What about being careful to not bury the crown of the plant? 2nd, I have been taught here in California to not disturb the root ball unless it is a bit pot-bound, in which case we carefully scratch the surface, not cut into it. 3rd, we are taught to save as much topsoil as possible when removing grass. Do these principles not apply in Indiana? You forgot to mention which way is North here but I assume you want to line up the tall plants East to West so they do not shade the smaller ones - I am assuming all sun-loving plants. I have purchased a 17+ acre homestead and will only plant natives and appreciate anything I can find on this topic. Thank goodness for UA-cam and thank you for posting this video. And thank you Indiana for passing that law against the sale of invasives! Finally, just one of us at a time, we may have the chance to save the world because we must Bring Nature Home: there is no place left for it otherwise.
