Hello Everybody...i like alpines plants and i am french !

[Botanica]

What a good proposition PeterT , it's seem to be the good species

I have seen a Thalictrum minus        (not minor it's seem to be)  >>  http://ichn.iec.cat/bages/roureda/Imatges%20grans/cThalictrum%20minus.htm

Nobody in other Forum can find the good name ....Congratulation ..i know that now !

I don't have flower in my photo and i could see that in internet (www)..

I have Thalictrum aquilegifolium  in culture !

So ...anyone can indicate to me The Good book for Alpines Plants identifications ?

The flora helvetica ? What do you think about this book ? ...About 90 euros !


 
A good picture of protected plant ..Lys martagon (Lilium martagon)

[Botanica]

Hello everybody,


No comment or reaction for The "good choice" of of book about the Alpines plants and my proposition ?

I'm a little surprised that nobody give me his opinion on the subject ... with the quantity of expert in this subject in this Forum 

I dont search a exhaustive book but a good compromise.

Thank's by advance for you experience return !

And have a good day 

[Maggi Young]

Botanica, I think it very much depends on which region you seek a book to help with  - for instance, here :
http://www.srgc.net/forum/index.php?topic=8567.msg231477#msg231477   you can read about a book to help with the flowers of the Dolomites. The Forum can be searched to find suggestions, for example, this thread  http://www.srgc.net/forum/index.php?topic=248.0  has thirty pages of ideas about books of interest.
That may be a starting point for you.

[Botanica]

Thank's Maggie

 I want to be able to recognized the Alpines Plants of Europe (in fact) ..the Flora Helvetica was proposed to me by a guy who i have meet in the Botanical Garden of  Chanousia (col du Petit-Saint-Bernard) this Summer.

I have make a new post with my photos of the discovering holiday around the Courchevel Region (at large).

Bien l'bonjour,

vivant en suisse, je parle français...j'ai également une pettite pepinière ou je multiplie des bulbes rares du monde entier :

http://pontuswallstenplants.smugmug.com/

dites moi si vous y trouver des plantes qui eventuellement vous intéressent.

j'ai également des graines en petites quantitées de certaines plantes, ainsi que quelques cypripediums si vous voulez faire des échanges de plantes.

les plantes vivaces alpines ne poussent pas bien ici dans le bassin lémanique, avec 35°c en été ils grillent ou se dessèchent trop rapidement, donc j'ai du abandonner malhereusement la culture de soldanelles, meconopsis, gentianes..etc...

salutations

Pontus Wallstén

PS : to the englism forum members : a little reply from me in french about my nursery and also teh fact that perennial alpines dont grow well with me due to the intense summer heat here, but "alpine" bulbs which are summer dormant do very well..
