Just Give Us Some Native Milkweed! Native Plants vs the Horticulture Industry
Update: 2022-11-28
Description
This episode is more or less a recording of a blog post I wrote a few weeks ago regarding the stark divide in native plant media versus what is available for sale in the nursery industry. A summary of the issues...The Issues at Hand
- A diverse and locally native plant landscape for the home gardener is not easily within reach to the majority of home gardeners.
- Nursery stock to create a diverse home landscape for gardeners on the scale touted by native plant enthusiasts doesn’t exist and is consistently unsupported by the horticulture industry.
- Most homeowners will never delve into gardening, native or otherwise.
- Gardeners should be intensely focusing on preserving large, existing tracts of undeveloped land within the suburban/urban/wildland interfaces to counteract the shortcomings of native plant home landscapes.
