Container Wall

Some growers produce trees in fabric containers above ground. The fabric allows air to prune roots and the fabric itself prunes roots. The result is a reduction in the amount of roots circling around the container wall. There is little published information on the tree growth in this production system.

Stolon production by strawberry plants in Florida fruiting fields is highly undesirable. Stolons (runners) act as a sink for photosynthates and nutrients, reducing the amount of resources available for fruit production in an annual hill production system. The presence of stolons makes it more difficult for pickers to find berries among the excess vegetation. Hence, manual labor must be used to remove runners in the fruiting field at a cost of $40 to $60 per acre. If a low-cost chemical means could be found to reduce or eliminate runner production in the fruiting field, producers would benefit greatly. This document is HS989, one of a series of the Horticultural Sciences Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

The Common

Cicada killers, or giant ground hornets, are among the largest wasps in Florida (up to 40 mm in length). They are conspicuous insects, since the males are territorial and will butt or grapple with intruders including other males. There are 22 species of Sphecius Dahlbom in the world and all hunt cicadas as far as is known. Two of four Nearctic species of Sphecius occur in Florida. The females of the common Florida species, Sphecius speciosus (Drury), hunt Tibicen spp. cicadas and can dig 4-foot burrows in the ground with several branches and cells. The provisioning with cicadas is nearly specific to Sphecius in the family Sphecidae, but is known in a few other sphecids such as Liogorytes joergenseni (Brethes) from Argentina (Bohart and Stange 1976). This document is EENY295, one of a series of the Entomology and Nematology Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

Long Time

This is one of the great moments in time when a renowned but limited perennial flower has the roof blown off of its genetic potential. The advances in Echinacea breeding we will be seeing emerge on the market in the next few years are some of the most exciting changes I've seen a long time. I'm hoping this is the beginning of not only some fantastic new hybrids but also increased awareness of some of the lesser known species. This document is ENH 993, one of a series of the Environmental Horticulture Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.
