Title: Seed Identification : photos of named seed varieties.
Post by: Maggi Young on November 01, 2009, 02:41:51 PM
Seed Identification : photos of named seed varieties.


This topic is exclusively for posting photographs of named, fully identified, seeds.
The object  is to work towards as full a listing of verified seeds as possible.
Please do not post comments or questions in this thread, or photos of seed of which you are unsure of the ID. Such matters may be posted here: http://www.srgc.org.uk/smf/index.php?topic=1010.0 (http://www.srgc.org.uk/smf/index.php?topic=1010.0)

The photos must conform to the usual Forum restrictions and  must include something to indicate the size of the seed, preferably using a background of  1mm  graph paper or a metric ruler. The inclusion in the photo of the plant name is a distinct advantage.

Wherever possible, please include the plant name in the name of the photo file and always include the plant name in the text of the post…. otherwise it is impossible to search for the image.

It is our intention that the information gained here will be used to add to similar information in cooperation with NARGS and the AGS  to obtain as full a listing of photos of verified seed as possible. Grateful thanks to all those who are contributing, or who will contribute their photos to this project.

Atlas of Seeds and Fruits of Central and East-European Flora: The Carpathian Mountains Region (Hardcover)
by Vít Bojnanský (Author), Agáta Fargaová (Author)

Over one thousand pages, glossary, pictorial glossary, drawings, descriptions....   8)


http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1402053614/sr=1-1/qid=1324133197/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=&qid=1324133197&sr=1-1&seller=#reader_1402053614

Springer, 2007 - Science - 1046 pages
The Atlas of Seeds and Fruits of Central and East-European Flora presents nearly 4,800 seed illustrations, supplemented with detailed seed descriptions, brief plant descriptions, and information on the locality and the native source of plants. The Carpathian flora covered in this atlas occurs not only in the Carpathian Mountains, but also in large lowlands extending towards the south, north and east and involves introduced and invading flora of more than 7,500 species. Since the morphological characteristics of the seeds are usually constant they are very important for determination of systematic units. This publication is unique on two counts. Its scope extends to an unprecedented number of different plant seeds from a wide-ranging region. Moreover, it presents descriptions in unusual detail.

How odd! My seeds are a different shape from the PBS ones, of the Tecophilaea. Maybe it's to do with how tightly the pods were packed. I had two pods, one with 14 and the other with 15 seeds.
Mine had dried for about 4 days and the gloss was off them.

Seed Identification : photos of named seed varieties.


This topic is exclusively for posting photographs of named, fully identified, seeds.
The object  is to work towards as full a listing of verified seeds as possible.
Please do not post comments or questions in this thread, or photos of seed of which you are unsure of the ID. Such matters may be posted here: http://www.srgc.org.uk/smf/index.php?topic=1010.0 (http://www.srgc.org.uk/smf/index.php?topic=1010.0)

The photos must conform to the usual Forum restrictions i.e. maximum 760  pixels  wide and must include something to indicate the size of the seed, preferably using a background of  1mm  graph paper or a metric ruler. The inclusion in the photo of the plant name is a distinct advantage.

Wherever possible, please include the plant name in the name of the photo file and always include the plant name in the text of the post…. otherwise it is impossible to search for the image.

A recent query  highlighted the lack of a photo of Calochortus seed . Here is one, lacking a scale but perhaps useful nonetheless Calochortus uniflorus seed and pod from a 2008 Bulb Log  from Ian Young (http://www.srgc.org.uk/bulblog/log2008/020708/log.html)  There is a magnified image of a seed, bottom right of the picture.

Calochortus uniflorus seeds
I am getting a very good crop of seeds on the Calochortus uniflorus that I showed some weeks back. This is especially rewarding in what is one of the worst years we have had for seeds on the bulbs in both the garden and under glass. It is interesting to note that they are not the flat lily like seed found on most of the Calochortus I have grown but are more like a small Erythronium seed to look at.


 Worth remembering too, is that the Pacific Bulb Society pages often have seed photos included as this one (http://www.pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/CalochortusSpeciesSix)which had pix from David Pilling of Calochortus  superbus

From Rick Rodich , elsewhere in the Forum, on 3rd November

Rick wrote : I only have one clone of Lilium papilliferum, and it was through the generosity of a forum member here that I obtained pollen in hopes of producing seed.

Success!  They are small seed, but look very good.  They germinate IE according to Ed McRae and Darm Crook. Darm has them germinating in 8-15 days, and recommends that once germinated, quite dry conditions are required or the seedlings will be lost.

