Hi Frank. I took your advice. About daisy fleabane. Awsome teacher. I have a bunch in my yard. And I transplanted it there. I also transplanted lemon balm. And it's doing good. And mowing I've been eating dead nettles. It taste good. I learned that from you. God bless your student Jeff. 😊
I've seen these cute little flowers show up in my yard for a few years now, but I didn't know what they were called, and nor did I know how to search for them online. Once I tried to uproot one, and replant it in my flowerbed, but it didn't survive. Today, I did a Google search for daisy, and a photo of fleabane also popped up. Your video also showed up on Google search results, so I decided to click on it and watch it. It was most informative. Thank you for doing this short video!
My grandson and I love looking up weeds and learn how to use them. My favorite color is lavender; makes sense. We noticed the fleabane this spring growing near our apartment complex mostly because of their lavender color. Im glad I found your channel.
I have a licensed day care and also, I am a Waystation for Monarchs. I care for young children up to five years old. After that, they come to visit. We have talked about pollinators and how important is to leave all the first flowers for them. Especially the dandelions. I always get these little white flowers in my yard, but this year (2023 in Baltimore, Maryland), my yard was full of them. It was gorgeous! The children (girls and boys) were cutting bouquets for their parents, at the end of each day. Later in the Spring, I pulled them, except for the ones that still had blooms. Oh, my goodness! The one left is still blooming and my sister--in-law told me what it was. And here I am. Doing research and finding this awesome video about this amazing plant. I am ready to share with all the parents and friends. The one left looks amazing among my cone flowers. The girls started immediately trying to make bouquets. I had to let them, but it STILL has some flowers. You can imagine what will happen next year, if I didn't uproot them all. Now, alter knowing all of this, I need them, I want them, I can't leave without them!
Laughing that is awesome! I never pull them up either...SMH ..the things people consider weeds! Glad you discovered this and my channel! Check out my playlists...got lots more for curious kids...and adults!
Hi Frank im rewatching becaues its so informative info. I love your video. You might not hear fom me in the near future. Im going to be away welding bat caves. Across Pennsylvania. I absolutely love working for the citizens of Pennsylvania and especially Pennsylvania wildlife. God has been very good to me. . I have 15 years for the game commission. And it seems like 2 years. I see God's creations almost every day. And it is good. God bless teacher. Your friend Jeff. 😊😊
Have fun welding bat cave entrances! I think I mentioned I arranged/coordinate a gate here on a local cave ...more to protect the cave for the preservation of native peoples burial site. Many graves in the cave! I hope you find wifi service out their on your travels.
Loved the video! My daughters and I found this plant in our backyard, and we really liked learning more about it. We're going to keep going into our backyard to find more types of plants and animals.
That is awesome! It is amazing how many species are in ones yard and their amazing histories and uses. Keep in touch! seen me questions any time...and be sure to check out my plant and wooldland wildflowers play lists.
Thank you for saying hello to us at the park today and telling us about your channel! We live in a very special place! Thank you for doing a video on one of my favorite flowers.
Ha! Too awesome...one of my early videos when I was still learning to present and edit but same good content! I hope you will check out my more recent videos and i promise I will do more on what you will find on the way to your mailbox! Appreciate your comment!!!
I have so much fleabane have been looking up what I can do with it. Thanks for the video. I did sub. I believe the pink hued ones are the PA type. They are both used the same. Apparently this is good for ulcerative colitis and ibs. Still on the hunt. Glad you are finding and enjoying a passion 💖 like many 😁
Thank you CJD! APPRECIATE your taking time to comment and share with this community! This was one of my very first videos...i hope you will check out some of my newer ones! More on plants in your yard! Agree on the pinkish ones!
I watched your purple dead nettle video this morning, and I have tons of that. Now, I'm watching a vid where you're talking fleabane, and I have a bit less of that! living with these "weeds" doesn't bother me a bit. I love things natural.
I found this in my flowerbed but I feel like I can't use it because I put down wedd killer. Maybe bees and butterflies will find it useful and hopefully the weed killer isn't harmful to them. I wish I hadn't of used it
Thank you Castle of Costa Mesa! I am planning to do more videos focused on spring wildflowers as they appear! Thanks for checking out my channel and taking time to comment!
9CloudRachel so kind of you to say! One of my very early works into this new cyber adventure! Co out some I may recent videos and let me know if you a see an improvement in the product!
Thanks! One of my early efforts. I was good content but I think my recent video are much better delivery and video and editing! I am new at this! Thanks for kind words and encouragment!
Thanks! one of my early share before I really learned how to put together a video...i,hope you will check out my recent videos on violets..chickweed ..bittercress and more! Thanks for supportive comment!
I am still learning all this media stuff ..i think you can email me through my web page www.natureatyourdoor.com and you can post photos on my Nature at Your Door Facebook page on "visitor posts"! Give it a try!
Btw! Serena Diane...thank you for your enthusiastic and kind comments. Sure I can be every ones "pops". This was one of my first videos...i hope you will check out my newer ones. I also hope this spring to do more plant focused episodes like this one.
sorry you said it had sooo many uses...well ,i was waiting to hear about them...more about the uses and edibilility .and interesting info rather than a long video about the latin name etc etc..i found it very unimformative and long..jus some constructive critism there
Hi Mike Brodie. Thanks for taking time to comment. My channel is more about introducing children and families to discover things outdoors and find out some plants we call weeds have names and histories etc. Agreed. I am not a practicing herbalist or forager but a 35 year veteran science teacher. I encourage people more interested in edibility and medicinal uses to go onto channels with creators with that experience. This was one of my first attempts to engage viewers on RU-vid. I hope you might check out my latest videos on yellow rocket...violets...Colts foot ..ground ivy and more and let me know if content/quality/value have improved! But...ha! Keep in mind my goals and audience! Glad you are out there looking to learn more about natural products! Appreciate your observations!
i guess i was thirsty for some medicinal and edibility knowledge ..i thought it was more about the plant itself than the latin eriginonsense boredomarius lol thats all..was looking for that meat and substance ..lol sorry for the negative nancy comment..you seem like a good guy and nice to see the encouragement to the young people
Ha! Thanjs Mike! ...ha! and for me MY FAVORITE! I love breaking down the Greek and Latin names of scientific naming! No worries! I celebrate diversity in interests and what individuals want to learn!
