7NA 890912024RM-TK-004Prunus sp.Florida, United StatesNA2024COLLECTED09/05/2024Blackwater River Wildlife Management Area: on the south side of Boundary Line Road about 0.32 kilometers west of Deaton Bridge Road along an area edged by a barbed wire fence.30.68579800, -86.8796430045Plants are growing from part-sun to full sun. Plants are growing in an area that is frequently burned with a lot of [Prunus sp. (orig. listed as Prunus alabamensis)] scattered throughout. This habitat is a longleaf pine-wiregrass community with scattered turkey (Quercus laevis) and blackjack oaks (Quercus incana). There is a slight slope downward. The line of [Prunus sp.] goes along a semi-ditch on the side of a dirt road. The plants probably get a bit more water than the plants out in the open forest. The [Prunus sp.] are most often without any other close woody companions. Slope: 0 percent. Aspect: North. Geology: The underlying geology of this area is probably of lower Pliocene age and characterized as the Citronelle Formation. The Citronelle Formation is widespread in the Gulf Coastal Plain. The type section for the Citronelle Formation, named by Matson (1916), is near Citronelle, Alabama. The Citronelle Formation grades laterally, through a broad facies transition, into the Miccosukee Formation of the eastern Florida panhandle. Coe (1979) investigated the Citronelle Formation in portions of the western Florida panhandle. The Citronelle Formation is a siliciclastic, deltaic deposit that is lithologically similar to, and time equivalent with, the Cypresshead Formation and, at least in part, the Long Key Formation (Cunningham et al., 1998) of the peninsula. In the western panhandle, some of the sediments mapped as Citronelle Formation may be reworked Citronelle. The lithologies are the same and there are few fossils present to document a possible younger age. The Citronelle Formation consists of gray to orange, often mottled, unconsolidated to poorly consolidated, very fine to very coarse, poorly sorted, clean to clayey sands. It contains significant amounts of clay, silt and gravel which may occur as beds and lenses and may vary considerably over short distances. Limonite nodules and limonite-cemented beds are common. Marine fossils are rare but fossil pollen, plant remains and occasional vertebrates are found. Much of the Citronelle Formation is highly permeable. It forms the Sand and Gravel Aquifer of the surficial aquifer system. (Source: USGS Florida Geologic Map Data). Soils: The soil of this area is characterized as Lakeland Series Sand, 0 to 5 percent slopes (21). The Lakeland Series consists of very deep, excessively drained, rapid to very rapidly permeable soils on uplands. They formed in thick beds of eolian or marine and/or fluvio-marine sands in the Southern Coastal Plain MLRA (133A), the Carolina and Georgia Sandhills (MLRA 137), the Eastern Gulf Coast Flatwoods (MLRA 152A) and the Atlantic Coast Flatwoods (MLRA 153A).

Vegetation of this area is very much defined by small changes in elevation that go from wet to very dry. Ilex glabra remains abundant throughout, though. Slope: N/A. Aspect: N/A. The underlying geology of this area is the Cohansey Formation of middle Miocene origin and comprised of sand, white to yellow with local gravel and clay. It is sometimes locally stained red or orange brown by iron oxides and (or) cemented into large blocks of ironstone. Unweathered clay is typically dark gray, but commonly weathers white where it is interbedded with thin beds of ironstone. Sand is typically medium grained and moderately sorted although it ranges from fine to very coarse grained and from poorly to well sorted. Sand consists of quartz and siliceous rock fragments. Some beds are locally micaceous. Maximum thickness in the map area is about 60 meters; however, thickness is difficult to determine because of the irregular basal contact and extensive post-depositional erosion. (Source: USGS New Jersey Geologic Map Data). The primary soil type in the area of this collection is classified as Mullica Series sandy loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes. These soils are typically coarse-loamy, siliceous, semiactive, and mesic typic humaquepts that are strongly to extremely acidic throughout the profile. The typical solum thickness ranges from 50-150+ cm. These soils are generally considered to be poorly drained. (Source: NRCS Web Soil Survey).Wild material2169930NA 88593

