I just scrolled down your comments here, and every one is saying what I was going to say: NO ONE ever talks about weeds except to say, "spray them" or "pull them". What a TREAT to have you list so many of these plants that we all see daily, and not only give names, but other characteristics, too. So many of us see them and ask ourselves what we are dealing with, where did it come from, etc. You could definitely do another of these videos and we would EAT IT UP!
Yes, please!
Great video! Thank you. Passion vines are also host plants to the Gulf Fritillary, Variegated Fritillary and Zebra Heliconian
Thank you! I saved this because it is the BEST FL gardening video on weed ID I’ve ever seen. Usable info and easily identifiable pictures and descriptions. 👏🏻
In my humble opinion, one of your best videos ever. "They're just weeds.". It's what almost everyone thinks. But they're not. Spurge! Been dying to know the name of that one. Awesome to see someone addressing the detailed side of the less glamorous "everyday plants". I learned so much from this video that I've been Wanting to know.
Once, we found an oak growing up through the hedge that was so big, we decided to plant it in the middle of the front yard as a tree. It's now a real tree, complete with a swing hanging from it.
Asiatic dayflower flowers are so yummy. The little 'peas' are sweet. There's a recipe for creamed dayflower peas on the internet, but you'd have to have the patience of a saint to collect them all. This plant isn't invasive in my area, which is east central Florida. In fact, I'd love it if it grew more. I ate bitter melon last night. It was cooked with eggplant and fish and served over rice. It's really common in Asian cooking.
Thanks for such a comprehensive presentation. Brazilian Pepper is the just the absolute worst to get rid of.
I’m always conflicted about Brazilian pepper because although it’s invasive it also makes the best honey ever and I raise bees. I always rip it out but some people in my neighborhood have huge pepper bushes so thanks for sacrificing your yards guys!
Great video! Have lived in SE Florida my whole life and am very familiar with those weeds, but never knew the name of most of them. I’ve never seen a video on weeds before, and I really enjoyed learning more about them.
Wow! I have never seen Firebush this big!!! Excellent video! You are such a good teacher!
I plan to reference this video when my HOA sends me notices about my "weeds" 😂
I’m new to your channel so maybe you do these videos throughout the year…but just wanted to let you know I found thus video SO helpful! We moved to a new house in FL and there are SO MANY different plants growing on our property due to the previous owners planting lots of bird and butterfly attracting plants. This helped me recognize a lot of them!
Once, we had some of the purple dayflower (purple wandering jew, oysterplant) and I wasn't even trying to eradicate it, just thin it, and I threw some over my shoulder into the lawn, and it rooted there and survived multiple mowings.
I hurt myself trying to pull out one the oaks! I thought it was a small one till I watched this channel 🤦🏻♀️
In the Bahamas we call bitter melon (cerasee) it is a great medicine we boil the leaves and drink as a tea (if you can handle the taste)
In southeast Asia, the bittermelon weed is a favorite for soups and stews. Also, the green fruit is commonly used for salads and dishes (they just call them wild bittermelon). The ripe fruit is listed poisonous but birds loved eating them.
You covered a lot of what is found everywhere in zone 10 Florida. I especially was glad to hear if I cut the carrotwood, when its just not coming out without much effort, then that will keep it in control. And Florida you need control or a lawn and I don't want a lawn. Thanks
Excellent video!! Please do another with more plant weeds!
So I have been calling Bidens Alba spider fangs because I always thought of them as spider fangs and the fact that wasn't far off is funny. It's all over my back too.
Call me crazy, but I really like spurge. I use it in my veg garden. I use it as ground cover. I also put it in my pots for the trailing effect.
The bitter lemon plant is a staple in my yard. I use it for teas. If your having tummy ache and gas it is perfect for that. I rather use it ,than some drug in the store.
I love all natural teas mint, lemon grass , ginger etc . They are so much better than the processed stuff used for teas. Challenge yourself for 30 days and eliminate say coffee in the mornings and see how your stomach feels.
I’ll have to look up bitter lemon 🍋 I don’t drink coffee ☕️ The smell used to weird me out. Now I’m ok with the smell but member drank it.
