1 My MIL says ppl she dog-sits for are asking where they can get some of the Hibiscus moscheutos (Swamp Rosemallow) that I planted there. Tell them to take seeds! I'd rather they grew my wild-type seeds, but this gets 'em growing our lone Northern mallow. 0 comments · 11h ago · by Eli's Native Plants #bloomscrolling#ecoregion59#nativeplants
0 Woolly Beach-heather (Hudsonia tomentosa) looks like 6" (15cm) tall junipers. I loved seeing the little plants holding the dunes together at Crane Beach, in MA. They are in the Cistaceae—the rock-rose family, which is mostly sub-tropical woody plants. 0 comments · 11h ago · by Eli's Native Plants #ecoregion59#nativeplants
5 Pitch Pines (Pinus resinosa) at Crane Beach in MA. Leaves needle-like in bundles of 3 (2 for Red, 5 for White Pine), are thick and stiff like Red Pine. They are adapted to fire, and do well with sand, salt, and coastal disturbance. 0 comments · 1d ago · by Eli's Native Plants #beaches#coastalflats#ecoregion59
