Great teaching about the succession of blooming plants for native creatures. I appreciate the explanation of why Himalayan blackberries are a problem for native creatures.
Love this content! I realized I need more early blooming natives here in the Seattle area, especially because I host native mason bees. Indian plum is definitely one of my top plants. And I'm also on the search for beaked hazelnut, as I've heard it blooms as early as January!
Any trick to germinating Dicentra formosa? This seems to have spread itself throughout my mom's yard, so I collected a bunch of seeds and spread them all over mine, but only one germinated over a year later. It was a very healthy seedling but then it disappeared -- I think maybe eaten by something, it made me very sad. I'm trying a couple transplants now instead and hoping they work out.
Beautiful and thank you for your efforts
