that I got to share that knowledge with them.”
SAGE grew substantially this past year and included students from:
Christian Brothers College, Clayton, Eureka, Fox, Hixson Middle
School, John Burroughs, Ladue Horton Watkins, Lafayette Senior,
Maplewood Richmond Heights, Mascoutah, McKinley, Mehlville,
Metro, Oakville, Rockwood South, Rockwood Summit, Rosati-Kain,
Roxana, SIU East St. Louis Charter School, St. Louis University,
Villa Duchesne, and Webster Groves High Schools.
- ~s.
CALLING ALL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS
Do you love plants and nature? Are you looking for a fun way
to spend your summer outdoors? Do you need to complete
service hours or gain positive experiences to put on your
college application? The SAGE program begins accepting
applications for summer 2010 in December. Visit the Garden’s
website www.mobot.org and go to “Education” and “For
teachers and students.”

clay pots with a steel wool
pad after they have soaked
overnight in a solution
consisting of 1 gallon of
water and one cup each of
white vinegar and bleach.
weeks 1-2
LI Quarantine new plants to
be sure they do not harbor
any insect pests.
If you didn’t get your
bulbs planted before the
ground froze, plant them
immediately in individual
pots and place the pots
in flats. Set them outside
where it is cold and bury
under thick blankets of
leaves. Transplant them into
the garden when weather
permits.
week 3
LI Set Amaryllis plants in
a bright sunny window
to allow the leaves to
develop fully. Remove
spent flowers. Keep the
soil moist, not soggy.
Fertilize occasionally with a
general purpose houseplant
formulation.
week 4
LI Try sprouting a test sample
of leftover seeds before
ordering new seeds for
spring. (Roll up 10 seeds in
a damp paper towel. Keep
moist and warm. Chec
for germination in a week.
If fewer than half sprout,
order fresh seed.)

UO) Don’t work garden soils
if they are wet. Squeeze a
handful of soil to form a
ball. If it is sticky, allow the
soil to dry further.
L) Start onion seed indoors now.
L) Inspect fruit trees for tent
caterpillar egg masses. Eggs
appear as dark brown or
erey collars that encircle
small twigs. Destroy by
pruning or scratching off
with your thumbnail.
L) Water evergreens if the soil
is dry and unfrozen.
) Take geranium cuttings now.
UU) To avoid injury to lawns,
keep foot traffic to a
minimum when soils are
wet or frozen.
L) Repot any rootbound
houseplants before vigorous
erowth occurs. Choose a
new container that is only
1—2 inches larger in diameter.
week 1
UL) Branches of pussy willow,
quince, crabapple, forsythia,
pear, and flowering cherry
may be forced indoors.
Place cut stems in a vase of
water and change the water
every four days.
week 2
L) Start seeds of slow-growing
annuals like verbena, salvia
petunias, geraniums, coleus,
and impatiens indoors.
L) Maple sugaring time is here!
Freezing nights and mild
days make the sap flow.
Q) Fertilize houseplants only if
they show signs of new growth.
week 3
UL) Sow celery and celeriac
seeds indoors now.
L) Prune fruit trees. Peaches
and nectarines should be
pruned just before they
bloom. When pruning
diseased branches, sterilize
tools with a germicide spray
between cuts. Dry your
tools and rub lightly with
oil to prevent rusting.
L) Sow seeds of larkspur,
sweet peas, shirley poppies,
and snapdragons outdoors.
For best bloom, these plants
must sprout and begin
growth well before warm
weather arrives.
UL) Apply appropriate sprays for
the control of lawn weeds.
week 4
LI Sow seeds of broccoli,
brussels sprouts, cauliflower,
and cabbage indoors for
transplanting into the
garden this spring. If soil
conditions allow, t
a chance sowing peas,
lettuce, spinach, and radish.
OU
Fertilize established fruit
trees once frost leaves the
ground. Use about % lb. of
12-12-12 per tree, per year
of age, up to a maximum of
10 Ibs. per tree. Broadcast
fertilizers over the root zone
staying at least a foot from
the tree trunk.
L) Dormant sprays can be
applied to ornamental trees
and shrubs on a mild day
while temperatures are
above freezing.
Q) Start tuberous begonias
indoors now. “Nonstop”
varieties perform well in
this climate.
Featured Plant of Merit
Eastern White Pine
Pinus strobus ‘Sea Urchin’
Over the first ten years, this slow-growing miniature
white pine forms a flattened globe of blue-green
needles to only 2-3 feet tall, somewhat resembling in
appearance the spiny hedgehog shape of a sea urchin.
It is a colorful and interesting addition to small areas of
the landscape including rock gardens, Japanese gardens,
border fronts, and foundations.

Bet you never thought you’d see one of these bad boys
in your backyard in Kirkwood! Once an icon of Texas,
armadillos are spreading throughout the St. Louis region.
Their habits are shy and their numbers still small, but
sightings are increasing. Like other potential pests we are
starting to see in the St. Louis area, milder winters due to
global climate change have resulted in a larger range.
“Something’s going on. These animals weren’t here even
five years ago,” says Missour1 Department of Conservation
natural history biologist Michael Arduser. “While they’re
not very abundant here yet, down the road, they may very
well be more prevalent.”
Armadillos have a habit of leaping straight up in the air
when startled, a trait that has resulted in their most frequent
appearance as road kill along area roadways. Consequently,
biologists have a very good idea of exactly where they are.
Arduser reports that road kills are relatively common in
St. Louis County—in South County and Kirkwood, for
example. He adds that armadillos have even crossed the
Missouri River into Lincoln and Warren counties.
“Little armored ones” (what their name means in Spanish)
tend to be nocturnal and oblivious, intent on hunting

and foraging, but people should not interact with them.
Although they aren’t predators, they are compact and
powerful animals. In most instances, humans can often hear
them long before they appear—trustling, turning leaves.
Armadillos are mostly insectivores, so they dig to eat.
Grubs are one of their favorite foods. As the temperatures
get colder and the insects migrate deeper into the soil, the
armadillos dig bigger and deeper holes. “They have really
serious claws,” says Arduser. “In an hour’s time, a single
armadillo can really tear up a yard.”
They can be trapped, but not using a standard bait trap.
(No bait seems to work.) Instead, they must be funneled
into a trap using drift fences. To learn more about
armadillos—and how to manage them if you detect one—
check out these two excellent free on-line publications.

non-profit Database of State Incentives

Super-efficiency plus solar panels achieve “near-zero energy” status for this suburban St. Louis home.
Especially after power outages, people call the Garden’s EarthWays Center Green Resources Hotline
seeking to install solar panels, get off the grid, and be able to keep their households powered up, no matter
what. It’s a valid ambition, but perhaps an impractical path to transforming the ways we use energy.
Did you know: every dollar invested in energy
efficiency can take $5 off the eventual cost of
installing a renewable energy system?
In other words, a kilowatt saved is a kilowatt earned (or in
fact, five). Diligent attention to lighting, weatherizing, and
other basic efficiency measures are the essential first step to
getting “off grid”—and will reduce monthly energy bills
right away. Once you’ve maximized efficiency, here are
some options to consider.
Solar electric (photovoltaic, or PV) systems are the focus
of strong public interest, and tax credits can help
you cover their costs (see sidebar). Other solar options
are also well worth considering: solar thermal panels can
provide hot water and supply under-floor heating systems.
Health-enhancing daylight, beaming through well-sealed
efficient windows or “solar tube” skylights, may be the
least appreciated but best way to use solar energy—and
daylight is free!
Winter 2010
Wind power is a fast-growing renewable energy source.
Consumers can purchase Renewable Energy Credits (RECs)
through non-profit organizations and utility programs.
These voluntary household and business investments, which
typically add about 15 percent to monthly electric bills,
support the development of wind production infrastructure.
Over $87 million federal dollars were designated for Missouri
wind projects in 2009. Watch for small-scale wind turbines,
designed for use at low roof-level wind speeds, on the
consumer market soon.
Ground-source, or geothermal, heating and cooling
systems provide clean renewable energy that is increasingly
cost-competitive with conventional equipment. It’s worth
calculating this option into new home or commercial
building plans, especially with current federal tax credits.
So improve your existing energy systems—and plan any
new ones—to eliminate energy waste, make use of locally
appropriate energy sources, and integrate renewables into
your energy mix in every way you can.

