Freesia is a genus of herbaceous perennial flowering crops in the family Iridaceae, first referred to as a genus in 1866 by Chr. Fr. Echlon (1795-1868) and known as after German botanist and doctor Friedrich Freese (1794-1878). It is native to the eastern side of southern Africa, from Kenya south to South Africa, most varieties being within Cape Provinces. Types of the former genus Anomatheca are actually contained in Freesia. The vegetation often called "freesias", with fragrant funnel-shaped plants, are cultivated hybrids of a number of Freesia types. Some other species are also produced as ornamental plant life.
These are herbaceous plant life which grow from a conical corm 1-2.5 cm diameter, which sends up a tuft of small leaves 10-30 cm long, and a sparsely branched stem 10-40 cm high bearing a few leaves and a loose one-sided spike of flowers with six tepals. Many varieties have fragrant narrowly funnel-shaped blossoms, although those previously put in the genus Anomatheca, such as F. laxa, have flat flowers. Freesias are being used as food crops by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Large Yellowish Underwing.
CULTIVATION AND USES
The plant life 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 species and the green- and yellow-flowered kinds of F. corymbosa. Modern tetraploid cultivars have flowers ranging from white to yellowish, pink, red and blue-mauve. They are mostly cultivated appropriately in the Netherlands by about 80 growers.[3] Freesias can be conveniently increased from seed. Because of their specific and pleasing scent, they are generally used in hand creams, shampoos, candles, etc.[citation needed], however, the blooms are mainly utilized in wedding bouquets. They could be planted in the fall season in USDA Hardiness Areas 9-10 (i.e. where the temperature will not land below about -7 ?C (20 ?F)), and in the spring and coil in Areas 4-8.
Freesia laxa (formerly called Lapeirousia laxa or Anomatheca cruenta) is one of the other types of the genus which is often cultivated. Smaller than the scented freesia cultivars, they have flat rather than cup-shaped bouquets. Extensive 'forcing' of the bulb occurs in Half Moon Bay in California where several growers chill the lights in proprietary solutions to satisfy chilly dormancy which results in creation of buds within a predicted range of weeks - often 5 weeks at 55 ?F (13 ?C).
Herbaceous crops (in botanical use frequently simply natural remedies) are vegetation which may have no continual woody stem above floor. Herbaceous crops may be annuals, biennials or perennials. Annual herbaceous plants pass away completely at the end of the growing season or when they have flowered and fruited, plus they then expand again from seed. Herbaceous perennial and biennial plants may have stems that die at the end of the growing season, but elements of the plant endure under or near the bottom from season to season (for biennials, before next growing season, when they flower and expire). New development develops from living cells remaining on or under the bottom, including origins, a caudex (a thickened portion of the stem at ground level) or various types of underground stems, such as light bulbs, corms, stolons, rhizomes and tubers. Examples of herbaceous biennials include carrot, parsnip and common ragwort; herbaceous perennials include potato, peony, hosta, mint, most ferns and most grasses. In comparison, non-herbaceous perennial plant life are woody plant life that have stems above floor that stay alive during the dormant season and expand shoots the next season from the above-ground parts - these include trees, shrubs and vines.
