Highlights and Sticky Notes:

The Blackgum tree, Nyssa sylvatica, is also known as the Black Tupelo or Sourgum. Blackgum trees are considered one of our most beautiful native trees. It is thought of as one of the five best shade trees in America.

Northern Tree Nut Crops

Tue, 01 Jan 2008 18:36:42 -0000

Comments:

Good information on various nut trees including growth rates and time to first yields.
posted by jjspirko

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

Many tree species can produce valuable crops of food as well as fiber. Several exotic species have been adapted to northern climates and soils. Several domestic species hold potential for further improvement. They are all amenable to a wide range of management systems. Members of the Northern Nut Growers Association and North American Fruit Explorers have over the past 90 years substantially reduced the risks and increased the opportunities for tree crops investments.

JSTOR: American Midland Naturalist: Vol. 96, No. 2 (Oct., 1976), pp. 443-450

Tue, 01 Jan 2008 16:51:24 -0000

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

Twelve food sources were used, the flower buds of red maple (Acer rubrum) and silver maple (Acer saccharinum) and buds and flowers of sugar maple (Acer saccharum) being most important. Of the 213 fox and 41 red squirrel feeding observations, 48% of the observations were of squirrels feeding on buds, with 26% being on sugar maple buds and 21% on red and silver maple buds. Due to a diversity in bud swelling, flowering and fruiting periods of the food trees, food was available throughout the study period. The gross energy values of red maple flower buds and sugar maple buds were determined to be 4.633 kcal/g or 0.01865 kcal per bud and 4.478 kcal/g or 0.05598 kcal per bud, respectively. Maple trees appeared to be as important as mast producers for the survival of the squirrel populations.

African House Snake Information & Care

Mon, 29 Oct 2007 17:49:32 -0000

Comments:

This site is dedicated to African House Snakes and other African Colubrids.
I have personally been working with snakes since 1984 and have found a special love for the snakes that make up the Genus Lamprophis, (which means the shining snake). The African House Snake is actually quite misunderstood despite how easy most species are to care for.
There is massive confusion about several of the species and sub species, breeding issues and "morphs" and "color phases". Unlike many typical Colubrids there is still a tremendous amount of work to be done with House Snakes. It is the sheer volume of unknowns and taxonomic work yet to be done that led me to work with African House Snakes.