The majority of the world’s human population eats insects!
How’s that for an opening line? “Entomophagy” is the term
Q for the practice of eating insects, and there are over a thousand
/ QO species of insects commonly consumed by humans around the
world. While many Americans may be a bit squeamish at the
thought of eating an insect, or even finding one in their food,
consuming a few is not really that unusual considering their
abundance and the necessity of food for survival.
| 8 W 8 ‘ There are dozens of different insect foods at market stalls in
Or ) ni nt | Thailand. There is a festival celebrated in central Mexican
Nal (6 hd § f ™ towns called Jumil Day, where people gather, collect and
cook jumiles, a type of stinkbug. The mopane worm, a
by Mark Deering, Collections Manager
caterpillar of a large Saturniid moth, which is collected
by hand and then dried, can make up the majority of the
protein in some African tribes’ diets.
Insects by weight are relatively high in protein, even
more so when dried. Some are fairly high in fat and most
possess large amounts of vitamins and minerals. So why
aren't we eating them? The hesitation is driven primarily
by cultural differences. There are some foods consumed by
Americans—such as crawfish, raw oysters, crabs, lobster,
shrimp, squid, octopus and other invertebrates—that other
cultures find disgusting and reject as food. Cheese, for
example, is considered spoiled milk by many Asian cultures.
Of course we are eating insects, incidentally. Food products
often contain insects or pieces of insects. The Food and
Drug Administration provides a guideline as to how many
insect parts may be allowed in natural and processed foods.
This is primarily an “aesthetic” restriction in most cases,
as insect parts do not harm the average consumer (the

By Cindy Gilberg, Native Plant Horticulturist
On a gently sloping hill at Shaw Nature Reserve is a gem of a garden dedicated
to education and use of native plants in the landscape. The five-acre Whitmire
Wildflower Garden has an extensive collection of native small flowering trees and
shrubs and grand specimens of oak, hickory, and persimmon. Many visitors come
in spring to see wildflowers in bloom or to walk in the cool shade in summer.
Yet winter is a ttme when one can truly get the “lay of the land.” Interesting tree
branches appear, views open up, and visitors may see the landscape in an entirely
new way.
As autumn gives way to winter in the garden, the colors of summer turn to rich
earth tones. Chocolate-brown seed heads and ebony stems and seed pods (bush
clover and false indigo) rustle in the wind against a backdrop of tawny grasses.
Colonies of ferns are marked by ruddy and dark brown fertile fronds that persist
through the cold months.
What seems to be a quiet scene can, in fact, offer more opportunity to see wildlife.
Mixed flocks of sparrows and juncos enjoy foraging on any remaining grass seed —
sparrows on standing seed heads while juncos eat the seed that falls to the ground
below. Bright spots of red berries on dogwood, prairie rose, and deciduous holly
vie for the attention of overwintering bluebirds, sparrows, and finches. Watch for
mockingbirds as they defiantly defend their claim on holly berries.
A winter hike when there 1s snow on the ground reveals all sorts of activity that
usually goes unnoticed. Here and there are trails of footprints, from tiny mice to
fox and rabbit tracks. Occasionally seen are the wing imprints in the snow made
by hawks and owls as they swoop down to capture small rodents. Take time while
hiking in the crisp clear winter air to stop and listen. The woods and fields are filled
with sounds—the tapping of woodpeckers, a gentle symphony of waxwings calling,
and even the subtle rustling of the wind in dried foliage.
A winter ice storm coats switchgrass and Illinois
bundleflower in the Whitmire Wildflower Garden.

President’s
Comment
Spring arrives many times at the Garden. Spring creeps
into the Climatron® in January, when the powderpuff
and glorybower bloom. In February, spring takes over the
Temperate House, a Mediterranean primavera complete
with fragrant daphnes and sweet box. But outside, in our
climate zone 6a, St. Louis welcomes spring in March. When
the snowdrops shed white tears over Shaw’s grave, the show 1s
about to begin.
This year, visitors can appreciate over 100 varieties of tulips,
72 types of daffodils, dozens of peonies (see page 18), among
other spring beauties like crocus, hyacinth, and a reprise of
last year’s popular entrance display: over 1,000 alliums, their
tall stalks topped by 6-inch globes of purple flowers.
We welcome Arnold Donald as the new Chairman of the
Board of Trustees, and new Vice-Chairs Steve Maritz and
Cheryl Morley. Armold, Steve, and Cheryl succeed outgoing
Chair Nick Reding and Vice-Chair Carolyn Losos. Thank
you, Nick and Carolyn, for your service. We welcome new
trustee Dan Burkhardt as well.
With the turning of the season, we mourn the passing of
three pillars of St. Louis philanthropy: Lu Morse, Des Lee,
and our longest serving trustee, Warren Shapleigh. All three
served on the Garden’s Board, and their dedication will be
greatly missed.
In May, we present DinoQuest at the Garden and the
companion exhibit, Jurassic Bugs, at the Sophia M. Sachs
Butterfly House. These exhibitions provide a perfect
introduction to the history of life on Earth, extinction, and
survival. At the Garden, there is also the excitement of
experiencing these lifelike creatures in such an awe-inspiring
natural setting, the Climatron (see page 9).
Angiosperms are flowering plants, the most diverse plant
group on the planet, with an estimated 350,000 species
living in all but the most extreme environments. Garden
scientists are at the forefront of discovering, identifying, and
classifying the world’s plant life (see page 14), and our work
is the foundation for conservation. How we humans manage
our resources will have a major effect on the future of life,
and there are many lessons to be learned from the past.
See you on the grounds!

President’s
Comment
photo by Kristi Foster
When physician and dedicated botanist George Engelmann
began collecting and describing plant specimens from the
American West, everything he encountered was a native
plant. He was a trusted advisor to Henry Shaw in the
planning of the Missouri Botanical Garden as an institution
of scientific research and beautiful horticultural display. The
specimens he added to the Garden’s herbarium during his
lifetime represent some of the earliest records of the flora of
a region before it was altered by the hand of progress.
By studying the plants of the past, we can learn valuable
lessons about the future. That’s one of the goals of Digitizing
Engelmann’s Legacy, an initiative of the Garden’s Center for
Biodiversity Informatics to make 8,000 specimens and records
from the Engelmann Herbarium available in electronic form
online (see page 12).
By their very nature, native plants are some of the easiest
to cultivate in your own garden. In this issue you can learn
about the Shaw Nature Reserve’s efforts to collect and
promote these plants (see page 14), and find out which ones
will work well in your home garden (see _page 16).
Learning from the past 1s also part of the purpose
behind DinoQuest: A Tropical Trek Through Time, now
on display in the Climatron®. Studying how dinosaurs
interacted with and were influenced by the prehistoric
ecosystems in which they lived can teach us lessons
about our own future. The most basic lesson is this:
Life on Earth depends on plants for survival. As we
observe the International Year of Biodiversity in 2010,
it’s important to realize our actions today can have
lasting implications for future generations, and we must
take steps now to preserve our planet’s biodiversity.
Starting in September, Dr. Peter Wyse Jackson will
spearhead these and other initiatives as the new president of
the Garden. The selection process for my successor was an
intensive, two-year search, and as I prepare to move into an
advisory role as president emeritus, I am confident he will
provide the skilled leadership necessary to see Henry Shaw’s
legacy well into the next decade.

New genus named after Garden scientist
A new genus of Sapindaceae (the economically important
soapberry family) endemic to Madagascar has been named
after Missour1 Botanical Garden scientist Roy Gereau.
An article describing the genus, Gereaua, appeared in the
latest issue of Systematic Botany, the scientific journal of the
American Society of Plant Taxonomists.
Gereau 1s assistant curator in the Africa and Madagascar
department at the Garden and director of the Tanzania
Botanical Research and Conservation Program.
“Having my family name commemorated in a new genus
is a significant honor of which I’m very proud,” said
Gereau. “At this point in the history of plant taxonomy,
we are still discovering many new species, but we have few
Opportunities to name new genera.”

