Rearranged my native plants and put them out in the sunlight so they hopefully all start growing better. I definitely screwed up the numbering system, entire numbers have been skipped and some are duplicates. That'll be something to fix next year. #Zone9A #Mississippi

Ranunculus bed in the foreground with a lot of foliage and one very tightly closed bud. More garden beds in the background, including one in the far back with yellow daffodils.

Sand blackberry (Rubus cuneifolius) or any other aggressive blackberry or dewberry as a control of cogon grass? It appears to be severely choking out cogon in areas while still allowing natives to grow fine. #HabitatRestoration #InvasiveSpecies #NativeSpecies #WarOnCogon #Zone9A #Mississippi

Sebania drummondii, aka rattlebush, a plant for champions. One of our native legumes, these plants grow massive and produce yellow flowers and eventually lots of very toxic beans. Excellent for wildlife and nitrogen fixing. #Mississippi #Zone9A #NativePlants

Vaccinium arboreum vs Vaccinium elliotti. Size and season is the dead giveaway. Arboreum = huge tree with fall fruit, Elliotti = small shrub with winter/spring fruit. #Blueberry #Edible #NativePlant #Zone9A #Mississippi #NativeSpecies #Colorful
