- We usually think of incorporating native plants into the local landscape as being an automatic good thing. Some of these native plants, however, can be quite poisonous, and a few - even deadly. White Snakeroot, or Ageratina altissima, is no exception. In this video I discuss some of the pros and cons related to this plant to determine if this is a good plant for the landscape.
I have a bunch of this! It’s October and snakeroot is blooming. It’s beautiful and the bees love it. I love watching the insects of all kinds on this beauty, very soothing and just something lovely about it.
It is a very gorgeous plant, indeed. We can appreciate its beauty and its ecological benefits while also being humbled by other aspects of its personality.
Snakeroot they could never make me hate you
Yes, it seems to be a really awesome plant to be respected
I'm so glad this popped up in my recommendations! What a great, laid-back way of conveying information. I loveeee snakeroot, it's one of the few natives that can withstand extreme urban environs like NYC. :^)

Hi!! Which plant for bunnies eat that can also help them heal from wounds? I have a baby bunny that has huge raw spots, I’m assuming it escaped an attack by a hawk or dog, but I feel so bad. It eats my potato leaves and I’m looking for another herb or plant it would eat in my yard that would also help the bunny heal.
I would definitely recommend looking elsewhere to find those answers, as I am not a veterinarian and have no expertise in this field. I can say that I have observed the rabbits in my area consuming a variety of plants in my area both wild and cultivated including but not limited to ryegrass, sorghum, dandelions, clover, peas, beans, sunchokes, cauliflower, and lettuce etc.
Well first off, your bunny shouldn't be eating *any* part of the potato plant, it's all poisonous! The only not poisonous part of the plant is the actual potato, and that's still unhealthy for rabbits.
