[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I enjoyed this article, especially the premise that suppression is more realistic and the importance of introducing North American natives as climate changes. This makes sense. Now, I need to figure out what southern and western natives might do well in these increasingly hot summers.[/quote] I also find it helpful to focus on the most harmful invasives rather than worrying about removing all the invasives in my yard. For example, hosta and liriope - not helpful to our ecosystem; but not top of the priority list, either. This helps me focus on the easier, quicker, more effective areas of the yard to work on - rather than ripping out an entire area of liriope, for example, I can replace that still-young butterfly bush with a New Jersey tea. Or forget about pulling every pokeweek because it's at least native and plant new natives.[/quote]