Dr. Peter Wyse Jackson will succeed
Dr. Peter Raven as president of the
Missouri Botanical Garden on Sept. 1.
Peter Wyse Jackson
Born in: Kilkenny, Ireland, June 7,
1955; second of five siblings
Married; with three children
Education: Ph.D., University of
Dublin, 1984, on research in plant
taxonomy (see sidebar)
Currently: Director of the National
Botanic Gardens of Ireland;
Chairman, Global Partnership for
Plant Conservation
Previously: Secretary General,
Botanic Gardens Conservation
International
A Conversation with
Peter Wyse Jackson
eter Wyse Jackson jokes that his Ph.D. on Cochlearia gave him excellent
preparation for a career in management. The director of the National
Botanic Gardens of Ireland and former Secretary General of Botanic
Gardens Conservation International, Dr. Wyse Jackson will succeed Dr. Peter H.
Raven as president of the Missouri Botanical Garden on Sept. 1. During a recent
visit to St. Louis, he sat down to discuss his background, what he’ll miss about
Dublin, and what he’s looking forward to accomplishing as head of the Garden.
How did you first become interested in plants?
I was probably 13 or 14 when I got into plants. I started out really as a bit of a
bird watcher, but the birds were really irritating because they always flew away
before I could get to them, whereas the plants stayed put. I was just driven
by curiosity because I couldn’t identify them. Coming from a family that had
very diverse interests, we all tried to develop a line that was rather unique to
ourselves, and botany was not something that anyone had ever been interested in.
I suppose botany was something a little different, and I like being different.
6 Missouri Botanical Garden Bulletin Summer 2010
Given the effects of global climate change being felt
already, and with so many plants at risk, how do you
decide which ones to save?
The problem is we don’t yet know which ones are going to be impacted
by climate change, and I think that needs to become a key element of
research. I did a preliminary assessment of the potential impact of predicted
climate changes on the Irish flora and found that if the predictions are
correct, Ireland will lose 25 percent of its flora by 2050.
But we don’t yet have the experimental data to back that up properly.
We also don’t know what are going to be the drivers of loss, whether
it’s going to be changes in temperature, whether it’s going to be changes
in precipitation, changes in competition, changes in soils, changes in
associations with soil microflora and fauna. We need to have fundamental
answers to many of these questions before we can know exactly what’s
going to happen. Unfortunately, we don’t have time to do all of this
work, and we’re going to have to come up with strategies to speed up the
knowledge base for impacts of climate change on plants and ecosystems.
2010 is the International Year of Biodiversity. How would
you like the Missouri Botanical Garden to convey that as a
message to the public under your leadership?
The message is we need to celebrate biodiversity, but equally, we need to
celebrate it with the knowledge that this is a time for action. There’s not
time for any complacency. The threats to biodiversity are rising, and are
getting faster and faster as more and more habitats are being lost, and more
and more pressures on biodiversity are being identified but not addressed.
Biodiversity conservation is not just for conservationists. We need public
engagement in the issues. We need, for example, biodiversity to be
incorporated into climate change strategies. It’s not at the moment. We
need everyone engaged in conserving and appreciating biodiversity.
What will you miss most about Dublin?
Family, because my mother and mother-in-law are both elderly and living
in Dublin, but we will be regular visitors there. We still have our cottage
in the west of Ireland, in County Kerry on the Dingle Peninsula. One of
my other great interests is antiques, and I will miss browsing around the
Dublin antiques shops.
One of the things I’m really looking forward to is the fact that the Garden
is such an important botanical center, so it’s going to be possible to
enhance my global biodiversity policy interests here. Being chairman of the
Global Partnership for Plant Conservation, there’s a lot more that I'll be
able to achieve here than I could in Dublin.
The subject of Dr. Peter Wyse
Jackson’s Ph.D. thesis, Cochlearia 1s
commonly called scurvy grass and
is a genus of about 30 species in the
Brassicaceae family (which includes
cabbages and broccoli). Commonly
found in coastal regions, high cliffs,
and salt marshes, its leaves are rich
in vitamin C and in the past were
eaten by sailors suffering from
scurvy after long voyages. The
leaves have a strong, peppery taste.

DIGITIZING
ENGELMANN’S
LEGACY
12
hen Dr. George Engelmann moved
from Germany to the frontier town of
St. Louis in the 1830s, the physician
brought with him a lifelong love of botany.
Settled on the edge of a largely unexplored
wilderness, Engelmann spent a great deal of his
life, particularly his later years, studying and
describing the flora of western North America.
In 1856, Henry Shaw sought out Dr. George Engelmann,
a respected botanist and founder of the St. Louis Academy
of Sciences, for advice and assistance on planning his
botanical garden in St. Louis, particularly the scientific
components.
After his death in 1884, Engelmann’s botanical collection
of about 100,000 specimens was given to the Missouri
Botanical Garden. Now, thanks to a $146,600 grant from
the federal Institute of Museum and Library Services
(IMLS), the Garden will digitize and create an online
public display of some of the plant specimens from the
Engelmann Herbarium.
The approximately 8,000 specimens to be digitized were
gathered during pioneering expeditions into the American
West following those of Lewis and Clark. They are among
the first scientific records of the plants growing in the vast
wilderness west of the Mississippi River. The collection
forms some of the earliest verifiable documentation of
species occurrences in that pristine region, before the rapid
migration west permanently altered the landscape through
human introduction of non-native invasive species. These
specimens will provide a historic complement to the
3.7 million specimens already accessible through Tropicos
at Www.tropicos.org.
“These specimens are incredibly important because they
are among the first scientific documentation of plant
species in the American West and Mexico,” said Chris
Freeland, director of the Garden’s Center for Biodiversity
Informatics. “These specimens provide a baseline
understanding of the species diversity within the United
States and can be used to guide conservation practices
and land use management policies today. And, through
generous funding from the IMLS, we’re now able to
prioritize their digitization and free online publication for a
global audience of scholars, students, and citizen scientists.”
In many cases these specimens document the first collection
of species new to science and illustrate their historical
distribution in what is now the United States and Mexico.
The specimens have been part of the Garden’s herbarium
since Engelmann’s death but are only now being
digitized. Since the early 1980s, as new specimens have
been collected—primarily from the tropics and other
biodiversity hot spots like southeast Madagascar and
southeast Asia—they have been immediately added to
Tropicos. These undigitized “legacy” specimens represent
collections made before the Garden’s streamlined data
entry process. The time required to locate them among the
Garden’s collection of more than six million objects has
made the cost of finding and digitizing them prohibitively
Missouri Botanical Garden Bulletin Summer 2010
expensive. The funds from IMLS
have helped to offset this endeavor.
Freeland says that once the
specimens are digitized, it
will be interesting to see what
conclusions can be drawn by
comparing historic distributions
to contemporary ones, as well
as other applications that may
currently be unforeseen. “While
we may not have all the answers,
by making them available we
can engage other scientists and
historians who can include
them in their own research
and expand upon this ‘grunt
work’ that we’ve completed
through IMLS funding.”
Digitization of the collection
is under way and should be
completed by October 2010.

Coral bells (Heuchera sanguinea) are
a popular ground cover in St. Louis
gardens. These crimson flowers,
native to the western United States
and Mexico, were first collected and
described by F.A. Wislizenus, an
amateur botanist who also happened
to be George Engelmann’s colleague
in his medical practice. On a
collecting expedition to Mexico in
1846, Wislizenus reported seeing this
plant growing in “mountains, rocks, at
Llanos near Cosiquiriachi” and sent it
back to Engelmann in Missouri, who
used the specimen in 1848 to describe
the plant. The Engelmann Herbarium
specimen represents the first scholarly
identification of this species.

emote sink-holes, craggy bluffs, and soggy river bottoms may seem
like unlikely places to find new plants for landscaping, but such places
tend to put plants to the ultimate test. Scouring floods, summer drought,
and erratic temperatures often generate tough plants that work well in the
modern landscape.
Take, for instance, the Ozark alumroot (Heuchera villosa var. Ozarkana). In
2009, Shaw Nature Reserve horticulture staff collected seeds of this species
from wild populations in the southern Ozarks. Found on shaded blufts
growing out of rocky crevices, one can assume a high level of drought
and shade tolerance. Since other Missouri species of alumroot are long-
lived, compact, and low-maintenance garden plants, there is a good chance
that this species is as well. If the Ozark alumroot proves to be as garden-
worthy as its close cousins prairie alumroot, American alumroot, and little-
flower alumroot, then it will be given a prominent place in the Whitmire
Wildflower Garden, and efforts will be made to produce and promote it for
public use.
Reserve horticulture staff have been searching for species new to horticulture
for decades, mostly in eastern Missouri but more recently in the bootheel,
southern Ozarks, and western Missouri. Last year’s trip set its sights on
southwest Missouri and northwest Arkansas. With Theo Witsell (botanist
for the Arkansas Natural Heritage Commission) as our guide, collection
began at the Kings River Falls Natural Area near the 1921 Dripping
Springs schoolhouse. A few of the species collected were Arkansas alumroot
(Heuchera villosa var. arkansana), two viburnums (V. rafinesquianum and V.
recognitum), Arkansas bedstraw (Galium arkansanum), marginal shield fern
(Dryopteris marginalis), and umbrella magnolia (Magnolia tripetala). This is the
most northerly population of umbrella magnolia in our region, and it may
prove to be a hardy ecotype for St. Louis gardens.

Staff hiked to a wetland fen and collected several species of sedges (Carex spp.),
rushes (Juncus spp.), and bushy aster (Aster dumosum), some of which may prove

Arkansas/Missouri border, collections included heart-leaved Alexander (Zizia
aptera), western rough goldenrod (Solidago radula), and whorled mountain mint
(Pycnanthemum verticillatum var. pilosum). Other mountain mint species attract
many species of butterflies, bees, and solitary wasps and are noteworthy garden
plants. The 2009 trip ended at Hercules Glade, high in the Missouri Ozarks,
where the horticulture staff collected fringe tree (Chionanthus virginicus) and
Missouri maiden-bush (Andrachne phyllanthoides). Missouri maiden-bush is a
three-foot-tall shrub with tiny leaves that resembles spirea. Plants like this may

Authors’ note: Though some of the species mentioned are available in nurseries, few are of a
known local origin. The best way to ensure that garden plants will thrive is to use plants of
local origin (also called local ecotype). This is another important reason why seeds are collected
from wild populations. It is also important to keep in mind that only small quantities of seed
are collected from wild populations. Once sizeable populations are established in the Whitmire
Wildflower Garden, plants are then produced in large quantities for public distribution.

