Thanks for not keeping this behind a pay wall, I appreciate it.
We should really try and promote this sort of thing as much as possible, its amazing that sensational nonsense is prevailing over the love of nature, which would solve a great many of our problems, to my belief.
I am alarmed about just how many plant breeders are going towards "pollenless" plant varieties, at least in sunflowers. I think almost half of the sunflower vareties in one seed catalog boasted that their variety was pollenless. So, perhaps an added cautionary note about plant sources may be important! Thanks for this session, which I have gotten halfway thru so far. I am adding some local keystone plants to my garden this spring.
Good choice, we need to re-define urban landscaping with a solarpunk concept in mind. Where there is a brick wall, there could be a planter running atop the entire length. Just one idea that would beautify everywhere and create small nature highways in all directions. It would be divided into sections of a meter or so, interchangeable, so when a tree starts growing in one or something, a local government employee takes the planter away to be planted elsewhere.
Where i live the gov pays people to cut all the plants as the main growing season begins, turning pretty little prairies into bare grass (and probably spraying it with chemicals) It makes me sick that one would do something like that really
Had to work this morning, so missed this live. Thanks so much for posting!
Glad to see the recording is up already! I had planned to watch live and ended up with an appointment. So glad I can watch Heather Holm from the beginning of the webinar!
Heather is so knowledgeable! Love her presentations. I unfortunately missed this live one so am very thankful it was available as a recording. Probably have to watch it a couple of times as there is a ton of great information packet into it.
Love these webinars.. thank-you Denise and Heather 🐝🐝
Thank you so much for posting!
Thank you for posting this.
Very useful information. I just started changing my garden perennials over to prairie natives this summer. Learning about bees is fascinating. Thanks very much Heather and Denise, from a gardener in Saskatchewan.
Great choice! Lets destroy the ideal of landscaping, it is a war on nature baisically, people shoold pay gardeners and landscapers to encourage wildlife, not relegate it to oblivion
Thank you for wonderful information.
Thank you for the information, it was very helpful!
Great practical information
Some of the soft landing plants were poison ivy. Which is native and good for birds, I hate it tho. Do you recommend leaving it. Keeps people from trampling on the soft landing area (lol)
Thanks so much . Wonderful informatio.
Wonderful webinar. Does anyone know why the graphic around leaving stems says not to cut flowers off the stalks until spring? Why not cut the dried flowers off in the fall so the stalks are all ready to go in the spring? In other words is there a reason to leave the flowers on over the winter? Just curious.
The dried flowers can hold seeds, which can be a source of food for pollinators.
