Curious where you live that they're invasive? I'm in Tucson, and have just planted a dozen or so from seed. Maybe they'll grow, maybe not, I'm not 100% sure what they want (seems to me... they like the north side of things? And prefer to sprout in spring, but also whenever?) But they belong here, and I've never seen them more than about 3ft by 3ft?

2024-03-11 19:33:17 +0000 UTCOh Joey, how we love you so. I'm volunteering to restore a plot of urban forest in my neck of the woods and this winter had the pleasure of planting an assortment of species beneficial to insects, birds, and other wildlife (BTW you motivated me to go denser with your Kill Your Lawn videos!). Rainy, 38 degree days with just a Raven and Coyote overseeing my work. It was awesome! The whole process motivated me to learn about soil ecology, local geology, and I've been researching so many local herbaceous plants I never knew about. Last week's thrill was spreading native meadow wildflower seeds. So curious to see how everything grows and how that can inform next winter's planting season. And St. Francis is an all right dude as far as the catholics go.

2024-03-11 02:55:43 +0000 UTCI've literally just got into this and, despite Midwest winter, the random warm days have brought a lot of stuff up to look at. While doing that I realized there was a ton of other smaller stuff to look at that I'd never really looked at before. It's been a blast. There's so much more to see still (I've also been checking out the local parks to get ideas for tearing up my back yard). Thanks for what you (and asclepias prostrata) do.
