1 Na#ve Plants and Pollinators So what are we all doing here? Dan Jaffe, Propagator and Stock Bed Grower Dan Jaf 64 All lawns are bad, remove them completely! Non na>ve plants are the devil and must be destroyed! You are doomed for ever for having sprayed roundup on that na>ve poison ivy! Today is all about realis>c goals and expecta>ons Small steps which add up to large results 63 So what are we doing here today? So what can we really do? So what can we really do? SCALE means everything The Blackpoll warbler is a site specific species that lives in stunted northern spruce fir forests It is considered of special concern in MassachuseRs It needs a spruce/fir forest Plant more na>ves Kill your lawn Avoid chemicals Remove invasives Talk to your neighbors/ municipali>es Don t waste the good stuff
2 So what can we really do? Chemicals in the landscape There is great power in large numbers of people making small changes Chemicals in gardens? Pick the right plant in the first place If your area is sunny and dry, plant plants that prefer sunny dry condi>ons If your area doesn t have room for a large shrub, don t plant a large shrub If the soils are poor, plant plants that grow in poor soils If you need to water, prune, or fer>lize your plants a[er the first season you could have chosen a berer adapted plant Balance your goals with your desired maintenance level Compost and other good prac>ces Monarda didyma Senna hebecarpa What is Na#ve Anyway? Lawns Most defini>ons are based on a geographic area and >me line Are plants poli>cal? Ecoregions Pre- European serlement or Pre- human movement? Can humans be natural vectors? Na>ve based on ecological interac>ons Na>ve enough? Cul>vars? Purple Agastache Helianthus Symphyotrichum coneflower foeniculum, tuberosus, with novae- anise sunchoke crab spider Hydrangea angliaea and arborescens bumble purple bee dome Annabelle hyssop 59 So what can we do? Kill your lawn (or at least reduce it) Treat the le[over lawn well Water Nutrients Mowing techniques Pes>cides Lawn companions What are the weeds telling me? Lawn alterna>ves 58 2
3 Lawn Chemicals So what s the issue? 90 million pounds of herbicides applied to lawns and gardens annually ~2 Million pounds of fer>lizer run off into the gulf of Mexico annually The gulf dead zone expands to 7000 sq. miles at the peak of the summer ~9 billion gallons of water wasted every day Of 30 commonly used lawn pes>cides: 19 are carcinogens 13 are linked with birth defects 21 with reproduc>ve effects 15 are neurotoxic 26 with liver or kidney damage 27 are sensi>zers and/or irritants 11 have the poten>al to disrupt the endocrine (hormonal) system What if your lawn could look like this without any mowing, watering or fer#lizer? Mowed Unmowed 57 Pennsylvania sedge Carex pensylvanica Sun to shade, dry to moist Great for woodland or sunny lawns Rhizomatous Highly valuable for pollinators!