Hunting for endangered native plants
During the past year, Matthew Albrecht has made several trips to collect seeds of
endangered and endemic plants in the midwestern United States. Last April, he traveled
to Arkansas, where he collected seeds of Claytonia ozarkensis, a newly described species
that is known only from Arkansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma and 1s in the Center for
Plant Conservation’s National Collection of Endangered Species. Last June, Matthew
and his assistant, Juan Carlos Penagos, gathered seeds of several glade endemics in
southwestern Missouri, including the federally endangered Geocarpon minimum. In June
2009 as well, under a grant from the Center for Plant Conservation and the National
Park Service, Matthew and his team collected seeds in Tennessee from two federally
threatened and endangered species, Astragalus bibullatus and Conradina verticillata.

ep // implies activity and interaction on the
Z o ‘E4e part of a gardener. The real question
for those wanting a low-maintenance
garden is how much activity is the gardener willing to do?
Gardeners have to balance their love of gardening with
the amount of time they have to garden. Part of the low-
maintenance question can be answered by keeping the size of
a garden in proportion to the amount of time a gardener can
spend maintaining it. The other part involves choosing plants
that require less weeding, mulching, watering, and trimming.
Here are some time comparisons for you to consider when
selecting a garden size. It takes about 10 to 15 hours annually to
take care of a low-maintenance groundcover planting (based on
500 square feet). In comparison, it takes about 25 to 30 hours
annually to maintain a standard mulched planting bed and about
two to three hours for a mowed lawn. Again, this is based on
500 square feet. This does not include planning, installation, or
maintenance time during the first year. It does include mulching,
watering, weeding, and cleanup once the planting becomes
established. If you want less maintenance, native groundcover
plantings may work for you.

richardsonii), for example, has a height
of 10 inches with flowering stalks that grow up to two feet.
They have been thriving in various areas, in both sun and part
shade, in the Whitmire Wildflower Garden for nearly 20 years.
When mass-planted on 10- to 12-inch centers, they grow
into solid mats and have emerald leaves that remain green
into winter. In addition, it is clump-forming and so is an ideal
eroundcover for small areas.
Some groundcovers form clumps, and others spread with
rhizomes (underground shoots). Small planting areas are best
planted with clump-forming species because they spread very
slowly. When planting larger areas (750 square feet or greater),
rhizomatous plants fill in more quickly, tolerate wider spacing,
and involve fewer plants. This group includes palm sedge
(Carex muskingumensis), southern blue flag iris (Iris virginica),
round-leaved groundsel (Senecio obovatus), and aromatic aster
(Aster oblongifolius), all of which perform well and are showy.
Plants like these form a dense mat that excludes weeds and
when mature require little or no mulch. For the best visual
effect, plant each species in large masses of 25 or more.
Keep in mind that you will need to choose plants that are
adapted to your particular site condition—wet, dry, sunny,
shady, etc. For example, dwarf-crested iris (Iris cristata) belongs
in the shade, while copper iris needs full sun. American
feverfew (Parthenium hispidum) can tolerate summer drought
while shining bluestar (Amsonia illustris) can tolerate both
spring flooding and summer drought. A number of plants even
tolerate a wide array of sunlight and soil conditions like palm
sedge (Carex muskingumensis) and oak sedge (Carex albicans).
Once planted in the right place, native plants thrive with
modest care. Another factor that favors the use of native plants
is their low incidence of insect and disease problems. This
translates into less need for irrigation, fertilizer, and pesticides.
When chosen correctly, native plants in the landscape can
greatly enhance savings in time and money.
There is a new native groundcover garden at the Shaw Nature Reserve

Lake Management in
the Japanese Garden. =
isitors to the Japanese Garden in the summer of 2006
might have wondered if they were viewing a biolo
experiment in action. The garden’s 9 million-gallon
central lake was covered with a lime-green film, and a
sulfuric smell hanging over the water made some visitors
report a possible gas leak.
The culpnit: algae.
Over the past 25 years, Japanese Garden horticulture staff
have sought more sustainable approaches to managing
the lake’s water quality. Treating the lake with algicides,
chemicals that kill algae blooms, only adds to the problem:
Dead algae falls to the bottom of the lake and decomposes
into sludge, which feeds the growth of more algae.
Bioaugmentation: Algae thrives on nitrogen. The numerous
koi eat as much as 400 pounds of food monthly in the
summer, generating nitrogen-rich waste that feeds algae.
Bioaugmentation is the process of adding “healthy” bacteria
to the lake that consume excess nitrogen and control the
conditions that lead to algae growth. Garden staff do this
three times a week from May through September.
Japanese Garden horticulture staff make a big difference
by skimming leaves from the surface of the lake before
they have a chance to sink and decompose on the bottom,
where they become another food source for algae.
Bioaugmentation has been used in the lake for the past
two decades, but with varying degrees of success. This is
why Japanese Garden horticulture staff began looking for
additional tools to help control the problem.
Shake it: You can’t feel it—neither can the fish—but four
LG sonic units transmit complex ultrasonic vibrations that
disrupt algae cells without harming people, animals, fish,
and other aquatic plants. The compromised algae cells fall
to the bottom of the lake and die.
Move it: Because there is no shade on the lake, surface
water temperatures can get as high as 92 or 93 degrees
Fahrenheit on a hot day—which also encourages algae
erowth. If you’ve seen water bubbles coming to the surface
and wondered if there was an underground spring in
the lake, you’ve seen the six air stones operating to help
keep the water oxygenated and in motion by circulating
colder water from the bottom of the lake to the surface.
Waterfalls, in addition to being aesthetically pleasing, also
help this process. Maintenance staff have also drastically cut
Garden staff, including horticulturists and maintenance, use
numerous sustainable techniques to keep the lake free of algae.

the amount of time it takes to service and repair the motors
on these units—from two to three weeks to two to three
days, so that coverage is virtually continuous.
Barley straw is also added near the waterfalls. As it
decomposes, it produces compounds that inhibit algae
growth. This is only done on a small scale, typically once
a year, but even small efforts like this help overall.
The hardy water lilies and other plants to the west of the
path are another algae suppression tool. Water plants take
nutrients from the lake that might otherwise promote
algae growth. However, the fish that delight visitors by
the koi feeding bridge also love to eat plants, so Garden
staff had to find a way to keep water plants isolated from
the fish. A gate near the granite bridge adjusts to changing
lake levels and keeps the ko1 away from the plants.
Remove it: In spite of the best efforts, algae blooms can
still occur. One of the best ways to address them, instead
of adding chemicals, is to physically remove them.
This is done using a boom created by Japanese Garden
horticulture staff using lengths of water pipe insulation
strung together and floated on the surface of the lake.
When positioned between the granite bridge and
Teahouse Island, the boom lets the wind blow an algae
bloom under the granite bridge to the lake’s drain.
No strategy is foolproof, though; a heavy rainfall can alter
conditions drastically. By using the current multifaceted
approach and monitoring lake conditions closely, staff
constantly make adjustments in response to environmental
influences and keep a close eye on Mother Nature, which
is the ultimate teacher.

ee
Monsanto Center
Developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), LEED
EB/OM is a method for owners and operators of existing buildings
to implement sustainable operations and maintenance practices to
reduce the environmental impact of a building over its functional life
cycle. Certification required the implementation of green strategies as
they relate to all building operations such as landscape management,
snow removal, energy management, housekeeping, waste reduction,
purchasing, and indoor air quality.
“LEED EB/OM certification is not a final destination,’ said Deborah
Frank, vice president of sustainability. “Rather, it’s an ongoing
journey requiring the due diligence of many to continuously
monitor and maintain best practices in sustainable operations.”
Located at the corner of Shaw and Vandeventer, the Monsanto

Most visits to the Garden typically begin and end in the
parking lot. The next time you come, take a closer look at the
sustainable storm-water management strategies that are now in
place, including unique paving surfaces.
The east parking lot in front of the Ridgway Visitor Center
is reopen after much-needed repairs and improvements made
possible by federal funds through the Missouri Department of
Transportation. By incorporating areas of porous pavement
(concrete and asphalt), rain water filters through the pervious
surfaces and recharges the groundwater below instead of
overwhelming the municipal storm sewer system.
For areas paved with traditional impervious asphalt, rain water
drains into a bioswale area landscaped with native plants. Similar
to a backyard rain garden, the storm water is captured by the
plantings in the bioswale, allowing it to be absorbed slowly into
the ground while filtering out pollutants from the parking lot.
All asphalt and concrete from the old parking lot is being
recycled for future roadway aggregate.

Learning Green... In Greener Buildings
by Kim Petzing, EarthWays Center Supervisor of Education Programs
A green school is a healthy
environment that can physically
boost student learning while saving
energy and money. The “triple
bottom line” of sustainability
especially applies to managing
schools. Green schools benefit:
lV] people—studies have shown
how attendance and test scores
increase in schools that use elements
like daylight and outdoor learning;
Vv] planet—using fewer resources
generates less waste; green learning
helps future decision-makers
understand how natural resources are
used in buildings;
Vv] profit—egreen buildings stretch
school budgets with reduced utility
bills, green cleaning that’s healthier
for adults and kids, and tax revenue
advantages tied to school reputations.
In class, sustainability topics show
how the school and personal actions
impact our use of Earth’s resources.
Students learn to solve problems
with the understanding that there
often isn’t one right answer but
many elements to consider.

