    I love your videos! You should make a video on the native Symphoricarpos species. They are pretty cool shrubs. I’m currently contemplating on planting S. occidentalis or S. orbiculatus, both of which are quite common and abundant in my area. Perhaps I should plant both!

      Can't go wrong with either of those! I actually have an idea for a video on this very subject!

    Thank you for sharing! I unfortunately picked an Annabelle cultivar earlier this year when I started working on adding native plants. I plan on adding a wild type or two and making a cluster of hydrangeas to provide for pollinators next year!!

    Based on your recommendation I recently planted 2 Dwarf Chinkapin Oak trees in my southern NJ front yard. I ordered them from Nebraska (Great Plains Nursery) and I couldn't believe how healthy they looked after their long trip! They are the cutest things ever and I can't wait til they start producing acorns!! Hope they thrive. Thanks!!

      I don't want to be "that guy.". So, I have to apologize, in advance.
      But, unless I was mistaken, he was speaking of the Chestnut variety, not the Oak. They are much more rare. And, they're the ones that need the most help to balance a given ecosystem.
      Oaks are good, too. I just don't think that was what he was speaking of.
      Maybe I missed a video?
      If you do find a place that sells the Chestnut variety, please do inform us all. I would hop on that.
      Thanks,
      JJ

    I was hoping to learn about Hydrangea barbara, its been hard to find.
    Ive been considering it as a component of replacement plants for english ivy in a shady spot under big ole trees along a fence and low wall.

    • @BackyardEcology
      @BackyardEcology  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Climbing hydrangea is a beautiful native vine and would make a great replacement for English ivy. It does like moisture so keep that in mind. I didn't put it on the video as I was trying to stick with the shrubs and climbing hydrangea keeps getting moved between the genus Hydrangea and Decumaria.

    I'm picking up my hydrangea arborescens today from the wild ones native plant sale. The shrubs and trees are usually delivered in the spring, but this year, they decided on the autumn..... and it's supposed to freeze at night here in central IL in a couple of days. ARGH!! I've been searching for this hydrangea for years; no one ever seems to sell the straight species. I want my hydrangea to be the centerpiece of my front yard. What can I do to help it thrive when it's being planted so late in the year? Thank you!

    • @BackyardEcology

      Fall is actually the best time to plant container grown trees, shrubs and perennial plants. the roots continue to grow slowly even when the top is dormant. They will grow until the ground temps get into the 40s. This allows the plants to get established and do better once spring gets here. Check out this video for an in depth look at fall planting: th-cam.com/video/v_TY_SDrv4w/w-d-xo.html