Very steep, moist, north-facing slope. Wild materialBebb's willow, Salix bebbiana, is a tight, clump forming, multi-stemmed shrub that can reach up to 25' in height that forms a rather distinct, mounded growth habit. Native to North America, the native range covers mostly Canada, but extending south into the northeastern US and also the Rocky Mountains range stretching as far south as New Mexico and Arizona (Little, E. L. Jr. 1977). In Iowa, this species seems to only be known from northeastern Iowa. Salix bebbiana can be found in a variety of habitats from pond margins/swamps to even moderately well-drained open fields. The female capsules are long (5-9 mm) with a very slender beak held on the longest stalk of any N. American Salix. This accession represents genetics from northeastern Iowa at the southern edge of its range in northeastern N. America. Specimens sampled were estimated at 30' in height. Some of the oldest, largest specimens sampled measuring approximately 8" DBH were showing signs of decline. Immature leaves are reddish or yellow green and rather rugose. 2167645Ames 36248

Slope: N/A. Aspect: N/A. Soils: The underlying geology of this area is of Middle Miocene, Serravallian origin and characterized as an Cohansey Formation. It is comprised of sand, white to yellow with local gravel and clay. Locally stained red or orange brown by iron oxides and (or) cemented into large blocks of ironstone. Unweathered clay is typically dark gray, but commonly weathers white where interbedded with thin beds of ironstone. Unit is a complex of interfingering marine and nonmarine facies. Sand is typically medium grained and moderately sorted although it ranges from fine to very coarse grained and from poorly to well sorted. Sand consists of quartz and siliceous rock fragments. Some beds are locally micaceous. In general, the sand is crossbedded, although the style of crossbedding varies significantly with the paleoenvironment. Trough crossbedding predominates, especially in the nonmarine channel fill deposits, and the scale of the crossbeds varies from small to large. Maximum thickness in the map area is about 60 m; however, thickness is difficult to determine because of the irregular basal contact and extensive post-depositional erosion. There is as much as 18 m of relief along the basal contact. The basal contact is sharp, undulatory, and directly overlain by a thin gravel bed. The Cohansey Formation unconformably overlies the Kirkwood Formation and is found in channels cut down into the Kirkwood. Where the Kirkwood consists of sandy, light-colored sediments, the basal contact of the Cohansey is drawn below crossbedded sediments. Where the Kirkwood consists of dark-colored silty beds, the basal contact is drawn between light-colored Cohansey sediments and the underlying dark-colored sediments. The Cohansey was markedly thinned because of erosion prior to deposition of overlying units in the western and southern parts of the southern sheet. The unit has been extensively eroded and stripped from large areas of the New Jersey Coastal Plain, particularly in the central sheet where outliers are common. In spite of its widespread nature, the Cohansey is poorly exposed because of its loose sandy composition, which causes it to erode easily. (Source: USGS New Jersey Geologic Map Data.)

This location was accessed from the east where Miller Avenue meets the fire road, approximately 2 kilometers away. There is no vehicular access to the collecting area. Becoming locally uncommon. This local population is likely to be extirpated in the next 20-30 years. This collector has hiked through this area for more than 35 years and seen dramatic changes in the population. When first observed, Kalmia latifolia was a dominant understory shrub on south- to west-facing slopes beneath a mature forest canopy. Over the years, at least one forest fire has significantly reduced the population, along with a continuing increase in deer populations, resulting in catastrophic browse damage. The absence of a mature forest canopy and periods of drought have almost certainly also resulted in decline of this population. While collecting seed from scattered mature plants well above deer browse levels, this collector also noted that there was virtually no recruitment taking place.39.32811200, -77.72242400287Plants are growing in part-shade to shade of a deciduous upland, very rocky, and dry forest community.

