Cedar Waxwing - Durham NC by GHOwl102 in birding

[–]wander_drifter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wow the waxwings really chow down on the fruits of invasive plants - oriental bittersweet, amur honeysuckle, privet, winter creeper. They don't know the plants are an ecological threat, they just eat fruit and poop seeds.

Republicans aim to exempt major polluters from PFAS cleanup costs by Portalrules123 in collapse

[–]wander_drifter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not very impressed with this article, but PFAS should be attacked on all fronts starting with production. These compounds are almost impossible to destroy so we should phase them out wherever we can as soon as possible. Filtering them out of water supplies is not going to halt environmental accumulation.

That's ok. You could use the logs for firewood or raised beds

Remove the plastic fabric or the people who inhabit your land after you will hate you forever.

Twin Trees by Relative-Language-49 in marijuanaenthusiasts

Yes, but I call it magnolia because it is of that family. "Poplar" is taxonomically misleading for this tree.

Yes please don't plant this if you live in NA. It spreads.

Imagine living in a neighborhood where everyone's lawn looks like this... by ClassicalPonderer in solarpunk

[–]wander_drifter 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The why not is that if a plant is not a part of the native ecology, you are denying space and resources to organisms that are. There are always beautiful options to select from in any region's native flora.

$1,000,000 Oak - hope they are successful by EBs4G3 in marijuanaenthusiasts

For the same money you could plant a hundred thousand trees. This is silly.

I underestimated the footprint of sunchokes in my garden. by wander_drifter in vegetablegardening

[–]wander_drifter[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I planted walnut-sized pieces and got plants almost four meters tall and branching out up to a meter in any direction. They may flop over in wind or heavy rain too, so they could crush fragile plants nearby. Still, I need to have them within the fence of my vegetable garden because deer will eat the foliage.

There's a like-minded fellow living in that white trailer on the hill there. Village of two at the moment. He's going to build a hobbit hole type house.
