Drake is such an inspiration! 🦋.
I have a trip to SA in a few weeks. The Nectar Bar is now on the itinerary. Thank-you for the great native/host plant information!
You go, girl....🙂
Wow! So much quality information. And Ms Drake is a charming representative for native plants, butterflies, and her Nectar Bar.
I lived in Texas for almost 15 years and loved the Hill Country.
I now live in Utah but am constantly suprised and inspired by the variety and stunning home and yards as well as the information provided by the channel!!
Keep on keeping on!
So great to hear from you! Thank you for being on team CTG! Utah is super great, so would love to see your pictures for CTG!
Very good video on native plants. I have been researching in my area to get started (Abilene area)
Have you checked out Dr. Doug Tallamy and his Homegrown National Park program? No doubt there are members near you who can help with plants and ideas.
How wonderful (and exciting!). I looked to see if there is a chapter of the Native Plant Society in your area: I bet there is. I did find this link to native plants, many of which we feature on CTG. acu.edu/about/sustainability/pollinator-plants/
Very informative! I already have a native monarch garden but I had no idea about the flame acanthus being so useful to butterflies ❤
Oh, it is one of my favorites for SO many butterflies and hummingbirds. Plus, it really is drought tough as Drake says. They go dormant in winter, so I clip pretty heavily in February or so.
Long live The Nectar Bar 🙌🏼
can yall do a video on propagating Snake Herb?
Great idea! Basically, just dig some up (get the roots) and transplant it. Not now!!! I also wouldn't do it as we near freezing temps, since young plants may not make it through a hard freeze, depending on your microclimate. To be super safe, I'd do it after the last frost (March or so), so that it can establish before getting hot. Again, depends on where you live.
When are the nectar bar open?
If on Instagram, find them there!