Historically and presently known for its extreme value as bow-wood and fence posts, Osage-orange represents one of the most widely planted tree species in the lower 48 US states as a living fence starting in the mid-1800's, in the late 1900's as a landscape tree for difficult sites, and most recently its chemical properties. Detailed history of Osage-orange and it's economic uses are well documented (Smith and Perino, 1981 and J. T. Winberry 1979). Osage wood is highly-prized for its use as fence posts (both living and non-living) and durable wood for wood working. Osage is an extremely drought and heat tolerant tree and is recommended for use in USDA cold-hardiness zones 5b or warmer. Although the species is commonly known for its stout thorns and large, globular fruits, the species is dioecious and the degree of thorns on individual genotypes can be extremely variable. This accession represents genetics collected from a naturalized population in central Iowa (Boone County - Harrison Township). Majority of specimens sampled averaged approximately 40-45’ in height with multiple (e.g. 1-5) trunks. The collection site represents a recognized Iowa Century Farm awarded in 1976 that was originally settled by Andrew Nelson and then purchased on 24 October 1874 for the amount of '9.00 per acre by Lester S. Carlson. According to Samuel Keith Carlson (grandson to Lester S. Carlson), in the 1930's-1940's there was a fence line plus a few additional specimens of significant size that were possibly planted by Lester S. Carlson in the 1870's or the previous owner during "hedge mania" in the 1850's. In the 1950's the original trees at the Carlson farm were removed, but the progeny have persisted throughout the woods and adjacent pasture areas and continue to spread. A corner fence post of Osage that was set in 1874 by Lester S. Carlson shortly after purchasing the property still remains (see image). Majority of the specimens in this population are nearly thornless or with relatively few thorns. Fruit sizes range between 70-90 mm in diameter with seed lengths ranging from 6.99 mm (min) to 11.68 mm (max) with the average length of 50 seeds at 9.36 mm. At time of collection (2 November 2022) approximately 20% of specimens were at peak, yellow fall color, while remaining specimens were still green/greenish-yellow. 2141741Ames 36028

Deciduous forest. Wild materialThe native range of Populus grandidentata is concentrated througout the northeastern United States with disjunct populations in far south as Kentucky and as far west as central Iowa (Little, E. L. Jr. 1971). Bigtooth aspens are known to be fast-growing trees, making for a quick source of shade in the landscape. As a pioneer species in nature, P. grandidentata is adaptable to a wide range of environments but is considered to be slightly less adaptable than quaking aspen. However, bigtooth aspen is more resistant to canker diseases than quaking aspen (Laidly 1990), potentially making it slightly longer-lived. Bark on big-tooth aspens is generally greyish to greyish-yellow or olive-green compared to quaking aspens where bark is typically white to greyish-white. Leaves and leaf serrations are larger, and the degree of suckering is lower in big-tooth aspens. Both species are well known for their leaves to quake or tremble as the lengthy petioles allow leaves to swivel in the slightest amount of wind. Populus use is well-documented throughout the world and encompasses a wide range of products including energy feedstock, wood chips for pulping fibers, veneer logs, agro-forestry, and phyto-remediation as well as several other environmental applications. Interspecific hybrids of P. grandidentata and P. canescens have superior performance in yield; Hypoxylon canker resistance; and rooting ability compared to pure, N. American aspen genetics. This accession represents genetics acquired from the Des Moines River Valley of central Iowa and considered a disjunct population. P. grandidentata is infrequent to somewhat common throughout parts of the Des Moines River Valley, but very localized. The next closest, native population would be found in Hardin County (Iowa) approximately 50 miles to the northeast near Eldora. In central Iowa, this accession has been noted to have excellent, yellow fall color that typically peaks in mid-October (e.g. 21 October 2015). Fruits usually mature in early May (e.g. 3 May 2017) coinciding with flower initiation on local genotypes of Prunus virginiana. Specimens sampled in nature measuring approximately 60' in height and 16-22" dbh. Due to this accession originating from the western and southern edge of the species native range, it is suspected that this accession would have excellent heat and drought tolerance compared to genetics from areas in the northeastern U.S. 1949856Ames 33965

Gentle slopes and wetlandsUncertain improvement statusThe native range for Osage-orange is reported from eastern Texas, southeastern Oklahoma, southwestern Arkansas, and the northwestern corner of Louisiana (Little, 1971). Historically and presently known for its extreme value as bow-wood and fence posts, Osage-orange represents one of the most widely planted tree species in the lower 48 US states as a living fence starting in the mid-1800's, in the late 1900's as a landscape tree for difficult sites, and most recently its chemical properties. Detailed history of Osage-orange and it's economic uses are well documented (Smith and Perino, 1981 and J. T. Winberry 1979). Osage wood is highly-prized for its use as fence posts (both living and non-living) and durable wood for wood working. Osage is an extremely drought and heat tolerant tree and is recommended for use in USDA cold-hardiness zones 5b or warmer. Although the species is commonly known for its stout thorns and large, globular fruits, the species is dioecious and the degree of thorns on individual genotypes can be extremely variable. This accession represents germplasm from a naturalizing, reproductive population collected in central Iowa (Polk County). Majority of specimens averaged approximately 40-50’ in height with multiple (e.g. 4-5) trunks. Specimens 03-1 and 03-2 were upright in form with tighter branch angles, while 03-10 was the widest spreading of all trees.