Butterfly House
USDA Regulations
and ‘Tropical Butterflies—
Why all the restrictions?
Did you know the Butterfly House doesn’t actually produce
any of the tropical butterflies flying about the conservatory? As
a major conservation effort, partnerships have been developed
with tropical farming operations that have turned to butterfly
farming as a much less invasive form of agriculture. These
partnerships are not only about conservation and habitat
restoration, they are also a requirement for tropical butterfly
facilities operating in the US.
All tropical butterfly breeding and importation is regulated by the
USDA-—APHIS-PPQ, (United States Department of Agriculture—
Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service—Plant Protection
and Quarantine). As tropical butterflies are considered plant
pests in the caterpillar stage, the USDA must ensure none are
allowed to escape into the environment. Specifications are also
in place for the construction of butterfly exhibits. As you visit
the Butterfly House, you may see some of these requirements
and not even realize the extensive containment efforts that occur
throughout. The double doors, air-conditioned vestibules, and
USDA signage are all part of these requirements, but most efforts
actually occur behind the scenes. For example, the packages of
butterflies received from the tropical farms must be opened only
in a quarantine laboratory, and all the packaging material must
be frozen or dipped in 70 percent alcohol before disposal. ‘These
regulations are also why guests are not permitted to remove any
living or dead butterflies or plant material from the conservatory.
Butterfly House staff member Chris Hartley
unpacks butterfly chrysalids from Surinam.
All of these regulations may seem excessive, but not
when you consider how some non-native species
negatively impact our environment. The gypsy
moth and emerald ash borer are both innocuous
in appearance, but they have become established
outside the range of natural predators and parasitoids
and are causing significant damage to native species.
The Butterfly House continues to work closely with
the USDA to ensure that the charismatic butterflies are
available for all to see and to tell their story of critical
plant and animal relationships that impact us all.
The Sophia M. Sachs Butterfly House will hold its signature gala, Wing Ding
2010, on Friday, June 25, at the Butterfly House in Faust Park.
This year’s gala theme is Pura Vida, or “full of life.” This festive affair
with a Costa Rican feel will come alive with colorful decorations,
food and beverages with a tropical flair, and lively music.

Celebrate with us the grace and beauty of the 1,500 butterflies that
flutter about the 8,000-square-foot conservatory, and discover the important
relationship between the Butterfly House and a butterfly farm in Costa Rica.
Proceeds from Pura Vida will support education programs, special exhibits,
and conservation initiatives at the Butterfly House. Ticket prices begin at
$250 (Young Friends of the Garden are eligible for reduced-price tickets).

Missouri Botanical Garden Bulletin Summer 2010
New Support Complex ~
Walks the Green Talk —
he new Environmental Support Complex at the Shaw Nature Reserve 1s green
in more ways than one. Construction was completed in April on the facility,
which consists of three buildings totaling more than 18,000 square feet to house
the Reserve’s Education, Horticulture, and Maintenance operations. Made possible in
part through donations to the Missouri Botanical Garden’s Stewards of the Earth capital
campaign, the new buildings replace facilities that were built in 1927 and 1930 to house
the Garden’s orchid collection and to support grounds maintenance.
The Reserve is pursuing LEED Gold certification for the complex, which includes
a building that provides office space, staff and volunteer work areas, a seed storage
room, conference and lunch rooms, and expanded storage space. A new general
operations building provides space for vehicle and equipment maintenance,
woodworking activities, and storage space for firefighting equipment. Rounding out
the complex is the new head house, which provides work areas and storage space for
all horticulture-related activities.
During demolition of the old buildings, over 90 percent of the materials were either
salvaged for reuse or recycled, reducing the amount of materials that had to be taken
to landfills. This includes over 16 tons of metal and piping that were recycled, as well
as 700 tons of aggregate created by crushing concrete floors and brickwork from the
old buildings.
Several features of the complex address sustainability issues, including an innovative
cooling system that uses about half the energy of a conventional cooling system,
passive solar features, and energy-efficient lighting. In addition, rainfall from the roofs
is collected in a large cistern that was built in 1927 when all of the Garden’s orchids
were moved to the Reserve. This water is used as part of the cooling system and for
watering plants. A 50,000-square-foot storm-water retention wetland planted with
native species will capture run-off from the support complex parking lot.
An added benefit of the new facilities is that they will bring education and outreach
staff on site from the Missouri Department of Conservation, increasing collaboration
opportunities between the department and the Reserve’s education staff:
Over 90 percent of the materials from the
facilities demolished to make way for the
Environmental Support Complex were
either recycled or salvaged for reuse.

President’s
Comment
When I arrived at the Missouri Botanical Garden in 1971
as its new director, the Bulletin was a black and white
publication just half the size of the magazine you hold now.
That issue contained articles on the construction of the
Lehmann Building under way at the time, how to grow
boxwood in the Midwest, and the dawn redwood and bald
cypress trees.
The Bulletin has changed considerably since then. What
hasn’t changed is our commitment to inform and connect
you with every facet of the Garden’s mission, from our 79
acres on Shaw Boulevard, to our family of attraction sites
throughout St. Louis and beyond, to the important research
and conservation work our scientists perform in 38 countries
around the world. When Henry Shaw founded the Garden
IMS joie Mitendedtomittouberaplaccl@hcclence and
discovery as well as great beauty. I think he would be
delighted and proud of how his gift to St. Louis has grown
and flourished.
There remains much to do. Of the approximately 400,000
species of plants believed to exist, nearly 50,000 remain to
be discovered. The pressures being brought to bear on the
survival of those plants has never been greater. The Garden’s
Science and Conservation Division maintains operations in
some of the world’s most threatened biodiversity hotspots,
such as the Amazonian central forest region of Peru, where
the Center for Conservation and Sustainable Development
works with local communities to help conserve and manage
their resources and sustainably coexist with nature.
Your membership and contributions have an impact
beyond the Garden’s walls and help support our activities
worldwide. The achievements this institution has
accomplished in the past 39 years would not have been
possible without the collective efforts and commitments
of our staff and volunteers; the communities in which we
operate; and our generous members, donors, and supporters.
For nearly four decades, it has been my privilege to work
alongside the Garden’s staff and supporters in this essential
endeavor. As president emeritus, I look forward to supporting
the Garden’s incoming president, Dr. Peter Wyse Jackson,
and continuing that work with you in the months and years
to come.

Dr. Peter Raven, Lisa and Renee Queen,
First Lady Georganne Nixon, and Dr. Pat Raven.
Governor’s Wife Speaks at
Healthy You, Healthy Planet Festival
Missouri First Lady Georganne Nixon spoke
at the Garden on July 17 as part of the second
annual Healthy You, Healthy Planet festival
sponsored by Siteman Cancer Center at
Barnes-Jewish Hospital and the Washington
University School of Medicine. Mrs. Nixon
discussed the “Children in Nature Challenge,”
which directs state agencies to encourage
Missouri communities to give children more
opportunities to learn about and experience
nature first-hand. Connecting children with
nature improves children’s physical, mental,
and emotional well-being.
Garden Researchers Investigate Traditional Malaria Remedies
Garden founder Henry Shaw died in 1889 due to complications from malaria. The disease, though treatable
with medication, still claims nearly one million lives around the world every year. Researchers with the Garden’s
Wiliam L. Brown Center have identified 17 plant species used as traditional anti-malarial and fever remedies among
communities in northern Peru. Their study was funded through a grant from the National Institutes of Health and
was published May 28 in the journal Ethnobotany Research & Applications.
Of the plants identified, most of them have not yet been tested to determine their effectiveness, said Dr. Rainer
Bussmann, the Garden’s William L. Brown Curator of Economic Botany and director of the Brown Center, who
co-authored the report with Sacred Seeds Program Manager Ashley Glenn. The next steps include testing the plants
individually for toxicity and then in combination for both efficacy and toxicity. Typically, traditional healers do not
use a given plant by itself, and different combinations may enhance their effectiveness while also lowering toxicity.
The investigation and discovery of new malaria treatments is of particular interest as use and misuse of over-
the-counter remedies have led to the widespread appearance of resistant parasites, and global climate change has
increased the areas susceptible to the spread of malaria vectors.
The William L. Brown Center at the Garden 1s dedicated to the study of useful plants, understanding the
relationships between humans, plants, and their environment, and the conservation of plant species and preservation
of traditional knowledge for the benefit of future generations.

