    Wisteria in Sydney is sooo invasive! We have vines pop up everywhere, from underground! They’re pretty but they’re a pain. Though I do throw the leaves into the compost.

    Fabas are very used here in Spain: Lupins too. The twoo are very Nitrogen fixer: but lupins are toxic unless treated. White lupin is called in Spanish "Alteamuz" and if you boil seeds 2 hours and then let them rest 48 houra with salt: delicious

      Fava beans can also be toxic when raw seed is eaten in excess or if you have a G6PD deficiency.

    Great video thanks but i have a question : the lagumes while they are alive and consuming the nitrogen from the air can feed the next plants and in the same time can fix the soil , or after the decomposition of the lagume can feed the soil and fix it with nitrogen?

      I wish there was something like Amazon for seeds and small plants. Then again, Amazon doesn't deliver to Switzerland... (seems to be over a toll dispute, but also because a lot of things available on Amazon are illegal in either the EU, or Switzerland and this includes toys, laserpointers, plants...)

    Wisteria seeds and pods are very toxic. The flowers are edible in moderation, but all parts of the plant contain glycoside, so don't eat too many.

    You seem to be missing that when Wisteria and autumn olive drop their leaves, that's feeding nitrogen back into the soil. It isn't exclusively from their roots. And as Odie points out, Autumn Olive may well be classified as an invasive species in many places. IMO the idea of "invasive species" is misguided - WE are the invasive species, where do we get off blaming other species that we brought with us that took advantage of disturbance we created, for being successful? Nevertheless, you could find that autumn olive, and a number of other potentially really useful plants, are illegal for you to grow in your location.
