25:00 is it possible the persimmon is actually like the paw paw in that is not actually dioecious but are dichogamy producing male and female flowers at the different times

10:17 Lourdes, do Amsonia tabernaemontana leaves turn purple or yellow in the fall? I bought mine at Mt. Cuba Center in early October, planted right away and it turned reddish purple in about a month with colder temperatures. It still has leaves on and looking good. When I looked it up - they say leaves turn yellow…

Great idea to have Dr. Tallamy present in the gardens - as many of his lectures I listened to, this one really stands out. Thank you Lourdes and Dr. Tallamy for spreading your passion - making it contagious! Setting two goals for the near future: have another pond and reduce the size of my lawn even more. ~Happy Planting Everyone~

15:49 Love Joe Pye. I have straight species Eupatorium purpureum and it’s a massive 6 ft tall plant - makes my neighbors very nervous. They asked me twice ( I think they forgot that they’ve asked me last year already) if I know what is growing in my yard… 😅😆

Can't wait for spring! :) 🌿

I planted coral honeysuckle last year, and this year I saw a clear wing moth all over my persimmon going crazy for the broken fruit. I forgot it was a host plant until you said it. Always learning things from you!

For the northern state of Idaho i don't think some of these grow here,ido have golden rode growing in my backyard.

Heartbreaking!

Love your show. I learn so much from you.

Oh my gosh! What an incredible info filled video! FANTASTIC 👍🏻

@nativeplantchannel you took the words right out of my mouth in the beginning of your video of why you are planting a Serviceberry🥰 Today is planting day! Zone 4a now was just moved out of zone 4b...and they say global warming is fake🤥 I am also planting a pagoda dogwood in the backyard.

Thank you for sharing this.

Our coral honeysuckle also gets birds nests in it. Thank you.

I am in Texas, how can I register my yard for conservation?

Thank you for this video! Great information!!

If there’s a reason why the husband should be thought of as having so much more comparative expertise (e.g., he worked in finance for 30 years, etc.), this should be stated at the beginning of the video. That way the audience understands the presentation style of the video. Otherwise, as it is here (and in other videos of yours I’ve seen), the video leaves the audience with the impression of repulsive paternalistic overtones as well as the complementary misogynistic moments one would expect sprinkled in here and there. And this is a shame, cuz other than this, I really do enjoy you guys’s channel and what you’re doing here.

Can I grow the various varieties together? Also how many do I need to establish a clump like you shared?

How is the serviceberry doing now? I’m interested to know how much taller it is three years later.

What type of bee is a Honey Bee? Thank you

I rake up the keaves in my grassy front yard and carry them around to my backyard which is mostly native plants.

My next-door neighbors spray for mosquitoes twice a month. The spray (administered along my fence) comes into my yard and i see very few butterflies any more. I'm still getting lightning bugs, so far.

When he says to plant densely, does that mean closer than what they recommend? Most of the plants I have been using are a foot to 2 feet apart. Should I plant closer than that?

Thank you!! Very helpful!

Great video and very helpful info

Asters and Goldenrod are some of my favorite flowers

So true. I keep splitting my Aster plants after they bloom, from one small plant bought years ago i now have a huge bed of purple flowers that keep getting fuller every year. One of the best purchases i've made. Plus the bees love it! Especially small tiny wild bees. And you've convinced me with your good explanation of goldenrods! I will be planting a wreath golden rod this fall!

Does the Botanical Gardens sell any of their plants? If so, when is a good season to come by.Thanks Peter in the Belgrades.

This is great

What shade providing tree would one plant 10 feet from septic tank?

I have had beautiful water lilies in my 20' x 20' pond for years. Two weeks ago I had beautiful lilies, then algae...we are going through a severe drought...Today there are NO lilies. I see the white stems under water, but no pads and no lilies. Do you think they declined due to the drought? Or the slime green algae? The water went from heavy algae cover to very little and clear water...but no lilies...I've never witnessed this in 23 years of gardening. Any thoughts? PS..I heard your talk at Forest Hills and have since been so much more mindful of the ecosystem, biodiversity, and sharing what I have learned. Thank you for your constant inspiration. Fran

Are these plants native to canada also?

Thank you Dr. Johnson and Lourdes- very informative! I often go to Longwood & the meadow is my favorite garden…. I even love to trudge the paths in snow in winter- very meditative 😊

Thanks so much! Beautiful garden and this is so helpful! Is the goldenrod pictured solidago speciosa or wreath goldenrod? It looked more like fireworks in its zig zag shape or another variety so was wondering. Also, would you be able to share the name of the pine/spruce tree thats behind the blue lobelia, goldenrod, and brown-eyed susan? Thank you!

Unfortunately, most people aren't good stewards of the earth. They have to have their little plots of green yards, fertilized and sprayed with pesticides, ad nauseum. It's truly sickening. Even after you explain it to them, they don't change anything.

the person on the left at the beginning of the video just staring at the ground!!!!lol

One thing I’d recommend to keep further expanding your audience of people buying into this idea is to talk about the benefits to game birds and animals that people like to hunt! Planting these native plants and reestablishing these ecosystems has gigantic benefits for ducks, geese, turkeys, pheasants, deer, elk, etc! Hunters time and time again nowadays are the once sinking the largest amount of time and money into improving their land and they own a lot of land and can affect changes on larger scale 50, 150, 500+ acre chunks at a time! Honestly that’s the main reason I initially started a big wildflower meadow on my property until I began to learn about all the other benefits

Thank you

thank you

Love this channel

Thank you Lourdes! Ever since learning about mountain mint and anise hyssop from your channel they have become my favorite wildflowers in my garden!

Good info! Thanks.

Thank you Dr. Tallamy for all of your work and educating us on the importance of natives. It is fascinating and I am incorporating all of this information as I plan my landscaping.

I’m surprised to find that I have so many of these good, good plants, and even an oak tree, in my yard already, I was naturally drawn to them. My mailbox area is loaded with happiness for all these animals. I’m just wondering if this movement ties in with the globalists’ goal of getting rid of suburbs altogether and moving humans into tiny concentrated areas. I’m not liking that AT ALL.

I live the quote- lawns are area rugs- not wall to wall carpet :)

winter sow is a great way to get perinnials started.

Lourdes, a perfect name for such an inspirational spirit as yours! Thank you for the encouraging ideas for native planting in containers!!

Really enjoyed this. I recently planted my first blue indigo. It’s doing great so I ordered a white one. Thank you.

What was the product that you mentioned to repel mosquitos? I tried listening to a few times but not clear Thanks

Thoughts on American Bittersweet? Google has many different opinions. Long, vining plant with beautiful small purple flowers that have a yellow center. In the fall they develop bright red berries that tend to last into the winter. Grows upright unless there’s nothing to grow up and then it makes a dense mat on the ground. So if that’s a good enough description please tell me….friend or foe?
