Breeder’s Hall - 15 - Liptai István, Tokaj HUN

 

Nurseryman, seeking conifers for drought areas. 30 years ago he planted a Cedrus libani forest in Tokaj of about 150 trees. They just start to bring seeds.

                                                           Liptai István collected seeds above the Lake Van in eastern Turkey on the slope of the Mount Nemrud in an area of one square kilometer (250 acres). The forest there lives in incredible circumstances with z4-5 frosts, big snow in winter, dry summers in a vaste rocky area mostly without any soil. The collected population was planted at an age of 3-4 years old in Tokaj, HUN with cca. 150 cedars, as a little forest far of his area. The Liptai Collection is on a wild south-eastern slope along the river Bodrog, where the cedars near to the river has grown a trunk of 40 centimeter (16 inch) in 16 years, 50 meters higher usually 25-30 cm (10-12 inch), and bringing quite good seeds yet. About 10 % ot the forest brings never powdering male cones, just female cones, a little more brings only male cones. Most of them seems to be usual with both kind of cones, as usual as we learned before. Cedrus libaniNemrut Dagi’ seems to be an imported genetic wonder, and this unique little forest will be the fathers and mothers of the z4 cedars in the frosty boreal regions of the world. Could have a nice future in reforesting semideserts or even boreal taigas. Grows to unexpected measures in milder climate, needs unusual very much place. (20 meters in diameter!) Majestic soliters to great parks, but no more than 2 or 3. Ideal understock for other cedars planted in less than z6. A gift of Gods, his name comes from the ancient King Nemrud, the famous scythian ruler. Royal names to royal cedars.

                                                           Liptai István a Van tó környékén a Nimród-hegy közelében egy km2 területen gyűjtött magot. Az erdő hihetetlen körülmények közt él, télen -30 C, nyáron több hónapos aszály, és a sziklás talaj alig kínál valamit. A felgyűjtött magoncok 3-4 éves korukban kerültek kiültetésre Tokajban, kb. 150 növény, melyek egy kis erdőt alkotnak. A Liptai Gyűjtemény a Bodrog partjáról szalad fel meredeken. A folyóparti részen az árvizek ellenére 40 cm körüli törzsátmérőket mutat, a meredek oldalon 25-30 cm 16 év alatt, miközben már teremnek a fák. A fák egy része csak tobozt nevel, míg más részük porzósnak tűnik, túlnyomó többségük azonban a szokásos rend szerint éli életét. A Nimród-hegyi libanoni cédrus behozott genetikai csodának tűnik, és szokatlan tulajdonságai révén könnyen későbbi cédrusnemzedékek ősapjai és ősanyjai lehetnek úgy a száraz, mint a fagyos boreális területeken. Kedvezőbb körülmények közé kerülve eddig nem feltételezett méreteket érhet el, akár 20 m átmérővel. Nagy parkok fenséges szolitere lehet nyílt helyeken. Z4-re mutató fagytűrése miatt javíthatja a nála érzékenyebb cédrusfajták télállóságát a Z6-nál szigorúbb helyeken. A Nemrut Dagi az istenek ajándéka, nevét Nimród hegyéről kapta. Isteni nevet az isteni libanoni cédrusnak.

                                                           Liptai István klónja. Erősen felfelé törő sudara, vízszintesen messze kinyúló oldalvezérei miatt habitusa inkább egy cédrusé, függönyszerűen csüngő másod-harmadrendű hajtásaival viszont a Xanthocypari nootkatensisPendula’-ra  emlékeztet, de mindeközben ezüstös-kék színben pompázik.

                                                           A Kunmingi Botanikus Kerttől kapott magból Liptai István nevelte Tokajban. Mélykék, de viaszosan hamvas, nagyon finom, ecsetszerű, „páfrányos” hajtásai adják könnyed, légies megjelenését. Némileg, az enyhén ereszkedő ágai miatt a C. funebrisre emlékeztet. Tobozai 2 centisek, kerekek, fényesek. Nagyon szárazságtűrő és télálló.
