Very interesting video. I'm incorporating more natives into my yard here in Tampa. Also, I don't use pesticides or chemicals because I don't want to contribute to the pollution of our state.

Hillsborough County has a very active Florida Native Plant Society chapter called Suncoast I believe. You might want to consider attending meetings or events for more information and education. 👍

My native Florida wild flower garden is a year old but already I’m in love with all the native bees and butterflies that visit my yard!!! ❤️❤️

I am so glad to have found this! I have a hard time finding others in Palm Beach County & I would really like to learn all I can about all we can grow in our exact area. Thank y'all kindly!

I do want to share that I have come across a patch of the threatened Spiranthes floridana in a ballfield. I fear they will soon be mowed however they seem quite tough. I have never seem them before, hoping to more often!

I'd also like to offer a set of hands, I can help in a garden all day in exchange for knowledge & cuttings hehe. In all seriousness, if either of you have any form of classes or meetups, please do point me to them! We are 5 years into growing out essentially shell rock & now I am in intensive learning mode to fill in the rest & as much as possible. Thank you again for sharing!

Do deer eat frog fruit?

The Monarch butterflies spread the parasite to the plant, whether it's native or tropical. The tropical itself doesn't have the parasites until the butterflies bring it.

But the problem with Tropical Milkweed, is that it doesn't have the normal winter die back, like our native milkweed. So it doesn't reset with the rest of them and continues to keep around the parasite through the winter into the next migration period. Although you can cut it back to the ground creating an artifical die back and getting the same effect.