Do you mean bitter melon, not bitter lemon? 🤔
The Bitter Melon, the fruit is edible, excellent for parasites, grow way more bigger in others countries and latitudes, like the size of a cucumber, well is a cucurbitaceae after all, besides the difference of the fruit in size is the same specie, it just grow more bigger, how cool is that!
@@sandyinflorida99Bitter Lemon And Bitter Melon are the same thing
Biden’s is Spanish needle. Beggars tick is the one with little Velcro seeds. Biden’s flowers taste like carots and the young leaves are a good substitute for Italian parsley.
Best info ever!!
We have noticed the Brazilian pepper popping up all over our neighborhood ..
Thank you ☺️ 🥰☺️
Just moved to FL in the spring and felt so lucky to find sunshine mimosa in my sod. I transplanted it, watered it, waited all summer for a pink puff to bloom.
No pink puffs showed up, figured out I have been taking care of shyleaf this whole time. Cute plant, but shows that ID-ing can be tricky. Thanks for the video.
I love this! I’m always poking around asking “is this a weed?!?!” And then google to see if it is.
Wood sorrel! I have both kinds all over! The little one is so sticky and annoying, but now that I know it’s native I might let it be in some spots. 😊
This was great! I've lived in Florida my entire life and knew very few of the plants you showed in the video. Thank you for this information 🍀😁
Thank you! Great job!
After watching dozens of videos to try to identify a weed that I’ve had my gardens for years, I finally found it in this video and it’s the cucamelon. They started spreading in my yard after I brought some horse manure home for my vegetable garden and I think there were a few weed seeds in it. I think the chipmunks and maybe birds spread it all over the place. I think I found it before and read the fruits were edible, but I’m not a big cucumber fan.
One thing about cutting oaks that are firmly established, is to cut them off BELOW the crown (where the root meets the stem, or trunk) of the plant. Once you do this, it won’t grow back.
You’re welcome Alan! That’s a great tip about the oaks
Yeah those tiny little flowers that were yellow we used to get those in Chicago and you could eat those cuz they were like a little clover with a flower on them and they're really the really tasty
Great start to Florida weed identification I need to keep video handy as I walk the yard. Thanks
Great informative video, ty. The frog fruit used to grow wild on our beach dunes, when we had dunes, on the east coast of Florida when I was growing up.
Keep in mind the Firebush is toxic to dogs, all parts of it. I wanted one but left it at the nursery due to this. But birds to love it. Fellow Floridian here still living on the East Coast. 😊
Wood sorrel is also shamrock. I love to see it in the Spring. Then, it dies as it gets too hot.
Good Morning ☀️
Good Morning ☀️😄
I love Bidens alba! I let it grow in little islands with my porterweed and just prune it when it starts looking too weedy. We always have bees and butterflies all over it and it looks nice (to me at least, I like the wild cottage garden sort of look).
I add wood sorrel to my pestos. Delicious! Thanks for all the info, chicky!
Glad I found you! Where have you been all these years? Your tour refreshed my memory on those vines I currently am trying to control, Bitter Melon and the wild cucumber, though both are beneficial. Have been looking up weeds in my yard for a year now. I have so many of your named plants, and more!
So excited to try gardening in Florida again. Thank you so much for your inspiration and sharing what you have learned ♡
Yay!!! Florida Gardening is great! I’m excited for you 😄
Thank you so much. I love your videos. Do you edit your videos yourself too? You and David the good are my favorite ❤️ I am so thankful for all the awesome gardening advice and ideas and knowledge you all share on here.
Asiatic dayflower is edible. Also, always heard that bidens alba tea is good for a sore throat and just made some for mine yesterday and the pain was gone within a half hour! Super medicinal.
This is a great series you have
I love over in Lakeland so this is so helpful!!
Thank you
I live in Central Florida. Currently trying to fix the long neglected landscaping in my parents yard..while it has all kinds of weeds the absolute bane of my existence is Cherry Laurel. There was a bush in a small 20 x 20 ft area by the porch in the the front yard. That bush managed an invasive root system EVERYWHERE in that portion. I pulled up at least 50 ft worth of hard cordy roots and I'm still not finished! It's also in the back yard. :(
I’ve been there. It’s the worst!
My wife and I love your channel and are so thankfull for your content! We're in zone 8. Which zone are you?
