Really like your content. I too am crazy about pollinators and birds. Slowly but surely I am transforming my gardens into a happy medium of native plants mixed with non-native. I recently moved to PA so I’ve been learning how to adjust to the seasons. I have the most amazing variety of creatures I have ever seen on this land. Can’t wait to see what is to be found next year. P.S my neighbors must think I’m this crazy lady who moved in because I’m constantly out videoing the visitors in the gardens. 😂
Thank you! Glad you are enjoying the content. My neighbors think I am crazy for not constantly mowing the fields on our farm so I know what you are saying.
@@BackyardEcology Yeah, I'd love to hear if you notice different timing this year than last year. I noticed the caterpillars showed up at least a month later this year in my garden than they did last year!
Super pumped to see the video for purple passion vine, I'm very excited to try to acquire some for my garden eventually! It's so unusual looking it almost feels too good to be true as a native option!
Great description Anthony. My husband lets our passion flower vines grow up to the gutters. The vine is firmly established here! He harvests the fruit, removes the seeds and drinks the nectar, really. It has been difficult to dig up the vine to transplant it or share with others. thanks Shannon and Anthony~!
Thank you! Passionflower can have a big root system so it is often easiest to dig up the smallest root sprouts. It might take them a bit to get back into the swing of growing after being placed in a pot so they can get some size on them before planting them out in another location, but they are a fairly resilient plant.
Hi, They actually do grow even into zone six. It is best to mulch them in, though. (Just in case.) To my knowledge, the reason they are called "Maypop" is because the plant grows really quickly from seemingly nothing in the month of May here. So, they "pop" out of the ground in May. Now, I won't claim any expertise. But, I've understood it as such since the seventies. Who knows where the name was actually coined? But, that's always been the Swamp Yankee explanation for it. And, it makes perfect sense for here.😊 Best, JJ
Many native plants will grow outside of their native range, but when planted in such a place they are no longer native. While we often think of invasive plants as being from some other continent, there are cases where plants from North America have become problems in other parts of North America. One example is common milkweed which is now becoming a problem outside of its native range in some states. Caution must be exercised when planting things in places they are not native too as problems can arise from it. I've always heard the maypop story I put in the video - but there are probably other versions of it. We don't really see passion vine up and growing well until mid summer here in KY.
@@BackyardEcology With the way the climate is changing, things are shifting about a lot, too. I'm not too worried about May pops here. They don't spread. I've had my original plant for decades. And, there have never been new ones, anywhere. So, we're good. 👍 Now... Canadian geese and coy-wolves, that's another issue, entirely. Keep being metal,😄🎸👍 JJ
That he is. He has a story about eating Amanita pantherina (panther caps) that is interesting and terrifying, and a little funny too...@@MegaBlackLobster

I had no idea that these were native plants. They look amazing and I would love to get some visits from humming birds.
They are super cool vines - and a ton of pollinator species love them too!
I have these in my backyard and absolutely LOVE the increase in pollinators I've seen in my yard since I've planted them
Pollinators love them!
Another gem!!!
Thank you!

One of my favorite plants! I took pics of the caterpillars on mine just this morning. Love gulf fritillaries.
It is an awesome flower! I need to get out and look for caterpillars. There are usually several on the vines around the house.
@@BackyardEcology Yeah, I'd love to hear if you notice different timing this year than last year. I noticed the caterpillars showed up at least a month later this year in my garden than they did last year!
I usually see them around this time in September. @@awildapproach

The flowers look almost alien. Super cool plant to have in the yard, and the pollinators love it!

I thought you were paul stamits for a sec. Great info! 👍 ❤
Thanks! I wish I knew mushrooms like he does! Watch a lot of his stuff and have several of his books.
@BackyardEcology I too wish I had his knowledge 🤣 he's an interesting dude.
That he is. He has a story about eating Amanita pantherina (panther caps) that is interesting and terrifying, and a little funny too...@@MegaBlackLobster
I’ve got about a half dozen vines in my backyard. They’re almost 12 feet tall.
Nice!
@@BackyardEcology hey Anthony, how much land do you two have?
40ish acres. @@davehendricks4824
@@BackyardEcology nice!!!
Nice video, but you may want to double-check how to pronounce fritillary :D
Around where I am at everyone pronounces it like I said in the video, may not be the correct way, just the way I have always heard it.
