awesome video!

Nice garden, my friend. i love it

I thought this video was about flower plants, but , where can i buy those trees you mentioned?

Thx for the info. On FANN-I see no native nurseries west of Tallahassee. 😢

Wold chicken wire keep iguanas out?

Should make all these plant stores only sell native plants.

Papacito Antonio… hehe. 😜

This is a profound message by a great and passionate person. I’m a Rutgers Master Gardener and we have an educational butterfly garden . We look to Rutgers and Xerces Society for information and follow Dr. Tallamy! Pesticides and the problems caused by night lighting and climate change and burning fossil fuels.😮😮😮

Most are coming from Palm Beach County nurseries. Look on the FANN website for individual nurseries and their stock.

Where are you getting these natives!!!

Balsam pear is awful. It’s taken over my back yard and kills everything it touches.

Thank you for making this video

A recent find for me was Joe wood. Jacquinia keyensis. One of my favorites.

Really enjoyed this video thank you 🦋🦋🐛🦋🐛🐛

Florida is a big state. What thrives in w Palm will not necessarily survive a hard freeze in Gainesville. It would be helpful if you mentioned freeze tolerance. Otherwise a helpful video.

Great video! Thanks for sharing.

I am going to try it thanks

She is very knowledgeable and truly dedicated. So lucky to have people like her.

Thank you

Invasive species take more than they give. There are many pollinators that have specialized themselves to plants native to their area. Pollinators feed birds in their caterpillar form, which in turn feed many other species that prey on birds and their eggs. I see some comments insinuating that invasive plants aren’t so bad. I would love for these people to walk in a forest that’s purely invasive and then one that purely native, the silence may help them understand.

Invasive could be another word for....we just haven't gotten there on our own yet. Birds spread invasive species all the time. They require no watering and still trap more carbon than a lawn that needs mowing 🎉🎉

Ive recently gotten into gardening, about 2 months ago and though I started with non-natives, it only took me only buying 7 plants before making the switch to mostly Native with some Florida Friendly. I now have planted 49 plants into my a garden, with over 15 different species. Including Coontie, Chapmans Senna, Swamp Milkweed, Passionvine, Porterweed. I dont have a large yard, but I have made a lot out of the room i have and I plan on increasing my garden space drastically, continuing to add in more host plants and shelter for all types of wildlife.

So were going to spread cancer causing chemicals all over to get rid of species that came after a completely arbitrary date of "European colonization". Seems absurd. None of these plants are going anywhere despite the millions spent on "management". Your lawn killed more natives than any invasive plant ever has. I have ear leaf acacia all over my farm. it's an invasive and a incredible biomass producer I am using to increase soil organic matter. Instead of buying cypress mulch at home depot, I use acacia bio mass. If you want to do something for the environment spraying round up into our waterways is the last thing we should be doing. Paying our government to poison our landscape....brilliant. Despite all my ear leaf acacia, and brazillian pepper, none of that crowds out natives, infact, if left undisturbed, you will see those invasives serve as a nursery and I often find young oaks and pines growing in mature stands of acacia and brazilian pepper. Let a few hurricanes pass and the soft wood of the acacia eventually succumbs and the oaks take their successional position.

Do deer eat frog fruit?

Wow!.. the speaker certainly knows her stuff.

Maybe it's meant to be the survival of the fittest, just like in human beings?

Awesome vid. Thanks for sharing this wealth of info on invasive plants.

I love clustervine. I planted a bunch.

he is not growing anything in his forest.

Giant milkweed is even worse than tropical. The butterflies carry the parasite on their wings and drops the spores on the plants when it flies over it. They say don’t plant tropical milkweed because it is a perennial and there’s no chance for it to die back and take the spores with it. Same with giant milkweed. One sick butterfly can infect the entire plant.

My native Florida wild flower garden is a year old but already I’m in love with all the native bees and butterflies that visit my yard!!! ❤️❤️

The Monarch butterflies spread the parasite to the plant, whether it's native or tropical. The tropical itself doesn't have the parasites until the butterflies bring it.

Very interesting video. I'm incorporating more natives into my yard here in Tampa. Also, I don't use pesticides or chemicals because I don't want to contribute to the pollution of our state.

This was great. What a gorgeous garden.

I do want to share that I have come across a patch of the threatened Spiranthes floridana in a ballfield. I fear they will soon be mowed however they seem quite tough. I have never seem them before, hoping to more often!

I am so glad to have found this! I have a hard time finding others in Palm Beach County & I would really like to learn all I can about all we can grow in our exact area. Thank y'all kindly!

Thank you so much! Great and needed information! 🌸🌸🌸

If YT kept to these educational, instructional videos. There would be more educated nature loving American citizens. Th🤝nk you for posting & educating us on invasive plant species. I dont agree with herbicides.

Thank you for this! Such good information. Appreciate you both. 🌸

some things i either missed or you didnt cover... are you using any liquid fertilizer as a foliage spray? or are you buying a specific thing? you said 3 times a year, but... when? like is this a spring summer fall thing? and finally you said early morning... can you do it in the evening instead? im up in zone 6 so not tropical

Hi Kate. Funny enough I don't see roaches in my compost. We certainly have them down here so I guess they are in there somewhere. I haven't noticed any extra roaches in my home as a result of composting outdoors and I make sure to throw my kitchen compost outside twice a day and never leave it overnight. Hope that helps.

What about roaches, I love to compost all my food scraps along with wood chips but I can't take the roaches so I stopped. I'm in central florida Kate

Great video. Loaded with so much fantastic information:)

Thank you! I used one of your earlier videos to change my garden this year. It’s smaller and has northern plants but I’m happy every time I walk by it. Thanks again for the update!

Update?

What is that quiet vehicle that you were touring in?

This is definitely true. I have seen this in the wild with sour oranges and tangerines in oak hammocks.

I've heard citrus does better in FL under oak trees (to avoid citrus greening disease) so I have mine planted there and they seem happy 😊

Lovely video, and the message at the end made me more motivated to continue with my food forest

haha! loved that she mentioning david the good, he is cool. Love the garden!