Slopes averaging 60 degrees. Northern and eastern aspects. Localized to bluffs above Iowa River.Wild materialThe native range of Pinus strobus is concentrated in the northeastern United States extending south into the northern edge of Georgia and west to central Minnesota. In Iowa, scattered native populations exist in a few northeastern counties as well as small disjunct populations in central and southeastern counties (Little, 1971). This accession includes genetics from legacy mother trees located in Fallen Rock State Preserve and nearby private property to the south. This area is near Pine Lake State Park, which in 2009 was devastated by a severe hailstorm of "supersized softballs" resulting in significant cambial damage to many species of trees. Damage to the majority of P. strobus specimens throughout the area was so severe that losses occurred immediately. Additional losses in subsequent years continued to occur likely due to additional stress by drought and destruction by bark beetles. The loss of approximately 75% of the P. strobus specimens at Pine Lake State Park was attributed to the 2009 hailstorm prompted efforts to preserve genetics of the white pines here. In 2014, specimens in parts of Pine Lake State Park and also one specimen at Fallen Rock State Preserve were sampled (Carstens, J.) as seeds from specimens ranging in size from 9.25 inches to 31.75 inches d.b.h. However, in 2021, it was determined (Place, A. pers. comm. 24 February 2021 and Carstens, J. & Sherwood, A., pers. observations 1 March 2021) that likely most if not all of the specimens in Pine Lake State Park are planted specimens of unknown origin because P. strobus specimens located at the far east end of Lower Lake (south side) were noted (Carstens and Sherwood, pers. observations 1 March 2021) growing with uncharacteristic associated taxa including Acer saccharinum and Gymnocladus dioicus. Two documents that support these observations includes: 1. Letter signed by Louis H. Pammel (March 25, 1925) to G.B. McDonald of the Iowa State University Forestry Department asking for 200 white pine to be planted at Pine Lake. 2. "Trees to Be Set Out by CCC Workers" in the Eldora Herald (May 9, 1935) referencing the CCC (Civilian Conservation Corps) to plant “1,000 white pines at Pine Lake State Park". Therefore, if obtained, increment borer measurements of specimens that are 94 years of age at present (2014) or older would suggest those as being true, native remnants. Documents that supports the position of remnant specimens at Fallen Rock State Preserve includes: 1. "Picturesque Drives About Eldora", in the Eldora Herald (December 8, 1910) by Clara Estabrook stating "Miss Stoddard of the Iowa Falls school says these (only 11 trees left) are the only native pines (those restricted to the sandstone cliffs) found in Hardin County" and suggested a movement to have them preserved. 2. Forest Flora of Hardin County (1899) by L. H. Pammel stating that the Iowa valley serves as the western limits for white pine and also refers to David D. Owen's geological report from 1839 indicating the occurrences of white pines on the summits of the hills along the Iowa River. In addition, a photo of white pines growing at Steamboat Rock taken by L. H. Pammel was featured on the front page of the 1919 report of the State Board of Conservation titled "Iowa Parks: Conservation of Iowa Historic, Scenic and Scientific Areas." Due to the significant presence of planted specimens of unknown origin in Pine Lake State Park and surrounding private properties, samples collected in 2014 as seeds may likely contain genetics (pollen donors) from specimens of unknown origin. This resulted in the resampling of specimens in 2021 (USFS - IAHA#'s) and 2023 as dormant scions that are from locations known to be untouched by the CCC and thus represent true, remnant specimens. To date (2021), there are only eight legacy specimens left in this population (four specimens at Fallen Rock State Preserve and four specimens at the nearby private property). The largest specimen of P. strobus (Ames 32758) is #IAHA-08 located at (42.395489, -93.091652) measuring (13 May 2018) 35.65" DBH with a height of 78.33' and a spread of 26' totalling 197 points (Rouw, M., personal communication, 8 February 2023). This germplasm represents the southwestern most population of native P. strobus in Iowa and one of the western most populations in North America. Germplasm likely is adapted to Midwestern climatic extremes and potentially very drought tolerant in comparison to other provenances from the eastern or northeastern U.S. 1921270Ames 32758
