Scientific Name of Plants Ornamental Perennials The following is a list of the common plant names cross referenced to the scientific name of plants. The list represents some of the most popular varieties of perennial plants. The scientific names of plants is based on taxonomy‚ the science of plant classification. Each name has two parts‚ the genus and the specie. This is referred to as the binomial (two names)system founded by Linnaeus‚ a Swedish botanist. Some species will have a third name‚

Chemical Fertilizer vs Organic Fertilizer A chemical fertilizer is defined as any inorganic material of wholly or partially synthetic origin that is added to the soil to sustain plant growth. Organic fertilizers are substances that are derived from the remains or by products of organisms which contain the essential nutrients for plant growth. Comparison chart | Chemical Fertilizer | Organic Fertilizer | NPK Ratio: | 20 to 60% | About 14% | Example: | Ammonium sulfate‚ ammonium phosphate‚ ammonium

Roots The root system of a flowering plant begins its development from the hypocotyl of the embryo of the seed which gives rise to the primary root. Roots generally grow downwards into the soil (positively geotropic) and upwards (negatively geotropic). Roots do not bear leaves and therefore no nodes are present.Two kinds of root systems can be distinguished in flowering plants: tap root systems and adventitious root systems. Usually dicotyledons posses tap root systems and monocotyledons adventitious

FIXING PEA PLANTS (Pisum sativum) ON GROWTH OF CORN (Zea mays) Introduction Interactions among plant species‚ particularly negative ones‚ have been a concern in agriculture (Levene 1926‚ Russell 1961). Novoa (1981) suggested that it would be advantageous to rotate certain crops by season‚ grow certain crops together‚ or avoid growing certain crops on the same land. Observations indicated that some crops require specific types of nutrients in contrast to other crop species‚ and plants within

growth and development of Wisconsin Fast Plants Introduction It is common knowledge that plants need light to grow and develop. This is done by the conversion of light energy into usable sugars during photosynthesis. Light absorbing molecules‚ known as pigments‚ absorb only specific wavelengths of visible light‚ mostly blue and red wavelengths (1). Whatever wavelength isn’t absorbed is reflected and the reflection is the color of plant we see. Plants also respond to wavelengths of light in non-photosynthetic
