Freesia is a genus of herbaceous perennial flowering plant life in the family Iridaceae, first described as a genus in 1866 by Chr. Fr. Echlon (1795-1868) and named after German botanist and doctor Friedrich Freese (1794-1878). It really is indigenous to the eastern aspect of southern Africa, from Kenya south to South Africa, most species being within Cape Provinces. Species of the former genus Anomatheca are actually included in Freesia. The plant life often called "freesias", with fragrant funnel-shaped flowers, are cultivated hybrids of a number of Freesia species. Some other species are also cultivated as ornamental plant life.
They can be herbaceous plant life which grow from a conical corm 1-2.5 cm size, which delivers up a tuft of slim leaves 10-30 cm long, and a sparsely branched stem 10-40 cm large bearing a few leaves and a loose one-sided spike of bouquets with six tepals. Many types have fragrant narrowly funnel-shaped blooms, although those formerly placed in the genus Anomatheca, such as F. laxa, have chiseled flowers. Freesias are used as food vegetation by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Large Yellow Underwing.
CULTIVATION AND USES
The crops usually called "freesias" are derived from crosses made in the 19th century between F. refracta and F. leichtlinii. Numerous cultivars have been bred from these varieties and the red- and yellow-flowered kinds of F. corymbosa. Modern tetraploid cultivars have flowers ranging from white to yellowish, green, red and blue-mauve. They may be mostly cultivated appropriately in the Netherlands by about 80 growers.[3] Freesias can be easily increased from seed. Because of the specific and satisfying scent, they are generally used in palm products, shampoos, candles, etc.[citation needed], however, the blooms are mainly used in wedding bouquets. They could be planted in the fall in USDA Hardiness Zones 9-10 (i.e. where the temperature does not show up below about -7 ?C (20 ?F)), and in the spring in Areas 4-8.
Freesia laxa (previously called Lapeirousia laxa or Anomatheca cruenta) is one of the other varieties of the genus which is often cultivated. Smaller than the scented freesia cultivars, it offers flat rather than cup-shaped blooms. Extensive 'forcing' of this bulb occurs in Half Moon Bay in California where several growers chill the light bulbs in proprietary solutions to satisfy chilly dormancy which results in formation of buds in just a predicted number of weeks - often 5 weeks at 55 ?F (13 ?C).
Herbaceous crops (in botanical use frequently simply herbal selections) are plant life which may have no continual woody stem above ground. Herbaceous vegetation may be annuals, biennials or perennials. Total annual herbaceous plants perish completely at the end of the growing season or when they have got flowered and fruited, plus they then grow again from seed. Herbaceous perennial and biennial crops may have stems that die at the end of the growing season, but elements of the plant endure under or close to the ground from season to season (for biennials, before next growing season, when they rose and perish). New progress develops from living tissue left over on or under the bottom, including roots, a caudex (a thickened portion of the stem at walk out) or numerous kinds of underground stems, such as lights, corms, stolons, rhizomes and tubers. Examples of herbaceous biennials include carrot, parsnip and common ragwort; herbaceous perennials include potato, peony, hosta, mint, most ferns & most grasses. In comparison, non-herbaceous perennial vegetation are woody plants which have stems above ground that stay alive through the dormant season and expand shoots the next yr from the above-ground parts - these include trees, shrubs and vines.
