negative correlation with yield and spring canopy diameter readings for all the cultivars (correlation data not shown). For ‘Albion’, ‘Camarosa’, and ‘Strawberry Festival’, a lower canopy size did not necessarily result in a lower yield in a California
objective of the present work was to evaluate the effect of red (600 to 700 nm) light specifically directed at the crown of transplants on the fall flowering of short-day ‘Strawberry Festival’ strawberry. Materials and Methods On 1 July 2007, runner
The Wiley-Boone Aviary is a collection of domestic/exotic birds established at the Morgan Poultry Center at Clemson University in the mid-1970s. The area receives 3000 visitors per year, mostly school children. To make the site more aesthetically pleasing and conducive to educational programs, a new design was necessary. The Aviary was selected for redesign as an independent project in Fall 1995. Objectives of the design were: 1) creating an area conducive to housing, attracting, and viewing birds; 2) educating visitors through interactive display areas; 3) creating a bird garden that will attract and educate the public while providing natural food sources, cover, and nesting sites. Plants such as Pyracantha coccinea, Amelanchier arborea, and Juniperus virginiana provide winter berries production and protection from predators. Final plans feature: 1) individual aviary structures for exotic, game, and domestic birds; 2) open habitats for mallards and song birds; and 3) an amphitheater for educational purposes. Project steps include research, site analysis, preliminary design, and final master plan. As part of fund-raising activities, the master plan was displayed at the spring festival of the South Carolina Botanical Garden. This, combined with publications, will stimulate community awareness and participation as we approach the implementation phase of the project in Spring 1997.

There is a need for a strawberry ( Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) cultivar to complement ‘Strawberry Festival’ ( Chandler et al., 2000 ) yields, currently the primary cultivar in Florida and an important cultivar in other winter and early spring
Yields of bare-rooted ‘Festival’ strawberry plants in southeastern Queensland, Australia, were best with a planting in mid-March, with lower yields with earlier or later plantings ( Menzel and Smith, 2011 ). In contrast, large plants with crown