Katherine Yutung Ren is this year’s
Power of Plants contest winner.
Power of Plants Winner
Congratulations to Katherine Yutung Ren, an
eighth-grader at Wydown Middle School in
Clayton, who was the grand prize winner in the
Garden’s second annual Power of Plants contest.
Sponsored by the Monsanto Fund, the contest
challenged youth in kindergarten through 12th
grades to pick a plant, learn about its qualities,
characteristics, and the ways it helps people,
and tell its “superhero” story through a creative
two- or three-dimensional work of art. Over
400 submissions were received from individuals
and groups in the bi-state region. Katherine’s
winning entry was a family scrapbook album for
the American persimmon (Diospyros virginiana),
which served as the inspiration for the newest
Power of Plants mascot, Ginny.
Entries for the 2010-2011 contest are being
accepted through January 31, 2011. For more
information, visit www.mobot.org/power.
Comormitc Eammer Protec:
New Chapter, Inc.
The Corporate Partners program is designed to strengthen the relationship
between the Missouri Botanical Garden and the corporate community in the
greater St. Louis metropolitan region and beyond. Corporate Partners at the
Principal level offer support and leadership at the highest level, and the Garden
recognizes their contributions periodically through features in the Bulletin.
Visit www.mobot.org/corporate for more information on the Corporate
Partners program.
New Chapter Inc. was founded in 1982 by Paul and Barbi
Schulick out of a passion to promote health through innovative
botanical formulations delivered as whole foods and herbs. A
certified organic manufacturer of dietary supplements, New
Chapter is a foundation member of the Organic Center and a
member of the Sustainable Packaging Coalition.
New Chapter operates Luna Nueva, a 200-acre biodynamic,
organic and sustainable ginger and turmeric farm in Costa Rica.
Under the leadership of New Chapter CEO Tom Newmark,
its mission has expanded to become an educational resource
center and help Costa Rican farmers learn and adopt sustainable
agriculture practices. In collaboration with the Monteverde
Conservation League US Inc., New Chapter has purchased and is
helping to restore forest on a tract of land between Luna Nueva
and the 54,000-acre Children’s Eternal Rainforest, creating a
wildlife corridor for migrating species. New Chapter devotes 10
percent or more of its after-tax profits to the support of sustainable
farming practices, the conservation of tropical rainforests, and the
sacred seeds that sustain all herbal traditions.
At the Missouri Botanical Garden, New Chapter is a strong
supporter of the William L. Brown Center and the Sacred Seeds
Initiative. Sacred Seeds is a network of sanctuaries for medicinal
and other useful plants that are vulnerable to loss of habitat,
inappropriate harvesting, or climate change. New Chapter and the
Brown Center are working to encourage and create Sacred Seeds
Sanctuaries around the world with communities and botanical
research institutions. To learn more, visit www.newchapter.com.
Garden Banners Get Second Life as Totes
The Missouri Botanical Garden believes in recycling. Our horticulture staff
composts nearly 100 percent of the Garden’s leaves and woody debris, and we
print documents on 100 percent post-consumer recycled paper. Now even the
Garden’s colorful outdoor vinyl banners are finding a new use as carrier bags
and garden totes.
Sew Sack Sew, a local, family-owned small business, takes donated banners and
turns them into bags, each cut and sewn individually. For more information,

Adopt-A-Plant for Fall
Adopt a plant from the Missouri Botanical Garden and help further
the Garden’s mission!
For $30, Plant Parents receive a certificate of adoption that includes
a five-by-seven-inch image of the plant, suitable for framing, as well
as additional information about the plant. Plant Parents also will have
their names listed on the Garden’s website each season. Upgrade
to $40 and take part in a Garden walking tour on September 30
highlighting plants featured for fall adoption.
Plants available for adoption beginning September 1 are:
New England aster | The royal purple blooms
of the New England aster (Symphyotrichum novae-
angliae) provide a burst of color as we enter fall.
Look for it in the Boxwood Garden, near the
William T. Kemper Center for Home Gardening,
and in border gardens near Ridgway Visitor Center.
Chrysanthemum | Mums, with their fragrant
blooms and dark green leaves, beautifully
complement the deep, vibrant hues of autumn. Find
mums everywhere in the Garden but especially in
the Japanese Garden and Kemper Center.
Short’s goldenrod | Dr. Charles Short found
Solidago shortii growing in Kentucky in 1840. It
was believed for decades to be extinct until a new
population was discovered in the mid-20th century
in Kentucky. In this century, ecologists found the
plant in Indiana. Today, the Missouri Botanical
Garden is the primary custodian of this plant.
The Garden will introduce three new plants for adoption each
season. To adopt a plant today, visit www.mobot.org/adopt.

father, has been completed just south of
the Lehmann Building, across from the
Strassenfest German Garden. Previously,
Roy, a member of the Garden’s Board of
Trustees, generously provided a tranquil
wooded area at the west end of the
English Woodland Garden in memory
of his mother. Distinctive features of the
garden include benches hewn out of logs
and a mural inspired by traditional Bavarian folk art, painted by local
artist Grace McCammond of Signature Arts, that decorates the side
of an experimental greenhouse.

Where Did the Camellias Go?
While the Linnean House is undergoing
extensive renovations, the Garden’s collection
of camellia plants is taking a vacation in the
country. In all, 67 plants have been sent to Buy
the Bunch Florist, located in Ste. Genevieve,
where they will stay until this spring, when
work is completed on the Linnean House
and the weather is warm enough to return
the plants to their home on Garden grounds.
Renovation of the Linnean House 1s made
possible thanks to a generous gift from the
Mabel Dorn Reeder Foundation.
@neliticsday, jumers, the Garden celebrated the
commitment of its volunteers at the annual volunteer
service recognition luncheon. Awards were given to
volunteers for service commitments of 10, 20, 30, and, in
one case, 40 years! Without the skills and dedication of its
corps of volunteers, the Garden could not operate at its
current level of excellence.
Here’s to 40 years!
Some of Melanie Fathman’s earliest memories are of taking
botany walks with Edgar Anderson, the former director of
the Garden and founder of the St. Louis Herb Society and
the Herb Society of America. As a member of the St. Louis
Herb Society, Melanie has held many positions, including
the presidency, along with helping maintain the herb
garden and propagate herbs in the greenhouses. Melanie
has taught courses for the Herb Society and the Speakers’
Bureau as well as adult courses in cooking and the history
of landscape architecture. She has worked on three of the
four cookbooks the Herb Society has produced. One of
Melanie’s most rewarding projects was a collaborative effort
with two of her Herb Society cohorts, Barb Ottolini and
Pat Leigh. They produced the book It’s All in the Name: A
Guide to the Botanical Names of Some Herbs and Useful Plants.

Leadership
Program
Inspiring Future
Environmental Leaders
by Meg Hoester, ECO-ACT Supervisor and
Kristi Ruggles, Donor Communications Coordinator
Nicole Miller-Struttmann has fond
memories of being an ECO-ACT student
in the fourth grade at Holy Redeemer
Elementary School. ECO-ACT “really
solidified in me at a young age that the
environment was important to me,” she says.
Currently a Ph.D. candidate in Ecology, Evolution, and
Population Biology at Washington University, Nicole
remembers ECO-ACT as a chance to explore ecological
and environmental issues in-depth. Though her parents
were relatively eco-friendly, she says ECO-ACT “was
the first opportunity I had to give numbers to things and
names to environmental theories and ideas.”
Later, as a high school student at Nerinx Hall, Nicole had
a chance to give back as an ECO-ACT leader, teaching a
new group of fourth graders about the environment: “What
was really cool about the high school program was that I
could actually see the students learn and hope that I was
having the same impact on them as I felt in grade school.”
The Missouri Botanical Garden’s Saigh Foundation ECO-
ACT Environmental Leadership Program engages St. Louis-
area teens in learning and teaching about ecological concepts
and environmental issues. Students participate in a variety
of activities including teaching fourth graders once a week,
summer training, and weekend outings and workshops
throughout the school year. The weekend outings were
some of the most fun ECO-ACT experiences, Nicole says.
From caving and rock climbing to spending time at the
Shaw Nature Reserve, Nicole appreciated the time spent
with her fellow students.
“T think it’s a good way to build camaraderie between
students from different schools,” she says. “Growing up in

Webster Groves, it was nice to be able to get outside and
not have everything based in the city.” Many alumni of the
program note that they gained a new sense of connection to
the natural world during their ECO-ACT experience.
Meeting people from different areas and varied
backgrounds was also a great learning opportunity for
Nicole. “Just getting to know a lot of people from a non-
Catholic school background was different and new for
Mies? SlieisAayc,
At Washington University, one of Nicole’s research
projects focuses on investigating glade-endemic plants in
Missouri to see how stress adaptations might affect their
floral traits and their pollinator interactions. She teaches
at the college level and participated in a graduate student
program similar to ECO-ACT. The Young Scientist
Program at Washington University involves graduate
students teaching inner-city high-school students about
general science concepts and theories in an interactive,
hands-on manner. When Nicole began working with
the program, it was focused on evolution and biomedical
sciences. Since then, she has established an ecology-
focused portion.
Nicole and colleague Kyra Krakos also initiated a program
in partnership with the Missouri Botanical Garden called
Students in the Garden. Graduate students are paired with
Garden researchers and take a course on basic ecological
principles related to the research, which includes a wide
variety of guest lecturers.