It is worth mentioning that the previous photo is backlit to reveal the embryos inside the seeds.  The method is called candling.

Plantago patagonica. This seed was initially vexing to me: the first time I processed the seed, every seed seemed to have broken in half!  But these seeds have a round side and a concave side (not just flat).  And the concave side actually looks like it could be the inside of the seed! (But it is not.)

Plantago patagonica: seeds and open capsules, and with single flower spike.

This bizarre thing (which exactly matches the botanical description) is a seed of Walleria gracilis. A Namibian/South African member of the Tecophilaceae which is tuberous and has flowers rather reminiscent of potato flowers on prickly climbing/scrambling stems. An old thread on the forum recounts my difficulties in persuading this to break it's summer dormancy but I'm armed with new information this time!

No grid but the divisions on the ruler are 1mm. There are little tufts of black hairs all over the spherical part of the seed and on the tips of the appendages.

These appear to be taken from the pod well before what I would call fully ripe which is in my experience (I only have experience of seed in I. winogradowii. No others have set seed for me), a light brownish or milky coffee colour and the seeds have a slightly rough coat which occurs as the coat shrinks very slightly as the seed dries.

These pictures are very lovely and would make a nice necklace! ;D

Re Alan's seeds above, I have to assume then, that for many if not all irises and especially the rarer and more difficult species, it would be ideal to source seed that is harvested before full ripeness and probably sown immediately. If only we could! Most such seeds except from our own gardens, are well dried and maybe months old before we get them. We are fighting a long and possibly fruitless battle even as we order them.

QUOTE:

This lifesize guide and essential reference reveals the extraordinary beauty, surprising diversity and importance of seeds to an extent never seen before.

True time capsules of life, seeds are significant items of hope and promise. They are the most complex organs plants ever produce, and come in an enormously diverse range of shapes, sizes, and colours; from the impressive coco de mer nut to the microscopic seeds of an orchid, to the extraordinary cobalt blue of the traveller’s palm pit.

Seeds are often overshadowed by the adult plant’s size and show. Here, 600 seeds are spotlit, each given equal attention, each shown as glorious photographs, life size and in detail, alongside an engraving of the parent plant. Every profile includes a population distribution map, a table of essential information, and a commentary revealing notable characteristics, related species, and a diagnosis of the specimen’s importance in terms of taxonomy, rarity, dispersal method, and scientific significance. Arranged taxonomically, this essential reference reveals the variety and importance of seeds to an extent never seen before.

This is an important addition to our project, thanks to NARGS :
Images from  Alexandra Berkutenko's Seed Atlas



The Russian botanist, Dr. Alexandra Berkutenko, just before her untimely death in 2014,  completed the very useful and colorful “Atlas of the Plant Seeds of the North Asia” [their translation of the Russian title].  It was published in 2016.
[attachimg=1]

The passing of Dr. Alexandra Naumovna Berkutenko in September 2014 represented a loss for many botanists, horticulturists, and gardeners around the world. Although she lived and worked in the far outpost city of Magadan, in Far Eastern Siberia, as Professor at the Institute of Biological Problems of the North, Far-Eastern Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences, Alexandra’s reach extended to Europe, the United Kingdom, North America... and probably to the southern hemisphere, as well. Her annual seed list, containing wild-collected seeds from different areas of Siberia, was well subscribed, even into 2014.

Her family (husband, daughter, and son - all botanists) have given NARGS permission to post the photos of the seeds (the text is in Russian) on the NARGS website.  They all agreed that it would be "nice if horticulture community enthusiasts will be able to see the results of mother’s work on NARGS website."

Now NARGS  has given SRGC permission to post the  photos also.
 
The  images of seeds from her book follow. There are 20 images per page, arranged alphabetically on each page . The occasional differences in spelling are due to transliteration from Cyrillic; there are also occasional differences in taxonomy (always a moving target).

The images may be enlarged to show the names more  clearly. It is intended to add the list of names by degree!

What amazing things are seeds! Such variety, in size, shape, colour. I actually recognize a few, such as Clematis fusca, and feel very pleased with myself. Around the world we, gardeners, have had incredible access to hundreds of thousands of different species through their seeds and it is sad that now, so many countries are restricting this access, whether to preserve their own biodiversity, or for political reasons or, I suspect in some cases, from sheer bloodimindedness.

This Russian collection is utterly fascinating and I am grateful for the opportunity to see it, and wonder again at the infinite variation within that most exciting and rewarding activity, the collection, sowing and growing from SEEDS! My thanks to the Russian family who have made their wife's and mother's work
available to NARGS and to NARGS itself for passing along this amazing archive.
