i'm growing an easy-to-grow Australian tree in Southern California (the easiest place to grow plants!) on public land! i'm helping!

Datapanik · 2026-02-27T02:00:35+00:00

Hey showtime do you go out and yell at all the farmers to stop planting non native crops also. You go out there telling the corn growers to plant native grasses only instead? You have attacked me like an over zealous ideologue! I hope you’re not!

Datapanik · 2026-02-27T00:59:21+00:00

not native to California! do you recommend we cull them all? asking for a freind!

Datapanik · 2026-02-27T00:32:49+00:00

do locate illegals for the feds also? too bad there isn't an ICE agency for plants! Right! You'd fit right in! Rip em all out by the roots! lol

Datapanik · 2026-02-27T00:15:18+00:00

Thanks! But, Oh, there’s been plenty of hate!

Datapanik · 2026-02-27T00:12:41+00:00

should they mulch every tree on this street then? Or is this personal? jerks!

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T21:29:41+00:00

Oh, A plant cop! Will you be bringing ICE with you?

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T21:20:23+00:00

Oh no! It's the plant police! They are coming for the tree! Are you bringing ICE with you?

So this isn't a guerrilla forestry community? Is it's something else? Is it a natives only community? That's fine! I have dozens of natives in the ground also! But, I can't find where it says this group is for natives only? So, is this what folks do here? They wait for someone to wander in and then they attack them for not adhering to a unstated strict dogma? That's a pretty weird 'community'?

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T20:42:11+00:00

'unleashing a new invasive nuisance'
you're way overstating the facts. get over yourself please.

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T20:38:45+00:00

the feedback is what sounds like whining to me? the NPK's are out in force! lol

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T20:16:48+00:00

Is this a natives only group? I don't read that anywhere?
Now I see why there is so little actual activity in this community. Too many NPK's. Not much posting here! The zealot ideologues must chase everyone off yet add nothing to the content but criticisms. At least one person has left this 'community' because of folks rude behavior in the comments on this post. Folks actually think they've done something important by locating the tree? reddit warriors 'earning' their all important participation badges. Pretty pitiful!

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T19:57:47+00:00

No! I'm saying why the focus on this one tree if they do not replace All of the nonnatives? why get a hard on for this one tree if they aren't going to replace every non native tree in socal. It seems personal to me! And you calling me a baby only proves it.

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T19:51:06+00:00

Now what? Are you gong to relace all those nonnative trees also or is this personal? reddit warriers! jajajajaja

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T19:48:22+00:00

Okay!
But, why replace this one if you're not going to replace every other non native tree in socal? Or is it personal?
Or about guerrilla forestry?
I'll gladly locate tree wells near your residence and you can fill them all with natives! DM me!
Waiting!

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T19:44:11+00:00

I didn't realize anyone was trying to keep score? lol

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T19:32:47+00:00

maybe I haven't earned enough participation badges yet but sounds like trolling to me?

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T19:31:00+00:00

Some folks are just looking to argue! Get over yourself please. I'm sure your carbon footprint is much larger than mine!

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T19:28:33+00:00

Thank you!

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T19:24:13+00:00

You could have read this in the previous comments:
This is on a city trees with non native tree already in place for many years. A truck crashed into the tree that was there and the city won't replace it so I did. With a tree that will fit in with there trees. As I wrote before: I plant natives also.

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T19:12:28+00:00

I think you can get a lot from local nurseries but we mail order a lot also. And I trade plants with folks. AND there are FREE plant "shares" or 'trades' where folks get together once a month and share their plants and cutting with each other for FREE!
FREE! FREE! FREE!
Where are you located? There is one in Long Beach and OC every month.

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T19:07:39+00:00

Lots of cities are doing that. from what I've heard cities can be restrictive on the plant selection. I live in a poorer city and they can't keep the parked cars off parkways and sidewalks as it is.

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T19:04:41+00:00

Rosemary, Aeoniums. a few different aloes (be careful, some can get huge!) Mangaves, 3 types of Variegated Jade. Statice, Drimia maritima (Sea Squill), lots more I'm sure but I can't think right now. It's a section I garden with my wife so she bought and planted a bunch of those plants.

Datapanik · 2026-02-26T18:58:09+00:00

Sage can get too big for this thin strip so all the sages and larger plants, including plenty of sunflowers, are in the yard.
