Abstract

The new growth of manzanita (Arctostaphylos densiflora M.S. Baker and other Arctostaphylos spp.) grown in a nursery in a mix of 2 fir bark : 1 sand (v/v) in plastic containers remained very small and showed some necrosis. Tissue analysis indicated a possible copper deficiency. The addition of 8 mg of copper as copper sulfate per 15 cm pot produced normal growth. The application of boron or calcium was not effective in controlling the problem.

Abstract

Rooted cuttings of Anthemis nobilis, Arctostaphylos uva-ursi; Veronica officinalis and Houttuynia cordata were grown in the greenhouse and in nutrient solutions differing only in pH. The levels of pH were adjusted to 3 to 9 for A. nobilis and A. uva-ursi, to pH 4 to 9 for V. officinalis and to pH 4 to 6 for H. cordata. A. nobilis grew well at pH 4 to 7 but best growth was near pH 5. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi made best growth at pH 4 but not significantly better than at pH 5 to 7. V. officinalis grew well over a wide pH range (4 to 7 inclusive) and plants died gradually at pH 9. For the H. cordata trial a limited number of plants was available and at the imposed pH levels (4, 5 and 6) all plants grew uniformly and well.