For Tanya Cross, Science Is Everything
Tanya Cross was always ready for
the question, “What do you want to
be when you grow up?”
She wanted to teach. Her mom was
a teacher, and as a child Tanya loved
to play school. (Her favorite part of
pretend-teaching was grading papers.
That changed.)
What Tanya did not know as a
child is that she would grow up to
teach science. That changed, too,
when she participated in ECO-ACT
in high school. Throughout the
program, Tanya canoed, backpacked,
camped, and generally got her hands
dirty. In the meantime, she received
real experiences in a classroom.
“Without ECO-ACT, I would not
have gone into science,” she said. “It
led me outside exploring and learning
to see things around me like water
systems, animals, and insects. I enjoyed
being able to teach the younger
students, but the best part of the
experience for me was being taught by
ECO-ACT leaders in the outdoors.”
Today, Tanya brings that same
sense of discovery to elementary
schoolchildren. She is a program
specialist with MySci, a science
education program presented by
the Monsanto Fund and developed
by Washington University, the
Saint Louis Science Center,
the Missouri Botanical Garden,
and the Saint Louis Zoo.
The program includes a pair of
grab-your-attention green trailers,
the MySci Investigation Stations,
which travel to schools throughout
the region. The interior of the
Investigation Station 1s like a
“science museum” for children to
touch and explore. Tanya said the
vehicle makes science tangible.
“The way we come into this life
is science,” she said. “Everything
around us is science. We can live
Tanya Cross
our lives better if we understand
what is going on around us—
if we understand science.”
She credits the Garden and ECO-
ACT with awakening in her this
love for science and the confidence
to teach it to others.

y
Though she didn’t decide on a science
career until college, Nicole says her
experiences in ECO-ACT opened the
door to the importance of science in
her life. Because of ECO-ACT, “I had
always maintained that interest... and I
was made more aware of how science
is an important public issue.”
Creating lesson plans and undertaking
the organization needed to teach
ditmecrher ECO-AG iT expenence has
given Nicole a great appreciation for
teachers and teaching.
“To some degree you teach something
any time you are communicating to
anybody in any job,” she says. “A lot
of what we do as scientists is just trying
to communicate with other scientists,
but increasingly it is communicating
with the non-science community that
is really important.”

In an area slightly smaller than the state of Alaska, Peru
has more than 19,000 species of plants—about as many
as occur in all of the United States. Of those, at least 28
percent are found nowhere else in the world. Yet Peru's
biodiversity—one of the richest in the world—is also one of
the most threatened.
For more than 30 years, the Missouri Botanical Garden has
worked to increase knowledge of Peru’s extraordinarily rich flora.
Protecting Peru's Since its founding in 2001, the Garden’s Center for Conservation
" . = . and Sustainable Development (CCSD) has amplified this mission.
Biodiversity in In the Amazonian central forest region of Peru (la selva central),
the work concentrates in three Protected Natural Areas on the
eastern flank of the Andes in the Palcazu River watershed: the
Yanachaga-Chemillén National Park, the San Carlos-San Matias
Protected Forest, and the Yanesha Communal Reserve. These
areas lie within the homeland of the indigenous Yanesha people
and harbor an estimated 6,000 plant species.

National Park, central Peru. CCSD provides the Santa
Rosita Women’s Association with tools to clear plots and
cultivate crops for consumption by the pacas they raise.
Heavy rains triggered a series of great landslides of stone
and earth that blocked 25 kilometers of the access road in
the area where Garden researchers were working. Members
of the Santa Rosita Women’s Association clear weeds from
Oenocarpus bataua, one of the Amazonian fruit trees
planted by the women to supplement the diet of the pacas.
Although relatively inaccessible, the region faces intense pressure
from deforestation. Earlier this year, the United Nations
Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO)
added the region to its Worldwide Network of Biosphere Reserves,
highlighting the importance and vulnerability of its biodiversity.
Sometimes, just getting to the flora can be a challenge. On a trip
into the field in February 2009, the Garden’s program director in
Peru, Rodolfo Vasquez, described how torrential rains triggered
heavy landslides that blocked the only road accessing the field
site. After waiting for three days for the road to become passable,
1 0 Missouri Botanical Garden Bulletin — Fall 2010
he and other Garden botanists had no choice but to proceed on foot
with all of their equipment.
“We had to slog through the mud that covered the road, often dodging
to avoid the stones that fell from the top of the road-slope or crossing
torrents of water and mud,” he reported.
Collection and conservation are vital parts of the Garden and CCSD’s
activity in Peru, but they’re only one aspect of the story. CCSD is
dedicated to helping local residents develop the capabilities to preserve
and manage their biological resources for their own benefit. In Peru,
Garden field botanists and conservationists train university students,
young professionals, and community members in the skills needed to
understand and manage their own natural resources and sustainably
coexist with nature.
CCSD has worked since 2001 with the indigenous Yanesha people living
in the Palcazu River watershed. In this area, one of South America’s
most diverse but critically threatened regions, CCSD’s work focuses
on securing biodiversity while helping the Yanesha build sustainable
communities. CCSD team members are providing technical assistance
in the cultivation of native fruit trees to indigenous schools as well as
to community organizations such as the Association of Women for
Management of Wild Species. The women grow fruits that feed Agouti
paca, small mammals they are raising initially as a food source and,
eventually, to generate supplemental income through sales in nearby
markets. The project is the first of several aimed at reducing wild
harvesting, using the natural resources of the region sustainably, and
generating employment opportunities.

SALAD GAKDENING
Keep the Harvest Going Past Summer's End
by Benjamin Hudson, Fruit and Vegetable Horticulturist
After the first hard frost signals the
end of the traditional growing season,
many backyard gardeners heave a
sigh of relief and put their gardens
on the back burner until next spring.
The diehard gardeners, however,
have already buried their noses deep
in next year’s seed catalogs. Why
dream of spring, though, when you
can continue your backyard garden
through the fall and winter months by
growing a winter salad garden?
Choose a sheltered, sunny spot and
prepare your garden bed just the same
as you did for your summer garden. For
a fall harvest, begin seeding your garden
between late July and mid-August,
and be sure to continuously seed every
couple of weeks thereafter to stagger
the harvest through fall and into winter.

Missouri Botanical Garden Bulletin
For seedlings that will be emerging in
late summer, be sure to keep them well-
watered to prevent wilting.
Pay close attention to the weather and
protect the plants as the temperature
drops below freezing. Many
techniques and materials can be used
to keep the salad garden producing
well into winter:
¢ Windbreaks and Walls can add
from 10° F to 15° F of warmth to
your garden by blocking the cold
winter winds and using the free solar
energy of the sun.
* Cloches can best be described as
portable greenhouses of various
designs. Materials used to create a
cloche range from very stiff wire
frames holding glass panes, to clear,

gallon-size plastic bleach or soda
bottles with their bottoms removed.
Be aware that cloches have to be
removed on bright, sunny days to
prevent excessive heat buildup.
Floating Row Covers are made of
a lightweight, white fabric such as
Reemay® placed directly on top of
and supported by the plants. Floating
row covers primarily help keep the
frost off and can extend the growing
season by several weeks.
Low Tunnels are created by placing
hoops over each row of vegetables
and covering the hoops with plastic
sheeting. These low tunnels protect
plants from frost and warm the air
inside the tunnel, allowing cold-
hardy plants to grow even in the

dead of winter! Just like cloches,
they may need to be vented on
bright, sunny days.
* Raised Beds typically are
constructed of stone, bricks,
concrete, recycled plastic lumber, or
untreated lumber. The soil in a well-
made and maintained raised bed can
be between 8° F and 12° F warmer
than the same soil in the surrounding
garden areas. Another advantage 1s
the accessibility of the beds and the
decreased need to bend over to work
in, or harvest from, the raised beds.
* Cold Frames are permanent
structures that considerably lengthen
the growing season. Cold frames
can be constructed from scratch,
by purchasing a kit, or by using an
old window sash. The cold frame
should face south for maximum
exposure to sunlight. To provide
ventilation, partially open your cold
frame during sunny, warm weather.
During cold snaps, cover the cold
frame with burlap or heavy cloth for
extra warmth.
¢ Hot Beds are cold frames with
a source of bottom heat such as
electric heating cables.
Although the winter salad garden
can be planted as early as late July,
it is possible to plant yours now by
using the techniques described here.
Excellent fall crops that can be planted
at this time include spinach, leaf
lettuce, kale, and chard. By covering
these crops with a floating row cover,
they can be grown well into winter.
Other good crop choices include
Chinese cabbage, radishes, turnips,
kohlrabi, beets, and carrots. (Short
varieties of carrots will develop faster
and perform better in our heavy soils.)

