Cold Hardy

The effects of timing of pruning in relation to cold hardiness of X Cupressocyparis leylandii (A. B. Jacks. and Dallim.) Dallim. and A. B. Jacks. `Haggerston Grey' and Lagerstroemia L. `Natchez' were evaluated on 6 test dates from August 1989 to March 1990. Pruning treatments decreased the cold hardiness of both taxa compared to unpruned controls on 5 test dates. Cold tolerance of `Haggerston Grey' decreased for 4 to 5 months following the August and October pruning compared to the unpruned controls. `Haggerston Grey's cold tolerance were reduced by 6C in February. October and December pruning of `Natchez' reduced cold hardiness by 4C in January. However, cold hardiness of January and February pruning treatments was similar to unpruned controls. In general, the data indicated that plants of `Haggerston Grey' pruned in October through February were less cold hardy than plants pruned in August. Ideally, `Natchez' crape myrtle should be pruned in late winter.

A map showing suitability for winter survival of ornamental trees and shrubs has been prepared for Canada. It is based on the estimated suitability indices (from 0 to 92) for 640 localities. It includes 10 zones with a spread of 10 units; each zone is subdivided into 2 sub-zones. In addition, probability curves indicate the chances of survival within zones and sub-zones of any plant for which the index of hardiness is known.

SL-255, a 5-page illustrated fact sheet by Amy L. Shober and Gary L. Leibee, describes this unexplained condition affecting the Ruby cultivar of this popular woody ornamental plant (also called Chinese fringebush or Chinese witch hazel) in central Florida. It presents the results of two studies conducted to identify possible causes and develop management methods. It includes suggested alternative cultivars and treatment recommendations for existing plantings. Published by the UF Department of Soil and Water Sciences, October 2007.

For nearly 30 years, the Univ. of Maine has been conducting woody ornamental plant performance evaluations. While there are a number of focus collections under evaluation, the Rhododendron collection is one of the central features of the program. This report offers performance data for more than 100 specimens grown at the Lyle E. Littletield Ornamentals Trial Garden on the campus of the Univ. of Maine. Winter survival, folk disease rating, fall foliage color and effectiveness, and flowering dates are included.

A method has been developed to establish indices of hardiness of ornamental trees and shrubs. Hardiness data were obtained from 108 stations across Canada and for 174 species and cultivars. Observers had to note whether each listed species was hardy, required protection to survive, or was not hardy. For estimation of the indices, stations were classified in three equal groups of 36 stations each, in order of decreasing suitability for winter survival. Two different procedures which gave nearly equal values were developed to establish the suitability of stations: one based on the most tender species surviving at stations, and the other on the mean minimum temperature of the coldest month. The indices of hardiness of each species were then obtained by averaging the ratios of the number of "hardy" reports to the total number of reports within each group of stations. Eighty-five percent of these indices were in line with experience. Inconsistencies were mostly due to inaccuracies in some of the reports on certain species.
