Saving Monarchs: A Joint Effort in Rebuilding Habitat for Pollinators
Переглядів 1,6 тис.2 місяці тому
Pollinators like the Monarch butterfly have been an icon of the insect world, now due to habitat loss their population is threatened. All is not lost, however, thanks to conservation groups like Monarch Joint Venture (MJV) Wendy Caldwell explains what we can do to help deter the extinction of the Monarch and our other crucial pollinators. Join the collective to report about monarchs in your are...

Restoring native prairie, one small square at a time
Wish I'd seen this video a few years ago before starting my backyard prairie. Great presentation!
My first year planting Black-Eyed Susan that I grew from seed- it’s beautiful and is long-blooming during the summer. Will definitely be a staple in my pollinator garden from now on!
Wild Bergamot is wonderful. I always wish that it bloomed for longer!
Needed this planting native prairie in Brainerd
stigmatic slits got me actin' unwise
Easy to grow too as long as it has sunlight and is well watered... At least in my area
We need state initiatives to create incentives for cities, towns and counties to create more habitat for our native pollinators including pollinator gardens.
R f k is trying to save the environment. Maybe he has a plan like that
The Lawns to Legumes grant does that! $400 stipend to plant native pollinator plants in MN!
I just added Butterfly Milkweed plants to my pollinator garden this year, several of which were small plants that I grew from seed, with two others being large, beautiful, and blooming plants obtained from a nursery. I was happy to see the plants being sold locally as I hadn’t recalled seeing them around before. The nursery has increased their native plant section- yea!
I love my butterfly weed- they really are beautiful. I do worry about it eventually taking over my entire garden though! 😅 I just keep pulling up as many new shoots as possible to try to keep it under control
It's great to see the footage of not just the bees, but the native plants which support them! One takeaway for me from this video is what Echinacea purpurea looks like! Also, nice footage of a male green sweat bee at 2:03

Excellent speaker and presentation! For this UA-cam viewer, the interruptions from the “expert” woman were frustrating (let the man handle this himself, for goodness sakes!) but this is one of the best talks on the importance of native plants I’ve seen. Kudos!
love your reading voice
So it was actually farmers that decimated bees population
Great in-depth look at pollinating bees!!
This is awesome. Love this video so much
Why do yall have a giraffe? That's not enough space for her.
They have gardens at the MN zoo, as was mentioned multiple times through the talk. 😉
We do not have a giraffe! Just bison and sheep.
Thank you for this video! Such helpful info. I started my prairie garden 3 years ago and this spring has been such FUN so far! Sooo much is thriving that was teeny-tiny last year… and there are even some things coming up for the first time 😍 It’s nice to be reminded that these things take time. Happy Spring! 🙏🏼
If I’m cutting down to 6” the first year how do any wildflowers get established next year as I would think there wasn’t time to develop and drop them.
Flowers and plants keep growing no matter what. In fact, when you cut them the energy goes into the roots because you cut the flower off. Then it grows back. You ever cut a tree down and all of a sudden there is a bunch of suckers that shoot out? That’s from all the energy since you removed the tree.
@@user-wq5ws1qs7x but don’t all the plants I don’t want come back too? I’m asking because I have a large area I’d like to convert to native wildflowers and native plants but there are lots of none natives and undesirable plants there now.
What a heartwarming simple video. Thank you!
Very inspiring, thank you for sharing!
inspiring
Time!
Incredible video! Love it. Powerful way to inspire change.
This is awesome! Can't believe I'm seeing this for the first time, what a great idea!
This was excellent. Inspired! Wish I owned more land so I could do a full reconstruction rather than just native gardens.
Democrats gave billions to war not the environment. Stop getting brainwashed. ❤
Cute video, I wish my prairie planted itself. 🤣❤️

So awesome
Thanks for the info! Didn't realize that milkweed leaves are so toxic to most species and how it benefits the Monarch Caterpillar!
Pheasants forever bought a farm next to my acreage that I want to build on. The wildflowers and grasses that their smells give off in the middle of summer are unbelievable. Bees, all I hear all day is buzzzzzzz. Last year the monarchs returned, I hadn’t seen the migration come through for over a decade.
Utterly amazing to see so many
This is so cool! Just ordered my shade kit, I am so excited. Thank you for what you do!
Parks Canada planted a bunch of praire strips along the Trent Severn Waterway, but did no maintenance and they are now 40-80% weeds. I can't stress how important maintenance is to prevent this! Great video and very concise and accurate ❤️
Yes, some areas have really high wind pressure
Funny do you mention the seeds need days of cold-stratification? I wonder where thisvwas
Thank you! Great information.
Great video MNL ☀️☀️👍
Great video! Thanks for the info!
Absolutely beautiful! 🦋🦋
thanks for the hand seeding recommendation.
Awesome vid
Great video!
Fantastic job with this video!
This is so cool.