A Brazilian Pepper took over my Bougainville plant- Ian took care of it, but despite being cut back, it’s trying to resprout! I am allergic so it’s a big no for my yard! This was a very helpful video! I think I’ve had all of these “weeds”!
They have deep roots. I looked at some work for Brazilian Pepper mitigation and they scraped to bedrock as a mechanical method to remove. You may need to take a chemical route to kill it properly. I would check with the UF extension office. UF is doing a bunch of research on how to kill Brazilian pepper
@@WildFloridian thanks! I will check with UF!👍🏻
Oh my gosh I have been pulling up all these little baby firebushes....now I will try transplanting one. But I'm struggling with potato vine...which you didn't show and that silly string stuff!
Thank you for the video, super informative. And thank you for giving a name to our mutual nemesis, Asiatic day flower. It's like that thing doesn't give up! That and bitter melons, yuck!!
Ohhhh, I’m so allergic to Virginia Creeper! I didn’t know that until I tried to remove it in my back garden!
Virginia Creeper & Bitter Melon have taking me 20-years to rid in my yard. So annoying but bit by bit I am getting to the very root of them. Or so I thought, never knew the birds were spreading these two! Love your videos, just found your channel! This is particularly helpful, I always wonder if it is a "good" or "bad" weed. Thank you!
Coral Ardisia, Ardisia crenata, is the Brazilian Pepper of North Florida
I am so glad to hear that fire bush takes a good pruning. We recently had a new roof put on and the crew trampled my newly planted fire bush 😔. I pruned it down and am crossing my fingers!
You are so funny. & How do you know so much ? &How or who did you learn all this from?
Years of picking weeds and staring at plants and then googling to find the name
@@WildFloridian lol that's awesome. I do that too but my memory isn't so good.
Had bitter melon growing over the Brazilian peppers that literally took over half my yard. After we took out the peppers (needed a chain saw) we still have the bitter melon popping up in the yard. I do think we are finnally getting a handle on it though.
Oh my goodness... that is the worst. I'm so happy you've made progress.
I have a plant that comes back every year that looks almost identical to the native fire bush... But, it is purple.
I'm going to try to Google lens it today.
I found another youtuber that is located down near you. I'll have to go back and see if I can find her TH-cam name. Although I really enjoy all the knowledge that you both share and it is really helpful, I wish I could find a youtuber that is knowledgeable like you, but is in NE Florida. ✌👍🌿 okay I went and looked " the urban harvest..." is the name of her channel.
I buy seeds from her😊
I love your videos! I always get inspired to get out into my garden. 🤗
Yay Ray! Im all about gardening motivation 👩🌾 🦩 Happy gardening this weekend
Thank you
You are welcome!
I KNEW you were going to mention Brazilian pepper 😂. It is terrible
I also find that my oak tree roots will sprout if they are shallow.
I love my bidens alba. They look like little daisies. I let it take over part of my back yard and made some paths through them. I love sitting back there 🌼💕
Oh wow!!! Have I learned a lot today😱
This is making my head spin and go outside to start applying everything you said here. Now I know the name of the "things" I've been pulling out of my garden. Thank you so much Jackie! ♥️🍀🌿🥰👍
(Did you get my email yet?)
Super big help with these ubiquitous weeds. Now I know the proper names to call them as I yank them out instead of the unprintable names I’ve been calling them!
Cogongrass and velvetleaf.
This was super informative, thank you!
Just planted a butterfly garden, Milkweed, Butterfly weed, Coreopsis, Mexican Heather, and have two Monarch Chrysallides. Also had a monarch chrysalis that hatched during Hurricane Ian, so we named him Ian.
I am binge watching you I’m in jacksonville and I have had such a problem with weeds in my garden! It is a full time job.
Another very edifying video. Thank you. Going out with torches and lopers to look for these invaders in my yard.
A good "invader" has been a beautiful American Beautyberry that a bird must have donated at the edge of my yard, and was a lovely surprise when the 10+ ft shrub got covered with lovely berries this fall.
I have a big oak tree that I asked a arborist to remove and they said it is protected and couldn’t remove. Now after the storm huge parts of our oak tree landed on our house that destroyed our roof of the house that was only 2 years old
Oh no! That is terrible 😞
OMG! That’s terrible!!
