Iris spp., Louisiana hybrids
Date created ms
1976, 1989
Abstract
"Hybrids between different species of Iris may be formed under appropriate natural conditions. In parts of southern Louisiana, red iris and some of the blue flowering species, I. brevicaulis and I. giganticaerulea, have crossed with one another in various combinations. So diverse was the array of color variations from these natural crosses in southern Louisiana that early in this century [20th Century], J.K. Small, preeminent specialist on the southeastern flora, and E.J. Alexander, a collaborator, recognized more than eighty species of Iris from this state alone. Later investigators subsequently demonstrated that this variation was due to interspecific hybridization rather than specific diversity. Contemporary specialists are continuing to unravel the details and significance of such hybridizations by doing controlled ecological experiments and by using comparative studies of nucleic acids. Louisiana iris hybrids are popular garden ornamentals, and new cultivated varieties are continually being developed by iris enthusiasts."--Lowell Urbatsch, in the Flora of Louisiana (Baton Rouge, LSU Press, 1991), p. 99

Amsonia ludoviciana Vail
Date created ms
1976, 1989
Abstract
"This attractive member of the mostly tropical dogbane family has been reported in Louisiana and Mississippi and was thought for a time to be extinct in the wild. Recent interest in rare plants has shown that the Louisianan blue-star still grows in a few places in the central part of Louisiana. A population of Amsonia discovered in Georgia about a year ago may indeed be this species. The larger flowers and the downy, soft undersides of the leaves distinguish this species from the more common Amsonia tabernaemontana. The Louisiana blue-star reminds us of how much there is to be learned about many of our native species." -- Lowell Urbatsch, in The Flora of Louisiana (Baton Rouge: LSU Press, 1991), p.16
Louisiana Bear Grass

Yucca louisianensis Trel.
Date created ms
1976, 1989
Abstract
"Louisiana bear grass, a member of the lily family, occurs in dry, sandy soils in central and northwestern Louisiana and adjacent parts of Arkansas and Texas. The stout stems of this plant may grow to eighteen inches tall and support a rounded cluster of leaves whose white-bordered margins are somewhat shredded into filaments. The flowers are about one inch long and are composed of six similar, petal-like members, six stamens, and a three-parted pistil. Various species of Yucca have in the past been a valuable resource to Native Americans and early settlers. The flower buds, flowers, young inflorescences, and fruits of some species are edible. Their leaves have served as a source of fiber and their roots as a source of soaplike substances. Yucca contains about thirty species, found mostly in the arid regions of North America, and some are grown as ornamentals. Variation among and between species is not well studied, making the application of the scientific names somewhat difficult. The yuccas are similar to agaves, and the two are sometimes placed together in the same plant family. Yuccas differ, however, in having a superior ovary."--Lowell Urbatsch, in the Flora of Louisiana (Baton Rouge, LSU Press, 1991), p. 120