Squash bees are entirely dependent on
the pollen and nectar of members of the
squash family Cucurbitaceae.
by Mike Arduser, Natural History
Biologist, Missouri Department of
Conservation
and Jennifer Hopwood, Midwest
Pollinator Outreach Coordinator,
The Xerces Society for Invertebrate
Conservation
” Going Native
ith.Squash Bees
Pp ollination is one of those services nature provides that most of us take for
granted. We reap the obvious benefits—tripe strawberries, blueberries,
tomatoes, sunflower seeds—and enjoy the not-so-obvious ones—beautiful
natural communities like prairies, glades, and forests. The plants that make up
these habitats—coneflowers, gentians, shooting stars, Indian grass, white oak,
trout lily, and countless others—will not reproduce unless they are pollinated,
some by wind (grasses, oaks, hickories) but the vast majority by certain kinds of
insects. In the same way we depend ultimately on pollination to produce much
of our food, the great diversity of animals in those natural communities depends
on pollination services for their survival.
Of all the pollinating insects (bees, flies, butterflies, moths, beetles, and some
others), bees are by far the most important group. Only bees construct nests and
feed pollen to their young, and this obligation requires bees to repeatedly visit
flowers, usually resulting in ample and abundant pollination in a population of
plants and in a community.
The honey bee is the “bee” we all think of when we hear the word. Like most
of our agricultural animals, this bee 1s an import. Early colonists brought it
from the Old World for its wax and honey, and it has since spread across much
of the continent, through commerce and on its own. Our native bees in the
Midwest (there are well over 600 different kinds) are quite different: most are
1 4 Missouri Botanical Garden Bulletin — Fall 2010

photo by Jennifer Hopwood
solitary, annual species that nest in the ground, are in flight
for only a short time (a month or so), don’t make honey,
and are not managed for pollination the way the honey
bee 1s. Unlike the honey bee, which will collect pollen
and nectar from nearly any plant, many native bees are
pollen specialists and have evolved very specific, dependent
relationships with certain kinds of plants. These bees are
found only where their “host” plants are found.
One of the most interesting groups of “specialist” bees
are the squash bees: fast-flying, early-rising, large, fuzzy,
friendly bees entirely dependent on the pollen and nectar
of certain species in the squash family (Cucurbita spp.,
Cucurbitaceae, including pumpkins, acorn squashes,
gourds, and others). Native to the New World, both
squash bees (about 20 species in the genera Peponapis and
Xenoglossa) and the Cucurbita lineage evolved together,
and several squash bee species have been following the
domestication and spread of various annual Cucurbita over
the past 10,000 years or so.
Exactly how squash bees locate squash plants isn’t entirely
clear, but today, two species of squash bee (Peponapis
pruinosa and Xenoglossa strenua) occur just about anywhere
Cucurbita spp. are grown, as far north as Maine, Michigan,
and Wisconsin, and within large cities like St. Louis (see
below). Squash bees nest in the ground near their host
plants; heavy, thick mulching tends to discourage them,
so some bare soil in a garden is good for squash bees and
other native bees.
Squash and pumpkin flowers are very large, showy, and
ephemeral, and cannot self-pollinate because the flowers
are either male or female, not both. The flowers open
in the pre-dawn, and usually last but a few hours before
they wilt, and the remaining pollen in them loses much of
its viability. Their pollination window is therefore quite
short, and therein lies the importance of the squash bees:
they start working flowers and collecting pollen while it
is still dark, long before honey bees or other native bees
are active, and close up shop before noon in most cases.
Squash bees are the premier example of undomesticated,
unmanaged native bees serving as primary pollinators for an
economically important group of plants.
Males and occasionally females “sleep” or loaf in closed
or unopened flowers—peek inside a pumpkin flower just
after dawn this summer, and you are likely to see the small,
fuzzy head of a squash bee looking back at you.
This community garden, established in 2009, is
already frequented by Peponapis pruninosa.
Fall 2010
Squash Bees in the City
by Jennifer Hopwood and Mike Arduser
Rural and urban gardeners alike rely on bees to pollinate fruits
and vegetables, but for specialist bees, urban environments may
not be particularly inviting. It might be expected that squash
bees, as specialists of Cucurbita spp., would be absent or in
small numbers in large cities where gardens with pumpkins and
zucchini are few and far between. Surprisingly, in a 2009 survey
of 25 community gardens in St. Louis, Peponapis pruninosa (squash
bees) were present in every garden, even those with just a single
squash plant. Additionally, P. pruninosa were the most abundant
visitors to the community garden squash plants. Squash bees were
even found in gardens that were established earlier in the growing
season, indicating that squash bees must be extremely adept at
identifying even very small patches of squash—good news for
urban gardeners who enjoy pumpkin pie and zucchini casserole.

A Native Bounty for Your Table by Cindy Gilberg
n our modern world, we have become disconnected from
the natural world around us, especially when it comes
to the source and seasonality of our food. Eating locally
is even more relevant when the food 1s harvested from
plants indigenous to our region. Each edible native plant
yields its flavorful offering according to the seasons—
fiddleheads and wild strawberries in spring, blackberries
and gooseberries in summer, and persimmons in the fall.
Create a culinary connection with the natural world and
discover an abundance of gourmet cuisine for your table.
Instead of foraging for these plants, many are buying
and growing the plants themselves. Edible landscaping
has gained renewed popularity, and sales of edible plants
have soared for the first time since the victory gardens of
the World War II era. Buying nursery-propagated native
plants or seed has the extra advantage of helping avoid
misidentification of plants in the wild.
The rhythm of the seasons is marked by some familiar
favorites. After a long winter, the soft pink flowers on the
redbud tree (Cercis canadensis) are a welcome sign of spring.
The clusters of flowers are edible and make an unusually
attractive addition to fruit or vegetable dishes and in salads.
Violets are another spring edible flower you may want to
try. In April, ostrich ferns (Matteuccia struthiopteris) begin to
unfurl their tightly wound fronds, known in the gourmet
world as fiddleheads. When sautéed in butter, fiddleheads
are a splendid rival to asparagus.

Missouri Botanical Garden Bulletin
Fall 2010
What would summer be without the abundance of berries?
Wild blackberries (Rubus spp.) and black raspberries (Rubus
occidentalis) yield amazingly sweet fruit for snacks, pies, and
preserves. After spicy-scented flowers bloom in spring, the
golden currant (Ribes odoratum) has a summer crop of edible
berries. The gooseberry (Ribes missouriense), a three-foot-
tall shrub that grows in woodlands, yields fruit that can be
cooked in pies when green or eaten fresh when ripe. These
berries are especially appealing to birds, so sharing is part of
the harvest.
The fruits of fall are equally delicious. Pawpaw (Asimina
triloba) is a large-leaved understory tree that bears
delectable fruit in September. Harvesting this elusive fruit
can be difficult as it is a favorite of raccoons. Its flavor
is reminiscent of banana mango custard—such a tropical
taste on a Missouri native tree! A plentiful yield of fruit
is found on persimmons (Diospyros virginiana), ripening
in September and October. Forager, beware—the unripe
fruit is exceptionally astringent. A brisk shake of the tree
or branches will loose a sweet snack of ripe fruit that is
a rich apricot color. Persimmon pudding is among the
highly desirable native plant recipes.
Nuts are also a sign of fall, and the hazelnut is among
the finest. This large shrub is worthy of a place in home
landscapes not only for its flavorful nuts but also for its
spectacular, red-orange fall color.
For tea drinkers, the leaves of wild bergamot (Monarda
fistulosa) lend a minty flavor to tea. So does hairy
From left: In September, pawpaw
(Asimina triloba) bears fruit with
a flavor similar to banana mango
custard. Persimmons (Diospyros
virginiana) ripen in September and
October. Wild strawberries are a
favorite harbinger of spring.
mountain mint (Pycnanthemum pilosum). Rose hips are an excellent
source of vitamin C. Spice bush (Lindera benzoin), more of a small
tree than a bush, has a spicy smell and flavor mildly reminiscent of
allspice. Chop and use the leaves, bark, and even the spring flowers
for brewing tea. New Jersey tea (Ceonathus americanus) earned its
reputation during the Boston Tea Party protest against taxation of
imported tea. The dried leaves make a respectable cup of tea, as do
wild strawberry (Fragaria virginica) and the dried flower clusters of
linden (Tilia americana).
Remember, be an informed forager. Learn to properly identify
native edible plants as well as which parts are edible and how to
prepare them. Shaw Nature Reserve offers classes on identification
and on edible natives and mushrooms. In addition to numerous
general field guides, a few focus on edible native plants. Adding
some of these edible native plants to a home landscape is yet
another way to connect with the rich heritage of our region.

House’s relationship with El Bosque
Nuevo, a butterfly preserve in
Costa Rica. Guests enjoyed festive
decorations, lively music, and
tropics-inspired food and beverages.
Proceeds from the event support

Dr. Raven Day ! August 6, 2010
More than 500 members of the community turned out to
publicly recognize Dr. Peter Raven for his nearly four decades
of leadership as president of the Missouri Botanical Garden. In
addition to proclamations from St. Louis Mayor Francis Slay
and St. Louis County Executive Charlie Dooley, Dr. Raven
also received a rarely given key to the city from Mayor Slay.
Well-wishers had an opportunity to thank Dr. Raven personally
and sign a memory book, and also purchase a Metasequoia
glyptostroboides ‘Raven’ Shaw’s Legacy® Dawn Redwood.
