Please help me ID 3 plants in my yard
Comments (6)Thanks everyone! I looked at a pic of Lonicera fragrantissima and I think the 2nd shrub is that, flowers look identical. Sorry for the lack of photo of the flower, I took a couple but they came out really blurry. Esh, thank you for the info on the native Trillium. We have cleared about 1/4 acre ivy from the property (without chemicals, just by pulling and digging!) - although not in this area - and I'm keen to include a lot of natives as we plant....See MoreCan someone please help me ID'ing these 3 plants?
Comments (5)Thank you very much for the ID's. The first one is near the spot where I saw the bad-looking P. mugo subsp. rotunda about which I asked an ID too. At first I though they were both the same species because they looked similar, but when I went too look closer then I could see the cones were definitely different. Funny part is that someone else suggested in that thread where I asked for an ID that it could be P. thunbergii. So I guess both trees are similar looking indeed. The second one I think comes from a hedge close-by that was (I think) never trimmed and therefore started producing cones. The third one is almost a miracle to me. Closest Abies koreana that I'm aware of is at least a few hundred meters away from where I found it. I'm very glad I dug it out too because A. koreana was also on my wanted list. :)...See More3 IDs please & photo of Kiwi Full Monty from Hallson's
Comments (8)Just have to say that I grow just a few hostas in the roots of Silver Maples.My front yard has 5 maples.You will find that some hostas do just fine and other will not.All will grow slower then if they were not planted in the roots.And Kiwi Full Monty is one of them and is doing just fine.I do keep the area water good and use alot of compost and fertilze.I will say I planted the first few areas without knowning any better..hehe.But what was I suppost to do,cut down 5 monster trees.Might have been a good idea,cause boy what a mess silvers make over the winter and even though the rest of the year.But anyway the point of this is just to say yes it can be done for those that have maples trees. Sorry the picture is so dark.But give you an idea of the area.There isn't a spot any where in there that isn't ROOTS....See MorePlease help ID 3 OGR
