During Joe's portion, he noted that the SLR attributed to GIA and sediment compaction are natural and not related to anthropomorphic sources. My understanding is that GIA is occurring as the ice sheets melt (which is natural as we left the last ice age but is speeding up due to human-related warming of the planet) and sediment compaction is at least somewhat driven by groundwater withdrawal by humans so I am not clear on why those are not anthro-driven. Thanks for any clarification on that!
Beautiful garden! This is exactly what I am trying to do to our front lawn. Will definitely be looking at these two plants for groundcover. Thanks! A tour of your garden would be great to see!
Hi Bill and Carol, Great vid! I have the barrel and a sazall so I'm gonna put the holes in it and fittings. I've been using a bucket to empty barrel, it's a back bracker when you get to bottom. I now know famous people, hooray!
interesting that you encourage the use of reusable bags when the protocol in supermarkets has been to suspend the use of them, for the time being, during Covid 19.
Allison Kashon - we’ll find out for you from the experts at the southeastern chapter of the NJ Native Plant Society @ southeast@npsnj.org. Another great resource for native plant info: Jersey Friendly Yards www.jerseyyards.org/ Thanks!
The native viburnums in the video are all under story shrubs and as such play a vital role in creating a layered landscape - and providing leaf food for caterpillars, berries for birds and other wildlife, shelter, cover, and nesting sites.So, I would let them grow as large as the space accommodates. These shrubs - and most others as well - can also be trimmed as needed to fit a smaller space.