If you are ever in this situation again, contact your insurance to provide you with a letter, then go to the county and pull a permit for removal of the tree. You must do it as a homeowner.
You are my favorite person right now for making this video! Thank you!
Wow, thank you!
SWFL I have native Portulaca pilosa/ pink purslane ( flower actually purple) I wish it was my whole yard, it pops up in landscape and yard of weeds
As a new Floridian, this was very helpful :) Ty!
Yay! I’m so glad that was helpful.
Palms are definitely a weed in my backyard 😄 They love to grow up against the fence and sides of the house.
in missiuri we have wild growing onions they are very invasive and not much kills them
Thank you for this video! I was trying to figure out what I had popping up in my flower beds. Walked around after watching this. Sure enough, day flower. Not only that, I have a huge patch of baby biter melon growing that I thought was grass! Your videos are helping me so much!
My tell for Brazilian Pepper is if you crush the leaf it will smell like turpentine.
Great video. I'd like to plant more native Florida flowering plants......but I've got an invasive very aggressive vine growing along the ground. Don't know what it is but it chokes out all the other plants I try to grow. About every 5-10 inches it lays down additional roots. I live in north Florida.
Thank you so much for this video!!! Needed help identifying all the "weeds" on my property. Trying to keep anything native
You’re awesome!!!
Amazing video, next one should be on trees!
Thank you so much for this video! Needed help with the identification. BTW know u said your not a fan but that native wood sorrel is also edible and like actually good! Taste like lemon!
Good video. What you call sorrel we know as oxalis. I have both the pink and yellow here. I am a bit north of you and one of our worst plants is Smilax. If it has redeeming value I don't know, but it is nearly impossible to deal with.
Thanks! I subscribed love your channel!!
Bitter melon killed my pineland Lantana and I’ve hated it ever since, the leaves are good for tea but the tea is so bitter that I hate that too 😂
I really really enjoyed this video! Of course, I have most of these in my yard but didn't know what they were now I do. I will watch this video again and take notes. You really have a great teaching style and I love seeing the plants in your yard in the different stages. Have you done or considered doing a video on trees or native trees in Florida? I've gotten books on trees, but the pictures are from a distance, and it doesn't help me identify them.
Thank you for all of the great information. God Bless.
We took out one of the Brazilian peppers out of our yard! We found out that it’s killing our birds, so it had to go!
I grow cucamelon on purpose, I had no idea people just had them in their lawns.
Awesome video! Very helpful!
Great video
thank you for your knowledge.
Great video!
Good stuff! Thx 4 sharing!
I love this video, thanks! Learned a lot! Bitter malon is the worse! Took yiears to control, but my neighbhors don't and climbs up trees and fruit falls on ours!
Awesome video! Thank you very much.
I was at a Biodiversity Festival here in Orlando, FL and there was a group (no name) giving out Biden's Alba seeds, I though it was somewhat funny people taking it home and planting it to realized it is a "weed" that they are always trying to get rid of. Flowers are edible too, but I would not plant it 🤣! I like cooking purslane in coconut curries with my sweet potatoes leaves.
So useful thanks!
Very informative. I live in Polk County. My yard is one big " weed haven", which I like and don't like. I want to keep my yard as natural as possible. So, my
challenge will go on. By the way, what do you think of creeping sage?? I got them everywhere and I know they are going to stay here forever. And I like them and
I don't like them.Thank you so much!! Keep up the good work!
I tried to grow bitter melon and it grew one year but not the next. 😢
We love cooking bitter melon curry. It’s really good for you. If it’s the bitter melon we grown in the subcontinent. The leaves look the same. The fruit has to be cooked. 😋
😱 thank you for putting this together. I’m probably still going to be terrified of Virginia creeper fearing it’s poison ivy though 😅
Terrific video! Being a new to Florida gardener this was so helpful!!!
I have a big carrotwood that will be impossible to remove. I'm so bummed about the dang thing. I did see some local parakeets land in it the other day for the first time so i guess there's that!
Cuca-melon, Melothria pendula, is native.
Virginia creeper breaks me out like poison ivy does so be careful! 😊🎃 just got the bitter melon in our yard this year, thanks for sharing info.
pouzelbush is the unnamed hated with a vengeance plant I think
What an awesome video. I thank you for all this information.
