Plants
These “Featured” native plants have matured and ready to relocate to the right place in a land steward’s cherished garden; a win-win-win situation. The plant can finally jettison confined quarters, the wildlife will come, and the gardener has a great native plant that will provide much joy.
The reason they are in their prime is their roots are mature and wanting to spread out into the native soil. Now is the beginning of a window where the days are shorter, the nights are cooler, and the warm, moist soil (irrigate if not consistently raining) invites the roots to seek out new soil microbiomes. They still need water – do not let the root balls dry out – until the eventual fall rains arrive, which will offer us some amnesia of the previously hot summer.
Note: The Featured list is in alphabetical order by botanical name.
