Tropical Nursery Manual - 20 មករា 2014

A Guide to Starting and Operating a Nursery for Native and Traditional Plants

This handbook was written for anyone endeavoring to start and operate a nursery for native and traditional plants in the tropics. Because the tropics cover a vast area of the world, however, the scope of the handbook is geared toward readers in the U.S. affiliated tropics. Specifically, the U.S. affiliated tropics are a diverse area spanning two oceans and half the globe, including the nations of the Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of Palau, and the Republic of the Marshall Islands, as well as the Territory of Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, the Territory of American Samoa, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and the State of Hawai‘i, southern California, Texas, and the southern part of Florida (see map on following page). Areas with similar conditions may also be served. This handbook is not a species-by-species account, though propagation protocols for many tropical species are available on the Native Plant Network (http://www.nativeplantnetwork.org).

The Woody Plant Seed Manual - 20 កក្កដា 2008

This handbook on the seeds of woody plants would not be possible if not for the pioneering work of many individuals in past years. They worked without the modern laboratory and information retrieval services that we now routinely use and take for granted. Their early efforts in the first half of the 20th century solved many seed problems and pointed the way for later research on numerous subjects. Without them, our body of knowledge about the seeds of woody plants would not be what it is today. Many contributed, but for their extensive work and leadership, we dedicate this book to the following pioneers:

• George S. Allen Canadian Forestry Service & University of British Columbia
• Henry I. Baldwin New Hampshire Forestry Department
• Lela V. Barton Boyce Thompson Institute
• Claude E. Heit New York Agricultural Experiment Station
• Nikolas T. Mirov USDA Forest Service
• Paul O. Rudolf USDA Forest Service
• Charles F. Swingle USDA Bureau of Plant Industry
• W. R. Van Dersal USDA Soil Conservation Service
• Philip C. Wakeley USDA Forest Service
