More #BloomScrolling ! Today we have #WoodlandPinkroot #Spigelia_marilandica a favorite of hummingbirds which seems to be flowering unusually late. #ObedientPlant #Physostegia_virginiana a #NativePlant to me with a resemblance to snapdragons. And finally that #AppalachianBugbane #Actaea_rubifolia has an enthusiastic pollinator despite its lack of nectar β guess this bumblebee okay with only chowing down on pollen.

More babbling about the newly-purchased land: my first big project is to absolutely load the property to all four corners with all the locally-endemic native plants I can. I'm serious enough about it that I'm going to make a spreadsheet. I would love tips about what plants are best in Pelorus Sound and appropriate sources. I've found some useful online places already.
Also rabbit/possum proofing!

Looking for a Michigan native plant, low profile shrub (two feet or less) with spreading habit, for a full sun location.
Plants I considered: Cranberry Cotoneaster. I love the look and the berry color in winter, but it's not native. Another plant I looked at: Emerald Carpet Spreading Yew. I don't want a juniper.
Any other recommendations?

This picture is of our 5β10 year old native St. Johnβs wort shrub in our #NativePlant Southeast #Minnesota garden. My hypothesis is that these shrubs donβt bloom much until middle age.
@straphanger Here in #CobbCounty in the #Atlanta area I just got handed a code enforcement violation for a stand of native mountain mint I planted in my yard that attracts a whole metropolis of bees. I intend to fight it, but it's a pain.
Here's one of the many articles I've written about the mint over the past few years. #bees #pollinators #NativePlant

Found some patches of #wild #berries to #forage & eat while walking around the bush. These are #salmonberries & trailing #blackberries (trailing variety is #NativePlant to #VancouverIsland - coastal #BritishColumbia area).

This milkweed patch in the gardens smells absolutely amazing! Not to mention the glorious amount of life coming to and going from this patch!
So many different creatures all enjoying the same thing

Never in a million years did I think my #nativePlant #garden would be on a tour, but here we aren!
I've been cautious about pulling anything in my relatively new wildflower garden. I'm still not sure what might be a weed.
So far this season, blue flax is the only flowering plant.
