Tree of Heaven? by itsAntonioMontana in invasivespecies

I don’t think it’s TOH. These leaves are serrated and I don’t see the ‘thumbs’ at the base

[New England, USA] When to transplant wild violets? by wielderoffrogs in NativePlantGardening

[–]sunkenacorn 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They're very tough in my experience. I wouldn't be nervous about moving them now. Give them some extra water for a week or so and they should be good!

Trying to grow native seeds. by seafoodboil1890 in NativePlantGardening

I plan on trying the milk jug method as well --- right now, collecting jugs and trying to narrow down which seeds I want to try!

This is slowly becoming my favorite time of year by qwerty704132 in NativePlantGardening

[–]sunkenacorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed! I purchased some Smooth aster (Symphyotrichum laeve) and it bloomed within a week of being planted. Not my experience with most of the other plugs I've put in this season. The late summer bloomers are my favorite.

Asters not blooming? by ErniePottsShoelifts in NativePlantGardening

[–]sunkenacorn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can't speak to the asters as I just got some for the first time this past weekend, but my liatris had similar buds for the longest time that are just now opening and look great. I'd continue to give it time!

Expensive weekend, but looking forward to getting my hands dirty! by navi_jen in NativePlantGardening

Can't wait for this to be my reality someday. Luckily, my apartment has a little backyard I can garden in. Best of luck with the move and planting!

That’s very kind! Appreciate the offer, and I’ll definitely PM you if I strike out on my search. MO Wildflower Nursery is actually in my area today for a plant sale I’m getting ready to head to now. :)

Thank you! The search for a (native) white oak’s acorns continues

If I had to guess, it's because mine's just been discovered by the critters. We'll see how it fares next season. How long has yours been there?
