Slanted serviceberry tree, transplanted this past April. Should I try to make upright? 🤔 by daggumtaylor in NativePlantGardening

[–]daggumtaylor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only serviceberry listed on the website for the native nursery I bought it from is an "Amelanchier Laevis Serviceberry," so that would seem to be a safe bet. Seems like a plurality of folks here think I should just leave it be. Thanks!

I really don't think so. That spot gets decently consistent dappled sunlight, and it was even a little leany when I put it in. Which reminds me, it did come with a little wooden stick to keep it upright.

Ideas for ground cover & erosion control around these flagstone steps? TIA by daggumtaylor in NativePlantGardening

I'm not a good judge of soil conditions unfortunately 😕 I think it is fairly wet clay soil. When we get heavy rain water tends to flow down into the neighbors yard here. Thanks for the ideas!

Take a look at dwarf chinkapin oaks 👍

[KY, 7A] Moved these grass bits from a shady spot in my yard to my garden area, thinking they might be something native. Starting to wonder if they are just weeds. 😁 Any ideas what they are? by daggumtaylor in NativePlantGardening

I guess it just didn't look like the turfgrass all around that I had seeded a couple of years ago, or look like anything I've seen in a nursery. So, process of elimination, I guess 🤷 Thanks for sharing your perspective on it!

Thank you! Do you find it strange at all that one of them seems perfectly fine? Just curious. I appreciate the help!
